Yamaha M7CL - 32 & 48
January 2008
Digital mixing consoles are certainly not new, but the evolution toward a truly intuitive, easy-to-use interface has been long and at times fraught with growing pains. If you've been delaying a move to digital because of interface or operational issues, the wait is over. The Yamaha M7CL Digital Mixing Console offers professional digital console performance and features for live sound in a 32 or 48-channel system that can actually be easier to use than a conventional analog console. It sounds great, too. This is one digital mixing console that lets you concentrate on sound without being overwhelmed by the technology.
The M7CL Editor application for Windows operating systems gives you off-line programming access to all console parameters. You can set up and edit console parameters anywhere you can use your personal computer - in the office, on the road, in your hotel. A comprehensive graphical interface makes locating and editing parameters easy, and you can download setups from the computer to the console either by directly connecting the computer to the console via an Ethernet cable, or by saving the data to a USB memory stick that can then be plugged into the console's USB port. You can even control the console from the computer in real time while connected via Ethernet.
