Getting Started
What is PM5D/DSP5D Editor?
PM5D Editor and DSP5D Editor allow you to remotely control the parameters of the PM5D or DSP5D, and save the parameters on your computer.
PM5D/DSP5 Editor are used by starting them up from within Studio Manager. To use PM5D/DSP5D Editor, you must perform the following steps.
"Start up Studio Manager and make settings" → "Start up PM5D Editor or DSP5D Editor and make settings" → "Synchronize with the PM5D/DSP5D itself (→ p.5)"
NOTE For details on operations in Studio Manager, refer to the Studio Manager operating manual.
Settings in PM5D/DSP5D Editor
You will need to set the following items individually for each editor that is open.
NOTE
- Before you make the following settings, you must select the MIDI ports in the Setup window of Studio Manager.
- To start up PM5D Editor or DSP5D Editor in the Setup window of Studio Manager, double-click the corresponding icon in the Studio Manager window.
PM5D Editor: System Setup
To open the System Setup window, choose the [File] menu item [System Setup]. You must specify the Input port and the Output port.
Input port/Output port: From the ports you have previously specified in Studio Manager, select the ports you will use for communication with the PM5D.
Console Device ID: PM5D Editor can control the desired single unit chosen from a maximum of eight units that each have their own ID. Select the ID of the unit you want to control.
Fast Sync: This shortens the synchronization time with the PM5D itself. If synchronization fails, clear this check box.
Level Meter: This specifies whether level meter data will be included in the communication with the PM5D itself. If this check box is selected, level meter data from the PM5D will be received, but the response speed may be slower. If you feel that the response is slow, clear this check box.
System Color: You can change the workspace color of PM5D Editor. Choose one of eight colors from the pulldown menu. This is convenient when you need to distinguish between multiple instances of PM5D Editor.
Synchronize Plug-in Boards: If these option boxes are selected, the data of the Y96K plug-in board installed in the corresponding slot will be synchronized along with the scene data.
Window Control from Console: PM5D Editor windows can be opened or closed remotely from the PM5D itself by using user-defined keys. This option enables remote control.
Set Default: By clicking this button, you can store the current System Setup settings as the default values for PM5D Editor.
□DSP5D Editor: System Setup
To open the System Setup window, choose [System Setup] from the [File] menu. You must specify the Input port and Output port.
Input port/Output port: From the ports you have previously specified in Studio Manager, select the ports you will use for communication with the DSP5D.
Fast Sync: This shortens the time required for synchronization with the DSP5D. If synchronization fails, you should disable (clear) this item.
Level Meter: This specifies whether level meter data will be included in the communication with the DSP5D. If this check box is selected, level meter data from the DSP5D will be received, but the response speed may be slower. If you feel that the response is slow, clear this check box.
System Color: You can change the workspace color of DSP5D Editor. Choose one of eight colors from the pulldown menu. This is convenient when you need to distinguish between multiple instances of DSP5D Editor.
Set Default: By clicking this button, you can store the current System Setup settings as the default values for DSP5D Editor.
Mixer Setup
To open the Mixer Setup window, choose [Mixer Setup] from the [File] menu.
Pair Mode: Select whether faders will be paired Horizontally or Vertically.
Pan Nominal Position: Select whether the signal will be at nominal level when panned to the center (Center) or when panned all the way to left or right (L<-->R). You can make separate settings for monaural channels and paired channels.
Bus Setup: Select the MIX bus mode (VARI/FIXED) for every two adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered MIX buses. MIX buses assigned as surround buses are indicated as “SURROUND” and cannot be changed.
Surround Bus Allocation: Select the MIX buses (MIX 1–8 or MIX 9–16) that will be used as surround buses.
Stereo B Setup: Specify whether the same signal as the STEREO A bus will be sent to the STEREO B bus (Stereo Bus), or whether the STEREO B bus will function as the CENTER bus for LCR mode (Center Bus).
Number of Effects: This changes the number of assigned internal effects and GEQ modules. Decreasing the number of internal effects by one will increase the number of available GEQ modules by one. You can change the number assigned between eight internal effects (and twelve GEQ modules) to no internal effects (and twenty GEQ modules). You can use up to eight GEQ modules as effects.
+48V Master: This function is found only in DSP5D Editor. It is the master switch for the phantom power (+48V) supplied to INPUT jacks 1–48 and ST IN jacks 1–4. If this switch is off, phantom power will not be applied, regardless of whether the +48V shown in the display is on or off.
Surround Mode: Select the surround mode (STEREO, 3-1, 5.1, 6.1).
External HA: This specifies the connection ports for external HA (AD8HR) units connected via the slots. External HA units are assigned an ID of 1–8 (1–4 on the DSP5D), and here you can select the ports to which each will be connected.
IP Address: This function is found only in DSP5D Editor. You can specify the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway values. If the DSP5D and computer are connected in a one-to-one correspondence, we recommend that you use the following default values.
• IP Address...... 192.168.0.129
- Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
- Default Gateway...... 192.168.0.1
NOTE
- For details on network settings for your computer, refer to DME-N Network Driver installation guide for DSP5D(Windows) or Network-MIDI Driver installation guide(Mac).
- If you changed the IP Address, you must close DSP5D Editor and Studio Manager, and re-specify the IP Address values for the DME-N Network Driver communication port or the Network-MIDI Driver communication port. The connection between the DSP5D and DSP5D Editor will be broken when you change the IP Address
Cascade Connection: This function is found only in DSP5D Editor. It specifies the Cascade Machine ID when using a cascade connection. If this is set to 1, you will be able to make DME Connection settings. If this is set to 2 or 3, the Cascade setting will be Slave, and you won't be able to make DME Connection settings.
DME Connection: This function is found only in DSP5D Editor. This is a setting for connecting the DSP5D with a DME series unit (except the DME32). For details on the connection method, refer to the Global function MIDI Remote Function section in the reference section of the DSP5D manual.
NOTE
Even if you enable DME Connection, remote control of the DME cannot be performed from DSP5D Editor. Use the separate DME Designer to remotely control the DME.
- Input Port / Output Port
This specifies the DSP5D's connector/slot to which the DME is connected. You can choose SLOT1, SLOT2, CASCADE IN/OUT D-SUB, or CASCADE OUT RJ-45.
NOTE
- If you select CASCADE IN/OUT D-SUB or CASCADE OUT RJ-45, the Slot display area of Patch Editor will show the selected connector/slot.
- Since CASCADE IN RJ-45 cannot be used, you must connect the DSP5D via its CASCADE OUT RJ-45 connector if you use an Ethernet cable to connect the DME and DSP5D.
- Monitor Port
This specifies the DSP5D port that will receive monitor signals from the DME. You can select stereo channels from within the port selected by Input Port.
- Connect
This initiates or ends communication between the DSP5D and DME. Communication will begin if this check box is selected, and will end if this check box is cleared. The actual start or end of communication will occur when you click the OK button.
• MIDI Program Change
This allows the DME to recall a scene according to the Program Change Table assignment in synchronization with scene recall that occurs on the DSP5D. If you enable this function by selecting the check box, synchronization via MIDI program change will be enabled. In order to enable this function, the Connect check box must be selected.
Synchronizing PM5D/DSP5D Editor
When PM5D/DSP5D Editor starts up, the parameter settings on the PM5D/DSP5D itself and the parameter settings in PM5D/DSP5D Editor may be different. Therefore, you must first match the parameter settings on the PM5D/DSP5D itself with those in PM5D/DSP5D Editor. This operation is called “synchronization.” Follow the steps below to synchronize PM5D/DSP5D Editor.
1 Select [Synchronize], then [Re-synchronize].
The window shown at right opens.
2 Select whether you want to transfer your settings to PM5D/DSP5D Editor, or vice versa.
At this time, the All Libs option determines whether or not Scene and Library data is synchronized.
If the [Fast Sync] check box is selected, synchronization with the unit itself will be faster. In order to enable this item, you must select the [Fast Sync] check box in the System Setup window.
PC -> Console (DSP5D): Transfers the current parameter settings in PM5D/DSP5D Editor to the PM5D/DSP5D itself.
Console (DSP5D) -> PC: Transfers the current parameter settings of the PM5D/DSP5D itself to the PM5D/DSP5D Editor.
3 Click [OK].
![YAMAHA DCU5D - Click [OK]. - 1](/content/2026/05/910394/images/21bdecfcd91aabc53dc10fa88a04dd4d5282723d0ada170c8256775517213e9d.jpg)
Do not operate the PM5D/DSP5D itself while synchronization is in progress.
NOTE
- When you synchronize with Studio Manager, synchronize will occur between all editors selected in Studio Manager and the respective hardware units.
- If loading of scene data from an external location is disabled on the unit itself, the Direction will be set to Console (DSP5D) -> PC. If there is scene data that is set to Read Only, a dialog box will appear when you click OK, asking whether you want the read-only data to be synchronized as Console (DSP5D) -> PC, or not synchronized. Your selection will apply to all scene data that is set to Read Only.
Offline Edit Function
If you do not want to synchronize PM5D/DSP5D itself with PM5D/DSP5D Editor, select [Offline Edit] from the [Synchronization] menu. To apply your off-line edits to the PM5D/DSP5D itself, select [Re-Synchronize] from the [Synchronization] with the PC -> Console (DSP5D) option to synchronize the PM5D/DSP5D itself with PM5D/DSP5D Editor.
The Offline Edit function is also activated when you click the [ONLINE]/[OFFLINE] button in the Sync window.
NOTE
Some effect parameters in the PM5D/DSP5D itself change their displayed values depending on the sampling frequency. If you switch PM5D/DSP5D Editor from OFFLINE to ONLINE, displayed parameter values may change because PM5D/DSP5D Editor loads the sampling frequency from the PM5D/DSP5D itself and updates the display.
Working with Sessions
In PM5D/DSP5 Editor, mix settings for an entire PM5D/DSP5D unit, including scene and library data, are called a Session.
| Creating a new Session | Choose [New Session] from the [File] menu. |
| Opening a previously saved Session | Choose [Open Session] from the [File] menu. |
| Saving the current Session | Choose [Save Session] from the [File] menu. |
| Saving the current Session with a new name | Choose [Save Session As...] from the [File] menu. |
When you save a session in the window of an editor, the settings of only that editor will be saved in a file. Session files saved by PM5D/DSP5D Editor have a filename extension of “.YSE”. Files in which only the PM5D itself data is saved (filename extension “.PM5”) can also be handled, allowing you to use a memory card to exchange data with the PM5D itself.
If you save a Session in the Studio Manager window, all selected Editor settings are saved in a file with a file extension of ".YSM."
NOTE
Data with the extension ".PM5" that was saved by PM5D version 1 and PM5D Editor (supporting version 1) can also be opened by PM5DV2 Editor.
Window operations
You can select and open each window from the [Windows] menu. For the INPUT CH window and Effect Editor window, use the sub-menu to select the channels or library you want to see.
In the Library window or Scene window, click the tabs located at the top of the window to switch between pages.

Edit functions
☐ Ch Copy / Ch Paste (channel copy / channel paste) function
The Ch Copy/Ch Paste function copies or pastes the channel that is selected by the [SELECT] button (or [SEL] key.) Copy can also be executed by using the keyboard's
Since the Undo data is cleared when you execute Ch Paste, Undo will become unavailable at that point.
☐ Ch Move (channel move) function
The Ch Move function moves the specified channel to the location of another channel that has the same structure.
When you select Ch Move, the dialog box shown at the right will appear. When you click the buttons located below Source and Destination, a channel list will appear.
Select the move Source and move Destination, and click the OK button to move the channel.
The channels affected by Ch Move will be the same set of channels as selected by [SELECT] button (or [SEL] key). This is not available for output channels. Undo data will be cleared when you execute Ch Move, so all Undo operations will become unavailable at that point.
NOTE
- If the Source is a paired channel, the channels will be moved as a pair.
- If there are paired channels between the Source and Destination, movement occurs in pairs (units of two channels).
- Movement will occur in pairs (units of two channels) if parameters of which there is one instance for every two channels are turned on (also if parameters such as GANG or LINK are on).
In PM5D/DSP5D Editor, you can cancel the latest operation (Undo) and also cancel the cancellation of the latest operation (Redo). If you perform an Undo operation twice in a row, you can cancel the two most-recent operations. If you perform an Undo operation three times in a row, you can cancel the three most-recent operations. In this way, you can cancel multiple recent operations.
The following table describes how to use the Undo/Redo function.
| Undo | Choose [Undo] from the [Edit] menu. |
| Redo | Choose [Redo] from the [Edit] menu. |
Please note, however, that after you perform one of the following operations, you cannot successfully undo or redo any previous operation:
- O perations on the PM5D/DSP5D itself
- Quitting Studio Manager
• C hanging the surround mode or pair mode
• S synchronizing with the PM5D/DSP5D itself - Session operations
• T he GEQ [EQ FLAT] button - M oving the fader positions by changing the GEQ variable width
NOTE You cannot Undo or Redo the following operations:
• Edits in the Setup window
- Synchronization
- Opening and closing the windows
- Resizing the windows
- Ch Copy/Ch Paste
- Ch Move
For some functions, there are also other operations that cannot be undone.
NOTE For Library and Scene operations, Undo/Redo will apply only to the single preceding operation. You cannot undo an operation that occurred two or more operations previously. Undo/Redo in these windows can be performed only using the [UNDO] button in the respective window. Even if you execute a scene recall from the Sync window, you cannot use a shortcut or menu operation to undo this.

This indicates that a clock synchronized with the source selected in ① is being input. If an external device is connected to the corresponding connector/slot, input/output is occurring correctly between that device and the DSP5D. If the sampling rate is close, this status may be shown even if the source is not synchronized.
- UNLOCK ( )
This indicates that a valid clock is not being input. If an external device is connected to the corresponding connector, input/output cannot occur correctly between that device and the DSP5D.
- LOCK, but NOT SYNC'ED ( )
A valid clock is being input, but is not synchronized with the clock source selected in ①. If an external device is connected to the corresponding connector, input/output cannot occur correctly between that device and the DSP5D.
- UNKNOWN ( )
This indicates that the clock status cannot be detected because no external device is connected or because there is no valid clock input. You will be able to select this connector/slot, but correct synchronization cannot occur until a valid connection is established.
- SRC ON ( )
This is a special status limited to SLOT 1–2, and indicates that the SRC (Sampling Rate Converter) of the corresponding channel is enabled. This means that input/output with the DSP5D can occur correctly even when not synchronized.
NOTE
- Noise may be produced from the output jacks when you change the word clock setting. To protect your speakers, you must turn down the power amp output before you change the word clock setting.
- If you attempt to select a channel for which SRC is On as the word clock master, a warning message will inform you that the sampling rate converter will be disabled.
② Fs (sampling frequency)
This indicates the sampling frequency at which the DSP5D is operating. This will indicate “UNLOCKED” if synchronization is not currently achieved, such as immediately after you’ve switched the master clock.
③ SLOT SETUP
- SLOT number and card type
This shows the type of digital I/O card installed in slots 1–2, and CASCADE for slots 3/4.
- INPUT FORMAT (input signal format) / OUTPUT FORMAT (output signal format)
Here you can select one of the following as the method by which signals will be transmitted and received via a digital I/O card installed in the slot when the DSP5D is operating at a high sampling rate (88.2/96 kHz).
SINGLE
Use this setting if a device operating at the conventional 44.1/48 kHz is connected, and you want to operate it with the original channel count. The sampling frequency will be converted for each channel of the digital I/O card, and transmitted/received at half the sampling rate of the DSP5D (44.1/48 kHz). (This setting can be selected only for slots in which a digital I/O card that does not support 96 kHz is installed.)
DOUBLE SPEED
Use this setting if a device operating at a high sampling rate (88.2/96 kHz) is connected, and you want to transmit and receive high sampling rate audio signals without change. (This setting can be selected only for slots in which a digital I/O card that supports 96 kHz is installed.)
DOUBLE CHANNEL
Use this setting if a device operating at the conventional 44.1/48 kHz is connected, and you want it to handle high sampling rate (88.2/96 kHz) signals. Two channels of signals at half the DSP5D's sampling rate (44.1/48 kHz) will be combined and transmitted/received as a high sampling rate mono signal. (The number of usable channels will be halved.)
• FREQUENCY (sampling rate)
This indicates the sampling rate of the signal being input to the channels of the digital I/O card, in units of two channels.
- SRC (sampling rate converter)
These buttons switch the sampling rate converter on/off in units of two channels. This is available only for slots in which a digital I/O card containing a sampling rate converter is installed.
• EMPHASIS STATUS
This indicates whether emphasis processing is being applied to the input signal, in units of two channels. This is shown only for slots in which a digital I/O card is installed.
• DITHER
This indicates the number of bits for which dithering will be applied to the input signal, in units of two channels. When you click this with the mouse, a popup will appear, allowing you to select either OFF, 16 bit, 20 bit or 24 bit. Select the desired number of bits for dithering.
Oscillator window
In this window of the editor you can edit and view the DSP5D's oscillator status.
Choose [Windows] → [Monitor] → [Oscillator] to access this window.
PM5D Editor does not have a corresponding window.
For SINE WAVE 2CH For PINK NOISE For BURST NOISE
① OSC ON/OFF (oscillator on/off)
This switches the oscillator on/off.
② OSC MODE (oscillator mode)
Here you can select from the following choices of waveform or noise that the oscillator will produce.
SINE WAVE 1CH ..... Sine wave x 1 channel
SINE WAVE 2CH .....Sine wave x 2 channels
PINK NOISE......Pink noise
BURST NOISE ......Burst noise (intermittently output pink noise)
③ PARAMETERS
Specify the following items according to your choice in ②.
• LEVEL
This knob adjusts the output level of the oscillator. The range is -96 dB to 0 dB. The output level is shown by the level meter located beside.
- FREQ (frequency)
Here you can specify the frequency of the sine wave that is output by the oscillator. Use the knob to specify a frequency in the range of 20 Hz–20 kHz. (The current setting is shown by the numerical box located above the knob.) You can select a preset frequency by clicking one of the 10 kHz / 1 kHz / 100 Hz buttons.
HINT If SINE WAVE 2CH is selected, the level and frequency of each channel can be set independently.
- HPF (high pass filter) / LPF (low pass filter)
Here you can make settings for the HPF/LPF that will process the pink noise or burst noise. The upper knob sets the cutoff frequency (20 Hz–20 kHz), and the lower button turns it on/off.
- WIDTH/INTERVAL
If burst noise is selected, these specify the length of the actual noise (WIDTH), and the length of the silent interval between noise bursts (INTERVAL).
The range for WIDTH is 0.1–10 sec, and the range for INTERVAL is 1–30 seconds. (The current setting is shown by the numerical box located above the knob.)
- OSC OUT (oscillator direct output)
This indicates the output jack or slot channel from which the oscillator signal will be directly output. To change the output destination, click the PATCH button to access the OUTPUT PATCH window.
If SINE WAVE 2CH is selected, the L-channel of the oscillator will be output from the oscillator direct output.
- BUS ASSIGN
Here you can select the bus that will output the sine wave or noise. (Multiple choices are allowed.)
MIX 1–24 ...... MIX buses 1–24
MATRIX 1-8...... MATRIX buses 1-8
AL/AR...... STEREO A bus L/R channels
BL/BR...... STEREO B bus L/R channels
If SINE WAVE 2CH is selected, the L-channel of the oscillator will be output from the odd-numbered bus or the L jack, and the R-channel of the oscillator will be output from the even-numbered bus or the R jack.
Cue/Solo window
In this window of the editor you can edit and view the cue and solo status of the PM5D/DSP5D.
Choose [Windows] → [Monitor] → [Cue/Solo] to access this window.
① SOLO ON/OFF
This button selects either CUE MODE or SOLO mode as the monitoring method when the [CUE] key is used. If you turn this button on, a confirmation message will appear. Each mode operates as follows.
• CUE mode (SOLO ON/OFF button is off)
The signal of the channel whose [CUE] key is pressed will be sent to the dedicated CUE bus, and monitored via the CUE bus from the CUE OUT jacks. This mode allows you to monitor the signal of the desired channel without affecting other buses.
• SOLO mode (SOLO ON/OFF button is on)
If you solo an input, the Solo function will be enabled, and only the signal of the channel whose [CUE] key is pressed will be sent to the MIX, MATRIX, and STEREO A/B buses; the other channels will be muted. If you solo an output, only that channel will be on. The signal of the channel whose [CUE] key is pressed can also be monitored via the CUE OUT jacks.
② CUE MODE
This button selects one of the following two modes of operation for when the [CUE] key of more than one channel is pressed. If it is off, operation will be in MIX CUE mode.
- MIX CUE mode
You can monitor the more than one channels or DCA groups whose [CUE] keys are turned on within the same CUE group.
NOTE
- You cannot simultaneously turn on [CUE] keys of differing groups. The CUE group to which the last-pressed [CUE] key belongs will be on, and signals of that CUE group can be monitored.
- If you press the [CUE] key of a paired channel, both channels will be on.
- LAST CUE mode
Only the channel or DCA group that was most recently selected by its [CUE] key will be monitored.
③ CUE FUNCTION
Here you can turn various cue-related functions on/off. The following functions are available.
• MIX CUE LINK
This specifies whether cue operation will be linked with MIX channel selection. If this button is on, pressing the already-selected [MIX] key in the panel ENCODER MODE section will simultaneously cause the [CUE] key of that channel to light. DSP5D Editor does not have this button.
- CUE/SEL LINK
This specifies whether CUE operation will be linked with channel selection. If this button is on, pressing the [CUE] key of the desired channel will simultaneously select that channel, and its [SEL] key will light.
• F ADER/CUE RELEASE
This specifies whether cue operation will be limited according to the fader position. If this button is on, raising the fader from the - position of a channel whose [CUE] key is lit will defeat cue. For channels whose fader is above - , you will be unable to perform cue operations. (Pressing the [CUE] key will not do anything.) This means that cue can be turned on only if the fader is at - .
④ INPUT
Here you can select the position from which the cue signal is taken for input channels.
PFL (pre fader listen) ..... Immediately before the fader
AFL (after fader listen)... Immediately after the fader
POST PAN...... Immediately after pan
If you select PFL, you can also use the knob located at the left to adjust the output level in a range of -20 dB to +10 dB.
⑤ DCA
Here you can make settings for the cue output of DCA groups.
• DCA TRIM
Adjust the level of the cue output for DCA groups, in a range of -20 dB to +10 dB.
• DCA UNITY
If this button is on, pressing a DCA [CUE] key will always monitor the corresponding DCA group at unity gain (the same level as when the DCA fader is at 0 dB).
HINT
- If you leave the DCA UNITY button on, you will always be able to monitor the desired DCA group even if that DCA group is muted or if its DCA fader is lowered.
- The value specified by the DCA TRIM knob is valid even when the DCA UNITY button is on. (In this case, the DCA TRIM knob specifies an offset value relative to unity gain.)
- PRE PAN/POST PAN
This selects whether you will be monitoring the signal immediately before the pan (if the PRE PAN button is on) or the signal immediately after the pan (if the POST PAN button is on) when you turn on a DCA [CUE] button.
⑥ OUTPUT
Here you can select the position from which the cue signal is taken for output channels.
PFL (pre fader listen) ..... Immediately before the fader
POST ON...... Immediately after the [ON] key
If you select PFL, you can also use the knob located at the left to adjust the output level in a range of -20 dB to +10 dB.
⑦ INPUT SOLO SAFE
Here you can select the input channels that will be excluded from solo operations (multiple selections are allowed). These buttons correspond to the following input channels.
| INPUT 1–48 Input channels 1–48 |
| ST IN 1–4 ST IN channels 1–4 |
| FX RTN 1–4 FX RTN channels 1–4 |
| SET ALL Activates solo safe for all input channels |
| CLEAR ALL Defeats solo safe for all input channels |
⑧ OUTPUT SOLO SAFE
Here you can select the output channels that will be excluded from solo operations (multiple selections are allowed). These buttons correspond to the following output channels.
| MIX 1–24 MIX channels 1–24 |
| MATRIX 1–8 MATRIX channels 1–8 |
| STEREO A/B STEREO A/B channels |
| SET ALL Activates solo safe for all output channels |
| CLEAR ALL Defeats solo safe for all output channels |
Solo safe settings and cue on/off settings are linked for two paired channels. Solo safe operations can be performed independently of scene memories.
⑨ Level meter
This is a peak level meter that indicates the level of the signal being output from the CUE OUT jacks. As the point at which the level is detected, you can choose either immediately before the delay provided on the MONITOR/CUE bus output (when the PRE DELAY button is on), or immediately after it (when the POST DELAY button is on).
⑩ MONITOR/CUE DELAY
Here you can make settings for the delay function that is provided on the MONITOR/CUE output. Use the knob to specify the delay time (0–1000 msec), and use the DELAY button to turn the delay on/off. If the AUTO BYPASS button is on, the delay will be automatically bypassed when you perform a cue operation.
⑪ CUE LEVEL
This adjusts the output level of the cue signal.
⑫ CUE OUT
This switches the cue output on/off.
Port Trim window
PM5D Editor does not have a corresponding window.
Here you can make fine adjustments to the AD input/output gain.
As necessary, make fine adjustments to the gain of the specified analog input/output port. You can adjust this in 0.1 dB units for input ports, and in 0.01 dB units for output ports. When the unit is shipped from the factory, the input levels of each port are set to match, so there is normally no need to adjust this.
If you need to make fine adjustments to the gain, hold down the left mouse button on the dB area of the desired port, and move the cursor up/down; alternatively, you can double-click the dB area and enter a value. If you want to return all input ports to their factory-set state, click the FACTORY PRESET button. When you click the OK button, the Port Trim window will close.
