MTX3    Owner’s Manual

6

Getting Started

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha Matrix Processor MTX3. This manual will help you take full 

advantage of the superior functionality offered by the MTX3. After you have read the manual, keep it 

in a safe place for reference when needed.

• MTX3 Owner’s Manual (this document)

• Power cable

• Euroblock plug (16-pin), (1)

• Euroblock plugs (3-pin, with tab) (16)

• Cable ties (16)

Use MTX Editor to update the firmware of the MTX3 or check 
the firmware version. For details on operation, refer to the MTX 
Editor User’s Manual.
Download the latest firmware from the “Downloads” page on 
the following website.

This device is guaranteed to operate at an ambient temperature 
of 0 to 40 °C. If this device is mounted in an EIA rack together 
with other devices, heat from the various devices may cause the 
temperature inside the rack to rise, rendering this device unable 
to perform to its full potential. To ensure that heat does not 
accumulate inside this device, please ensure that the following 
conditions are met when rack-mounting it.

• If you plan to mount this device together with devices that 

tend to generate heat, such as power amps other than XMV 
series products, allow 1U or more of vacant space between 
this device and other devices. Also attach ventilation panels 
in this space or leave them open to ensure sufficient ventila-
tion.

• Leave the back of the rack open, and allow at least 10 cm of 

space between the rack and the wall or ceiling to ensure suf-
ficient ventilation. If the back of the rack cannot be left open, 
provide forced air cooling for the rack, for example by 
installing a commercially available fan kit. If you install a 
fan kit, leaving the back of the rack closed may provide more 
effective cooling. For details, refer to the owner’s manual 
provided with the rack or fan kit.

NOTICE

To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, 
damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices 
below.

 Handling and Maintenance

• Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo 

equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Other-
wise, the device, TV, or radio may generate noise.

• Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibration, or 

extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a 
heater, or in a car during the day), in order to prevent the 
possibility of panel disfiguration, unstable operation, or dam-
age to the internal components.

• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the device, 

since this might discolor the panel.

• When cleaning the device, use a dry and soft cloth. Do not 

use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-
impregnated wiping cloths.

• Condensation can occur in the device due to rapid, drastic 

changes in ambient temperature—when the device is moved 
from one location to another, or air conditioning is turned on 
or off, for example. Using the device while condensation is 
present can cause damage. If there is reason to believe that 
condensation might have occurred, leave the device for sev-
eral hours without turning on the power until the condensa-
tion has completely dried out.

• When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always 

turn on the power amplifier LAST, to avoid speaker damage. 
When turning the power off, the power amplifier should be 
turned off FIRST for the same reason.
