Yamaha 02R & 03D Applications Guide
Introduction 1 Introduction This Applications Guide provides detailed examples of real-life 02R and 03D recording systems. The application diagrams show exactly what equipment is needed for each system and how to connect and make the relevant settings. The 02R and 03D feature as the main components throughout the applications, with various equipment by other manufacturers introduced to form complete systems.
2 Introduction Fostex D-90 8-track Digital Recorder The Fostex D-90 is a digital hard disk recorder featuring 8-track simultaneous recording and playback and ADAT I/O as standard. Fostex RD-8 Digital Multitrack Recorder The Fostex RD-8 Digital Multitrack Recorder uses the same eight-track digital format as the Alesis ADAT, making it fully compatible. Digital I/O, Sync I/O, and meter bridge connections are also compatible with those of the ADAT.
02R DIGITAL RECORDING CONSOLE
5 Part 1: 02R Applications System Operating Notes 02R • 02R interface cards must be screwed securely in place. Do not leave the screws out after installation as the cards will not be grounded correctly. • If a crackling noise can be heard, make sure not more than one device is set to internal wordclock. One device should be set for internal wordclock (master) and all other devices should be set to external wordclock (slave).
6 02R Applications • In a multiple ADAT system with no BRC, Control Slave ADATs must be powered up before the Control Master ADAT, because when the Control Master ADAT is powered up it checks how many Control Slave ADATs are connected, allocates them device numbers, and automatically sets the system wordclock.
02R Applications 7 Akai DR8 & DR16 • When a track is armed for recording, the DR8 or DR16 will normally try to take its wordclock source from that track’s input. To prevent this, in the Digi submenu set Auto Sync to Off. Note that the Auto Sync setting is not memorized when the DR8 or DR16 is turned off, although it can be stored as part of a project. 02R Optional Interface Cards To interface the 02R with digital multitrack equipment, optional interface cards are required.
8 02R Applications Wordclock Connection and Termination For correct operation it is essential that wordclock cabling be terminated correctly. The 02R features a wordclock termination ON/OFF (75Ω) switch. Wordclock IN and OUT connections use BNC connectors. Wordclock is a TTL signal. Three wordclock distribution examples are shown below. Note the 75Ω wordclock terminator switch settings. 1.
02R Applications 9 Even though some systems appear to work okay with several digital audio devices not sharing a common wordclock (i.e., all devices set to their own internal wordclock), digital audio data will not be processed correctly. In some systems this problem will be very audible. In others it may cause subtle distortion. Be aware of this. In a system where all devices share a common wordclock, it is important that all devices be powered on even if just one or two devices are being used.
10 02R Applications 1 The Four Slots This section of the Word Clock Select display indicates the type of interface cards installed in the four slots. The following are possible: TASCAM adat AES/EBU YAMAHA CASCADE ANALOG No Connection 2 Wordclock Source Capable Inputs This section of the Word Clock Select display is used to set the 02R’s external wordclock source. The four options to the left of each SLOT box correspond to the inputs that are available via that particular slot.
02R Applications 11 This section of the Word Clock Select display is used to set the 02R’s internal wordclock rate. The following options are available. INT 48k INT 44.1k In this example the internal sampling rate is set to 48 kHz, as shown by the highlighted box. The 02R’s wordclock source is set to one of these two internal options by selecting either 48k or 44.1k with the cursor buttons, and then pressing the ENTER button.
12 02R Applications 1 02R with One ADAT (Timecode on Tape Track) This application shows how the 02R can be used with one Alesis ADAT to create a 24-input, 8-track digital recording system. As shown in Figure 1, track eight of the ADAT has been striped with SMPTE timecode. This is then fed to the 02R’s SMPTE TIMECODE input using a phone jack to phono cable. The eight digital tape returns and 24 Mic/Line inputs provide up to 32 inputs at mixdown.

Three wordclock distribution examples are shown below. Note the 75Ω wordclock terminator switch settings. 1.
60 03D Applications Wordclocks When several digital audio devices are configured in a system, it is essential that they are all synchronized to a single wordclock source. This is not SMPTE or MIDI timecode synchronization. Wordclock synchronization refers to the synchronization of the digital audio processing components inside each digital audio device. Typically, one digital audio device acts as wordclock master and all other devices work as wordclock slaves.
03D Applications 61 AUTO NAVIGATE—This function checks all possible wordclock sources and then displays a dialog box recommending a suitable source.

64 03D Applications 23 03D with DA-38 (Timecode on Tape Track) This application shows how the 03D can be used with a Tascam DA-38 to create an 18-input, 7-track digital recording system. As shown in Figure 23, track eight of the DA-38 has been striped with SMPTE timecode. This is then fed to the Midiman Syncman Plus, which converts the SMPTE to MTC and feeds it to the 03D. The seven digital tape returns and 18 Mic/Line inputs provide up to 25 inputs at mixdown.

03D Applications 81 Sound Localization & Sound Image Control (Using Hass Effect) Using the bus assign, the main PA sound can be positioned to match that of the sound source. Delays in multiple speaker systems can be compensated using the bus output delays (Hass Effect). To achieve the Hass Effect, a small delay must be used in addition to the delay used to compensate for speaker distance.
82 03D Applications Dynamic Sound Image Control (Using Surround Pan) In addition to sound localization, sounds can also be moved around to make novel sound effects in a performance or theme park. Sounds can also be positioned using the 5.1 surround pan function (i.e., localizing sounds using volume, instead of the Hass Effect, which was introduced on the previous page). The difference with using pan is that sounds are localized using actual level changes.
03D Applications 83 Hall Simulation (Applying Reverb Ambience) In city halls and churches with dead acoustics, a more natural ambiance can be created by adding reverb to sub-speakers, while using the main stereo speakers for the direct sound. In the following example, hall reverb programs are selected for both effects processors, with one feeding the front sub-speakers, the other feeding the rear sub-speakers. No effects are applied to the stereo front speakers.
