Pride of place for Yamaha, however, went to the PM5D. Launched only five months ago, the desk is already gaining widespread acceptance. The company is now drawing attention to increased connectivity available on all the digital desks in its fleet via Cobranet, Anet, EtherSound (via the Auvitran card), MADI etc. Main features include 64-channel input, 24-channel output mix, two stereo, eight matrix, eight mute groups and eight DCAs.
