Professional, True Sound

By pursuing Yamaha's "True Sound" philosophy and utilizing high-performance AD/DA converters, the MGX mic preamps achieve an impressive 86 dB gain range with ultra-low distortion, and a 125 dB dynamic range at stereo output. Every nuance of your vocal and instrumental performance will be captured and reproduced with stunning accuracy.

This refined professional sound is guaranteed to satisfy not only discerning engineers, but also musicians, performers, and audiences alike.

Wherever You Go

Despite offering a wide range of features, the MGX12 achieves an impressively low weight of just 8.6 lbs through meticulous engineering and careful material selection. Without compromising durability, its rugged build is more than ready to handle a variety of environments with confidence.

Convenient Bluetooth Audio Input

Bluetooth connectivity allows users to easily integrate wireless audio sources into their live performances, streaming, and studio sessions.

Maximize Your Multi-Track

With the MGX, you can record up to 16 tracks of audio and playback 2 tracks directly from a microSD card. From creating a reliable backup for mobile standalone recording sessions, to playing background music at a venue, you can deliver pro-quality sound anywhere.

Fast, Intuitive Control - Dialed In

In addition to the core mixer controller section with twelve 60 mm faders and send knobs, a feature-packed GUI on the intuitive touch LCD, four customizable knobs, and the TOUCH AND TURN knob let you enjoy fast, precise, and effortless control—right at your fingertips.

Intelligent Tools for Exceptional Results

Auto Gain optimizes input volumes, Clip Safe prevents sudden distortion, and Total FX gives you tools like the Ducker—automatically prioritizing important sounds—and a Multi-Band Compressor to conveniently enhance your overall audio quality, and even a Delay for lip-sync adjustment.

With these features, the MGX keeps your workflow smooth and your sound consistently professional.

Change Fast, Stay Ready

With a Scene Recall function—you can switch between different setups or applications instantly. Pair it with Simple Mode for extra support, so you can stay focused on what matters most: your creativity.

Your Workflow, Your Way

The eight pads and four knobs located at the front right of the MGX also function as customizable user-defined keys. Their assignments can be managed across four banks, allowing you to configure them according to your needs—for example, triggering sound pads, scene recall, or playing back a test tone from the built-in oscillator for venue sound checks.

All You Need to Elevate Your Game
