PM5D/PM5D-RH Owner’s Manual Operating section 13
1
Introduction
How this manual is organized
This owner’s manual is divided into the following three
sections.
❏ Operating section
This section explains the items on the front and rear pan-
els, connections and setup, and how to operate the PM5D’s
basic functionality. In particular if you have not operated a
digital console before, we recommend that you read chap-
ters 2 through 7 first.
❏ Reference section
This section explains the functionality and operation for all
of the PM5D’s screens. Refer to this section when you want
to learn about the items in the screens.
❏ Appendices
This contains various information such as library lists,
parameter lists for the internal effects, the MIDI data for-
mat, and lists of warning messages and error messages.
In this manual, non-locking panel switches that you press
are called “keys,” and those that change their on/off status
when you push them in (locking types) are called
“switches.” Of the control knobs on the panel, those that
turn from a minimum value to a maximum value are
called “knobs,” while those that turn endlessly are called
“encoders.”
Controls located on the panel are enclosed in square brack-
ets [ ] (e.g., [CUE] key, [PAD] switch) in order to
distinguish them from the buttons and knobs displayed in
the screen. For some controls, the section name is listed
before the [ ] (e.g., CH [ON] key, EQ [FREQUENCY]
encoder).
Unless otherwise specified, references to the PM5D apply
to both the PM5D model and the PM5D-RH model. If
specifications differ between the PM5D model and the
PM5D-RH model, such differences will be noted each time
they occur.
