    As well as a stereo 30 band graphic equalizer, YDG2030 Digital Graphic Equalizer has a high and low pass filter, and 4 notch filters which can be used to selectively “knock out” specific frequencies.Furthermore, the unit can operate at either 6 or 12dB cut/boost.
  • Page 5: Precautions

    If the battery voltage falls below a certain level, a “***WARNING*** LOW BATTERY” message will appear on the screen when the power is turned on. If this occurs, have the battery replaced by at a qualified Yamaha service center. Do not attempt to replace the battery yourself! Cautions 1.

    6 – Memory areas Memory areas How the memories are arranged in the YDG2030 The unit contains 40 memory areas which contain equalization settings, all of which are user-programmable. This allows you to set up and store frequently-used equalization set- tings which you can recall at any time.
  • Page 9: Using The Display

    Using the display The [DISPLAY]key Using the large LCD screen, your YDG2030 has several different ways of displaying set- tings, and being able to edit them. These different modes are accessed with the [DISPLAY] key, as shown: Press the [DISPLAY] key to change from one display to the next.

    Put more simply, if you wish to toggle a notch or filter on/off that is already selected, while in an equalizer, sweep or notch screen, just press the selector once. If it’s not selected, press the selector twice. YDG2030...

    Use the F encoder to select a character (0-9, A-Z, a-z + punctuation) and the [L/<] and [R/>] keys as cursor keys to determine which character will be edited. Use the [STORE] key as an easy way to enter a space. 9 – Utilities Y-485 COMM. I/O YDG2030...

    NOTE You can dump this data over MIDI to a MIDI data filer device (including a personal com- puter), or over the Y-485 network to a computer connected through the YAMAHA IFU485 interface. There is no need to set the unit into any special receive mode to receive bulk dump data from an external device.

    TUTORIAL In this section we will go over the setting up of the YDG2030, from the graphic equalizer and the filters, to the delay and input attenuation. The information is presented as a tutorial— from it, you should be able to pick up the techniques necessary to make settings for any sit- uation.
  • Page 16: Linking The L And R Channels

    (unless you want to)— all settings can be displayed in traditional graphic equalizer format on the screen. The YDG2030 has 30 bands per channel, each settable to ±12 or ±6dB (depending on the mode), dB steps.
  • Page 17: Using The Sweep Function

    When the sweep screen is exited, the last setting you made is remembered. The two examples given are suggestions of how the YDG2030 can be used. You may, of course, adapt your own methods of using graphic equalizers to working with the YDG2030.

    Likewise, if a particular frequency seems to get lost, you can increase its gain. This process is simplified greatly with the YDG2030, as a preset gain or cut can be swept through the entire frequency range using the F rotary encoder.
  • Page 19: Editing The Filters Graphically

    For the notch filters, use the Q rotary encoder to alter the Q of the notch. The figure shown is adjustable from 0.5 to 10.0 (10.0 is the narrowest). Of course, the HPF and LPF shelving filters do not take Q values. YDG2030...
  • Page 20: Setting Up The Input Level, Attenuation And Delay

    The YDG2030 can delay signals by up to 714 milliseconds (242m, about 800ft). You can input this information either directly as milliseconds, or as a distance in feet or meters (set your preference in the “Utilities”).
