Digital terminals
Ethernet terminal allows communication with a PC using the control software
freely downloadable from the Yamaha website. Word clock in/out via BNC
connector with 75-ohm input termination. SPDIF digital two track audio input
and output. MIDI input and output.
Lamp connector (LS9-32)
This four-pin female XLR output jack supplies power to a separately
sold gooseneck lamp (such as the Yamaha LA5000).
OMNI Output
These XLR-3-32 male jacks are
used mainly for the Stereo L/R,
Mono, Mix, and Matrix output.
Each output has independent
delay and phase capability for
the compensation of speaker
alignment. The maximum output
level is +24dB by default, and
changeable to +18dB.
Mini-YGDAI slot
These slots allow Yamaha optional
mini-YGDAI I/O cards to be inserted for
expanding the number of input and output
in analog or digital format as required.
When using this card for bus-cascade, the
two consoles work as one with double
inputs. (LS9-32 has 2slots, LS9-16 has a 1slot.)
Analog Input
These are balanced
XLR-3-31 female jacks
for the analog audio
input signal from the
microphone level to line
level. Head amplifier
gain can be stored as
scene data.

There are 4 layers for changing the fader function.
The first layer is for controlling input channels
1 ~ 32 (1 ~16)*. The second layer is for controlling input
channels 33 ~ 64 (17 ~ 32)*. The third layer is for controlling
the master level of the MIX/Matrix output. The fourth layer is
for customizable faders allowing any frequently-used fader
to be assigned to this page.
MIX/MATRIX SELECTS Section
These buttons are for selecting the controlled MIX/MATRIX bus
for applying the setup on that bus. The send level from the input
to this selected output bus can be controlled by the SELECTED
SEND encoder of the SELECTED CHANNEL area. Double-pressing
this selected button changes the fader to control the send level
from the input to that selected output bus.
Master
STEREO L/R level is controlled via precision 100
mm motor fader.
USER DEFINED KEYS
These buttons activate assigned functions such as
recall a specific scene, access a specific menu
(bookmark), activate Mute Group or oscillator, set
delay time by tapping, etc. Channel information
can be reset to the default values as needed by
pressing the SEL button of that channel.

When this button is pressed, the parameters belonging to this channel are ready to be edited by
recalling to the SELECTED CHANNEL section. This button can be used for creating a Mute Group
or DCA Group. Some of the parameters including the phase, EQ and fader position can be reset to
the default value by using the SEL button and User Defined Key.
CUE button
This button activates cue monitor of respective channel. CUE buttons light alternately or multiply
through the channels based on the cue mode.
Meter

Fader
The level is controlled by a durable 100mm motor
fader. When Sends on Fader mode is selected, the
fader position corresponds to the send level from
each input to the selected output. When
Mix/Matrix is selected the fader position shows
the output master level. When a scene is recalled
the fader moves instantly to the target position or
moves with the applied fade time.
STEREO INPUT
There are four stereo inputs, and the input level
can be controlled using the encoder knobs. The
SEL key belonging to the stereo function
alternately switches between L and R.
