All user reviews for the Yamaha 01V

Not bad ...

UTILIZATION

Very practical!

SOUNDS

Well me, I had a 01v for 2 years ... to live it is very well ... but for the home studio:

=> I do not see how other users have found the preamps correct! surely they have not tried anything else! I possde mackie VLZ and now I can tell you that there is a world and the mackie is the mid-range! (I have also other preamp and I do not even speak!) I think they put preamps because c'tait required!

=> Medium and the effects are rather cold and metallic sound ... compare a Waves plugin instance ... you will understand!

=> Eq and compressors ... bof ... there is always a world between digital and analog EQ

OVERALL OPINION

It gnial level automation!

on the other hand, did not think this table is good for the mix! it's very mid-range preamp cot, indeed, eq and comp!
For the live: OK, it goes and it's convenient (memoires. ..)
for the studio: no
for the home studio: better to mix with plugins!!

It would probably a good control surface? ... (Does it still paramtrer => pm)

I do not vasi rpter the nime CHARACTERISTICS for both but only give our opinion based on the use made of it:
we have 2 synths / samplers (4 mono outputs each) a groove box, an electric guitar and keyboard connected to it.
is looking for a digital console with memory of scnbe, corretcs preamps, rack, and some internal effects processing dynamqiues.
Above all the good ...

UTILIZATION

Trs easy to use, to nitpick I would say it is a pity we can scan the menu tabs in one direction, but hey, it's really giving grain to the hens!
Functions are fast globalemnt ACCS, the home edition, although the screen is quite small enough for the machine functions, and automatic display mode is said paramtre very practical.
the manual is very well done for what I have to read, but we did not really need to be a little bit familiar with the consoles.

SOUNDS

Much has been said about the sound of this console, that silent cold, its effects taient dishes ...
I will not judge or compare, but for the material with which it is used, it is fine. So a good 10.
That said it does not use microphones or acoustic instruments, so nuanced ...

OVERALL OPINION

For a month, and it seems dj to have had all his life.
I say more?

For technical specifications, I will not metals above, you can find more prcis and comprehensive on the web.

The only point I would like to emphasize is that we can increase the number of inputs / outputs with option boards (adat etc ...)

Small point ngatif, we can not add one.
But the number of slot is deliberately restricted so as not concurencer other products in the range.
The other ngatif is the lack of integration on the way (too bad).

UTILIZATION

On this point proves to 01v very easy life.
It's true that when one comes from analog, the lack of knobs and direct ACCS may be some paramtres Drout, but After a few hours of use the b you really becomes docile ...
The user guide (included in 4 languages ​​(which is rare enough to be emphasis added)) is clear and prcis.
The number of outputs is sufficient for the home studio, especially if like me you couple with an 8-track recorder numriques via the adat expansion slot (it will give you extra 8 tracks FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the mix (24 total))

SOUNDS

Like any good converter numrique SETTING THE gain is paramount and will never be as flexible as the analog. (Gain = too low blows, gain too levsaturation very dsagable)

It sr, converters are not signed Apogee (and any good fawn trs converstisseurs a price ...), but they are quite transparent (well, my humble opinion that the Beringher ..) and especially quiet.
Besides, if having had both machines in the hands I will bring the wrath by doing a little comparison (as both target the same audience and same budget)

The faders of the 01 are only 60mm of travel is that it is true are noisy with automation.
Compared to the 10mm of the B. .. r is less comfortable.

But for the rest of Yam seems to me much better weapon:

- The pramp have a reserve of 10 to gain enough imprssionante-34dB, if we add it to a pad attenuation of 26 dB, dynamic range is covered trs tense.

- The four bands are equalos Fully parametric (frquence, filter width and gain) and they are REALLY effective (provided we know the utiliss)

The sound-General for the table is ASEZ enjoyable and not as "hard and aggressive" than the B.. R.

In addition the beast has 6 to dparts (2 for the internal effects, 4 Omni outputs on)

LIBRARY The effect is fairly well supplied, (gate, compressor, limiter, expander) and effective

The built-in effects and music are rellements and DSP algorithms are those of the rev500 and the pro R3: a REFERENCE! (Effects alone (the era corresponded almost costs the table).

Although these effects can be criticized a lack of heat, but the effects DIGITAL COUNTERS lack it.
And it's true they sound mtallique, but it's mostly a question of dosage: sometimes you s'interoger on the level of reverb return, rather than on its quality itself.

On this point the effects of yam are (Still my opinion) largely suprieur the B.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this table for 2 or 3 years (when you love it does not count)
And I really wanted to try the Beringher but I is not found the sound quality or power or effects of equalos yahm.
I used this table in diff config ': home studio and live
To live is good, but: do not have a large training, know perfectly and be very vigilant adjustable gains.
Even if this level I prfere the big fat analog.

This set saves you hand it to carry your huge rack with compressors and the whole shebang. "

Home for the studio is really effective and can really rev couraging a job clean and if not your exact l do not always blame the gear.

If you had to mention the many possibilities of using the 01v this could be quite long and boring (for some)

It's the stuff on, reliable, good value qualitprix (I do not mean good trs lest the dealers have the bad stuff ide to increase it.)

+ Say anything

UTILIZATION

A bit noisy when the sliders move themselves between rglage volume and the effects.
The manual is comprehensive and explains trs concrtes situations.

SOUNDS

Trs transparent. Users who forget mtallique say that there is a 4 band eq paramtrique on each channel. Although RULES is nickel.

I like pramps without heat, because it is always possible to "dirty" sound to add. Used with good software (Sonar) and a computer with ADAT and SPDIF is tip-top.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years in my studio specially for acoustic instruments (www.cannes-and-bambou.com). My ears are met, no pb with that of its console mix
One of the knobs weakening lately, and after sales service is far from home. I will have my same rpar.
T I have to dcoller the shield of the screen to remove the dusts that seeped underneath. I put the double sided adhsif around this time. More problem, there is more than dusts there.
How? : The shield of the screen is fixed above and below by two adhesive strips. The dusts depends cts the left and right with no sticker. Therefore the dcoller dlicatement end with a knife, and replace them with double-sided adhesive into thin strips on all sides leaving no space o dusts get through.

As for the architecture and possibility for the price is not much to say
apart q'uon can not sync via word clock

UTILIZATION

Good config (except for routing digital adt or TDIF)
is ergonomically
EXCELLENT and very educational manual: bravo!

SOUNDS

Everything that goes through these preamps spring has shit! sorry but I recorded and mixed over three albums and 5-6 models, while ironing track by track in a tla c drive even when .. it's okay for beginners but should not hope to do much more, it goes live: volume compence ... digimax by using a preamp or a Hearing, and get in dedant adat is the day and night!
converters are transparent apart from that its thickness decreases by 2!
we can indeed get away with eq ... but snap a compressor and see snare deveint a pin pong ball! smaller c impossible: an auto-comp is a wonder a side ...
good luck for reverbs! Fortunately there is an eq on it ...
Briefly, some of the user of this page are the Jamis test other mixers and then redeem listen, see and ears ...

OVERALL OPINION

Value for money a bit high ... I sold mine 500 euros ...
I regret not having bought it as g bcp learn .... made a sound mix with an 01v, after you make it sound any koi anywhere! (Almost lol)

That says it all
I find this absolutely perfect table
12 inputs + 2 stereo inputs canon in jack for keyboards

True parametric eq 4 increments
Two effects in increments
a comp or limiter or gate, for every
I challenge you to beat for the price
if you use all the tracks, you would have the same work
14 to 4 analog parametric eq, etc ...
is high tech, and good stuff like yamaha has always used to seeing and using

This table is made for good live rock bands or other

I hear and I read Anneres quality converters
all those who say this should simply be a sound starting shit
sorry, but even the best of the consoles can not do miracles for the Deaf

For my part I have made many albums with this table
but its use is primarily for live

UTILIZATION

The config is childish
his mixes are stored in different places or you play
and when you return, just recall your memory of that mix may contain a hundred
functions are too childish with motorized faders

Finally, I find this simply fascinating table

reserved, however, to live
ears with good result is guaranteed

for the studio, it is better to invest a little more in a very good analog and throughout the range of eq, effects and compressors, but it's more the same budget

SOUNDS

The converters are very useful for live, in pubs, concerts and other
of course I believe that their dynamics is limited to 102 db, so do not expect to have a big potato, but it will still superior to any table analogue same price
the effects are good, very effective, I couple the reverb on the delay to u2 on the voice, and it looks like bono

not nothing to say, to purchase for absolutely live! too good, too easy, too efficient
really the best of the best

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 years
my first was stolen and I bought another so it makes my life easier
I play gigs in pubs group for 15 years, I know the scene, and can say that this table has revolutionized the way I work
I love everything on this table

unbeatable value for money,
I will redeem this table until I die if I play again

For the characteristics just said was already in effect, this console and very well thought out.
I use it with as adat sync and frankly it is that happiness is automatically placed on the frequency read.
Automation is supported very well connected in midi on my PC all the functions is live.
Very good sampling at 44.1 Mhz in 48 Mhz but better.

UTILIZATION

For the first use I had advice from a friend who knows the material but I admit it and easy to understand when to know every beach (home, with, effects, adat option) give the 'feel like a different console, and all won.
The manual is clear enough.

SOUNDS

Very good converters sufficiently transparent, worse than the new 01V96 but considering the price in time is quite correct.
The dynamics are well respected, and are powerful enough preamp with XLR inputs.
The effects are very good for those who n'on no external effect.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two weeks, bought € 900 during the site Audiofanzine I do not regret it at all.
I wanted to buy the new 01V96 but given my use (home studio) and my budget the first version of my very well satisfied.
Nothing to say now she completely agree.
I do it again this election easily.
Thank you to Bertrand, who sold it to me, excellent transaction and very good contact.
Thank you to Audiofanzine.

Fully digital, with lots of possibilities
-Equalizer
Compressor
Enhancer-
-Limiter

any type of connection, cinch (RCA), XLR and jack
Many auxiliary outputs!
Rackable.

Motorized faders

UTILIZATION

Complicated to the extent that one is satisfied with the lights and hack without reading the manual.
You must read the instructions, it can solve lots of problems before they even meet them!

SOUNDS

Perfect, you will tell me, at this price! It can!
Ben is the case, it's a perfect sound. some say that it can sometimes be a little perturbed by the A / D converters, D / A No, they are very good in this table, YAMAHA koi!!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this gear for too long, well, as you can imagine the possibilities are numerous. EQ, compressor, enhancer, etc ... There is everything you need!

Very complete, you just have to take time to read the package insert that includes a lot of pages!

Level of connection can be just like you want a router using the software internally, within the limits of logic audio course!! (Ie: output is an output, an entry is an entry!)

+ +

9 / 10 because everything but the 10 does say it will be for one day ... 02V, can be ...

UTILIZATION

Incredibly easy to take over for whom this DONNNE SENTENCE TO READ THE MANUAL!
Because I understand anything while it was not open the book it's great no matter what.
The functions are incredibly accessible and I admit the quality of AIM and other eq comp easily paramtrable m ^ me if I continue to work with a lot of hardware.

SOUNDS

A sound impcable, I still can not! and some say that the dead Whereas since version 01V96 ...
Jai could compare the two and frankly I'm happy with my choice, that will not be leaving for the main spar monitor mix. On the 96, the main influence and direct the monitor is not really practical.

OVERALL OPINION

For me it's my future home studio combines quality and value for price was incredible for me because I pay 470 an English studio which renewed his gear.
A choice has to do with eyes closed.

Everything has already been said in prior reviews. I have one more extension ADAT.

UTILIZATION

The grip is exceptionally simple.
The manual is very well done and in French!

SOUNDS

The samplers are very good quality. The effects are nice. I regret that it is not possible to insert an effect on a track. As against the compressors are great!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 months now and I am far from having made the tour of its capabilities. What I like about this table is its ease of use, can also connect an ADAT interface. I regret still that the gains are not stored in scene memories. But I Motes ... I had a Fostex VM88 before 01V. Now with it being played in the major!

The Yamaha 01V comes with a rack able option and is very easy to set up. You wont even need to open up the manual to get going, its all self explanatory if you know how to operate most other gear. You can use it with midi which is good because most all equipment now a days is tied to midi. The knobs seem to be pretty strong and well built. Not too sure how it will hold up over the next few years because most machines tend to have issues with the sliders and knobs as time progresses.


UTILIZATION

Everything is easy to use, no manual needed! But if you need the manual hopefully you can find one or one comes with it, because this item is no longer made.

SOUNDS

Sounds great, even though its been out for a while. You can still pick one of these up at a lot of different places online. People are selling these off to upgrade, but with this unit you wont need to upgrade if you know what your doing. It can do everything any other higher priced mixer does. It will be interesting to see how well this holds up for me though, even as old as it is, I still want to see if it can take the wear and tare of how we use our equipment here.


OVERALL OPINION

Overall you cant go wrong with a high quality mixer for less than 300 dollars in todays music world. Most mixers of this caliber are upwards of at least a grand. But because this is an older model you can get it for a lot cheaper that. Even when it first came out years ago it was only around 600 dollars or so here in the US. You can get a used one today, because they don’t produce this model anymore so you will have to search eBay or other sites that sell equipment. Maybe even check down at your local pawn shops as there might be some gear there similar to this one.

See the doc.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use. (I also have a Tascam DM24 much more complicated than the Yamaha).

SOUNDS

To use that I do (live in the orchestra), they are very good.

OVERALL OPINION

For almost eight years I use it.
They've never failed.
I used two coupled together via MIDI, so that I end up with 24 channels accessible directly.
Over time, sometimes the knobs used to adjust the equalizer do not work very well, but since you can also adjust with the knob, it does not bother me so much.

Rackable Option, the connection is good (no insert)

At levels of rputing is a bit more weird, the band have 4For of 1-16 and 17-24 of the more than 2 ..
Ditto for the 2 band parametric EQ for channels 17-24 (the coup must juggle a can)
2 multi purpose integrated
Automation is not integrated but can be managed with an external midi sequencer. (It works fine ..)

Levels in sync .. 44khz 48khz internally or via the digital input.

UTILIZATION

Setup is very simple, the manual I've never opened ... The functions are simple. A bit less clear when using an expansion card.

SOUNDS

The converters are correct for my part (in the context of electronic music).
But it is not well seen by all ..

The effect is quite efficient type spx 900 990 (with the breath and less!) For beautiful reverb forget the lexicon on.

dynamics is a bit weird, the compression is not tiptop.

OVERALL OPINION

Console quality. One must be careful. Avoid the bully Knob rotary rather fragile.
I still regret not having waited for the release of version 96khz ...

Today it is a console that does not score at all, it's a shame it is well worth a console analog input range with its racks

Small modification of the electrical power supply (type shukos) very valuable.
Added a slider to the track marks, very convenient.

UTILIZATION

SIMPE very general configuration, when one knows Yamaha products, or we used digital.
Short enough time to adapt, use relatively intuitive when it comes to analog.
Live, to manage thousands of tracks at the same time on a quick adjustment is not very functional.

SOUNDS

AD converters very clear!
Filter dynamics and very accurate

OVERALL OPINION

Using 2 years
In digital hardware tries Roland analog Soudcrafft, Allen and Yamaha.

Plus: Compact and everything is in it! very affordable price for such material! AC remains a benchmark.
Fewest: hergonomie live on a big config

Value for money very good! Unbeatable ... in my opinion.

I would do without hesitation that choice. I'll buy a 01V96. My 01V is for sale at 500 €

* Is the rack? Yes
* How many lanes, bus, auxiliary sends, returns ...)? 4bus, 4 to
* What type of connectors (RCA Jack, XLR ...)? 12 XLR mic inputs, otherwise balanced jack, an input output I SPIF plus a map aes / ebu
* The parametric equalizer is it? Yes
* An effects section is integrated? ... For Digital Consoles: yes
* What is the accuracy of the sample (bits / kHz)? 16bits 48k
* Automation is supported? Yes
* What type of sync are supported? ... Noon



UTILIZATION

The general configuration is simple? no it's a real gas plant but I like when there are many possibilities.

The manual is clear and sufficient? ... The manual is clear and complete.

SOUNDS

The A / D converters and D / A are transparent? converters are not terrible but the scene is enough for me.
The effects and filters are effective? The filters are effective, the effects poor.

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it? 4 or 5 years.

Did you try many other models before getting this one? digital 02R is roughly the same functions and more cumbersome and more slices.

What is so special that you like best?: Robust and numerous possibilities in terms of patching, monitoring noon (I pilot with a MIDI pedal). I tried many configurations and it has always obeyed the foot and the finger!

the least?: its weight, its converters, effects (I use a multi externality G major)

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? yes 01V96 unless I find one day an equivalent model in less bulky and less heavy.
