Yamaha Product Overview
Yamaha has provided an impressive range of lineups in professional audio since the release of the PM200 in 1972—our first ever professional analog mixing console. In 1987, we also released our first digital mixer, the DMP7, and have subsequently advanced technological innovations in sound quality, reliability and advanced functionalities with cutting-edge digital technologies. Drawing from our decades of experience crafting innovative, premium analog gear, we originally developed our new discrete Class-A microphone preamps for professional use in our high-end recording equipment. Utilising an inverted Darlington circuit design, our newly-refined D-PRE mic preamps deliver a fat, rich, smooth tone that gives the MGP Series a significant advantage over any other mixer in its class.
With Yamaha's proprietary X-pressive EQ we've managed to capture ultimate analog authenticity by unlocking the mysterious secrets behind the expressive sound shaping capabilities of sought-after classic EQ modules. At the heart of the MGP's compact configuration, we've taken an innovative new approach to the utilisation of digital technology in an analog mixer; adding high-resolution effects, iPod/iPhone integration and the superb functionality of our new Stereo Hybrid Channel to the warmth and musicality of premium analog sound. The MGP Series represents the ultimate balance of the converging technologies that are the heart and soul of Yamaha's extraordinary achievements in professional audio.
In addition to the complete redesign of the internal circuitry—from the mic preamps to the power supply—we also took a new, more intuitive approach to the knob design and control surface of the MGP Series consoles. The new colour coordinated design is not only attractive and professional, but also help visually guide the operator's hands to the intended functions.- 16 Mic Inputs with 48V Phantom Power and HPF per Channel
