About this product
Overview & specifications
Yamaha MG06 6-Channel Analogue Mixer is a six-channel analogue desk for the duo gig, the rehearsal room or the desktop rig that needs two proper mic preamps and nothing it will never use. It weighs 0.9 kg, runs off a 12 V adaptor and lives in a metal chassis, so it goes in the cable bag rather than its own case. What you are paying for is the pair of D-PRE preamps in a box this small.
Two D-PRE mic preamps with +48 V phantom
Both mono channels run through a D-PRE preamp with +48 V phantom power, so condenser mics and active DI boxes are covered. Hum and noise sit at -128 dBu with the gain wide open, and distortion measures 0.02% at +14 dBu across 20 Hz to 20 kHz. A peak LED on each channel lights 3 dB before clipping, which is the difference between catching a hot vocal and finding out on the recording.
Two-band EQ and a real meter
The mono channels carry a two-band EQ: a 10 kHz high shelf and a 100 Hz low shelf, each with 15 dB of cut or boost. That is enough to pull mud off a vocal mic or take the edge off a bright keyboard. The stereo bus feeds a pair of seven-segment LED meters that read from -20 dB up to peak, plus two stereo line inputs, two stereo outputs and a headphone out to check the mix on.
Small, tough and simple to power
The chassis is metal, 244 mm across and 202 mm deep, and the whole mixer draws 12 W from the included AC adaptor. There is an optional BMS-10A adaptor if you want it bolted to a mic stand at a singer's elbow.
