Yamaha MG12/4

Rackmount Console 12 votes (four microphone / line inputs and four line inputs Stereo), 2 send / return auxiliary (pre or post fader), insert 6-channel (48v supply), a bus stro.

More information here ( ).

Connection of any kind (XLR, jack, RCA) ... 3-band EQ (very effective) .. no built-in effects
I was looking for smaller, but for the same price, I was twice as big .. So in fact c + ke cell coat what I wanted ....

UTILIZATION

Configuration gnrale super simple. You branches, you put in ON, you go up the gain, volume gnral and rulezzzz .... it's thunder.
Trs simple little we know how it works at least one table.

The manual available at Tlcharger trs complete (and provided in 4 languages), with a section on the sound and the basics of mixing for novices .... all the connections is detailed, and many installation example to identify a little bte.

The case looks strong, while mtal, and yet there's no knob or fader that has dcroch (after one week, it would be a shame too ..) .. for color, we like it or not (a will for me, I have a 61 mc Studiotech all blue lol)

SOUNDS

My configuration:
PC with USB Audiophile.
The master outputs are connected to the MG on my HIFI (until my little monitors .. sniff) output buses to the Audiophile USB, and outputs a channel audiophile USB to Stereo.
APRs have recorded guitars (directly and through amp / Micro), no hiss or noise apparent (I have not the Mickey Mouse ears) ...
The sound is the sound that comes comes out .... The only slight snag, I do not know if just a table or SM57, but you have to push hard trs gain of (3 / 4 limit) for the light peak begins flashing .... the pramplis are super quality but can be expected to cough up a little more my taste .. but I repeat, may be also the SM57 which must be pushed to sound ...
EQ super efficient, high-pass filter (to cut frquences below 80hz) ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using less than a week, and for the moment, adchire ...
What I like is the bus that allows me to get out I want the voices of the audiophile, without nose derrire ds console change my instrument.
I tried a little qq MODEL cheap before (phonic and Beringher), and there's no picture .... Above all, avoid phonic plz.
Report quality price I hallucinating trouce (pay 180 euros in a shop in pa .. Submitted with whom I had same issues when qq)
It's not pro gear, but for that price, I think I have only half the competitors in .... and pramps, they turn more.
I am violent in terms of scoring, but since I'm happy, I do not deny it.
If you want ifnos, hsitez not m'enoyer an email.

Rackable, all inputs (except stro) and outputs of symtriques, 2 Stereo bus with an XLR output, two mono auxiliary buses, 6 pramps of quality!, 3-band non legalization parameter. until 4 in Stereo (two on RCA), headphone output.

solid contruction mtal, may be that the knobs are a bit weak in comparison, but good for the price ...

UTILIZATION

Ultra simple to use for which dj familiaris with the operation of a mixer

bus may be missing some stro more, but only feature big sisters MG24 and MG32.

the legalization is certainly effective, but too little to be adjustable in a really uses config record. Live, may be useful

SOUNDS

Even when it is his strong point, in a manner gnrale, it's pretty clear, however careful the string of gains, or else watch the breath!

Trs good for micro pramplis alone justifying the purchase of the table! even if they do not rivalisaent with the best, they are quite transparent and well Defines. can be a bit harsh discipline or Soft mdium the bottom, which may give an impression of the firm but the chipotte I since I have a Eureka! I happened to catch votes, leaving the Gain knob prampli at least with a AKG C4000B. It is true that the singer possdait a screaming noise to own neighbors.

OVERALL OPINION

I e 6 months I am satisfied with trs. Now I use it primarily as a patch, or taken for Stereo.

The PREAMP are again much better than those other tables (Behringer "IMP" for example) or those supplied with some sound cards and can alone justify the purchase of the console.

The report price is quality of the ball, in view of what is said above does.
