The DM7 is a versatile digital mixer that combines unparalleled sound quality with seamless operation and expandability that affords users a comfortable yet creative engineering workflow, while providing audiences with a memorable sonic experience. With its comprehensive suite of mixing tools and flexible expansion options, the DM7 series has you covered in any environment that requires top quality sound, and gives you the capability to meet the ever-changing demands of an expansive range of mixing applications.

Throughout Yamaha's long history of developing state-of-the-art digital mixers, there is one concept that we have consistently adhered too— the ideal starting point for sound creation is a totally natural, or “transparent” sound. This concept of natural sound is exemplified by the DM7 series high-end input section, producing a high-fidelity, uncoloured sound that serves as the engineer's canvass to colour, shape, and recreate, using the DM7 series built-in plug-ins, EQ, and dynamics. All in all, the DM7 series has evolved in every aspect to help engineers create their ideal sound.

Yamaha digital mixers are known for offering a high level of operability that professional users demand, staying up to date with the constantly evolving state of the art. The M7CL offers analogue-like operability; the CL series, a more refined operation with a brushed-up version of Centralogic; and the DM7 series puts an emphasis on intuitive operation and high efficiency via multiple displays and an advanced Selected Channel View.

Audio Engineers are far more than just concert staff doing “background work”. They may not be on stage, but they are an integral part of a live performance and require a high level of expertise, broad experience, and a sophisticated musicality that supports the artists' musical expression. Yamaha has been manufacturing musical instruments for over 130 years, and it is always a consideration during the design process to not only make a great sounding, eminently playable instrument, but also to focus on the form and aesthetic and how it will complement the artist playing it. In the DM7 series, we designed the consoles to be easy to operate so that mixing engineers can use them confidently and creatively even in challenging situations, while at the same time making them look sleek and attractive when they are being operated by the engineering artist helming them.

Engineers are required to deftly respond to the various demands of each artist and client on a daily basis to deliver the best sound possible to their audiences. Yamaha has enabled the DM7 series with cutting-edge technologies that allow engineers to focus on being creative in a limited time frame and establish a fast and efficient workflow without compromise.

Choosing and configuring an ideal system setup depends on the operator, the venue, and the type and magnitude of an event. The DM7 series allows users to tailor their system to their preferences and to streamline their workflow with compatible devices and dedicated software.
