The M-5000 is Roland's next-generation flagship mixing console, featuring an ideal user interface for operating a 96-kHz mixing engine loaded with original Roland technology.

The M-5000 can flexibly transform its configuration and functions to accommodate a wide range of situations with its large complement of outstanding features.

The following key words encapsulate the novel technology built into this unit.

"≡ Open High Resolution Configurable Architecture"

Let's take a look at each feature.

Configurable Architecture

The M-5000's mixing engine can freely change its configuration and functions to accommodate the situation. This means it's not definable the M-5000 as a mixer having a specific number of input channels and output buses. For instance, it can become an FOH mixer with 100 input channels at one time, and a monitor mixer having 60 output buses at another.

How is this incredible flexibility and functionality achieved?

The M-5000 is provided with internal processing power for 128 audio paths. These paths can freely be used as input channels, auxiliary buses, groups, matrices, etc. You, the user, can assign these any way you like. When considering the configuration, keep in mind that talkback, oscillators, monitor speakers, and other such functions also each use up audio paths, and plan accordingly.

Now let's take a look at some actual examples of the kinds of mixer configurations you can achieve with this functionality.

1 Standard

•75 monaural input channels
- 6 stereo input channels
- Main LR/C
•24 AUX
•8 MATRIX
• Monitors, talkback, oscillator, headphones (6 audio paths used)

2 Monitor mix

•48 monaural input channels
- 8 stereo input channels
• Main LR
•54 AUX
• Monitors 1 and 2, talkback, oscillator, headphones (8 audio paths used)

3 FOH mix

•79 monaural input channels
- 8 stereo input channels
- Main LR/C
•10 subgroups
•6 AUX
•8 MATRIX
• Monitors, talkback, oscillator, headphones (6 audio paths used)

4 Broadcast

•72 monaural input channels
- 6 stereo input channels
- Main 5.1 + stereo downmix (8 audio paths used)
- 8 subgroups
•8 AUX
•4 MIX-MINUS
•8 MATRIX
• Monitors 1 and 2, talkback, oscillator, headphones (8 audio paths used)

So what do you think? It's clear that the M-5000 has an extremely powerful mixing engine.

High Resolution

All elements installed in the M-5000 operate at a sample rate of 96 kHz. Not only AD/DA but the mixing engine as well operate at 96 kHz. All effect algorithms operate at 96 kHz.

The analog input and output section that has such a big impact on mixer sound quality, also incorporates Roland expertise with even further refinements. The discrete microphone preamps in the input section has been exclusively designed for 24bit/96kHz operation of the M-5000, enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio for unaffected, high-resolution sound.

Combining these examples of precise analog and digital technology achieves a clarity of sound with an easy naturalness and a sense of high resolution — just what you'd expect a flagship unit to deliver.

Open

The M-5000 is provided with two slots for installing expansion interfaces to expand input and output capability. A variety of formats are supported for installable expansion interfaces, including MADI and Dante as well as REAC, with even more types to be added. Each of these expansion slots provides an additional option of bidirectional input and output on up to 160 channels (when at 48 kHz) or 80 channels (when at 96 kHz), assuring expandability of the M-5000 on into the future.

Channel Strips

The high-functionality channel strips that can operate as either input channels or output buses as we have seen can also modify content. The EQ and dynamics algorithms deliver superb sound quality and reproduce the feel of analog effecters when manipulating parameters. It is also possible to rearrange the sequence of EQ and dynamics applied.

GEQs and Effects

The M-5000 is equipped with 32 31-band graphic equalizers that you can insert in input channels and output buses. You can also select either proportional or constant as the Q type for GEQs as well as switch a GEQ to operate as an 8-band PEQ.

Eight stereo (16 dual-mono) effects are available as well. The high-quality effects provided on Roland mixers have been redesigned to operate at 96 kHz, and operational feel is also improved.

A new "dynamic EQ" effect type has also been added.

REAC

At the core of digital transmission on the M-5000 is Roland's own originally developed REAC (Roland Ethernet Audio Communication) protocol.

Roland was among the first to note the usefulness of digital transmission, and announced the first REAC device, the S-4000S Digital Snake, in 2005. Since then, the simplicity of setup and high stability of REAC devices has been acknowledged by acceptance and used around the world. One of the three REAC ports on the M-5000 supports REAC Embedded Power, making it possible to power and communicate with an M-48 personal mixer or S-0808 digital snake over a single LAN cable.

You can also install additional REAC expansion interfaces in the expansion slots described later in this manual.

Super Patchbay

Because digital communication using REAC and expansion using the optional expansion interface are both covered, the M-5000's patchbays are amply powerful on their own.

When at 96kHz When at 48kHz
M-5000 300 inputs/296 outputs 460 inputs/456 outputs
M-5000C 300 inputs/288 outputs 460 inputs/448 outputs

With the combinations of input and output ports, and with the ability to incoming signals to output without passing through the mixer core, it is possible to create flexible setups such as for transmission between front of house and monitors or direct out to recorders.

Remote Control

You can use the M-5000 RCS dedicated control program to operate the M-5000 remotely from a Windows or Macintosh computer. You can also remotely control the console from an iPad by using the M-5000 Remote dedicated application.

External Control

With the M-5000's four input and 12 output GP I/O connectors, you can send and receive control signals to and from external devices. The M-5000 also provides four inputs for footswitch pedals.

As with other Roland digital mixers up to now, control via MIDI or the RS-232C interface is also possible.

Live Recording

Connecting a Macintosh or Windows-based computer to the USB COMPUTER connector engages 16x16 recording and playback audio interface that can be used with most digital audio workstation (DAW) software.

Recording and playback of two-channel WAV files on USB flash drives is also available using the USB port on the console surface.

Connecting an R-1000 48-track recorder to the REAC connector lets you carry out 48-track (48 kHz) or 24-track (96 kHz) recording and playback as a standalone device.

Redundancy

Connecting an optional S-240P to the EXT. POWER DC INPUT connector achieves redundant power so if a problem occurs in the M-5000's main power source, backup power is supplied by the S-240P.

Using 2 REAC ports to a digital snake achieves redundant audio transmission.

Ideal User Interface

So far we're taken a look at many of the M-5000's outstanding functions.

A basic rule of design holds that increasing the number of functions generally can have a negative impact on ease of use.

However, the M-5000 shatters this rule by architecting a highly rational user interface using a small number of controls. Let's look at the several sections that make up the M-5000's outstanding user interface.

1 Display section

Nearly all parameters can be manipulated using the touch display with the attractive design and the 16 knobs and switches laid out beneath it. Any parameter you touch on the screen can also be immediately adjusted directly by the one "Selected Knob".

Because operations are completed using just this section, time loss due to large hand movements is minimized.

The high-reliability, pressure-sensitive 12-inch display clearly and vividly displays a variety of information with high image quality and a wide viewing angle.

ROLAND M-5000C - Display section - 1

Fader bank section and assignable fader section

The fader bank section, where 8 faders are provided, can also be used as independent sets of 8 faders or as interlinked sets of 16 or 24 faders. The decision on how to use the 24 controls can be made instantly, letting you operate the M-5000 and its huge mixing engine with optimal efficiency. You can also assign often-used input channels and output buses to the four assignable faders and display them on the top panel at all times.

Organic EL displays offering excellent brightness and visibility are provided above both the fader bank section and the assignable fader section, enabling quick checking of information.

ROLAND M-5000C - Fader bank section and assignable fader section - 1

User-assignable section

Assigning frequently used functions to the user-assignable section lets you display important functions on the top panel at all times. This groups together four encoders and eight switches in a compact layout, but you can assign many more functions to this section by switching between three banks.

Basic REAC Knowledge

REAC (Roland Ethernet Audio Communication) is Roland's own original digital audio-transmission technology using Ethernet. Its uses protocol independently developed by Roland based on Ethernet technology, and makes possible transmission of 40 input and 40 output channels of 24-bit digital audio at 96 kHz using a single Category 5e Ethernet cable. REAC devices can also easily be interconnected.

  • Capable of 40 input and 40 output of 24-bit digital audio at 96 kHz
  • Allows easy device connection using just master, slave, and split settings
  • Capable of transmission of up to 100 meters over a single Cat 5e cable
  • Extension of cable length possible using an Ethernet switching hub
  • Easy signal splitting possible using a switching hub
  • Extremely short transmission latency between REAC devices (approx. 375 microseconds)

About Cables

Because Category 5e Ethernet cables are used, connecting REAC devices to one another is simple and easy. These Cat 5e Ethernet cables are ordinarily used to make computer network connections.

Ethernet Cable Types

•Crossover cable
The cable's internal wiring crosses over at each RJ45 plug. This means that the connections of the RJ45 plugs at either end of the signal cable are different.
- Straight cable
The cable's internal wiring is arranged identically at each end.

With this unit, you can use either crossover cables or straight cables. For making connections to the REAC ports, we recommend using optionally available REAC cables (SC-W20F, SC-W100S, W100S-R, etc.).

Ethernet Connectors

Ethernet cables use RJ45 plugs. REAC devices are provided with an RJ45 connector at REAC port.

ROLAND M-5000C - Ethernet Connectors - 1

text_image RJ45 plug REAC RJ45 connector

For critically important communication, protecting RJ45 plugs and connectors is vital. In such cases, rugged Neutrik EtherCon plugs are used for the REAC RJ45 plugs.

Using EtherCon RJ45 plugs makes possible the same kind of latch-locked connections as when using XLR plugs.

Neutrik provides EtherCon RJ45 plugs, as well as EtherCon plugs that you can add to or use to modify RJ45 plugs on third-party Ethernet cables.

Important Notes on Handling Ethernet Cables

  • Never apply strong force to Ethernet cables.
  • Never wind (bend) an Ethernet cable using a coil radius of 25 millimeters or less, or bend the cable sharply enough to kink it.
  • Never bind bundled Ethernet cables too tightly.
  • Never run lengths of multiple Ethernet cables in parallel over long distances.
  • Keep Ethernet cables away from sources of noise (such as power cords, motors, and fluorescent lights).

Connecting REAC Input/Output Units

This describes how to connect REAC input/output units to the M-5000.

This section shows a typical example of a connection using the S-2416. For connections of greater complexity, refer to the Reference Manual (PDF).

Important Notes on REAC Connections

REAC connections are designed not to produce noise when hot-swapping (inserting or detaching live lines) is performed. In rare cases, however, noise might occur in the system's audio output. The following two methods can prevent damage due to hot-swapping to speakers or other devices connected to audio outputs.

  • Make the REAC connection while holding down [MUTE ALL OUTPUTS] on the input/output unit.
  • Go to the MUTE GROUP MASTER window and use [MUTE ALL OUTPUTS] to mute output, then make the REAC connection.
