History & design
The Yamaha DM1000 is a 19-inch rack-mount digital production console, introduced in 2003 as the compact version of the DM2000. It handles 48 mixing channels at sampling rates up to 96 kHz, with eight group buses, eight auxiliary sends and a main stereo bus.
The surface carries 17 touch-sensitive 100 mm motorised faders spread across several layers (inputs 1-16, 17-32, 33-48, master, plus dedicated Remote layers for controlling digital audio workstations). Each channel offers four-band parametric EQ and dynamics processors; four internal multi-effect processors round out the processing. Local I/O includes sixteen mic preamps and digital inputs/outputs, expandable through two Mini-YGDAI slots (16-in/16-out per card: ADAT, AES/EBU, MADI, analog).
The DM1000 was followed by a Version 2 and then the DM1000VCM, the latter adding the Virtual Circuitry Modeling (VCM) processing from the flagship range. Software control runs through Studio Manager and the DM1000 Editor application.
