Yamaha 01v96i

The Yamaha 01v96i is a digital mixing console built by Yamaha Professional Audio, part of Japanese conglomerate Yamaha.

The first generation 01v was released in 1998 and it and later updated generations remain in widespread use. The third generation 01v96i is a powerful 40 channel (32 mono, 4 stereo) mixer featuring full 4 band parametric EQ, delay and dynamics on each input channel and 4 onboard effects processors. The 01v96i can be used as a 16x16 digital USB 2.0 interface with sample rates up to 96Kz/24bit. As it is not as user-friendly as more recent digital mixing consoles (such as the Behringer X32), it is recommended to spend sufficient time familiarising yourself with the interface if you have a need to use the console.

URY's 01v96i also features a Dante card to allow it to interface with Rednet. In the office, the 01v96i is used as a monitoring device for various inputs including Studio 1 feed, Studio 2 feed, Jutebox feed as well as outputs from the Production PC and Office PC 1 and 2. Please consult the instructions posted above the the console for further information (when they are re-installed, tba).

For live sessions, such as the Flagship Music Show, the 01v96i is used to mix the guest artist and create monitor mixes.

In 2018 the motor for Fader 1 died. Minor changing to patching was made and a replacement fader was purchased. This replacement was installed in the Summer of 2019 during an awkward repair procedure. The old fader that was thought to be broken just had a belt issue seemingly, so we now have that as a spare if necessary. This repair also came with the added benefit of CS lab techs using a compressed air line to blow out what must have been 10 years of dust as well. It was returned to use in Autumn 2019.
