  • A Yamaha is always a Yamaha
Size: 12-input Style: USB Interface with Effects
This mixer is the 5th Yamaha product I've purchased over about 40 years. All are still working! That's the point. Reliability is paramount in all Yamaha sound equipment. Even more important is sound quality. This mixer follows that by demonstrating that it is sonically appealing with very little tweaking. This proves it can handle a wide range of inputs with ease. Mixing live instruments with digital inputs doesn't cause dark, muddy lows or brittle sounding highs. Vocals will come to the front as expected with the rest of the ensemble separated and authentic as envisioned by the operator. This is a lovely instrument. Compact yet powerful. A good investment. ... show more

  • Great sound and features.
Size: 12-input Style: USB Interface with Effects
This is a high quality, great sounding mixer that's easy to set up and use. I originally bought the 10 channel version to connect media source (iTunes/Apple Music) to existing amplifier for practicing drums. Once I got it, I connected a few low quality mics to my Kick and snare drum and Oh Man! this really woke up my drums. I immediately bought the 12 channel version to mic up the rest of my drums (8 pc set) and record my playing. PROs: Easy set up (plug and play to MacBook via USB for playback (Apple Music) and recording (Garage Band) with great sound using 5 low end mics. (2 overhead, kick, hats and snare). FX really adds to overall sound/experience. Excellent mixer for live performances. CONs: Only has 6 mic inputs and 6 balanced (RCA-1/4" Phono jacks) so I wasn't able to mic up my additional 6 toms (used overhead mics for toms and cymbals). Also, the "final mix" is done on the mixer itself, pre recording, meaning the output is stereo only (2 tracks using left/right if you use pan knobs on 2 channels) vs. multi track recording, so no adjustments/fine tuning can be done on individual channels/mics in the mix post recording. Due to the cons and wanting "best of both worlds" (live performance with multi track recording) and more importantly, more mic inputs for toms. I ended up returning this mixer. I've considered the 16 and 20 channel versions of this mixer by Yamaha but overall cost would get me more inputs but still not have multitrack adjustment flexibility post recording. Leaning towards an audio interface by PreSonus or Focusrite for recording and possibly feed the output of that to the 6 or 10 channel Yamaha MG**XU for live/practice. This is a great mixer and sorry I had to return it. I would definitely recommend this mixer if you don't need excessive mic inputs with multi track, post recording processing. ... show more

  • Excellent Mixer
Size: 6-input Style: Built-in Effects
The mixer and speakers I have been using to host karaoke were about 15 years old. One speaker started putting out a lot of static once in a while. I took it to a shop to be fixed. That cost me $150.00. However, it did not change anything. I then switched the bad speaker with the other speaker. When I did that, the new speaker did the same thing. I then figured the problem must be the mixer. After setting up the Yamaha speaker there was no more problems, and I the sound is much better than what I had before. I had no idea the mixer would have that much to do with the sound quality. I am very pleased with my purchase. ... show more

  • An excellent small studio mixer for the money.
Size: 6-input Style: Built-in Effects
This works well in my small studio. I use the XLR for microphones and the single ended for my keyboards. The first two channels have the effects, the rest are dry. That works for me because the keyboard has its own effects. I add reverb to my XLR vocal mic and to the single ended Harmonica mic for channel 2. There is a slight hiss but only when you are right up to the monitors at high volume. Otherwise it is quiet. I like that it has multiple outputs. The XLRs go to my studio monitors and the headphone output is independently controlled. I have even put the output from my band recordings into channels 5 and 6 so I can play along with the band's set and work on my playing. Hard to beat for the money. I tis small enough to sit on my keyboard out of the way. I haven't taken it on gigs because the band's PA and house PA have the effects I need. Also, plan on having AC power so you may need an extension cord. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • Well made, quality materials
Size: 6-input Style: Standard Mixer
This is a really well made unit, and the fit and finish is quite good. Controls all work smoothly, and the sound quality is very good for our application (small PA system). I do wish the mic preamps had a little more gain, or that it had a mic trim pot where I could boost the signal when needed. Other than that, no complaints. If i was doing it over again, I would probably get the 10 input version, which does have the mic trim as well as extra EQ, but this fills our needs at a slightly lower price. ... show more

  • The best small format mixer on the market
Size: 6-input Style: Standard Mixer
I'm a solo electronic musician and I play small clubs around town. I needed a small format mixer to feed the front of house PA and this little Yamaha has been perfect for the job. It has an astonishing level of clean gain both from the microphone preamps and the line level I/O. I have to really push it very hard to even approach sending a clipped signal. This may be the smallest and most basic mixer in Yamaha's MG series, but it is one of their best. ... show more

  • Good mixer for the price
Size: 6-input Style: Built-in Effects
I had purchased a unit like this in the past and was glad to see they were still available. This is the second unit I have purchased and it has the same quality the first one had.
