[. . . ] Owner's Manual Keep This Manual For Future Reference. E The Owner's Manual Revisions E Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12 Powered Mixer. Parts of the EMX5000-20, EMX5000-12 owner's manual have been revised. Please refer to the following revisions rather than the corresponding sections of the original owner's manual. P. 14 P. 18 POWER amp section X Rear panel 3 SPEAKERS (speaker output) jacks These jacks are used to connect speakers. Use only Neutrik NL4FC plugs for connecting Speakon connectors. CHANNEL A STEREO/PARALLEL BRIDGE 1+ 1­ 2+ 2­ + ­ 2­ 1+ 1­ CHANNEL B Neutrik NL4FC 1+ 1­ B+ B­ 2+ X LIMITER indicator If the output level of signals received at the SPEAKERS jacks (output of the internal power amplifier) reaches maximum, the indicator will light. [. . . ] · ST L-R The STEREO bus signals are output from the SPEAKERS A 1/2 jacks and the SPEAKERS B 1/2 jacks. The final level of these signals is adjusted by the master ST OUT fader. V W V Graphic equalizer This is a 9-band graphic equalizer that allows you to adjust the frequency response of the STEREO bus signal, providing a maximum of ±12 dB of cut/boost for each frequency band. This graphic equalizer affects both the STEREO bus signal that is output to the speakers and the line level signal that is output from the ST OUT jacks (input/output panel 0), and MONO OUT jack (input/output panel C). · AUX 1-MONO The AUX 1 bus signals are output from the SPEAKERS A 1/2 jacks, and a monaural signal that is a mix of the STEREO bus signals is output from the SPEAKERS B 1/2 jacks. The final level of these signals is adjusted by the master AUX 1 fader and the MONO OUT fader. · AUX 1-AUX 2 The AUX 1, 2 buses signals are output from the SPEAKERS A 1/2 jacks and the SPEAKERS B 1/2 jacks. · MONO BRIDGE The monaural signal that is a mix of the STEREO bus is output from the SPEAKERS A 1 jack. The final level of this signal is adjusted by the master MONO OUT fader. Set the switch to this position when you connect only one speaker to play a loud sound. W ON switch This switch turns the graphic equalizer on/off. s Power amp section This section allows you to select the signals that will be sent to the built-in two-channel power amplifier. Z Maximum output select switch This switch lets you change the maximum output level of the two internal power amps between three levels. Set this as appropriate for the size of the room or the input capacity of the speakers. · 500W + 500W The two internal amps will produce a maximum of 500W + 500W/4. · 300W + 300W The two internal amps will produce a maximum of 300W + 300W/4. · 100W + 100W The two internal amps will produce a maximum of 100W + 100W/4. X Y Z X LIMITER indicator This indicator lights up when the level of the signal output from the power amp section reaches the maximum and the limiter is activated. Adjust the ST OUT K and appropriate fader so that the indicator lights up for only a short while when the signal reaches the maximum level. Note: The indicator lights up or flashes for a longer duration if the power amp section is significantly overloaded, which could result in malfunction. Avoid such a situation. EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12--Owner's Manual Control panel 15 s POWER indicator [ POWER indicator This indicator will light up when the power of the EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12 is turned on. s Other indicators and controls [ ` s YAMAHA SPEAKER PROCESSING \ ON/OFF switch This switch enables you to compensate the low range of the speakers. The low range balance when this switch is on varies depending on the speakers. First, check the low range balance by auditioning the resultant sound, then set this switch to on or off. a b c \ ^ Peak level indicator This indicator allows you to monitor the level of the signal output from the ST OUT jacks. The "0" indicator lights up when the output level reaches +4 dB. s STAND-BY ] ON/OFF switch This switch mutes (silences) the input signals from channels 1­16 (EMX5000-20) or channels 1­8 (EMX5000-12). The indicator will blink when this switch is on. a PHONES control This knob adjusts the level of the signal monitored via the PHONES jack (input/output panel D). b ST SUB OUT control This knob adjusts the final level of the signal sent from the STEREO bus to the ST SUB OUT jacks (input/output panel A). Note: The setting of this control does not affect signals that are sent from the STEREO bus to the ST SUB OUT jacks and the SPEAKERS jacks. ] c LPF control, ON/OFF switch This switch applies a low-pass filter to the signal that is output from the PFL/AFL bus to the MONO OUT jack. The frequency is indicated by the position of the slit in the control trimmer that is set into the panel above the switch. To adjust the frequency, use a slotted screwdriver to turn the control to the desired position.
