Yamaha PM5D-RH V2 Manual Do Utilizador

Basic parameters such as mixing and editing the sound of each channel can be controlled by the faders and encoders of the top 
panel. However to make more detailed settings, you will need to access the appropriate “function” and edit the parameter val-
ues in the display. The section below explains the various user interface components shown in the display, and how to use 
them.

The user interface in the PM5D’s display uses the follow-
ing components.

❏ Pointer

The arrow shown in the display is called the “pointer.” Use 
the pointer to select the parameter you want to control 
next.

❏ Cursor

The red frame shown in the display is called 
the “cursor.” If the cursor encloses a parame-
ter on the screen, that parameter is selected 
for operation.

❏ Tabs

The screen names shown in 
the upper left of the display 
are called “tabs.” Tabs are 
used to switch between 
screens within the same 
function.

❏ Buttons

Buttons in the display are 
used to switch parameters 
on/off or to select one of 
multiple choices. Buttons 
that are currently on are dis-
played in green (some 
buttons are displayed in red 
or blue); buttons that are 
turned off are displayed in 
gray.

❏ Knobs/Faders/Boxes

Knobs/faders in the display are used to edit parameter val-
ues. The current value is shown in the box. Boxes for which 

 /   buttons are displayed at left and right allow you to 

edit the parameter by using these buttons. (If editing is not 
possible, the buttons will be gray.)

If you want to assign a name to a channel or scene, input 
characters, numerals, and symbols into the box.

❏ Character palette

This is a “virtual” keyboard used to input characters, 
numerals, and symbols into a text input box.
