YAMAHA TF SERIES GAIN CONTROL QUESTION

A bit of a newbie here so maybe what I am missing will be apparent to others.

I am working on a 2x Tio1608D, 2x TF3, 1x TF5 Yamaha system, but am not getting the same gain options within the consoles for an 8 microphone setup.

The microphone receivers are all routed physically to the Tio box (#1) and then routed through Dante controller to each TF3/5 individually.

Looking through the entire routing line, the Tio remote software, Dante, and the consoles' software, I cannot for the life of me find what would be causing the difference in display.

What I WANT is for every console to show only digital gain and the monitor to the right, not digital and analog. I am losing proper gain control when the TF5 is not acting as the others currently do. While seeing both analog and digital, digital gain is capped at +10 and the analog gain doesn't actually affect the level of the audio when changed. This is leading to our microphones being awfully under leveled on the TF5. The TF3 however, has proper gain output while at -18 to -12 when digital gain is the the only option.

It's also worth noting that we are using practically every channel available on the console for various other Dante audio sources (MS Teams, ClearComm, LiveU, etc) and this issue we are having is isolated to just our 8 microphone channels.

If any others can help explain what setting, either on the board, Dante, whatever else, that might be making the audio consoles read the same Dante routes differently, that would be much appreciated!

Hi Marc,

I have no experience and little understanding of Dante.

That said, your screen shot shows two different scenes for the TF3 and TF5 (Scene A05, Scene A06).
Might be settings are different in the scenes, you can exempt certain settings with "recall safe".

If that isn't the problem, you ask your question at the Live Audio Board on Pro Sound Web, there are more people still asking and answering technical questions there.
