The new 02R96VCM is the 02R96 Version 2 plus a formidable array of state-of-the-art processing technologies that provide all-new production power. You now have extraordinary recreations of classic compression and EQ units from the 70's, simulations of several legendary analog open-reel tape decks, a complete suite of unmatched REV-X reverb effects, a surround post-production package that is second to none, and even a selection of vintage stomp boxes to spice up your mixes. And all of this is right at your fingertips, with no need to patch in external processors.
The technology that has made all of this possible is some of the most advanced in the world, and the sound is simply superb.
In short, one of the world's most popular digital production consoles just got a lot more powerful.
VCM technology is responsible for the classic compressor, EQ, analog tape deck, and stompbox effect simulations in the 02R96VCM.
VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling) technology actually models the characteristics of analog circuitry - right down to the last resistor and capacitor. VCM technology goes well beyond simply analyzing and modeling electronic components and emulating the sound of old equipment. It's capable of capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, while actually creating ideal examples of sought-after vintage gear.

iSSP technology is the key to the 02R96VCM's incredible selection of surround post-production effects.
iSSP stands for "Interactive Spatial Sound Processing," and is Yamaha's original new spatial sound effect system. Designed through extensive research and exhaustive testing, this technology offers unparalleled reality, operability and originality for surround processing applications. It delivers unprecedented sound-field positioning precision and versatility, as well as realistic sound source movement effects with simple operation that allows simulations of an almost unlimited variety of spatial environments.
Room ER, Auto Doppler, Field Rotation –Surround post package (AE041)–
"REV-X" is the advanced algorithm behind Yamaha's newest generation of reverb and ambience programs, offering unprecedented reverberation depth and realism with smooth decay. REV-X technology takes full advantage of the 24-bit 96-kHz processing capability of the 02R96 for reverb and ambience effects that have the reassuring warmth and reality of natural acoustic environments.

02R96 Version 2 implements a range of additions and refinements that reflect the needs of professionals in the field, providing an improved working environment for production, live sound, broadcast, and installed applications.
| DAW Control | Advanced Nuendo® support. Use Pro Tools® remote to control surround panning. Control MMC/P2 transport from the DAW remote layer. |
| Surround Features | 6.1 panning and 6.1 monitoring. Surround bus setup. Snap to SPL 85 dB. Surround pan on/off (using the Follow Pan switch). Simultaneous auditioning of surround monitor sources (BUS+ASSIGN1, BUS+ASSIGN2). |
| Broadcast Features | Mix-Minus function. Password-protected operation lock. Pre-fader solo with pan. Fader/solo release. 1 kHz / 400 Hz dual oscillator. |
| Live Sound Features | User-assignable layer. Group master faders (user-assignable layer). Group master mutes (user-defined keys). Instant group assign (user-defined keys). AUX pre-fader pre-ON (AUX pre-point). Global paste to multiple scenes. Instant AUX monitoring (AUX/solo link). Global fade time / Global recall safe. Gain reduction meter display for all channels. |
| Production Features | Automix static insert. |
| Others | Support for add-on effects. Added GPI parameters (high/low trigger, latch/unlatch). |
The 02R96V2 provides full support for all five of Yamaha's Add-on Effects packages (each package is sold separately). The advanced effects and signal-processing capabilities provided by these packages are accessed and operated via the console's internal effect processors in the same way as the built-in effects.
The Studio Manager application has undergone a major evolution, and is now a host application that can support multiple editors (such as the 02R96 Editor) within its framework. This offers many advantages including total project recall and smoother online and offline editing with multiple 02R96 units. A variety of other enhancements include Add-on Effect support, multiple windows, and improved overall operability through shortcuts, keyboard operations, drag and drop, and using the console's User Defined Keys to remotely open and close windows. The Console Window now provides a quick online/offline switch, the ability to show or hide the parameter block, user assignable layers, long stroke meters, quick jump to the Selected Channel window by double-clicking the EQ section, and numerical fader level indication. A new Master Fader window and Meter window have been added for easier master level monitoring as well as simultaneous meter display for 48 channels plus gain reduction metering. There's also a new Automix Library window that makes it much easier to use automix. The Selected Channel window now shows gate type and long-stroke channel meters. The Patch Editor window can be resized, provides PM1D-like cursor shape and operation, and makes it possible to list and edit the port names. In the Library window you can operate multiple scenes and libraries simultaneously, recall them directly from hard disk, and link scene memories with patch libraries. As with the 02R96 itself, the Surround Editor window now supports 6.1 channels. You can also use the joystick in the Effect Editor window to control the ER/REV position of the REV 5.1 effect.
