Yamaha's RIVAGE PM series — no-compromise digital mixing
The CSD-R7 console is part of the company's acclaimed RIVAGE PM digital mixing system, which is a top-seller here at Sweetwater. This ultra-flexible ecosystem includes control surfaces, DSP engines, I/O racks, and audio interface cards. The control surfaces are the core of the system, providing you with great-feeling faders, intuitive touch-panel displays, and Yamaha's celebrated Selected Channel section. All five control surfaces in the series boast similar functionality. If you're familiar with one, you'll have no trouble switching to another. The DSP engines are the "brain" of your RIVAGE PM system. They provide signal processing from top-tier creators such as Rupert Neve Designs and Eventide, along with system control. Beyond that, they're capable of transmitting and receiving up to 256 inputs/outputs of digital audio. The I/O racks house your system's physical connections. And they perform admirably, boasting Yamaha's transparent, natural-sounding Hybrid Microphone Preamplifiers with high-performance analog input stages, plus advanced digital sections with spot-on emulations of Rupert Neve Designs transformers and SILK processing circuitry. Finally, audio interface cards supply your analog and digital I/O and add TWINLANe, Dante, and MADI capabilities to your digital mixing system.
