Introduction Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha ProR3 Digital Reverberator. The ProR3 marks a new era in Yamaha’s reverberation technology. Third-generation Yamaha digital signal processors (DSP) with 32 bit digital signal processing and high-performance 20 bit linear A/D and D/A convert- ers provide unprecedented density and resolution, with breathtakingly dynamic impact.
These are six LEDs which indicate program status and other functions of the ProR3. STEREO, L/R MONO The input mode of the currently selected program is shown by three indicators. The ProR3 has four input modes (Stereo, LR/Mix, R-Mono, L-Mono), selected by the UTILITY key. When both L/R Mono indicators are lit, LR/Mix mode is selected.

This key has two functions. When you press the key, the red indicator will light. 1 Specify a program title (see page 16). 2 Select the parameters to be controlled by MIDI Control Change messages (see page 16 and 35). ProR3 Digital Reverberator Downloaded from: http://www.usersmanualguide.com/...

The inner knob is the input level for the left channel, and the outer knob is the input level for the right channel. The knobs are coaxial for convenience when you are adjusting the level of a stereo source. ProR3 Digital Reverberator Downloaded from: http://www.usersmanualguide.com/...

When this key is pressed, the input signal will be output directly without passing through the effect, and the red indicator will light. This is a convenient way to quickly compare the unprocessed sound with the processed sound. ProR3 Digital Reverberator Downloaded from: http://www.usersmanualguide.com/...
17 INPUT jacks These are balanced input jacks which input the analog signal from your mixer or multi-track recorder to the ProR3. If the source is monaural, use the UTILITY key to select an appropriate input jack (see page 33).
Turn on the ProR3 before the other connected equipment. When turning off the power of the system, turn off devices starting with the power amp and working backward toward the signal sources.
Basic use – using a preset program – Adjusting the input level When the power has been turned on for the ProR3 and the other equipment, make the sound sources produce sound, and adjust the input level of the ProR3.

Note: The pre-effect equalizer controls are located in the circuit after the INPUT level meters. This means that you need to be careful when setting gain levels, since even if the gain is raised excessively and digital clipping occurs, this will not be indicated by the meters. ProR3 Digital Reverberator Downloaded from: http://www.usersmanualguide.com/...
Note: For programs whose primary effect is early reflection (ER) and do not have a RevTime parame- ter, therefore this key will have no effect. ProR3 Digital Reverberator Downloaded from: http://www.usersmanualguide.com/...
This section explains how you can edit your own programs. How programs are organized Each of the ProR3 program consists of two main stages; the primary effect and the secondary effects. Of these, the primary effect can be selected from one of the following ten types, and will depend on the program that you select.
6. If you wish to edit the parameter again, return to step 3. 7. If you wish to edit a different parameter in the same effect, return to step 2. 8. If you wish to edit a different effect, refer to step 1. ProR3 Digital Reverberator Downloaded from: http://www.usersmanualguide.com/...

Up to 90 programs whose parameters you have edited can be saved as USER programs. 1. Press the STORE key. The PROGRAM indicator will blink, and a message will appear to ask the storing location.

With the factory preset settings, MIDI program numbers 1–90 correspond to USER program numbers 1–90, and MIDI program numbers 91–128 correspond to PRESET program numbers 1–38.
Advanced uses (3) – Utility functions – Transmitting a MIDI bulk dump The ProR3 allows you to transmit any type of data as a bulk dump; memory, program memory (all programs or a specified program), banks, user ER, or system memory.
