WELCOME TO TC UNIT•Y
2
Congratulations on the purchase of your new TC Electronic UNIT•Y package, which
will revolutionize the way you work with your Yamaha 02R™ digital console.
Until now, plug-in cards for Yamaha 02R’s only served to customize the console to the I/O
requirements of the user. With the introduction of Unit•Y, TC has re-defined the use of your
mixer’s expansion slots, by adding sound processing to your possibilities.
Users already familiar with TC Electronic's Ultimate Sound Machines will rate the dynamics
processing, reverb and effects algorithms amongst their favorites. Integrating these effects
within the 02R environment presents a completely new way of looking at sound effect
design.
Using a 02R with a UNIT•Y card is not just like having an external effects machine, it’s
better: Audio is routed internally at full 24 bit resolution. You don’t have to worry about
automixes not being complete, system clock optimization or dither.
New equipment normally requires some user learning time, before it can perform at its best.
In this case the learning time has been spent at TC. We have learned how to operate the
02R in order to integrate the Unit•Y effects with the look & feel you already know.
The UNIT•Y plug-in card runs TC Electronic software on its own high speed DSP,
proprietary Co-processor, Host processor and other associated hardware circuits.
Digital I/O options may be added to the card, thereby enabling you to also extend the mixer
itself.
A standard 02R may handle up to 40 external inputs plus two Yamaha internal stereo
effects simultaneosly That is a total of 44 channels.
If a UNIT•Y card is fitted, up to 44 external inputs plus two internal Yamaha stereo fx plus
two internal TC stereo effects may be used simultaneosly, a total of 52 channels of audio!
Options
New functions may be added to the card. Options may include both hardware and
software.
New functions, details about the presets etc. will be announced at our web-site,
