Sophisticated DSP processing
At Sweetwater, we're impressed by the DZR12-D's intelligent DSP processing. Yamaha's Advanced FIR-X tuning employs a combination of FIR filtering and corrective EQ to minimize phase distortion, ensuring smooth frequency response, stunning clarity, and accurate sound imaging. D-Contour is an intelligent multiband compressor that maintains the ultimate in clarity, even when you push the DZR12-D to its highest output level. D-Contour features two settings, FOH/Main and Monitor mode, allowing you to fine-tune the DZR12-D's sound based on your application. You also get DSP protection that safeguards your power supply, power amplifiers, and transducers against damage. Despite all this powerful DSP, the DZR12-D remains easy to use, thanks to optimized factory presets and an intuitive LCD screen.

Custom-designed transducers
The Yamaha DZR12-D is loaded with great-sounding, custom-designed transducers. Its high-frequency transducer includes a 2-inch voice coil and 1-inch throat compression driver, a titanium diaphragm, and neodymium magnet housed in a heat-resistant aluminum-cast frame. Its low-frequency transducer uses a large 3-inch voice coil, cast-aluminum frame, and powerful yet lightweight neodymium magnet to handle the chest-thumping low end that the DZR12-D delivers. The DZR12-D isn't just all about power, however. Its low-end response is tightly controlled, especially in the mid-bass and vocal range, assuring crystal-clear sound reproduction — even at cranked volumes.
Built-in Dante capabilities
Integrating the DZR12-D with Yamaha consoles and other Dante devices is a breeze. The DZR12-D features a built-in 2-in/2-out Dante interface, along with sample rate conversion, allowing 48kHz device compatibility. Benefit from simplified patching with Yamaha's CL/QL digital consoles from their I/O device display, while TF console users can select Quick Config for fast, easy setup. You can also combine the DZR12-D's Analog I/O with Dante I/O, supplying you with flexible routing and system configuration. Or use the Dante break-In and break-Out function to act as a simple I/O box. Beyond that, Yamaha’s ProVisionare Control software for Windows and ProVisionare Touch for iPad are also Dante compatible, giving you added remote management of your system.

Smart, ultra-flexible design
The Yamaha DZR12-D integrates with any configuration, thanks to its ultra-flexible design. Its rotatable horn allows vertical or horizontal mounting. Benefit from a 90° x 60° dispersion from a vertical position. Enjoy smooth, level coverage, by virtue of the DZR12-D's constant directivity horn — its innovative design minimizes the roll-off that conventional horns often produce.
High-power Class D amplifier
Loaded with 2,000 watts of Class D power, the DZR12-D is a beast. It delivers an impressive 139dB SPL, so go ahead and crank it up — the DZR12-D can take it. Enjoy maximum power, along with stable, worry-free operation, thanks to a universal switching-mode power supply. Beyond that, this amp was optimized to match the DZR12-D's transducers, ensuring top-tier sound quality.
