DM3-D Digital Mixing Console

The DM3-D is a compact 22-channel Dante-equipped digital mixing console with versatile capabilities that make it perfect for a wide range of applications. The DM3 offers superb sound quality, fast and easy setup and operation, and professional-level features.

Fast flexible, full-spec setup
Transporting, unloading, and setting up a sound reinforcement system at a venue can be one of the most laborious tasks a sound engineer undertakes. Not so with the DM3 Series which requires less space and time for configuration and physical setup thanks to flexible patching along with Quick Pro Presets, Editor and StageMix software, and Dante compatibility (DM3 model only), minimizing system setup and configuration time considerably. Combining all this with 6 mix + 2 matrix + 2 effects processors, the DM3 Series are powerful, compact, sturdy consoles that you can take anywhere.

Lightweight construction for supreme portability
Thanks to precise structural design and material selection, the DM3 Series combines a light weight of only 6.5 kg with a robust housing that can stand up to the rigors of touring.

Compact Dante-compatible console
Yamaha’s most compact Dante-compatible mixer, the DM3 delivers high-quality 96kHz sound using 16 analog inputs and eight outputs with low latency, and matches perfectly with the Tio1608-D I/O Rack for simpler, faster system setup.

Effects to enhance the creativity of sound engineers
The DM3 Series comes equipped with two high-quality multi-effects processors featuring eighteen types of high-grade effects including the REV HD and REV R3— the first of its kind in Yamaha mixers— offer sound engineers the freedom to craft a sound that accurately reflects their own sonic sensibilities.

QuickPro Presets for fast setup with professional sound
The Yamaha R&D team has worked with well-respected engineers and major manufacturers such as Audio-Technica, FitEar, Sennheiser, Shure, Ultimate Ears and Westone Laboratories to develop a selection of optimized QuickPro Presets™ for a wide variety of microphones and output equipment. With these practical presets even the novice engineer can get very close to the ideal sound, while experienced engineers will appreciate the significant time savings they offer. We prepared more than 200 presets for input channels, covering everything from vocals to drum sets all precisely tuned using a wide range of actual microphones and instruments. For output channels we developed presets for a variety of speaker systems and in-ear monitors such as Ultimate Ears with several variations to match different environments and room sizes. All of these can be used as-is when time is tight, but they are also great starting points for manual fine tuning. Setups created from the presets or from scratch can also be saved as additional presets.

Scene Presets are available for a variety of applications that use the DM3 Series for mixing, making setup quick and easy. Presets are designed to increase speed of setup and allow more time for minor adjustments and rehearsal.

A wealth of applications to support any venue
A wide range of applications help users respond as the situation demands, including DM3 Editor to complete settings in advance well before the performance, DM3 StageMix to remotely control the DM3 Series from onstage, and MonitorMix, which allows each performer to adjust their own monitor.

Professional-quality live streaming has never been easier
Live streaming brings with it unique technical demands that are often a challenge to accommodate without additional outboard gear and the space it requires.

The DM3 Series comes equipped with a USB connection that lets you go live in an instant, paired with a condensed suite of features such as matrices, flexible patching, and factory presets that are aimed specifically at making live streaming seamless and trouble-free. The compact design also makes the DM3 Series ideally suited to multi-console configurations where it would take on a live-streaming role while the other console is used for on-site mixing.

A comprehensive suite of streaming features
The DM3 Series condenses features needed for streaming inside a compact housing. Units are equipped with abundant analog I/O and USB terminals, making it possible to input audio to the DM3 Series and transmit the mixed audio directly to a computer with streaming software launched. With stereo and matrices, audio routing provides a high degree of freedom and allows mixing of audio for on-site and streaming use separately.

In addition, the Dante-equipped DM3 is ideal for standalone operation as well as for use as part of a larger streaming system featuring multiple consoles. For example, using two DM3 units allows the engineer to input the audio transmitted by Dante for on-site and streaming, or use two different mixes for these. The compact housing makes it the ideal console where space is limited, or for use in system expansion.

Flexible patch settings
The DM3 Series inputs and outputs allow patches to be freely changed with ease. These consoles can handle minor modifications to the system flexibly to suit any location, which is extremely useful in situations where teams are divided by role.
