Audio professionals looking for a high-quality analog mixer with integrated effects will be impressed with the Yamaha MG16X, a compact 16-input mixer with built-in effects for performances, lectures, recordings, and similar applications. The mixer features eight mono mic/line combo input channels, two stereo line input channels that can also be used as mono mic or line inputs (XLR and stereo 1/4" inputs), and two stereo line inputs with 1/4" and RCA jacks. Channels 1 to 12 are each equipped with D-Pre mic preamps, 3-band EQ, pan control and a high-pass filter. The D-Pre mic preamps feature an inverted Darlington circuit and switchable 48V phantom power for use with dynamic and condenser microphones.
