The Yamaha 02R sparked the digital revolution back in 1995, and
remained the professional standard until the release of the 02R96 in
2002. Now the 02R96 Version 2 expands the envelope once more,
redefining the "state-of-the-art" for digital audio production. With
more than five times the processing power of the original 02R, the
02R96 Version 2 represents a thorough revision that brings every aspect
of the console up to date with today's most advanced production needs.
And since the 02R96 inherits key features from Yamaha's flagship DM2000
Digital Production Console - 96-kHz audio, surround monitoring, studio
manger software, and DAW control - it makes the most advanced
technology for commercial sound and music production available to a
broad range of engineers and facilities.
Uncompromised 24-bit/96kHz performance throughout
Unlike conventional equipment that achieves operation in 96-kHz mode
with reduced number of channels, the 02R96 imposes no such limitations
- at 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz or 96kHz. Full 96kHz resolution with
32-bit internal processing and 58-bit accumulators is the standard. You
get 56 channels of transparent, super-dynamic 24-bit/96-kHz audio, plus
all the additional effects and processing you'll ever need for most
applications. Yamaha has included a comprehensive range of 96-kHz
compatible stereo effects with 32-bit internal processing in the 02R96
- plus several designed specifically for surround. And you can use as
many as four individual effect processors simultaneously.
Superlative sound from preamps and A/D converters
And what about critical A/D conversion? All onboard A/D and D/A
conversion makes use of the finest 24-bit/96-kHz converters. This is
particularly important in the 02R96 because it features head amplifiers
derived from the acclaimed DM2000 - some of the finest analog mic
preamps available in any console, anywhere. The on-board converters
ensure that you get an excellent digital representation of the warm,
transparent output from these remarkable mic preamps. I/O capability is
also in line with the rest of the console's performance: four I/O slots
accept a new range of 24-bit/96-kHz-capable Mini-YGDAI digital and
analog I/O cards as well as existing types.
Dozens of improvements in Version 2
The 02R96 Version 2 adds features and functionality that place it right
at the forefront of modern production requirements, delivering mixing
performance, effects, surround capability, and operational efficiency
that set it apart from all other consoles in its class.
02R96 Version 2 upgrades include:
- Top-quality channel compression, gating, EQ, and delay -
All 56 input channels on the 02R96 feature flexible, independent
compression and gating/ducking processors for dynamics control. The
4-band parameter channel equalizers also offer extra versatility with
switchable "type I" or "type II" EQ algorithms to deliver the type of
EQ response you prefer. Even the channel delay goes beyond the norm,
with a maximum delay of 453 milliseconds. Version 2 even features
comp/gate gain reduction metering on the meter display.
- Pro Tools and Nuendo Control - When used with a DAW
system the 02R96 provides physical control of mixer functions as well
as recorder control. Control functions for Digidesign's Pro Tools and
Steinberg's Nuendo digital audio workstation software are provided as
standard libraries. By simply connecting the console to a computer via
the TO HOST connector (combined USB and serial), the console's faders
and encoders can be used for DAW control to create a seamless,
efficient production environment. You have direct control of Pro Tools
surround panning via the 02R96 joystick. Just about any other DAW
software can be accommodated via MIDI by creating an appropriate MIDI
assignment table.
- Add-On Effects capability - The 02R96 Version 2 is
compatible with Yamaha's outstanding Add-On Effects series (sold
separately). According to your signal-processing needs you could add
the Channel Strip package with high-performance EQ and compression
capability, or the Master Strip Package for extraordinarily accurate
sonic reproductions of some of the finest tape decks of audio's "golden
age". There's also a Reverb Package featuring the latest REV-X reverb
algorithms used in Yamaha's outstanding SPX2000, and other effect
packages that can contribute to your production arsenal in a big way.
- Transport Controls and eight direct locate keys - The
02R96 has been provided with a comprehensive range of facilities for
external machine control. The MMC protocol is supported, and control
can be switched between MTR and master target machines. Version 2
provides additional control capability with the ability to remotely
control MMC equipment directly from the console's DAW layer, so you can
simultaneously control a DAW and MMC recorders without having to switch
layers. 8 direct locate keys are also provided for fast, easy location
and cueing.
- Scene Memory - With the 02R96 you can take a snapshot
of just about any mix, effect and patch setup and store it in any of 99
scene memories. There are also fade time, and recall safe functions
which can be applied globally as well as individually for each channel.
Additional scene memories can be managed via memory cards or a computer
running the supplied Studio Manager software. Like most other control
sections, a DISPLAY key brings all scene parameters up on the LCD
display panel. And for even greater versatility Version 2 features a
global paste function that lets you simultaneously paste selected
parameters from one scene to multiple scenes - your EQ and AUX settings
from final rehearsal, for example, can easily be copied to all other
scenes that will be used during the performance.
Incredibly flexible surround functions
The 02R96 surround features are fully compatible with 3.1, 5.1 and 6.1
surround processing, panning and monitoring requirements. With the
02R96 you can also change the order of the surround channel to bus out
assignment according to project requirements. And since accurate
monitoring is so essential to surround production, extra care was taken
to ensure that the 02R96 offers the ideal mixing environment it
includes a downmix matrix which can deliver 3.1 (LCRS) and stereo mixes
while you are burning a surround mix to DVD, bass management, and
speaker alignment facilities for optimum speaker system tuning. The
02R96 will even handle multiple surround stem mixes with ease.
Surround Effects Built In
The 02R96's internal digital effect system includes "Reverb 5.1", "Comp
5.1", "Expand 5.1", and a number of other effects specifically designed
for surround production. Reverb ER and REV can be panned via the
joystick. One program even provides as many as 8 mono reverbs that can
be used for 8-in/8-out processing. Bus EQ and dynamics can also be
grouped for efficient surround processing.
56 Channels in 3 Layers, Plus Extraordinary Patching Flexibility
One of the advantages of working with digital is that it allows maximum
power and flexibility to be packed into minimum space. On the 02R96 24
precision 100-millimeter motorized channel faders can be
instantaneously layer-switched to control any of 56 channels. Having
all controls right in front of you at all times not only saves space,
but it also means that all operations can be carried out without having
to move away from the monitoring "sweet spot." What's more, all
available inputs, outputs, effects, and channel inserts can be assigned
to any of the console's channels or outputs via the 02R96's remarkably
versatile, easy-to-use digital patching system. For example, any of the
four effect processors can be assigned to an auxiliary buss for
send-type operation, or inserted directly into any input channel as
required. A direct out function also allows the signal from any of the
56 input channels to be routed directly to any digital or analog
output. The eight auxiliary busses can also be patched to anywhere in
the system. Centralized control means you'll never have to run around
to physically re-patch cables whenever you need to reconfigure the
system, and patch setups you might want to use again can be stored in
the patch library for instant recall at any time.
