Review: Great sound and features. - This is a high quality, great sounding mixer that's easy to set up and use. I originally bought the 10 channel version to connect media source (iTunes/Apple Music) to existing amplifier for practicing drums. Once I got it, I connected a few low quality mics to my Kick and snare drum and Oh Man! this really woke up my drums. I immediately bought the 12 channel version to mic up the rest of my drums (8 pc set) and record my playing. PROs: Easy set up (plug and play to MacBook via USB for playback (Apple Music) and recording (Garage Band) with great sound using 5 low end mics. (2 overhead, kick, hats and snare). FX really adds to overall sound/experience. Excellent mixer for live performances. CONs: Only has 6 mic inputs and 6 balanced (RCA-1/4" Phono jacks) so I wasn't able to mic up my additional 6 toms (used overhead mics for toms and cymbals). Also, the "final mix" is done on the mixer itself, pre recording, meaning the output is stereo only (2 tracks using left/right if you use pan knobs on 2 channels) vs. multi track recording, so no adjustments/fine tuning can be done on individual channels/mics in the mix post recording. Due to the cons and wanting "best of both worlds" (live performance with multi track recording) and more importantly, more mic inputs for toms. I ended up returning this mixer. I've considered the 16 and 20 channel versions of this mixer by Yamaha but overall cost would get me more inputs but still not have multitrack adjustment flexibility post recording. Leaning towards an audio interface by PreSonus or Focusrite for recording and possibly feed the output of that to the 6 or 10 channel Yamaha MG**XU for live/practice. This is a great mixer and sorry I had to return it. I would definitely recommend this mixer if you don't need excessive mic inputs with multi track, post recording processing. ## Features - 12-Channel mixer with USB and SPX digital effects - Featuring studio-grade discrete class-A D-PRE preamps with inverted Darlington circuit - providing fat, natural sounding bass and smooth, soaring highs - 3-band EQ and high-pass filters give you maximum control and eliminate unwanted noise, resulting in a cleaner mix - 1-Knob compressors allow easy control - resulting in livelier guitars, punchier bass lines, a tighter snare and a cleaner vocal sound. - MG Series mixers feature a rugged, impact-resistant, powder-coated metal chassis.Crosstalk:-78 dB ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00IBIVLKQ | | Audio Input | XLR | | Best Sellers Rank | #385 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #2 in DJ Mixers | | Brand | Yamaha | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 349 Reviews | | Frequency | 192 KHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00086792990583, 04957812553919 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 15.63"D x 19.06"W x 7.99"H | | Item Highlight | 12-input mixer with D-PRE preamps, USB interface and FX for performances, recordings and lectures | | Item Type Name | 12-Input Stereo Mixer with Effects and USB Interface | | Item Weight | 4.2 kg | | Manufacturer | Yamaha PAC | | Manufacturer Part Number | MG12XU | | Model Number | MG12XU | | Noise Level | 26 db | | Number of Channels | 12 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Output Connector Type | USB Type B | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 15.63"D x 19.06"W x 7.99"H | | Software Update Supported to Date | unknown | | UPC | 613815614487 086792990583 700355947974 600599651623 600599646032 632709974872 989899019488 086792334547 658700906650 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 48 volts | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer warranty yamaha corporation of america (yamaha) is proud of the experience and craftsmanship that goes into every product we represent.

This operates on USB and does not have any recording capability built-in. This is used to record multiple sources at one time and make that into one Stereo/Mono audio output that can be used with a recording software, streaming software, or even a live speaker system. You can record the main output via computer, but even then, this will all be one audio stream, not one for each separate channel. **Q: Is this mixer capable of "mix minus" configuration? If so how is it done? I cant seem to get it to produce any audio from the "fx send" port** A: been trying to determine this for my own setup. thus far it seems No as the AUX is post fader. im trying to isolate the mic on the FX send and have it removed from the main mix.. nothing seems to allow this to happen. i can get the FX send to work but if the usb and the FX send are connected to the same source, both signals carry the mic audio... **Q: Can I add echo and reverb at to the mic?** A: This mixer will only do one effect per channel if your are only using the internal DSP. I believe you can input reverb or chorus, etc into a channel along with a guitar signal if your using a guitar processor like a Line 6 brand. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality good price sounds great perfect deal *by M***. on March 9, 2026* All for me is working really really great I use it for many many years this is the second one I buy it at the first one I still have it working great but I need an spare sometimes I go do some DJ and other places and I have one ready set up for practice at my house is one of the best I get I have one market to is great too but you know Yamaha is Yamaha really good quality really good material good price really good everything I really love it sounds great easy to connect not issues at all I'm so happy with this .... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sound and features. *by B***S on February 13, 2024* This is a high quality, great sounding mixer that's easy to set up and use.

All are still working! That's the point. Reliability is paramount in all Yamaha sound equipment. Even more important is sound quality. This mixer follows that by demonstrating that it is sonically appealing with very little tweaking. This proves it can handle a wide range of inputs with ease. Mixing live instruments with digital inputs doesn't cause dark, muddy lows or brittle sounding highs. Vocals will come to the front as expected with the rest of the ensemble separated and authentic as envisioned by the operator. This is a lovely instrument. Compact yet powerful. A good investment. ## Frequently Bought Together - Yamaha MG12XU 12-Input 4-Bus Mixer with Effects - CASEMATIX Mixer Carry Case Compatible with Yamaha MG12XU 12 Channel Mixing Console and More - IPX7 Waterproof Hard Shell Sound Board Carrier with Foam Fits Mixers up to 17" x 12.1" x 5" and Cables - Cable Matters 2-Pack Premium XLR to XLR Cables - 6ft, Male to Female Microphone Cable, Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Mic Cord, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/2017832-mg12xu-12-input-4-bus-mixer-with-effects](https://www.desertcart.no/products/2017832-mg12xu-12-input-4-bus-mixer-with-effects) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
