Description
The acclaimed CL series raised live digital mixing console performance to an unprecedented level of refinement with evolved sound quality, operability, and functionality while maintaining the traditional values that have made Yamaha digital mixers industry standards. Core features and performance inherited directly from the CL series, including natural sound supported by sonically superb internal processing capabilities, operation that easily adapts to the demands of just about any working environment, and built-in Dante networking that facilitates flexible system configuration, have now been condensed and concentrated into the compact QL series digital mixing consoles. QL series consoles offer all-in-one mixing, processing, and routing capability for small to medium scale live sound, corporate speech events, installations, and much more.
Your All-in-one Mixing Solution
The Yamaha QL5 64-channel digital mixer is packed with many of the core features of their acclaimed CL Series, making it your ideal compact all-in-one solution for mixing, processing, and routing audio. Loaded with premium internal processors, including stellar-sounding EQ and dynamics tools developed in cooperation with Rupert Neve Designs, the QL5 will bring out the best sonic character in any source. With built-in automixing functionality, Dante network support, and remote control via your tablet or computer, the Yamaha QL5 is the perfect sound reinforcement solution for small- to medium-scale live sound, corporate speech events, broadcast, and more!
Pure, natural sound and powerful processing
In order to produce great mixes, audio engineers need to have uncolored, natural sound as a starting point. That's why the Yamaha QL5 features top-shelf circuitry and components — to provide you with pristine audio from input to output. And when you're ready to get creative, the QL5's powerful Virtual Circuit Modeling (VCM) technology effectively captures various pieces of analog gear right down to their individual components (including models influenced by the 1176, LA-2A, and EQ-1A), injecting your mix with an abundance of authentic-sounding analog vibe. Of course, the crown jewel of the QL5's analog emulations is its VCM versions of the Rupert Neve Designs Portico 5033 EQ and 5043 compressor, developed in collaboration with Rupert Neve Designs! You also get Yamaha REV-X reverb processors and a graphic EQ for your buses.

Revolutionary Dan Dugan automatic mixer
The Yamaha QL5 comes armed with Dan Dugan Sound Design's revolutionary automatic microphone mixing technology. This remarkable processor, which can be loaded into up to 16 channels simultaneously, lets you automatically optimize your microphone gain distribution for speech applications. The result is smooth, natural gain control — the QL5 almost mixes itself! This is a lifesaver for a non-engineer volunteer who runs live sound in a house of worship or at a community event. This is especially useful in non-scripted situations, as it allows you to concentrate on the balance rather than having to chase talkers on the faders.

Refined control for smooth operation
When you're running live sound, you've got to move quickly! Well, Yamaha took this into account, making visibility and usability hallmarks of the QL5's design. First of all, the QL5's large, easy-to-navigate touch-panel display makes working in the dark child's play. You'll love the intuitive design of the QL5's Selected Channel interface, which provides you with a comprehensive overview of the parameters available to you for the channel that you're working on. On top of that, you get remarkably comfortable faders and a straightforward Touch-and-Turn knob, which make operating the QL5 a phenomenally smooth, efficient experience. You also get remote control and offline setup capability via your iPad or computer, adding even more refinement to an already state-of-the-art operating environment.
Link it up with built-in Dante networking
Network capability is essential in today's live sound applications, and the Yamaha QL5 has everything you need. By utilizing the widely-implemented Dante networking protocol, the QL5 is able to interface with other Dante-compatible devices to create systems of just about any scale or complexity. Additionally, the QL5's "Port to Port" feature allows its inputs and outputs to be used as elements in a larger system, providing you with unprecedented routing capabilities for front-of-house and monitor consoles. And you'll never have to worry about gain complications disrupting the balance of your mix, as the QL5's Gain Compensation feature ensures that the total gain sent out via the network remains constant, regardless of which device a signal is routed through. In other words, crank up the analog gain on a stage box, and Gain Compensation will automatically turn down the volume on the network so nobody hears the volume change.

Expand your system with mini-YGDAI slots
The Yamaha QL5 gives you plenty of opportunities for expandability, thanks to its mini-YGDAI expansion slots, which can accept more than 30 types of expansion cards. You can also connect multiple QL5s together via I/O cards such as the MY32-AE, to create powerful systems that offer massive channel counts. The QL5 can also be cascaded to other Yamaha digital consoles such as their CL Series, giving you unprecedented flexibility. On top of that, you can use a separately sold MY8-LAKE expansion card to infuse your QL5 with Lab.gruppen's Lake Processing technology — Mesa EQ, Ideal Graphic EQ, Linear Phase EQ, and other processing features that are capable of fine-tuning your system in a wide variety of environments.

Two-track recording and multitrack options
If you're wanting to record your live shows, the Yamaha QL5 makes it easy. You can either make a 2-track recording straight to a standard USB flash drive (in MP3 format), or you can create a full-blown multitrack recording with Nuendo Live or your DAW choice via Dante. Multitrack recording is great for performing "virtual sound checks" when the band isn't available, and for making professional recordings of your live shows. On top of that, you can play back sound files (in MP3, AAC, or WMA format) from your flash drive, for convenient playback of background music or sound effects without the need for extra playback equipment.

Tight iPad and computer integration
Thanks to Yamaha's state-of-the-art QL StageMix iOS app, it's possible to mix on the QL5 remotely using your iPad. Imagine being able to mix from the audience's or performer's positions — you can ensure that your show sounds great in every corner of the venue! You also get support stays that will support an iPad on the left side of the QL5's panel, sleekly integrating the iPad into the QL interface. You can also use the QL Editor app, which is compatible with both Macs and PCs, to set up the QL5's parameters via your computer, both on- and offline. You can use the QL Editor to conveniently manage scene and patch list data, for example, and keyboard entry capability can be a huge advantage for typing channel names, etc. One thing's for sure: both of these innovative apps are great timesavers!

Exactly what I needed
This rmx1000 is a beast! The effects are killer, and it’s built like a tank. Fast shipping too. couldn’t be happier!
I started with a single speaker to test the waters, but Odyowave’s excellent service convinced me to place a larger order. Every purchase since has been smooth, and their team is always responsive and helpful.
Got the rx3 for my DJ setup, and it’s been awesome. The features are great, it’s really easy to use, and everything works perfectly. Definitely recommend it!
Ordered the Yamaha MTX5D and a few other things, and everything came in perfect condition. Shoutout to Kelly for being so helpful throughout—it made the whole experience smooth!
We upgraded our church sound system with ShowMatch speakers, and it’s been a huge improvement. Everyone keeps saying how much better the sermons and music sound. The team at odyowave made the whole process easy too.
The service at ODYOWAVE is top notch. I only deal with them for most of my pro gear. All the other dealers have to take a back seat. Items come on time and in excellent brand new condition.
I recommend this company to purchase audio equipment from them, they are great in prices, support and delivery. They have a great sales team. Thank you ODYOWAVE
I ordered two CDJ3000s and a V10, and let me tell you, they’re incredible. Everything arrived quickly, setup was a breeze, and they’ve been perfect for gigs.
I’ve been getting equipment from odyowave for about a year now, and they never disappoint. The speakers sound amazing and work perfectly with my setup. Super reliable company!
We upgraded to the QL5 mixer for our theatre, and it’s been amazing. The sound quality is incredible, and it’s so easy for our team to use. It’s made a huge difference in our shows and events—totally worth it.
We got the JBL CBT1000 for our church, and wow, what a difference! The sound coverage is fantastic. It fills the whole room. Couldn’t be happier with this upgrade.
We ordered the wall plate for our hotel, and the process was seamless. It arrived on time, installation was straightforward, and it’s been a great addition to our AV setup.
