Yamaha EMX312SC - Analog mixer with SPX - powered - 12-channel - 600 Watt

Yamaha EMX312SC analog mixer - 12-channel

Key Features and Benefits: All-in-one for easy operation and fast setup The EMX-series powered mixers integrate mixer, power amplifier, graphic EQ, and digital effects into a compact, portable unit. No need for complex setup and wiring - simply plug in and play! The entire system is optimized, so it's easy to get great sound just about anywhere. Superior sound through painstaking design and parts selection Parts selection is crucial to achieving the best possible sound, and Yamaha spares no effort in selecting the best. The critical head amplifier circuit, for example, uses special low-noise chip resistors that are deposited on a thin film of nichrome for accurate, noise-free reproduction. Special care has also been taken in laying out the system's grounding as well as the circuitry in general to ensure that no unwanted noise or interference degrades the quality of the sound. Built-in SPX effects Yamaha's SPX effects are widely recognized as being some of the finest available for both recording and live sound. The EMX-series powered mixers feature an SPX effect processor built in, delivering extraordinary effect quality with 32-bit processing. 16 effect programs with adjustable parameters give you top-quality digital reverb, echo, delay, modulation, and distortion. High-efficiency power amplifiers To make the EMX-series powered mixers light and manageable, the power amplifiers used must be extremely efficient while providing superior sound quality. In fact, the EMX power amplifiers are remarkably efficient, delivering high power with relatively low power consumption and heat generation. At the same time they deliver outstanding audio quality with excellent transient response and low distortion. Lightweight, practical design In the EMX series reduced weight does not mean reduced performance. The cabinet is formed of a special lightweight-but-rugged material, while a switching power supply delivers all the clean power the system needs. The power amp itself has also been refined for outstanding sound, extra high efficiency, and reliable performance. The cabinet design allows normal or angled placement for improved visibility and access. Uncompromising reliability and safety standards The EMX-series powered mixers not only meet worldwide safety and electronic emission standards, but they are also subject to more than sixty rigorous internal Yamaha tests that guarantee the highest possible level of reliability. Forced air keeps the system cool even in difficult conditions Airflow can be compromised when a powered mixer is rack mounted, and direct sunlight in outdoor applications can raise temperatures to dangerous levels. The EMX-series mixers feature a forced-air cooling system that has been custom-designed for each model to ensure reliable operation and high performance even under difficult conditions. Compressor circuit on the EMX312SC Each mono input channel on the EMX312SC features an advanced compressor circuit that lets you achieve the ideal degree of compression with a single knob. Setting up optimal compression for a source is usually a complicated process, but this unique compressor makes it easy to achieve "musical" compression for enhanced vocal or guitar sound. Yamaha speaker processing Yamaha speaker processing provides optimized matching with Yamaha Concert Club series, BR series or AX series speakers, for clean, solid reproduction that will deliver your music with maximum impact. Power amp mode selector The power amp mode switch allows the internal power amplifiers to be configured in a variety of ways. A simple switch setting allows you to set up the ideal main and monitor output configuration for your application.
