Overview of M7CL V3 Editor
M7CL V3 Editor (hereinafter called “M7CL Editor” in this document) enables you to remotely control a Yamaha
M7CL mixing console (Version 3) (such as M7CL-48ES, M7CL-48, or M7CL-32; hereinafter collectively called

You must configure the following settings for each open Editor.
Before you make the following settings, you must make settings for the DME-N Network Driver (Windows)
or the Network-MIDI Driver (Mac) and select the MIDI port in the Setup window of Studio Manager.
•To open an editor, double-click the icon for the desired editor in the Studio Manager window.

Working with Sessions
All of your console’s mix settings in M7CL Editor, including Scene and library data, are called Sessions.
The following table describes how to handle Sessions.
When you save a session in the window of an editor, the settings of only that editor will be saved in a file. Session files
saved by M7CL Editor have a filename extension of .YSE”. Files in which only the M7CL console data is saved (file-
name extension .M7C”) can also be handled, allowing you to use a USB storage device to exchange data with the
M7CL console.
If you save a Session in the Studio Manager window, all selected Editor settings are saved in a file with a file extension
of.YSM.
With M7CL V3 Editor, you can also open files that have been saved on any version of M7CL console or
Editor other than version 3 if the files feature the extension “.M7C” or “.YSE”. However, once you save
these files on the M7CL V3 console or Editor, you will not be able to open them on the other version of
M7CL console or Editor.
If you use the M7CL-48ES console to open a session saved via the M7CL-32/48 console, or if you use the
M7CL-32/48 console to open a session saved via the M7CL-48ES, the patch settings will change and the
same HA settings will be used as follows:
(*) The same HA settings will be used.
Creating a new Session
Choose [New Session] from the [File] menu.
Opening a previously saved Session
Choose [Open Session] from the [File] menu.
Saving the current Session
Choose [Save Session] from the [File] menu.
Saving the current Session with a new name
Choose [Save Session As...] from the [File] menu.

Undo/Redo Function
In M7CL Editor, you can cancel the latest operation (Undo) and also cancel the cancellation of the latest operation
(Redo). If you perform an Undo operation twice in a row, you can cancel the two most-recent operations. If you per-
form an Undo operation three times in a row, you can cancel the three most-recent operations. In this way, you can
cancel multiple recent operations.
The following table describes how to use the Undo/Redo function.
Please note, however, that after you perform one of the following operations, you cannot successfully undo or redo
any previous operation:
•Operations on the M7CL console
Quitting Studio Manager
•Synchronizing with the M7CL console
•Session operations
You cannot Undo or Redo the following operations:
• Edits in the Setup window
• Synchronization
• Opening and closing the windows
• Resizing or moving the windows
• Stage Box Data Conversion
There are certain other operations that cannot be undone, depending on the function.
For library or scene operations, Undo/Redo applies only to the single most recent operation. You cannot
undo any operations prior to this. Undo/Redo in these windows is available only using the [UNDO] button
within the respective window. Even if you perform a scene recall from the Master window, you cannot use
a shortcut or menu operation to undo the recall.
Undo
Choose [Undo] from the [Edit] menu.
Redo
Choose [Redo] from the [Edit] menu.

Synchronizing M7CL Editor
When M7CL Editor starts up, the parameter settings on the console and the parameter settings in M7CL Editor may
be different. Therefore, you must first match the parameter settings on the console with those in M7CL Editor. This
operation is called “synchronization. Follow the steps below to synchronize M7CL Editor.
1 Select [Synchronize], then [Re-synchronize].
The following window opens.
2 Select whether you want to transfer your settings to M7CL
Editor, or vice versa.
At this time, the All Libs option determines whether or not Scene and
Library data is synchronized.
PC Console: Tr ansfers the current parameter settings in M7CL Editor to your console. On the M7CL-48ES,
the [Stage Box Setup] checkbox will appear. If you want to keep the Stage Box Setup setting of the M7CL-48ES
unit, remove the check from the checkbox.
Console PC: Tr ansfers the current parameter settings of your console to the M7CL Editor.
3 Click [OK].
Do not operate the console while synchronization is in progress.
If you use the “Recall” function in Studio Manager, all selected Editors in Studio Manager are synchro-
nized with the corresponding devices.
Offline Edit Function
If you do not want to synchronize your console with M7CL Editor, select [Offline Edit] from the [Synchronization]
menu. To apply your off-line edits to your console, select [Re-Synchronize] from the [Synchronization] with the PC
-> Console option to synchronize the console with M7CL Editor.
The Offline Edit function is also activated when you click the [ONLINE]/[OFFLINE] button in the
window.
Some effect parameters in the console change their displayed values depending on the sampling fre-
quency. If you switch M7CL Editor from OFFLINE to ONLINE, displayed parameter values may change
because M7CL Editor loads the sampling frequency from the console and updates the display.
Other Functions
Resetting to the default value (Ctrl( )+click)
Move the cursor to a control or a parameter value, then hold down the <Ctrl>(< >) key and click the mouse
button to reset the value to the default (e.g., to reset a pan setting to Center).
Ctrl( )+Shift+Click
Move the mouse cursor to a channel fader or to a send knob or bar graph, and click while holding down the
<Ctrl>(< >) key and <Shift> key to set the nominal value regardless of the default value.
