CINEMA DSP  
Optimizing speaker settings  
for the environment (YPAO)  
The excitement of a concert hall and the powerful sense of being inside a movie - we all want to enjoy these  
experiences in our own living room. Yamaha has pursued the fulfillment of these desires for more than 20 years, and  
this fulfillment has now taken shape as the Yamaha AV receivers.  
The included YPAO microphone can be used to analyze  
the environment so that this information can be used to  
automatically adjust various settings for the speakers and  
the sound field. This allows the distinctive character of the  
content you are hearing to be maximized, and optimizes  
the effectiveness of Yamaha's sound field generating  
technology for your specific listening environment.  
What is a sound field?  
CINEMA DSP HD3  
We perceive sound from a voice or an instrument not  
only as the sounds that are heard directly but also as  
the “reflected” or “reverberant” sound that has been  
reflected by the walls or ceiling of the building. The  
character of the reflected and reverberant sound is  
affected by the shape, size, and material of the building,  
and all of these sounds taken together are what give us  
the auditory sensation of being in that specific place.  
Yamaha has accumulated a massive amount of  
acoustical data by analyzing the actual sound fields of  
concert halls and performance spaces around the  
world. “CINEMA DSP” allows this data to be applied to  
create sound fields. This unit contains a wide variety of  
sound programs using CINEMA DSP.  
YPAO-R.S.C.  
In rooms that have not been designed or constructed  
with acoustics in mind, reflections from the walls or  
ceiling can cause problems such as a blurred  
low-frequency range or a smearing of the acoustical  
image. “YPAO-R.S.C.” is technology that reduces only  
the unwanted reflections that can be difficult to avoid in  
a typical home. This corrects the tonal changes and  
inconsistencies in the sound field that can occur due to  
speaker placement, thus creating a listening  
By selecting a sound program that is appropriate to the  
content of the playback source such as movies, music,  
or games, you can maximize the acoustical  
effectiveness of that specific content. (For example, a  
sound program designed for movies can give you the  
sensation of actually being in that scene.)  
In addition, the “CINEMA DSP 3D” function uses  
3-dimensional sound field data that includes the axis of  
height, generating an even more realistic sound field  
with a spatial sense.  
This unique acoustical character of a specific space is  
what we call the “sound field”.

Error message  
Cause  
Remedy  
E-1: No Front SP  
E-2: No Sur. SP  
E-3: No F.PRNS SP  
Front speakers are not detected.  
Follow the on-screen instructions to exit YPAO, turn off the unit and power amplifier, and then check the  
power amplifier connections (to the unit or to the corresponding speakers).  
(This error message will be also displayed if you perform YPAO when the power amplifier is turned off.)  
One of the surround speakers cannot be detected.  
One of the front presence speakers cannot be detected.  
When using only one surround back speaker, you need to connect it to the SINGLE jack (L side). Follow the  
on-screen instructions to exit YPAO, turn off the unit and power amplifier, and then reconnect the speaker.  
E-4: SBR SBL  
E-5: Noisy  
A surround back speaker is connected to the R side only.  
The noise is too loud.  
Keep the room quiet and follow the on-screen instructions to start the measurement again. If you select  
“PROCEED”, YPAO takes the measurement again and ignores any noise detected.  
Surround back speakers are connected, but no surround  
speakers are connected.  
Surround speakers need to be connected in order to use surround back speakers. Follow the on-screen  
instructions to exit YPAO, turn off the unit and power amplifier, and then reconnect the speakers.  
E-6: Check Sur.  
E-7: No MIC  
Connect the YPAO microphone to the YPAO MIC jack firmly and follow the on-screen instructions to start the  
measurement again.  
The YPAO microphone has been removed.  
Connect the YPAO microphone to the YPAO MIC jack firmly and follow the on-screen instructions to start the  
measurement again. If this error occurs repeatedly, contact the nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service  
center.  
E-8: No Signal  
The YPAO microphone cannot detect test tones.

Warning messages  
If a warning message is displayed after the measurement, you can still save the measurement results by following on-screen instructions.  
However, we recommend you perform YPAO again in order to use the unit with the optimal speaker settings.  
Warning message  
W-1: Out of Phase  
Cause  
Remedy  
Select “Wiring” in “Result” (p.48) and check the cable connections (+/-) of the speaker identified by  
“Reverse”. If the speaker is connected incorrectly, turn off the unit and power amplifier, and then reconnect  
the speaker cable. Depending on the type of speakers or room environment, this message may appear even  
if the speakers are connected correctly. In this case, you can ignore the message.  
A speaker cable may be connected with the reverse polarity  
(+/-).  
Check the pin assignments of the XLR jacks of the power amplifier. If they are not compatible with the pin  
assignments of the unit (p.23), change the pin assignment setting of the power amplifier or use unbalanced  
(RCA) connections.  
The pin assignments of the XLR jacks of the unit and power  
amplifier are not same.  
A speaker is placed more than 24 m (80 ft) from the listening  
position.  
Select “Distance” in “Result” (p.48) and move the speaker identified by “>24.00m (>80.0ft)” within 24 m (80  
ft) of the listening position.  
W-2: Over Distance  
W-3: Level Error  
Check the usage environment and cable connections (+/-) of each speaker, and the volume of the  
subwoofer. We recommend using the same speakers or speakers with specifications that are as similar as  
possible.  
There are significant volume differences between the  
speakers.

without disturbing the original acoustic positioning of multichannel audio,  
such as Dolby Digital and DTS. Its design is based on the concept of the  
ideal movie theater, in which the audience is surrounded by beautiful  
reverberations from the left, right, and rear.  
This program is suitable for action games, such as car racing and fighting  
games. The reality of, and emphasis on, various effects makes the player  
feel like they are right in the middle of the action, allowing for greater  
concentration. Use this program in combination with Compressed Music  
Enhancer for a more dynamic and strong sound field.  
Standard  
Action Game  
This program delivers the scale and grandeur of spectacular movie  
productions. It delivers an expansive sound space to match the  
cinemascope wide-screen, and boasts a broad dynamic range, providing  
everything from small delicate sounds to powerful loud booms.  
This program is suitable for role-playing and adventure games. This  
program adds depth to the sound field for natural and realistic reproduction  
Spectacle  
Sci-Fi  
Roleplaying Game of background music, special effects, and dialogue from a wide variety of  
scenes. Use this program in combination with Compressed Music  
Enhancer for a clearer and more spatial sound field.  
This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound design of the  
latest Sci-Fi and SFX movies. You can enjoy a variety of  
cinematographically created virtual spaces reproduced with clear  
separation between dialogue, sound effects, and background music.  
This program allows you to enjoy videos of pop, rock, and jazz concerts, as  
if you were there yourself. Immerse yourself in the hot concert atmosphere  
thanks to the vividness of the singers and solos on stage, a presence  
sound field that emphasizes the beat of rhythm instruments, and a surround  
sound field that reproduces the space of a big live hall.  
Music Video  
This program is ideal for reproducing the sound design of action and  
adventure movies precisely. The sound field restrains reverberations, but  
puts emphasis on reproducing a sensation of expansiveness on both sides,  
powerful space expanded widely to the left and right. The restrained depth  
creates a clear and powerful space, while also maintaining the articulation  
of the sounds and the separation of the channels.  
This program controls the amount of reverberations at an optimum level and  
emphasizes the depth and clarity of human voices to offer the  
reverberations of an orchestra box in front the listener at the same time as  
providing the acoustic positioning and feeling of presence on the stage.  
The surround sound field is relatively moderate, but the data for concert hall  
effects are used to represent the inherent beauty of music. The listener will  
not be fatigued even after long hours of opera entertainment.  
Adventure  
Recital/Opera  
This program features stable reverberations that match a wide range of  
movie genres, from serious dramas to musicals and comedies. The  
reverberations are modest, but suitably stereophonic. The sound effects  
and background music are reproduced with a gentle echo that does not  
impinge on the articulation of the dialogue. You’ll never get tired listening for  
long periods.  
Drama  
This program reproduces vocals clearly, letting you feel the spaciousness  
of a pavilion. Reverberation, which is somewhat delayed, reproduces the  
live acoustics unique to a pavilion, and helps to make concert scenes more  
exciting.  
Pavilion  
Disco  
This program reproduces monaural video sources, such as classic movies,  
in an atmosphere of a good old movie theater. The program creates a  
pleasant space with depth, by adding breadth and the appropriate  
reverberation to the original audio.  
This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the  
heart of a big city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also  
characterized by high-energy, “immediate” sound.

Sound programs suitable for music/stereo playback  
This program features the sound field created by the refectory (dining hall)  
of a beautiful medieval Gothic monastery located in Royaumont on the  
outskirts of Paris.  
Church in  
Royaumont  
(MUSIC)  
The following sound programs are optimized for listening to music sources.  
You can also select stereo playback.  
This program creates a relatively wide space with a high ceiling, like an  
audience hall in a palace. It offers pleasant reverberations that are suitable  
for courtly music and chamber music.  
Chamber  
CLASSICAL  
LIVE/CLUB  
This sound field simulates a concert hall with approximately 2500 seats in  
Munich, using stylish wood for the interior finishing as normal standards for  
European concert halls. Fine, beautiful reverberations spread richly,  
creating a calming atmosphere. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center  
left of the arena.  
This is the sound field at a jazz club that was in New York. It is in a  
basement and has a relatively spacious floor area. The listener’s virtual seat  
is at the center left of the hall.  
Village Gate  
Hall in Munich A  
Hall in Munich B  
The Jazz club is on 7th Avenue, New York. This small club with the low  
ceiling makes the powerful reflections converge toward the stage located in  
the center.  
Village Vanguard  
Warehouse Loft  
This hall is frequently used for recording orchestral music, and is a  
shoe-box type concert hall with around 1300 seats. The hall is constructed  
from marble, resulting in relatively flat resonance. Further, the high ceiling  
causes sound to reverberate for longer than usual.  
The warehouse resembles some lofts in Soho. Sound reflects off the  
concrete walls clearly with a lot of energy.  
This is a large shoe-box type concert hall with around 2400 seats located in  
Frankfurt. This hall has a very solid, powerful sound. The listener’s virtual  
seat is in the center-right section on the first floor.  
This program simulates an intimate concert venue with a low ceiling and  
homey atmosphere. A realistic, live sound field delivers powerful sounds  
that make you feel as if you are sitting in the front row in front of a small  
stage.  
Hall in Frankfurt  
Hall in Stuttgart  
Cellar Club  
This is a large asymmetrical concert hall with around 2000 seats located in  
downtown Stuttgart. Sound reflected off the concrete wall located to the left  
of listeners has a powerful presence.  
This program creates the sound field of a 460-seat rock music concert  
venue in Los Angeles. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the  
hall.  
The Roxy Theatre  
This program simulates a 1,700-seat, middle-sized concert hall with a  
shoebox shape that is traditional in Vienna. Pillars and ornate carvings  
create extremely complex reverberations from all around the audience,  
producing a very full, rich sound.  
Hall in Vienna  
This program creates the sound field at stage front in The Bottom Line, a  
famous New York jazz club once. The floor can seat 300 people to the left  
and right in a sound field offering real and vibrant sound.  
The Bottom Line  
Arena  
The large, shoe box shaped hall seats about 2,200 around the circle stage.  
Reflections are rich and pleasing while the sound travels freely.  
Hall in Amsterdam  
Hall in USA A  
This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect  
sounds, with the extraordinarily spacious feel of a large arena.  
This is a large 2600 seat concert hall in the United States which features a  
fairly traditional European design. The interior is relatively simple, in the  
American style. The middle and high frequencies are richly and beautifully  
reinforced.  
STEREO  
2ch Stereo  
Use this program to mix down multichannel sources to 2 channels. When  
multichannel signals are input, they are down mixed to 2 channels and  
output from the front speakers (this program does not utilize CINEMA DSP).  
This spacious arch-shaped hall has a dome ceiling and can seat 2600. The  
ample resonance apparent in the sound is a feature brought about by  
longer than average period of reverberation. In addition to this, the reflector  
suspended above the stage allows listeners to experience rich sound from  
the direction of the stage.  
Hall in USA B  
Use this program to output sound from all speakers. When you play back  
multichannel sources, the unit mixes down the source to 2 channels, and  
then outputs the sound from all speakers. This program creates a larger  
sound field and is ideal for background music at parties.  
11ch Stereo  
The acoustic environment of an ordinary church with moderate  
reverberations. The reverberation lasts 2.5 seconds. This is ideal for  
reproducing church organ and choral music.  
Church in Tokyo  
Located in the south of Germany, this grand, stone-built church has a  
pointed tower at 120 meters in height. Its long and narrow shape and the  
Church in Freiburg high ceiling enable the elongated reverberation time and limited initial  
reflection time. Thus, the rich reverberation rather than the sound itself  
reproduces the atmosphere of the church.  
• CINEMA DSP HD³ (p.56) and Virtual CINEMA DSP (p.56) do not work when “2ch Stereo” or “11ch Stereo”  
is selected.

Frequently asked questions  
enable HDMI Control on each device and perform the HDMI Control link setup. This  
setup is required every time you add a new HDMI Control-compatible device to your  
system. For information on how HDMI Control works between your TV and playback  
devices, refer to the instruction manuals for each device.  
The new speaker system does not provide an ideal sound  
balance...  
If you have changed speakers or have a new speaker system, use “Auto Setup” to  
optimize the speaker settings again (p.41). If you want to adjust the speaker settings  
manually, use “Manual Setup” in the “Setup” menu (p.106).  
I want to turn off the on-screen messages displayed during  
operations...  
By default, short messages are displayed on the TV screen when the unit is operated  
(such as input selection and volume adjustment). If the short messages bother you  
when you are watching movies or sports, configure “Short Message” (p.119) in the  
“Setup” menu to turn off the short messages.  
Since we have small children, we want to set limitations on the  
volume control...  
If a small child accidentally operates the controls on the main unit or remote control, the  
volume may suddenly increase. This may also cause injury or damage the unit or  
speakers. We recommend using “Max Volume” in the “Setup” menu to set the maximum  
volume level for the unit in advance (p.110). You can also set the maximum volume for  
Zone2 or Zone3 (p.117).  
I want to prevent accidental changes to the settings...  
You can protect the settings configured on the unit (such as speaker settings) by  
utilizing “Memory Guard” in the “Setup” menu (p.121).  
I am occasionally startled by a sudden loud sound when turning  
on the unit...  
By default, the volume level when the unit last entered standby mode is automatically  
applied. If you want to fix the volume, use “Initial Volume” in the “Setup” menu to set the  
volume to be applied when the receiver is turned on (p.110). You can also set the initial  
volume for Zone2 or Zone3 (p.117).  
The unit’s remote control is simultaneously controlling another  
Yamaha product as well as the unit...  
When using multiple Yamaha products, the remote control may work on another  
Yamaha product or another remote control may work on the unit. If this happens,  
register different remote control IDs for the devices that you want to control with each  
remote control (p.125).  
We are bothered by volume differences when switching  
between input sources…  
You can correct volume differences between input sources by utilizing “Input Trim” in  
the “Option” menu (p.92).  
I want to enjoy videos/audio played back on the video device  
even when the unit is in standby mode...  
If you have connected a video device to the unit with HDMI, you can output  
videos/audio played back on the video device to the TV even when the unit is in  
standby mode. To use this function, set “Standby Through” (p.114) in the “Setup” menu  
to “On”. You can also switch the input source using the remote control of the unit when  
this function is enabled.  
I made HDMI connections but HDMI Control does not work at  
all...  
To use HDMI Control, you need to perform the HDMI Control link setup (p.150). After  
connecting HDMI Control-compatible devices (such as BD/DVD players) to the unit,

Sampling frequency/Quantization bit  
HDMI and video information  
Sampling frequency and quantization bits indicate the quantity of information when an analog audio signal  
is digitized. These values are noted as in the following example: “48 kHz/24-bit”.  
• Sampling frequency  
Component video signal  
With the component video signal system, the video signal is separated into the Y signal for luminance and  
the Pb and Pr signals for chrominance. Color can be reproduced more faithfully with this system because  
each of these signals is independent.  
Sampling frequency (the number of times the signal is sampled per second) is called the sampling rate.  
When the sampling frequency is higher, the range of frequencies that can be played back are wider.  
• Quantization bit  
The number of quantization bits indicate the degree of accuracy when converting the sound level into a  
numeric value. When the number of quantized bits is higher, the expression of the sound level is more  
accurate.  
Composite video signal  
With the composite video signal system, color, brightness, and synchronization data signals are combined  
and transmitted with a single cable.  
WAV  
Deep Color  
Windows standard audio file format, which defines the method of recording the digital data obtained by  
converting audio signals. By default, the PCM method (no compression) is used, but you can also use other  
compression methods.  
Deep Color is a technology that HDMI specification supports. Deep Color increases the number of available  
colors within the boundaries defined by the RGB or YCbCr color space. Conventional color systems  
process the color using 8 bits. Deep Color processes the color with 10, 12, or 16 bits. This technology  
allows HDTVs and other displays to increase from millions of colors to billions of colors and eliminate  
on-screen color banding for smooth tonal transitions and subtle gradations between colors.  
WMA (Windows Media Audio)  
One of the compressed digital audio formats developed by Microsoft Corporation. With psychoacoustic  
technologies, this compression method achieves a high compression rate. Reportedly, it is capable of  
compressing data quantity by about 1/20 maintaining a certain level of audio quality.  
HDMI  
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the world-wide standard interface for digital audio/video  
signal transmission. This interface transmits both digital audio and digital video signals using a single cable  
without any loss. HDMI complies with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) and provides a  
secure audio/video interface. For further information on HDMI, visit the HDMI website at  
http://www.hdmi.org/”.  
Others  
LFE (Low Frequency Effects) 0.1 channel  
This channel reproduces low-frequency bass signals and has a frequency range from 20 Hz to 120 Hz. This  
channel is added to the channels for all bands with Dolby Digital or DTS to enhance low frequency audio  
effects. This channel is labeled 0.1 because it is limited to only low frequency audio.  
MHL  
MHL (Mobile High-definition Link) is the interface standard for high-speed digital video signal transmission  
that is developed for mobile devices. This interface transmits both digital audio and digital video signals  
from mobile devices (such as smartphones) using a single cable with any loss. As with HDMI, MHL  
complies with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).  
Lip sync  
Video output sometimes lags behind audio output due to the complexity of signal processing caused by an  
increase in video signal capacity. Lip sync is a technique for automatically correcting the timing lag  
between audio and video output.  
S-video signal  
With the S-video signal system, the video signal is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the C  
signal for the chrominance through the S-video cable. This technology achieves more accurate color  
reproduction than the composite video signal system.  
x.v.Color  
“x.v.Color” is a technology that the HDMI specification supports. It is a more extensive color space than  
sRGB and allows the expression of colors that were not hitherto possible. While remaining compatible with  
the color gamut of sRGB standards, “x.v.Color” expands the color space, and thus can produce more vivid,  
natural images.

Yamaha technologies  
CINEMA DSP (Digital Sound Field Processor)  
Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect is  
best experienced in a theater that has many speakers designed for acoustic effects. Since home conditions  
(such as room size, wall material, and number of speakers) can differ so widely, it is inevitable that there are  
differences in the sound that you hear. Based on a wealth of actually measured data, CINEMA DSP,  
Yamaha’s original DSP technology provides the audiovisual experience of a movie theater in your own  
home.  
CINEMA DSP 3D  
The actually measured sound field data contain the information of the height of the sound images. CINEMA  
DSP 3D mode achieves the reproduction of the accurate height of the sound images so that it creates the  
accurate and intensive 3D sound fields in a listening room.  
CINEMA DSP HD³  
The actually measured sound field data contain the information of the height of the sound images. CINEMA  
DSP HD³ feature achieves the reproduction of the accurate height of the sound images so that it creates the  
accurate and intensive stereoscopic sound fields in a listening room.  
Compressed Music Enhancer  
The Compressed Music Enhancer feature compensates for missing harmonics in compression music  
formats (such as MP3). As a result, this technology provides improved performance for the overall sound  
system.  
SILENT CINEMA  
Yamaha has developed a natural, realistic sound effect DSP algorithm for headphones. Parameters for  
headphones have been set for each sound program, so that accurate representations of all the sound  
programs can be enjoyed on headphones.  
Virtual CINEMA DSP  
Virtual CINEMA DSP allows the system to virtually reproduce the sound field of the surround speakers with  
front left and right speakers. Even if the surround speakers are not connected, the unit creates the realistic  
sound field in a listening room.  
Virtual Presence Speaker (VPS)  
Virtual Presence Speaker allows the system to virtually reproduce the height of the 3D sound field without  
presence speakers. Even if the presence speakers are not connected, the unit creates the 3D sound field in  
your room.
