Yamaha DM3

Yamaha DM3 Hire in Ibiza

Hire the Yamaha DM3 in Ibiza for live performances, corporate events, conferences, weddings, streaming and professional audio productions.

The DM3 is a compact digital mixing console that combines professional processing, Dante audio networking, multitrack USB recording and fast touchscreen operation in a highly portable format.

It is particularly suitable for productions that need more routing and control than a compact analogue mixer without requiring a large-format console.

Compact Professional Digital Mixer

The Yamaha DM3 provides 16 mono input channels, one stereo input channel and two stereo effects returns.

Its mixing architecture includes:

• Six mix buses
• Two effects buses
• Two matrix buses
• One stereo master bus
• One cue bus

This makes the console suitable for front-of-house sound, stage monitoring, distributed audio, recording and streaming applications.

Sixteen Local Microphone and Line Inputs

The console includes 16 local microphone and line inputs.

These are arranged as:

• Twelve XLR microphone or line inputs
• Four XLR/TRS combination inputs

The inputs can be used for:

• Vocal microphones
• Wireless microphone receivers
• Instruments
• DI boxes
• Playback systems
• Presentation computers
• Video equipment
• DJ mixers
• Corporate audio sources
• Small live bands

The DM3 also provides eight local XLR analogue outputs for master, monitor, matrix and auxiliary signals.

Dante Audio Networking

The Yamaha DM3 includes 16 Dante input channels and 16 Dante output channels through primary and secondary etherCON connections.

Dante allows professional multichannel audio to travel over a compatible Ethernet network.

This makes it possible to connect the console to equipment such as:

• Yamaha Tio1608-D stage boxes
• Dante-enabled amplifiers
• Digital audio interfaces
• Recording computers
• Broadcast systems
• Installed audio networks
• Additional compatible mixing consoles

The primary and secondary ports can support redundant Dante network configurations.

Dante is included only on the DM3 model. The DM3 Standard does not provide Dante connectivity.

Yamaha Tio1608-D Compatibility

The DM3 can be combined with a Yamaha Tio1608-D or Tio1608-D2 stage box.

This provides remote microphone inputs and analogue outputs close to the stage while the mixer remains at front of house.

A Dante stage-box configuration reduces the amount of analogue multicore cabling required between the stage and control position.

It is particularly useful for:

• Live bands
• Corporate stages
• Conference rooms
• Theatre productions
• Remote sound positions
• Temporary event installations

Nine-Inch Multi-Touch Display

The Yamaha DM3 includes a 9-inch multi-touch screen.

The interface provides direct access to:

• Channel processing
• Routing
• Effects
• Sends
• Output buses
• Scene memories
• Patching
• Metering
• Recording
• System configuration

A dedicated Touch and Turn rotary encoder allows parameters selected on the screen to be adjusted physically.

This creates a fast workflow for engineers already familiar with modern Yamaha digital consoles.

Motorised Fader Surface

The DM3 includes nine motorised faders:

• Eight channel faders
• One master fader

The faders follow the selected layer, allowing the operator to control input channels, mix buses, matrices and outputs from the same compact surface.

Motorised recall ensures that fader positions update automatically when changing layers or loading a stored scene.

96 kHz Audio Processing

The Yamaha DM3 supports operation at both 48 kHz and 96 kHz.

Its 96 kHz mode provides professional sound quality for live reinforcement, recording and broadcast applications.

Yamaha specifies a signal delay of less than 1.3 ms from local input to analogue output when operating at 96 kHz.

The console is therefore suitable for productions that require compact size without sacrificing professional digital processing.

Complete Channel Processing

Input channels provide the essential processing tools required for professional live sound.

Available processing includes:

• Input gain
• Phantom power
• High-pass filter
• Gate
• Compressor
• Parametric equalisation
• Channel delay
• Digital routing
• Pan and level control
• Sends to mixes and effects

Output buses also provide equalisation, dynamics and delay functions for managing loudspeakers, monitors and event zones.

Integrated Digital Effects

The Yamaha DM3 includes two internal multi-effects processors.

A total of 18 effect types is available, including high-quality Yamaha reverbs and other processing suitable for speech, vocals and instruments.

Available applications include:

• Vocal reverb
• Instrument reverb
• Delay
• Modulation effects
• Room simulation
• Special effects

Internal processing reduces the need for an external effects rack.

Graphic Equalisation

Graphic EQ is available on the six mix buses and stereo master channel.

This is useful for:

• Stage monitor correction
• Main PA tuning
• Feedback control
• Speech-system optimisation
• Venue-response adjustment

The graphic equaliser can be operated through the touchscreen or assigned controls.

Multitrack USB Audio

The Yamaha DM3 provides an 18-input and 18-output USB audio interface.

When connected to a compatible computer, it can be used for:

• Multitrack recording
• Virtual soundchecks
• Live streaming
• Studio recording
• Computer playback
• Online conferences
• Broadcast production
• DAW integration

Unlike the Yamaha MG10XU, which provides stereo USB audio, the DM3 can record and play back multiple independent channels through USB.

Stereo USB Recording

The console can also record a stereo mix directly to a compatible USB storage device.

This is useful for:

• Event archiving
• Conference recordings
• Rehearsal recordings
• Reference mixes
• Live-performance recordings
• Speech capture

For full multitrack recording, a computer connected through USB or a compatible Dante workflow is required.

DAW Remote Control

The DM3 can operate as a physical controller for compatible digital audio workstation functions.

Its motorised faders and controls can be used for operations such as:

• Track level
• Playback
• Stop
• Recording
• Transport control
• Basic DAW navigation

This makes the console suitable for temporary studios, live recording and post-event editing workflows.

Remote Control Software

The Yamaha DM3 supports professional remote-control applications.

Compatible tools include:

• DM3 Editor
• DM3 StageMix
• MonitorMix

DM3 Editor allows show files and console settings to be prepared or edited from a computer.

StageMix provides remote control from a compatible tablet, allowing the engineer to adjust the system while moving around the venue.

MonitorMix allows performers to adjust compatible personal monitor mixes from supported mobile devices.

QuickPro Presets

The DM3 includes Yamaha QuickPro Presets for microphones, instruments and output systems.

These presets provide professionally prepared starting points for gain, equalisation, dynamics and other parameters.

They can reduce setup time for:

• Corporate events
• Small live bands
• Speech systems
• Instruments
• Stage monitors
• Recording sessions

Presets should still be adjusted according to the performer, microphone, loudspeaker system and venue.

Scene Memories

The Yamaha DM3 can store scenes containing mixer settings.

Scenes can be prepared for:

• Different performers
• Conference sessions
• Ceremony and party sections
• Rehearsal and show modes
• Multiple event rooms
• Recording configurations
• Backup settings

This makes it possible to recall complete configurations quickly during complex events.

Suitable for Corporate and Live Events

The Yamaha DM3 is particularly suitable for:

• Corporate presentations
• Conferences
• Weddings
• Small and medium live bands
• Acoustic performances
• Theatre productions
• Livestreaming
• Broadcast
• Multitrack recording
• Breakout rooms
• Temporary installations
• Professional AV productions

Its compact size makes it easier to position in venues where a full-size console would occupy too much space.

DM3 or Midas M32R?

The Yamaha DM3 and Midas M32R are suitable for different production requirements.

Choose the DM3 when:

• Compact dimensions are important.
• Dante networking is required.
• Up to 16 local inputs are sufficient.
• 96 kHz operation is preferred.
• Fast touchscreen operation is valuable.
• Multitrack USB and streaming are required.

Choose the M32R when:

• More local inputs and buses are required.
• Larger band productions are expected.
• More physical controls are preferred.
• AES50 stage-box integration is already being used.
• More extensive monitor mixing is required.

The DM3 is more compact and modern in networking, while the M32R provides greater channel and bus capacity.
