The World’s Most Popular Digital Consoles Gain Even More Production Power and Versatility from April 2008.

Introduction

Yamaha digital mixing consoles are established standards in the professional audio field. They have become the first choice of discerning audio professionals worldwide because of their unsurpassed audio quality, superior versatility, outstanding reliability, and advanced monitoring capabilities. The new VCM models - DM1000 VCM, 02R96 VCM, and 01V96 VCM - now join the current DM2000 VCM in providing a new dimension of production power with the addition of a formidable array of state-of-the-art processing technologies. Depending on the console you choose you’ll have extraordinary recreations of classic compression and EQ units from the 70’s, simulations of legendary analog open-reel tape decks, a complete suite of unmatched REV-X reverb effects, a surround postproduction package that is second to none, and even a selection of vintage stomp boxes to spice up your mixes right at your fingertips. There’s no longer any need to patch in external processors when special processing requirements arise. The technology that has made all of this possible is some of the most advanced in the world, and the sound is simply superb. In short, some of the world’s most popular digital production consoles just got a lot more powerful. The effects pre-installed in each of the VCM series consoles are shown in the chart below. Effects listed as “Optional” can be purchased as add-ons.

Feature

VCM Technology
VCM technology is responsible for the classic compressor, EQ, analog tape deck, and stompbox effect simulations in the DM/0 VCM Series.

VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling) technology actually models the characteristics of analog circuitry - right down to the last resistor and capacitor. VCM technology goes well beyond simply analyzing and modeling electronic components and emulating the sound of old equipment. It's capable of capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, while actually creating ideal examples of sought-after vintage gear.

iSSP Technology
iSSP technology is the key to the incredible selection of surround post-production effects.

iSSP stands for "Interactive Spatial Sound Processing," and is Yamaha's original new spatial sound effect system. Designed through extensive research and exhaustive testing, this technology offers unparalleled reality, operability and originality for surround processing applications. It delivers unprecedented sound-field positioning precision and versatility, as well as realistic sound source movement effects with simple operation that allows simulations of an almost unlimited variety of spatial environments.

REV-X

"REV-X" is the advanced algorithm behind Yamaha's newest generation of reverb and ambience programs, offering unprecedented reverberation depth and realism with smooth decay. REV-X technology takes full advantage of the 24-bit 96-kHz processing capability of the DM/0 VCM Series for reverb and ambience effects that have the reassuring warmth and reality of natural acoustic environments.
