DM1000VCM VCM Features

DM1000VCM Features  —Start shipping April 2008—

Versatile V2 features plus a formidable array of plug-in processors

The new DM1000VCM is the DM1000 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

VCM logo

VCM technology is responsible for the classic compressor, EQ, analog tape deck, and stompbox effect simulations in the DM1000VCM.

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

iSSP logo

iSSP technology is the key to the DM1000VCM'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.

Surround post

Room ER, Auto Doppler, Field Rotation –Surround post package (AE041)–

REV-X

REV-X logo

"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 DM1000 for reverb and ambience effects that have the reassuring warmth and reality of natural acoustic environments.

Reverb

Rev-X Hall, Rev-X Plate, REV-X Room –Reverb package (AE031)–

DM1000V2 Features

Powerful New Functions for Applications from Production to Live Sound to Broadcast.

This significant upgrade places the DM1000 on the same performance level as DM2000V2 and 02R96V2. And like the DM2000V2 and 02R96V2, the DM1000V2 has now received THX® pm3™ certification. DM1000V2 offers an impressive range of additions and improvements including enhanced surround capabilities, DAW control for integrated production environments, refined automix performance, improved monitoring for broadcast applications, and virtual VCA functionality as well as AUX/SOLO link for live sound.

Seamless ADD-ON EFFECTS Support

The DM1000V2 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. You can also use the DM1000V2 Editor application for effect control.

ESAMII Video Editor Support

The main functionality of the 03D VEK video editing suite for the 03D digital mixing console is now included in the DM1000V2 system software. This provides support for major video editing devices that comply with the ESAMII protocol.

A Major Studio Manager Evolution

The Studio Manager application has undergone a major evolution, and is now a host application that can support multiple editors (such as the DM2000 Editor and SPX2000 Editor) within its framework. This offers many advantages including total project recall, and future support is planned for recall from Steinberg's Nuendo®/Cubase™ via the Studio Connections. Online and offline editing of multiple DM1000V2 or 01V96V2 units is now smoother than ever. 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.
