Yamaha CL3 Digital Mixing Console

The pursuit of perfection is ongoing and will probably never end, but along the way Yamaha has introduced a number of innovations that have become industry standards offering performance and familiarity that discerning users continue to demand. By definition, “standards” are best kept as they are. With evolutionary refinements, of course.

Yamaha CL series digital mixing consoles represent a new level of refinement. They offer an evolved experience in accessible mixing, plus sonic purity with sound shaping capabilities that will give the most imaginative engineer unprecedented creative freedom. The CL series embodies the leading standards in live sound in their most advanced, most expressive form.

Features:

• Support for AES67 interoperability standard allowing communication with Ravenna, Q-LAN, Livewire and other audio networks, for significantly improved system expandability
• The Dante Device Lock feature that prevents unwanted changes to Dante settings is also supported, enhancing system security in halls and installations that are routinely used by outside operators or operators who bring their own equipment
• The number of supported Shure wireless receivers has also increased. Version 4.1 additionally supports non-Dante devices including the AXT400, QLXD4 and ULXD4. Control and monitoring are supported for all devices, plus transmitter gain control for the AXT400
• Other new features include one-operation EQ type selection, improved RTA visibility and patch window effect type and channel name displays
• Mounting and patching of the Audinate Dante-MY16-AUD2 mini-YGDAI card and d&b Audiotechnik DS10 Audio Network Bridge are also supported
