YAMAHA / MG20 Analog Mixer

This mixing console was born to create expressive music, equipped with carefully selected microphone preamps and the high-grade compressors and EQs essential for sound creation. The industry-standard MG series standard model boasts a metal chassis body that not only makes it sturdy but also creates a sleek form.

◆D-PRE (D-PRE Discrete Class-A Microphone Preamp)
The D-PRE microphone preamp employs an inverted Darlington circuit, traditionally used in high-end audio amplifiers. This circuit's multi-stage configuration of amplification elements achieves high current and low impedance. The resulting sound is thick and natural, with a sense of openness and airiness, based on a smooth, crisp, and lustrous midrange. Aiming to reproduce the original sound faithfully and with high quality, the D-PRE has been meticulously tuned to achieve flat characteristics across the entire frequency range.

◆The key to high-quality sound lies in the op amp.

For the development of the MG series, we developed a new, high-quality, custom-made op amp, the ""MG01."" While many op amps on the market emphasize electrical characteristics and efficiency, we created this op amp with a focus on sound quality. The MG01 op-amp is a product we're proud of, having optimized its internal components and wiring, and carefully selected materials such as high-quality silicon wafers and copper wire for superior performance.

◆A one-knob compressor that delivers professional sound with just one knob

Achieve optimal compression for everything from vocals to instruments, achieving a professional sound, without the need to memorize complex names or operating principles or connect a separate compressor.

◆EQ and high-pass filter

Mono channels on the MG10 and above are equipped with a 3-band EQ. Each mono channel is equipped with a high-pass filter to remove unwanted low frequencies and allow for clearer mixing.

◆Mono input channels that maximize channel utilization

Mono inputs feature high-quality, renowned Neutrik combo jacks, accepting both microphone and line-level signals. A 26dB pad is also provided for handling high-volume sources. The stereo line inputs on the MG12 and above also feature standard XLR connectors, allowing you to fully utilize the channel.

◆Output channels with flexible output configuration
Small models tend to omit the main XLR output, but all models are equipped with XLR and phone jacks.

◆The robustness of the metal chassis
The powder-coated metal chassis enhances impact resistance, boasting unprecedented durability. The sleek design enables optimal convection cooling, and the internal layout separates the power supply circuitry from the analog circuitry, thoroughly eliminating the effects of noise and contributing to extending the life of internal components. Furthermore, the knobs have been positioned to distribute impacts on the panel surface and absorb damage to the internal circuitry.
