Congratulations!
Your MV1000 is a first-class Yamaha product that will provide you years of high-
quality mixing performance if cared for and operated properly.
This product is designed for a variety of event-type applications, with features geared
towards mixing both speaking and music, and facilities for connecting video.
There are six microphone input channels, offering both balanced XLR, and phone
Jack connectors. l
Each microphone channel has its own high and low EQ controls, and a SPEECH/VO-
CAL switch which selects either a low-cut (rumble) filter or high quality digital echo
effects.
Also, when NOISE GATE is turned on, each microphone will be noise gated. This au-
tomatically switches off the channel when no sound is going through it.
Microphone compression is provided with adjustable threshold and ratio to even out
the levels of the microphones.
There are seven sets of stereo inputs for units such as CD players and tape decks, one
of which is a specialized “Background Music” (BGM) channel.
When BGM MUTE is turned on, just by operating one of the stereo inputs (such as
starting to play a tape), the background music (BGM channel) can automatically turn
itself off, until the tape has finished.
A SOURCE MUTE system can automatically reduce the level of any background mu-
sic (the SOURCE and BGM channels) while microphones 1 or 2 are being used
(called “ducking”, or “gain riding”), so DJ’s or announcers can always be heard, no
matter what other sound is going through the system while they are speaking.
There are two video inputs (for video cameras or players) and a video output, so the
operator can switch between the video sources to make recordings while the event is
occurring. Of course, the video will include a full stereo sound mix!
With two stereo MAIN OUT's, a stereo REC OUT, a stereo MONITOR OUT, two
MONO OUT’s and a headphone mix, the MV1000 has capability to provide output
and monitoring for everyone involved, from the audience and the sound engineer, to
the singers, musicians and speakers.
If this unit is going to be used by people other than yourself, please leave this manual
near the MV1000 so that it can be referred to if necessary.

Precautions
AVOID EXCESSIVE HEAT, HUMIDITY, DUST AND
VIBRATION
Keep the unit away from locations where it is likely to
be exposed to high temperatures or humidity—such as
near radiators, stoves etc. Also avoid locations which
are subject to excessive dust accumulation or vibration
which could cause mechanical damage.
AVOID PHYSICAL SHOCKS
Strong physical shocks to the unit can cause damage.
Handle it with care. If you are intending to move the
unit around to different events, we would recommend
that you invest in at least a 6U (6 rack-space) road case
to house it, and any other rack mount gear you may be
using, such as power amplifiers.
DO NOT OPEN THE UNIT, OR ATTEMPT REPAIRS
OR MODIFICATIONS YOURSELF
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer
all maintenance to qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Opening the unit and/or tampering with the internal cir-
cuitry will void the warranty.
MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF BEFORE MAKING OR
REMOVING CONNECTIONS
Always turn the power off, on the MV 1000 and all other
attached equipment (especially power amplifiers), prior
to connecting or disconnecting cables. This is important
to prevent damage to the unit itself as well as other con-
nected equipment, due to power surges.
If for some reason the MV1000 cannot be turned off,
turn the input fader of the channel you are connecting
right down first, and also the MAIN OUT 1, MAIN
OUT 2, MONO OUT 1 and MONO OUT 2 faders.
5.
HANDLE CABLES CAREFULLY
Always plug and unplug cables—including the AC
cord—by gripping the connector, not the cord.
CLEAN WITH A SOFT DRY CLOTH
Never use solvents such as benzine or thinner to clean
the unit. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT POWER SOURCE
Make sure that the power source voltage specified on
the rear panel matches your local AC mains supply:
U.S. & Canadian Model: 120V AC, 60Hz
U.K. Model: 240 V AC, 50Hz
General Model: 230 V AC, 50Hz
TURN-ON PROCEDURE
Always turn the MV1000 power on before turning on
the power to the power amplifier.
For a fuller explanation, see “Turning the power on” on
page 8.

Simple use
Setting up
In this section, you will learn the basics of how to use your MV1000. The topics covered are:
Setting up: finding a suitable place for your MV1000, connecting output from the MV1000,
connecting input to the MV 1000, and turning the power on.
Using the MV1000: Testing the microphone channels, setting up the effects unit, testing the
source and BGM channels, and sound mixing.
Finding a suitable place for your MV1000
As mentioned in the Precautions section at the beginning of this manual, find a place away from
high temperature and humidity, and somewhere where the unit will be stable. The use of a rack
or road case is strongly recommended, for maximum protection. To install the rack “ears”,
attach the screws (supplied) as shown in the diagram below. It is possible to install the “ears”
facing the back of the unit as well as the front.
O0 0000
The connection panel, which is initially installed at the rear of the MV 1000, can also be moved
to the top of the unit, where the connectors can be reached more easily. This operation is
described in “Moving the connection panel” on page 10.
However, PLEASE DO NOT PERFORM THIS OPERATION YOURSELF. Please take your
MV 1000 to your local Yamaha dealer, the retailer where you bought the product, or an electrical
service technician to perform the operation.
Connecting the output from the MV1000
A. Main speaker systems
Connect the MAIN 1 and/or MAIN 2 outputs to one or more amplifiers.
๑ The MAIN 1 and MAIN 2 outputs (39) use cannon (XLR) connectors.
« The main speaker system/amplifier is usually connected MAIN OUT 1, and other amplifi-
ers to MAIN OUT 2.
๑ Ifusing only amono (1 channel) amplifier, you can connect it to the L (or R) output channel
of the MV 1000, but you must open the lower panel and set MAIN OUT 1 to MONO.
B. Extra speaker systems
Connect MONO OUT 1 or MONO OUT 2 @9 to an amplifier, and attach the extra speakers to
that amplifier.
. MONO OUT 1&2 use 1/4" phone jacks.
๑ The extra speakers can be used as monitors (foldback) for the performers, or put in other
rooms such as dressing rooms. The MONO OUT jacks can also be used to connect to a sub-
woofer speaker system.

Simple use
C. Monitor speakers
Connect a power amp to one or both of the MONITOR outputs @, and the monitor speakers to
the power amp. If you are using powered monitor speakers, you can connect them directly to the
MONITOR outputs.
» The MONITOR outputs (40) use 1/4" phone jacks.
๑ The monitor outputs are supplied to provide a monitoring system for the sound operator.
Because both L and R outputs are provided, you can monitor in stereo.
Connecting the input to the MV1000
A. Microphones/wireless mics/electronic instruments (up to 6)
๑ Itis best to make these connections/disconnections while the MV 1000 is turned off. If this
is not possible, make sure the fader for the channel is all the way down.
๑ Because each pair of the inputs have different connectors, choose which input you use ac- ¢
cording to which connector it has.
๑ Normal (not wireless) microphones can be connected to any of the 6 microphone inputs 68,
and if the input has a PAD switch, switch it to “O dB”.
(1) If the microphone has an XLR connector, use inputs 1, 2, 3 or 4 on the connection
panel.
(2) If the microphone has a phone type plug, connect it to inputs 1 or 2 on the front
panel, or inputs 5 or 6 on the connection panel. Note that you cannot use inputs 1
and 2 on the front and the connection panel at the same time.
๑ Wireless microphones and electronic instruments (e.g. synthesizers) can be connected to
inputs 3, 4, 5 or 6. When connecting them, switch the PAD switch next to the connector to
“20 dB”.
B. Music sources
+ The SOURCE inputs 45) are intended for stereo music sources such as tapedecks, CD play-
ers, Laserdisc players, and VCRs. In fact, nearly anything that uses RCA plugs can be con-
nected.
๑ Itis best to connect/disconnect these sources while the MV 1000 is turned off. If this is not
possible, make sure the source fader for the channel is all the way down.
๑ If there is one unit (e.g. CD player) that is used primarily for background music, connect it
to the BGM inputs. Otherwise, connect the units to the three A inputs first, then the three
B inputs.
NOTE: If you connect two sources to SOURCE 1 A and B, or SOURCE 2 A and B, or
SOURCE 3 A and B, then you won’t be able to listen to them both at the same time.
Turning the power on
Please use the following order when turning on the MV1000.
1) Turn the power on for any wireless mic receivers, or electronic instruments, and anything
connected to the SOURCE inputs.
2) Turn on the MV1000.
3) Turn on the power amplifier(s).
If you must turn on or connect any of the sources or microphones while the MV 1000 is turned
on, bring the fader for that channel right down first.
