Yamaha's no-charge update elevates the industry-standard mixing systems to the next level, providing enhanced convenience and sought-after new features.
In addition to support for more Dante devices, the V5.0 update adds to the consoles’ ever-growing arsenal of tools, Yamaha Professional Audio reports. The in-demand Portico 5045 Primary Source Enhancer by Rupert Neve Designs is now available in the Premium Rack. This device makes it easy to control background noise from microphone sources while enhancing clarity and increasing feedback margin, and is a valuable tool for houses of worship, stadiums, performance halls, and any other venue where feedback must be carefully controlled.
"... Version 5.0 update not only adds new functionality, but through close collaboration with third parties ... provides connectivity with more Dante devices.” Marc Lopez, Director of Marketing, Commercial Audio Products, Yamaha
Individual Fade Time functionality allows different fade times to be set for each fader, an important feature for users who need complex fader control, especially for musicals and other theatrical applications. Dante devices newly supported by V5.0 include Rupert Neve Designs RMP-D8 8-Channel Remote Control Dante Mic Pre, Sennheiser EM6000 Digital Wireless Receiver, Shure AD4D and AD4Q Axient Digital Wireless Receiver, and the NEXO DTD Digital TD Controller. Future updates will provide support for other Dante devices.
“Yamaha CL and QL console updates continually contribute to a wide range of applications such as live music, corporate events, broadcast, and theater,” states Marc Lopez, director of marketing, Commercial Audio products. “And now, the Version 5.0 update not only adds new functionality, but through close collaboration with third parties ... provides connectivity with more Dante devices.”
V5.0 for the Yamaha and CL and QL Digital Audio Consoles is available via download here.
