Raising the bar for compact digital mixers
The DM3-D is a compact Dante-equipped digital mixing console with versatile capabilities that make it perfect for a wide range of applications. The DM3 offers superb sound quality, fast and easy setup and operation, and professional-level features.
The word “compact” is often associated with limitations, and in the sound reinforcement world, often implies compromises in functionality, connectivity, or sound quality, and sometimes all three. Until now choosing a compact console has almost invariably been a matter of what you’re willing to sacrifice to get the capabilities you need in the space you have. The new DM3 series of mixing consoles shatters this stereotype, offering superb sound quality, fast and easy setup and operation, and professional-level features for live sound, streaming, and live or home recording and music production—a combination unmatched in any other mixing console this size. In an ever-changing world that constantly presents new challenges as well as opportunities, DM3 mixing consoles give you the power and flexibility to do more with than you ever imagined with a compact digital console.
A legacy of sonic purity
The ideal starting point for any audio engineering endeavor is transparent, uncolored sound. All Yamaha mixers are built on that philosophy, with the goal of allowing engineers to capture the on-stage sound accurately, without coloration, and then add creative touches as required.
Capable of sampling rates as high as 96 kHz despite its compact size the DM3 Series continues this legacy of sonic purity, offering you the perfect starting point for mixing, recording, live streaming, or even installed applications.
Simple. Intuitive. Powerful.
Perhaps the most significant advantage of a digital console is the ease of operation and accessibility of powerful functions and features that would otherwise require a higher level of user experience as well as more outboard gear to actualize in an analog setup. The DM3 Series exemplifies a “less is more” design philosophy, utilizing a 9” touchscreen and a single Touch & Turn knob for managing most of the console’s operations, resulting in a user experience reminiscent of a smartphone.
There was a little glitch with dispatch, I wasn't bothered but the guys at mix foundation reached out to me when they noticed and got it fixed up, I really appreciated the phone call.
I have a complex set up for my home sound system enjoying playing my records over 2 decks, 10 speakers providing sounds in various rooms (and 3 amps to run them), and of course a bass, and wanting various input sources (computer, decks, radio, usb etc). When my valve linestage died, I needed something to run this complex system or had to rethink the whole set-up. I looked at pre-amps, but all had limited inputs or were very pricey to meet my needs...then someone suggested a mixer and the Allen & Heath ZED-10 is truly multipurpose! It gives me so much more versatility than a pre-amp in the way I can run the system, and I still have spare input sources available. Everything is sounding great, and I can adjust/equalize the different inputs (which I was not able to do before). In my opinion for the price tag you really get great quality and value for money. Note: I'm not an audio expert so apologies if the terminology used is not the best.
