The long wait for the Dante version of this mixer was well worth the wait, and I'm sure you as well Drew have been wanting to make this video for such a long time now! Thanks for showing everything this wonderful console has to offer in such a small form factor. I think it would be beneficial to others in future videos to go over the differences this console has in comparison to other mixers like the TF series, and although a different family of consoles, the X32/M32 as well since I learned the Behringer and Midas consoles first before adapting to Yamaha's approach with their mixers. An example would be the "on" button is the same as "mute", the sends menu on the right side of the DM3 is what would be the equivalent to "sends on fader", and then how the new 2.0 firmware update allows you to break up the USB to 3 different inputs (13/14, 15/16, 17/18) similar to Behringer and Midas where on a Windows computer, you can change the speaker output device. Before firmware version 2, this was not possible on the DM3 and the console would show up as a single Line speaker output. Mac OS however I believe allows you to choose your USB ins/outs. Again, thanks Drew for your videos! I always rewatch a lot of them to refresh what I learned when needing to mix on my M32R 😊
I waited a year and finally found a Dante version back in April… last month I found a demo Tio1608-D2 I just love them…! They sound great and are so useful.
Great video. I have the DM3 standard and this video is by far the best insight into this board that I’ve seen. Your voice and explanation’s are far superior to the Yamaha tutorials. If I was going to suggest any videos on this desk it would be more in-depth tutorials on sends & returns, setting up monitors / iems, recording to usb etc. Yamaha have tutorials on these subjects but are not relatable as the guy doing them is dam annoying. Once again thanks for your time, love the channel.
I was hoping there’d be an update that includes DCAs. The A&H CQ recently released an update to include them. If Yamaha releases an update to include DCAs, I’m in! I really love having faders.
Super appreciate this Overview! You're always very informative and content-full! Would you be able to make a video on how to update to Ver 2.0? I'm having a hard time updating the Dante firmware along with the rest. I had to revert back to 1.13. Thanks again!
Drew, Are you able to route/remove the Delay (FX2) from the LR and send to the Reverb (FX1)? Like you’ve shown us in the past with the M32R? If yes, how would you do it? A video on virtual soundcheck setup with DM3-D and a video on using the new “Inserts” feature on V2 would be cool. I can see a lot of potential for Waves Superrack to be utilized to solve for the lack of Dugan Auto Mixer and using plug-ins live. Not sure about the latency though - might be too high. Yamaha got a lot of things right with this board but still missing a few key features here or there that could’ve made it a X32/M32 killer, IMO. I love mine tho.
Thank you Drew for the nice overview. Your explanations are always very helpful. Could you perhaps briefly explain how you would loop in an old analog compressor, for example (outboard gear). I do it with two mono channels (one mix bus), send and return, but that always uses up 2 channels. Is there a more elegant way to do it? Many thanks and greetings from Belgium.
It's been the same situation for the TF series of consoles also. Hoping for an update in the future, but my guess is that it's a processing power issue.
Dear Mr Drew. Is it possible to cascade 2 unit of the DM3 to have 32 channels (16 from unit #1 & another 16 from unit #2), plus, having 32 multitracks? If that is possible, how do u connect & set it up?
It's a slick GUI, but I don't think a lot of people would pay twice as much as you would for an XR18 and an iPad. I suppose it's targeted at a different market. Dig the stash Drew, it suits you!
Thanks man, the stash started as a joke to see how long it would take my kids to make fun of me. 😅 Yeah the pricing on the DM3 is higher than the X-Air, but for venue's needing Dante connectivity, it is a sweet deal. I see this being pretty popular for the corporate gig market with a lot of talking heads on stage.
@@DrewBrashler That´s exactly the reason I´ve bought one for... the small jobs for just a bunch of people talking - simple PA, some mics, some audio playback... for every larger jobs you will also bring an larger console. I will also use this console as an sub-console for broadcasting, where you have for example an already made mix and you have to add commentators. Perfect size for this. Sadly the console is missing an Dugan where all the corporate jobs would benefit from 😕
Easy, easy, easy. Sadly Yamaha does not have one of the DM3 series that starts at 16 channels plus the addition of 8 channels in 8 channels, 16, 24, 32 etc.
I own a DM3D and love it, but one issue is that you can't stereo link channels as you can on the TF Series. (Currently, I'm using the FX return channels for my two stereo synths in the studio, but when you link two mono channels as a group you can't CUE them as a group.)
Also because the Yamaha DM3 is quite pricey with fewer channels , others at the same price might be more channels to offer. Unless its for a pub or small event.

I'm so stoked you are doing this series of training videos!!!! I own two of these and I will use these videos to train my team. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing!! Thanks for this video

Yamaha DM 3 digital mixer is Amazing , small & cute easy to carry . Can do everything as their seniors with stage box.
It is great! I'm glad I picked one up!
I waited a year and finally found a Dante version back in April… last month I found a demo Tio1608-D2 I just love them…! They sound great and are so useful.
Can you do a comparison video demonstrating the difference between the Yamaha DM3 and A&H CQ-18T?
The more videos the better it is !
I use the DM3s on a weekly basis for concerts. It’s a brilliant small control surface.
Fanatic presentation! Please do more videos on dm3 operations.
Thank you
Well done, great video. Thank you, Drew

This board is pretty much the same as a Yamaha TF if were being honest. Just more routing options

The DM3 has a new firmware update which adds INSERT function (Pre EQ, Pre Fader, Post ON) and 2 new USB interface modes.
Yamaha should add DD automixer on next update!
Hey can you do a video on using the DM3 and the VST rack
Drew,

hello good time Thank you for your training
My question is, what kind of preamp is used in this mixer?🙏🙏
Why it is called 22 channel mixer, but have only 16 inputs.
Touch screen response, especially in the eq section is really bad. I wonder if this will be fixed in the upcoming updates.
Thank you Drew for the nice overview. Your explanations are always very helpful. Could you perhaps briefly explain how you would loop in an old analog compressor, for example (outboard gear). I do it with two mono channels (one mix bus), send and return, but that always uses up 2 channels. Is there a more elegant way to do it? Many thanks and greetings from Belgium.
so far, so good
And if you give us a de-esser on DYN1 and Dugan for 16 Channels, it would be a great desk.
Why there are only 15 GEQ available bands while it has 31 GEQ bands?
It's been the same situation for the TF series of consoles also. Hoping for an update in the future, but my guess is that it's a processing power issue.
@Drew - will there be a video on the Allen & Heath CQ-18T digital mixer?
Also, will you be creating a preset pack for the CQ?
could you do a how to update a dm3 please

You are comparing a digital console with a rack to use with an iPad. You don't know much about this topic, do you?

Excellent video. Any chance of making one showing how to update FW please?
Sure! I'll add that to the list, but it will be around a month or so before it gets posted.
Also because the Yamaha DM3 is quite pricey with fewer channels , others at the same price might be more channels to offer.
Unless its for a pub or small event.
Which others have more channels, are digital and hybrid, have Dante, and are they worth the same or less?...give me the name and I'll buy it now!
here I was thinking I was going to watch a movie
Whether the faders become send to fader when the mix bus is selected?
Behringer x32 rack vs Yamaha DM3 ?
Can you create sub mix groups that get sent to the stereo out?
Is there a chance to extend the outputs? 8 Outs are too less for my need (4 stereo IEM plus at least one stereo pair for PA).
Can you do tutorials for the Allen & Heath Avantis?
I would love to do some, I wish I had an Avantis to work with!
How does it compare to TF ?
This video can dubbed in Hindi language as sir😊
I just added an auto-translation for the subtitles for Hindi. I hope this helps!
No copy and paste?
