The Yamaha MGX16 is a compact digital mixer that combines classic live mixing requirements with modern recording and streaming integration. With 8 mono and 4 stereo channels plus sound pad and FX returns, it offers a practical channel architecture for solo artists, duos, small bands, podcast setups or rehearsal rooms. Operation is via a 15+1 fader surface and a 4.3" touchscreen, allowing you to quickly get to grips with channel editing, routing and scenes.

For production, the MGX12 is both an interface and a recorder: 22 inputs and outputs in 32-bit/96 kHz are available via USB MAIN, and there is also a separate 2x2 USB SUB for flexible integration of additional audio sources. Alternatively, or as a backup, you can record multitrack directly to microSD. There is also Bluetooth audio input and a comprehensive DSP package ranging from dynamics processing and EQ to amp simulation, voice changer and REV-X reverb. This makes the MGX16 suitable as a FOH and monitor center in a small venue as well as a robust control center for the home studio.
