Experiment with notching out 900ish on your outputs. Like most Yamahas it is there.

André Léon Marie Nicolas Rieu is on place six Tour on Top 10 Tours of 2009. I called my self one of the best orchestra show ever made:

Ahh note from gear snob /
Aphex has some very affordable devices you might look into . Model 230 Master Voice Channel or Model 207D Tube Mic/Instrumental preamp or if you need a whole bunch which is probably the case with a Yamaha Model 1788A 8…

Hello,
While I neither think the Yamaha M7 is a piece of "crap", nor do I think it's the best console out there. It is what it Fk'g IS. Until recently, there weren't a whole lot of Digital Consoles out there, and the ones…

I agree about the pre's being dark.
I have been using an M7 for several years now and often use a pair of Avalon 737's and a DCL 200 to warm it up.

I do some work on an M7CL48, and these have been my observations about the console:
-Very Dark mic Pre's. We run almost ever channel with a HPF rolling off the bottom end. Once that's done, it sound quite workable. We haven't run any…

Do you get that little saying 'piss with the cock you have' (Trad).
I have an M7CL I use it.
I would like a PRO6 but I dont have one at the moment.
Be constructive, telling me how crap my M7CL is (IYHO) does not help me.
I learned…

It seems a little ironic, or at least shortsighted that a bunch of guys getting all concerned about sample rates and external converters could accuse ME of being a 'gear snob' - Me, I am interested in using gear that gets the job done, not…

Have you heard the SB168 pres ?? I doubt there better than those in the 5DRH...which can be improved with better clocking..
.
As you have a MY16AT card...try the Audient ASP008 w/digital out...and you tell us if you hear any improvement in the…
Dorin replied to Dan Anderson's discussion 'Yamaha M7CL - Mic Pre amps, Voice Channels and ADCs ??'
I support my own previous position and I would recommend you V3 Firmware upgrade and SB168-ES (ether sound) racks upgrade. You will fell the difference. Not only on the sound path quality but also you saving time and space.
Wish you luck.
Dan Anderson replied to Dan Anderson's discussion 'Yamaha M7CL - Mic Pre amps, Voice Channels and ADCs ??'
Ok some of you dont like the M7CL and cant seem to use it or get a good mix out of it - no prob.
These are your opinions - fine.
What I'm looking for is discussion on how to improve what I have guys.
I will buy a new digital desk or two over…

I am not a gear snob and have worked for 30 + years on all kinds of desks , Yes it is the engineer that matters . But a bad sounding desk is just that there is no snob about that! Yes you can get a good mix on a Yamaha desk but to choose one now…
Dorin replied to Dan Anderson's discussion 'Yamaha M7CL - Mic Pre amps, Voice Channels and ADCs ??'
I follow your page I see that you guys really hate digital.
I respect your knowledge and your work but I think you are 100% an analog lover. Nothing wrongs with that, it does all about flavor, taste, ears. You can cook in a rustic kitchen and you…

I have mixed hundreds of events over the past few years on on M7 and Its ease of use, quality of sound, on board processing and price point make it a wonderful choice. In my situation, it replaced an aging 4K. I was able to to get 56 inputs with…

Yes you can get a good mix on a Yamaha desk but to choose one now with all the options that exist at the same or better price points is not a good choice as a SOUND ENGINEER . The gear does matter not the price There is the NEW and The Known if you can get a better sounding desk and you are a good engineer it will be that much better won't it? If better mic's matter then better desks matter as much. Now that is my opinion in a field where our opinions end up being our mixes
