Y7 reverb added for Rivage
Yamaha has teamed up with Bricasti Design on the creation of a premium reverb for Rivage PM Series digital mixing consoles. As a manufacturer of hand-crafted, hardware digital reverbs, Bricasti is best known for its M7 rackmount reverb unit. The new Y7 reverb, available as part of the V4.7 firmware, and it said to bring the highest level of expressiveness to Rivage PM users.
“All Yamaha mixers are built on the philosophy of allowing engineers to capture the onstage sound accurately, without colouration,” explained Yamaha group manager, PA marketing and sales group, Motome Tanaka. “Plug-ins play a vital role in allowing engineers to take this transparent sound and apply their artistry to the mix. High-quality reverb is one of the most important tools to achieve this and we are confident that the Y7 will become a key part of the creative expression for many sound engineers.”
Alongside the release of Y7, the manufacturer has released firmware version 5.6 for its CL and QL digital mixers series, which introduces support for Neutrik's NA2-IO-DPRO Dante interface, a small I/O solution that reportedly adds more flexibility in a network setup for line, mic and AES signals. Additionally, support is now offered for NEXO’s NXAMP4x4MK2 and Yamaha’s PC Series controls, allowing for more flexible system construction.
