Key Features
D-PRE Mic Preamps
Yamaha's D-PRE preamps feature an inverted Darlington circuit design originally developed for high-end professional consoles, delivering transparent sound reproduction with incredibly low noise and high headroom. These studio-quality preamps ensure your vocals and instruments are captured with exceptional clarity and detail, providing the foundation for professional-sounding recordings and mixes.
Built-In SPX Digital Effects
The onboard SPX effects processor provides 24 professional-quality programs including reverbs, delays, choruses, and more—the same algorithms used in Yamaha's renowned studio processors. Each effect can be easily dialed in and sent to individual channels via the AUX send, allowing you to add depth and dimension to your mix without external gear or complex routing.
USB Audio Interface with 24-bit/192kHz Recording
The high-resolution 2-in/2-out USB audio interface enables direct recording to your computer or iPad at up to 192kHz sample rate for pristine audio quality. This seamless integration eliminates the need for separate recording interfaces, streamlining your workflow whether you're tracking demos, recording podcasts, or capturing live performances directly to your DAW.
One-Knob Compression
Simple yet effective one-knob compressors on each mono input channel make professional dynamics control accessible to users of all experience levels. These intelligent compressors automatically adjust attack and release times based on your input signal, ensuring vocals sit perfectly in the mix and instruments maintain consistent levels without the need for complex parameter adjustment.
Rugged Metal Construction
The heavy-duty metal chassis protects internal components from the rigors of transport and regular use, ensuring long-term reliability in both fixed installations and mobile applications. Professional-grade components throughout—from the sealed potentiometers to the reinforced input jacks—deliver the durability demanded by working musicians and audio professionals.
