PM1D
RELEASED: 2003
CODE_NAME: La Foret
While the 02R was taking the studio market by storm, Yamaha engineers had begun to direct their efforts towards creating a digital PM-series live sound console. The result was the groundbreaking and history-making PM1D. The PM1D was the first digital PM-series live sound console, with separate control surface, DSP engine, and I/O components in a system that was both versatile and highly resistant to external noise and interference. The PM1D was designed with plug-in card based analog I/O, and when the refined head amps designed for the analog PM5000 were subsequently made available in card format, the PM1D took another step forward in terms of sound quality. Two DSP engines could be connected in "mirror mode," and redundant cable connections were accommodated as well, for extremely high reliability. With comprehensive functionality and ample I/O, particularly the 48 mix and 24 matrix output buses, the PM1D was an appealing solution for many demanding high-end applications. The PM1D offered an ideal blend of sonic quality, functionality, operability, and reliability.

PM5D
RELEASED: 2004
CODE_NAME: Vegas (Vegas3000)
The PM5D was created in response to user demand for a console that was somewhere between the PM1D, which was simply too much console for many smaller applications, and the DM2000 that was being used in situations that didn't require the capabilities of the PM1D. The PM5D offered the outstanding sound quality of the PM1D, but with half the channel capacity (the "5" in the product name actually represents "0.5"). Features like a full complement of analog inputs on the rear panel, plenty of space to apply a fader scribble strip, and other refinements made it easy for analog users to cross over into the world of high-performance digital mixing.

M7CL
DIGITAL MIXER
M7CL
RELEASED: 2005
CODE_NAME: Monaco (Monaco500)
Development of the M7CL began with the question: "are analog mixers really ideal when it comes to ease of use?" The adoption of a touch screen for control while eliminating the cursor keys, dial, and enter keys that had previously been used on Yamaha digital consoles proved that digital mixers could be just as easy, if not easier to operate. Furthermore, all primary control functions were concentrated into just two display pages. It was also the M7CL that introduced the Centralogic™ concept for the first time, allowing direct hands-on control of all channels from the console's center position.
