Elegant, Efficient, and Eminently Practical

Everything you need for hands-on mix control is right where you need it. The PM5D V2 physical control surface offers direct access

to all of the major functions you’re likely to need for just about any real-world application. And if you’re using one or two DSP5D

Digital Mixing System units for I/O and DSP expansion, you get seamless, comprehensive control directly from the PM5D V2 panel.

Mic Preamp Controls

While the PM5D V2 manual microphone preamplifiers have

physical phantom power, pad, gain, and insert switching

controls, the PM5D-RH’s recallable mic preamplifiers allow

access to the same parameters via the console’s encoders

and software. Both models offer peak and signal indication

LEDs for easy visual input level monitoring. If you’re

connected to a DSP5D Digitial Mixing System you have

complete control of its mic preamps directly from the

PM5D V2 console as well.

Input Patching

Although physical input jacks 1 through 48 on the rear panel of the PM5D

are connected to the corresponding internal channels by default, digital

patching provides total assignment freedom. You won’t have to run around to

physically re-patch cables whenever you need to reconfigure the system. The

same goes for the inputs on a connected DSP5D Digital Mixing System. On-

screen patch displays allow the system’s inputs and outputs to be patched to

appropriate I/O points and you can also assign and display channel names

for easy identification. Patch setups you might want to use again can be

stored in the patch library for instant recall at any time.

Channel Strip Controls

1Layer Select Keys

The CH 1-24 and CH 25-48 layer select keys

determine whether the console’s 24 physical mono

channel strips control channels 1 through 24 or 25

through 48. Additional layers can be accessed when

the PM5D is connected to one or two DSP5D units.

2ENCODER ON Key

Turns encoder assigned functions on or off. For

example, it can be used to switch the send to the

mix bus on or off.

3PRE Key

Selects pre or post mix send.

4Rotary Encoder

The function of the channel strip rotary

encoders is determined by the ENCODER MODE

keys (Refer to the Encoder Mode & Fader Flip

Keys at the opposite page). They can function as

mix send level controls, channel pan controls,

head amplifier gain or attenuation controls, or

as alternate-layer level controls.

5 TO STEREO, GATE, and COMP

Indicators

The TO STEREO indicator lights when the

channel signal is feeding the stereo mix bus. The

GATE indicator lights when the channel gate is

closed, lights dimly during gate attack or decay,

and goes out when the gate is open. The COMP

indicator lights when the channel compressor is

applying gain reduction, lights dimly during

compressor attack or decay, and goes out when

no gain reduction is being applied.

6SEL Key

Assigns the corresponding channel to the

console’s SELECTED CHANNEL control section

and to the built-in LCD display. The SEL keys can

also be used to assign channels as stereo pairs.

7Channel Name Display

This 4-character display shows the assigned

name for the corresponding channel. The name

dims when the channel is muted.

8CH ON Key

Turns the corresponding input channel on

or off.

9Meter

A 6-point LED meter displays the channel

input level.

)DCA Indicators

The console’s input channels can be

assigned to any of 8 DCA. The DCA LEDs

indicate the DCA faders to which the channel

is assigned.

!MUTE Indicators

Input channels can be assigned to eight

mute groups for versatile mute control. The

MUTE LEDs indicate the mute groups to

which the corresponding channel is

assigned.

@RCL and MUTE SAFE Indicators

The RCL SAFE LED lights when the channel is set to the

recall safe mode so that it will not be affected by scene

recall operations. The MUTE SAFE mode prevents the

channel from being affected by mute group operations.

#Channel Fader

These very smooth and quiet 100mm motorized faders

control and display the channel input level, or the send level

to the selected mix bus when the FADER FLIP mode is on.

$CUE Key

Sends the channel signal to the cue bus for monitoring

according to the currently selected cue mode: LAST CUE,

MIX CUE, or SOLO and various function settings.

Stereo Input Channels

The stereo input channels are essentially the

same as the mono input channels, except that

they have stereo level meters, and ST IN 1-4 and

FX RTN 1-4 keys that assign the strips for stereo

input channel or stereo effect return operation.

ENCODER MODE & FADER

FLIP Keys

The ENCODER MODE keys determine the

function of the rotary encoders at the top of the

console’s channel strips: send level to each of

24 mix buses, channel pan, input gain of the

recallable head amps in the PM5D-RH V2 (or

connected remote recallable head amplifiers)

or attenuation after A/D conversion, and input

fader level of alternate (unselected) layer. The

FADER FLIP key swaps the functions assigned to

encoders and faders. For example, if you

engage the FADER FLIP key when MIX SEND is

selected, the channel-strip faders adjust the mix

send level while the encoders adjust the

channel input level.

1EQUALIZER & HPF

A flexible 4-band equalizer section with high and low bands switchable for shelving or

peaking response, variable frequency and Q on all bands, and an independent variable-

frequency HPF. Since 8-band EQ is provided for output channels, UPPER and LOWER keys

are provided to assign control to the upper or lower four bands.

2STEREO

The STEREO section allows the currently selected channel signal (input, stereo input, effect

return, mix) to be routed to the stereo bus with pan control.

3COMPRESSOR

This is a full-featured compressor/expander/compander/de-esser module with independent

threshold, range, attack, release, knee and ratio parameters. Like the noise gate section, the

compressor section includes a six-segment gain reduction meter for convenient visual

monitoring.

4DELAY

Turns the channel delay on or off, and sets the delay time

from 0 to 1,000 milliseconds for the selected input

channel.

5GAIN/ATTENUATION/Ø

When the GAIN/ATT key is on the encoder adjusts the gain

of a recallable microphone preamplifier patched to the

input of the selected channel. When the GAIN/ATT key

indicator is off the encoder adjusts attenuation for the

selected channel. The Ø key inverts the phase of the

selected channel.

6NOISE GATE

Extremely versatile noise gate provides effective noise

suppression, ducking, and other gate functions. Extensive

control is provided with independent threshold, range,

attack, hold, and decay parameters, as well as key-ins and

key-in filters.

7GROUP

This section controls channel to DCA and MUTE group

assignments. The DCA keys assign the currently selected

input channel to one or more of the DCA faders, while the

MUTE keys assign the currently selected input channel to

one or more of the eight available mute groups. The

GROUP section also includes RECALL SAFE and MUTE

SAFE assign keys that engage or disengage recall safe

and/or mute safe status for the currently selected input

channel.

8CHANNEL SELECT

This section can be used to select the channel to which the

SELECTED CHANNEL controls will apply. COPY and PASTE

function are also included, making it easy to copy all

parameters from one channel to any other channel.
