Keys to Live Sound Success

Main Features

A creative console for expressive engineering.

Through thorough analysis, review, and refinement of every detail of the circuitry and technology used, Yamaha CL series consoles delivered naturally superior sound plus a comprehensive range of "coloring" options that gave the sonic craftspeople who used them extraordinary creative freedom. The signal processors provided were plentiful and of the highest quality, including extraordinary Portico 5033/5043 EQ and compressor devices that brought Yamaha VCM technology together with the legendary talents of Rupert Neve. The platform was pure and natural, so the engineer could create and deliver the ideal sound.

Efficient, enjoyable operation.

A truly useful sound reinforcement console is one that can keep pace with the rapidly and dramatically changing demands of live sound applications. Efficient, intuitive operation is essential. Yamaha’s acclaimed Centralogic concept is the core of a refined user interface that offers a new, unprecedented level of operating efficiency in the CL series, from visual feedback right down to the form and feel of the faders and controls. The CL consoles are also ready for seamlessly integrated remote control and offline editing via an Apple iPad® or other computer. Control is familiar and intuitive, while at the same time offering extensive freedom.

Scalable, versatile network capabilities.

Network capabilities are rapidly becoming fundamental and indispensable in today’s fast-paced world of digital live sound. CL series consoles feature separate console and I/O rack components that communicate via the Dante™ network audio protocol, allowing fast, efficient design and deployment of capable systems from the most basic to the dazzlingly complex. The ability to add Lake® processing via expansion slots also adds to the system’s versatility and adaptability to the widest range of mixing needs.
