Introducing the MTX3

• A signal processor suitable for small or mid-sized 

installed systems

The MTX3 is a signal processor suitable for small or mid-
sized systems such as retail establishments or banquet halls. In 
addition to a 26 ch. x 8 ch. matrix mixer, it provides 3-band 
parametric EQ, compressor/gate, auto gain control, eight pri-
ority duckers, and four feedback suppressors. For the output 
stages, it provides numerous high-performance high-quality 
processors, such as 4-band parametric EQ, delay, and speaker 
processor.

• Newly-developed “YDIF” digital audio transmis-

sion format

“YDIF” is a digital audio transmission format that uses Ether-
net cable to send and receive up to 16 channels of audio and 
word clock. Up to four MTX3 devices can be connected to 
expand the number of input/output channels (Cascade mode) 
and XMV series power amps can be connected to convey digi-
tal audio signals without loss (Distribution mode) via Ethernet 
cables up to 30 meters long.

• Versatile input/output and SD memory card slot

In addition to eight high-quality monaural mic/line inputs and 
two stereo line inputs, a “YDIF” connection from another 
MTX3 device can allow up to 16 channels of input. An SD 
memory card slot for playback is also provided; allowing 
MP3/WAV audio files saved on the SD memory card to be 
played back. In addition to eight channels of analog monaural 
output, a maximum of 16 channels of digital audio can be out-
put via a “YDIF” connection.

• Support for external controls

By connecting a “DCP” series dedicated wall-mounted control 
panel to the [DCP] connector, you can easily control the vol-
ume of multiple zones or switch presets. Daisy-chain connec-
tion via Ethernet cable allows up to eight “DCP” series control 
panels to be connected. The total cable length from the MTX3 
to the farthest control panel can be up to 200 meters, and 
power is also supplied, allowing you to place the control panel 
in the ideal location for the room.

• Two built-in effect processors

Two effect processors are built-in, and can be easily used in a 
party room or banquet hall. You can easily obtain effects such 
as reverb or karaoke echo without needing to add dedicated 
effect processors.

• Dedicated “MTX Editor” application software for 

designing the entire system

“MTX Editor” is application software for editing the parame-
ters of the MTX3. Using operating screens that reflect the 
workflow of designing the installation, this software makes it 
easy to design a system and make (or adjust) settings. A 
speaker library of Yamaha-manufactured speakers is also 
built-in, making it easy to choose settings that will maximize 
the performance of your speakers.

• iPhone app support

A dedicated iPhone app makes it easy to control the volume 
and manage presets in the same way as when using the dedi-
cated wall-mounted control panel. You can use your iPhone/
iPod Touch to easily control the sound system of a retail loca-
tion or a banquet hall.

MTX Editor is software for the Windows operating system that 
allows unified construction and control of systems that use the 
MTX series.
