Review Summary
The Yamaha N8 8-Channel Digital Mixing Studio delivers the flexibility, processing and sound quality of a digital mixer, with the familiarity and comfort of an analog mixer's control.
The N8 is an eight-channel recording mixer with four high quality microphone preamps, four mono line inputs and two stereo-coupled line inputs. Two FireWire ports integrate directly with a PC or Mac based computer and Cubase AI4 is also included to provide a complete desktop recording and mixing workstation.
Internal digital processing supports 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96kHz sample rates and features such as Sweet Spot Morphing compression, High-resolution Rev-X Reverb and a 3-band musical EQ deliver all the internal processing necessary for intuitive, professional standard mixing. Additional features include MIDI input and output ports for interfacing controller keyboards and other MIDI devices and a foot-switch for guitarists and other musicians.
The Yamaha N8 is an ideal project studio mixer for anyone who desires the flexibility of digital audio processing, without sacrificing an analog mixer's interface, routing and feel.
