MINI YET MIGHTY
COMPACT FOOTPRINT
Let’s be honest: gamer’s desktops can get pretty cluttered. The super compact footprint of the ZG02 fits neatly into your command center, offering just the right selection of tactile controls you need for mixing and effects – with deeper, less frequently accessed settings available in the ZG software.
THE PERFECT MIX, IN REAL TIME
Unlike some audio mixing solutions that require you to open an app to adjust volume levels, the ZG02 gives you simple, clearly labeled knobs that let you dial in the perfect mix, instantly and on the fly.
FUN EFFECTS, AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
Customize your voice and game sound settings in the ZG software, then recall them instantly from the ZG02 mixer preset buttons. Mic effect options include compression, limiter, reverb, pitch, radio voice and more – plus a press-and-hold button for echo. Game effect options include 3D surround sound, Focus Modes and 3D chat space.
CHOICES, CHOICES
Use a gaming headset with a boom mic or step up to a pro-grade condenser mic – the ZG02 has an XLR input with 48V phantom power, so it’s got you covered. Tired of wearing headphones? Just hit a button and switch to your powered desktop speakers instead.
POWERFUL, EASY-TO-USE SOFTWARE
This is where the magic happens. A free download from our site, the ZG Controller software (for Windows/Mac) is the ultimate companion for the ZG02, providing access to all the deep setting and customization features that truly bring the mixer to life.

3D SURROUND, FOCUS MODES & MORE
STUNNING SONIC REALISM
Engage 3D Surround Sound to immerse yourself in an ultra-realistic soundscape using any normal stereo gaming headset. The ZG02 mixer accepts multi-channel audio from the USB input and virtualizes it using Yamaha proprietary ViReal™ technology.
HEAR THEM COMING
Focus Modes allow you to customize your soundscape to suit a variety of game titles, scenes and playing styles, such as suppressing the sound of your own character’s voice or emphasizing the game’s environmental sounds. Hear your opponent’s footsteps… before it’s too late.
CLEAR UP THE CHAT CHAOS
With 3D Game Chat Space, your buddies’ voices get placed where you want them in a virtual space that avoids overlap with the game sound. You’ll feel as if you’re in the same room as them – there might still be a lot of trash talk, but at least you’ll hear it clearly.
SHARE IT ALL
Down to stream? Your multi-channel game audio is converted and processed by the ZG02 to reproduce a surround sound experience that can be streamed to your entire audience. Even if your fans only have normal stereo headphones, they can still experience the immersive sonic realism.
USB VERSATILITY
The ZG02 connects to your Windows or Mac computer with a special multi-channel USB interface that offers phenomenal versatility. Just install the free USB driver from our website and the mixer will be recognized as two virtual devices that can send and receive two audio channels for different purposes – perfect for use with Discord and OBS/Streamlabs at the same time.
