Introduction The MTX Setup Manual explains how to create setups using the MTX and MTX-MRX Editor. As examples, we will provide simple explanations of the typical setups described below. For detailed parameter settings, refer to “MTX-MRX Editor User Guide” and to the owner’s manual and installation manual of the XMV, MTX, DCP, MCP1, and PGM1. When you install MTX-MRX Editor, the five example files described here will be found in the following folders. 32-bit operating system C:\Program Files\Yamaha\MTX-MR
Introduction Example 2) High audio quality system with XMV and YDIF connections (digital connections) This repeats the system of example 1, replacing the amps with an XMV series unit.
Introduction Example 3) Using cascade mode to add MTX input channels (analog connection) Cascade mode allows the matrix buses to be shared between MTX units. This mode lets you use two MTX units to increase the number of inputs, and output the combined inputs to a single amp. In cascade mode, audio cannot be transmitted to the XMV via YDIF.
Introduction Example 4) A system using Dante In this example, existing amps continue to be used, while we set up a new system at a distant location, with connections made using Dante. The system using the existing amps is labeled System A, and the new system is labeled System B. In example 4, our explanation will be centered on the network settings. For more about increasing the number of mics, DCP settings, or presets, refer to example 2.
