Review Summary
2020-06-11T20:00:00
Got it not long ago. I does way more than I need, but it is wonderful to have the flexibility to do anything, literally anything, you need. I do film, video, live and studio music. It has been great for all, but It has a learning curve, specially for an old analog studio engineer. But once you get the hang of it, it is actually intuitively layer out and logically set up. Has all the inputs you need, 8 busses, 8 auks, all can be sent to assigned to anything. built in fx are not bad, pre-amps are very good, faders are touch sensitive, screen is bright and clear, which I could bring down the brightness in a live setting, but in the studio it works great. There is really nothing bad I can say about this mixers/control surface/scene recorder (records where things are, faders, pans, pots, encoders, not actual sound).. With more practice I will be far more confident on this device. I recommend any Yamaha digital mixer, they are super high quality and good bang for the buck (albeit the great ones are a lot of bucks!!).
