The Yamaha MG166C-USB is a versatile compact audio mixer designed for both project studio and live sound applications. The mixer features 16 total input channels with 1/4" TRS phone inputs on all channels and 10 XLR microphone inputs. Channels 1 through 10 are mono while 9/10, 11/12, 13/14 and 15/16 feature stereo paired 1/4" TRS phone inputs for connecting stereo devices such as keyboards, recorders etc. In addition, a built-in compressor is available on all mono channels for vocals, instruments, etc.
A USB port is provided and integrates with a PC for direct, digital recording and playback. A copy of Cubase AI4 recording software is also included. The MG166C-USB provides plenty of routing possibilities with 1/4" TRS inserts on all mono channels. Inserts send signal to external signal processors and effects and allow the signal to be returned to the original channel. The stereo outputs can be grouped with the provided stereo group bus for a total of 4 output buses. Three-band EQ sections provide high pass filter and sweepable mid-range. All microphone inputs are capable of providing +48V phantom power. The MG166C-USB is a suitable solution for project recording studios, video editing facilities, and live sound reinforcement.
