Yamaha MG32/14FX
Yamaha MG32/14FX Description:
MG32/14FX 32-input, 14-bus mixer with dual DSP
Serious Capacity For Sound Reinforcement & Installations
If your application is live sound reinforcement you'll want all the channel capacity you can get – just in case.
Vocal mics, instrument mics, stereo keyboards, direct-injection feeds, drum mics, and the rest can add up very quickly. With 24 and 32 input channels, respectively, the MG24/14FX and MG32/14FX are ready to handle all but the most ambitious sound-reinforcement setups.
And with dual SPX digital effect systems on-board you won't need racks of outboard gear to get the sound you need.
There's also a comprehensive range of group and auxiliary busses to make even complex mixes easy.
INPUT SECTION
24 or 32 Input Channels
Choose either the 24-channel MG24/14FX or the 32-channel MG32/14FX according to your needs.
All other features are the same. The MG24/14FX has 16 mono microphone/line channels while the MG32/14FX has 24.
Both offer four stereo line channels in addition to the mono mic/line channels. Gain trim covers a wide – 60dB ~; -16dB range for microphone input, and -34dB ~; +10dB for line input.
Peak indicators are also provided for effect input gain setup.
A Variety of Input Connectors
Balanced XLR and phone-jack connectors are provided on all mono inputs (channels 1 ~; 16 on the MG24/14FX, and channels 1 ~; 24 on the MG32/14FX).
Two of the stereo channels feature both pin-jack and phone jack connectors. A separate stereo 2TR input with pin-jack connectors is provided for independent input of signals from CD players or similar sources.
Low-noise, High-precision Mic Preamps
All 16 mic preamps in the MG24/14FX and all 24 mic preamps in the MG32/14FX are of exemplary quality.
They offer low-noise, transparent amplification with the widest possible range of dynamic and condenser microphones, which adds up to cleaner, better-sounding mixes.
Switchable Phantom Power
All mic preamps feature switchable +48V phantom power for phantom-powered studio condenser microphones.
Phantom power is switchable in 8-channel groups.
Insert I/O
points so you can insert compressors, EQ, or other extra signal-processing gear into the channel signal path as required.
Insert patch points are also provided on the stereo and group buses for effective output processing.
Versatile EQ for Effective Sound Shaping
Mono channels feature 3-band equalizers with HIGH (10 kHz), LOW (100 Hz), and MID (250 Hz ~; 5 kHz sweep) bands.
High-pass filters are also provided on all microphone inputs.
Stereo channels have 4-band equalizers with HIGH (10 kHz shelving), HI MID (3 kHz peaking), LOW MID (800 Hz peaking), and LOW (100 Hz shelving) bands.
MASTER SECTION
14 Buses In All For Flexible Signal Routing
In addition to lots of input channels, live sound reinforcement applications usually demand a number of additional mixes – usually in the form of group submixes and aux sends for external signal processing and monitor mixes.
In both the MG24/14FX and MG32/14FX you have a total of 14 mix buses: the main stereo program bus, four stereo group bus pairs for convenient channel grouping, six auxiliary busses (four configurable for pre- or post-fader operation and two set up as effect sends), and two internal effect busses that feed the dual high-performance built-in effect processors.
You can use the bus select switches and controls on each channel to assign the channel signal to the stereo, group, internal effect, and AUX buses as required.
Six Aux Sends & Two Stereo Aux Returns
All input channels feature six AUX send controls. AUX sends 1 through 4 are pre/post switchable while AUX 5 and 6 are post-fader sends.
Two effect sends are also provided. You choose you have plenty of flexibility for external signal processing and monitoring in live sound-reinforcement applications.
Two stereo auxiliary returns are included, as well as return facilities for the internal effect stages.
A Comprehensive Selection Of Output Connectors
In addition to the main L and R XLR and phone-jack stereo outputs, these versatile mixers also offer L and R phone-jack sub-stereo, pin-jack recording, XLR mono, and stereo phone-jack headphone outputs.
You have plenty of outputs for a wide range of applications – monitoring, master recorder feed, etc. Phone-jack group outputs are also provided to allow independent output of the group bus mixes.
Balanced XLR Stereo and Mono Outputs
Professional connectivity is provided by reliable XLRtype balanced stereo and mono outputs.
Sweepable LPF for Mono Out
One of the many uses for a mono output is to drive a subwoofer system.
The MG24/14FX and MG32/14FX make this easier than ever with a built-in 80 ~; 120 Hz sweepable low-pass filter on the mono outputs.
12-segment Meters for Accurate Visual Monitoring
Output level monitoring is made accurate and easy with four high-visibility 12-segment level meters that can be switched to display the stereo, group, 2TR input, PFL (Pre-fader Listen), and AFL (After-fader Listen) signal levels.
EASE OF USE
Dual SPX Digital Effects
In the MG24/14FX and MG32/14FX you have not one, but two highperformance digital signal processing stages, fed by separate effect buses, so you can enhance your mix with two separate effects at the same time.
And the effects are provided by the very latest Yamaha DSP technology – you know you're getting the best. Each stage provides a selection of 16 professional quality SPX digital effects, including reverb, delay, pitch change, chorus, phasing, vocal doubling, distortion, and more.
Parameter controls that can be adjusted to tailor the effects to your sonic requirement are also provided and Tap delay makes it easy to produce tempo-synchronized delays.
Reliable 60-millimeter Faders & Illuminated Switches
Reliable, high-performance 60-millimeter faders provide smooth, noise-free level control.
while original Yamaha illuminated ON (ST buss assign), PFL (Pre-Fader Listen), and phantom power switches provide easy visual confirmation of critical console settings.
Talkback Input
Communication capability is important for efficient setup as well as for keeping a show running smoothly.
The MG24/14FX and MG32/14FX both feature a talkback system that allows the FOH engineer to communicate with the monitor engineer, performers, or other staff to keep the team operating at optimum efficiency.
Compact, Portable Design
Compact and surprisingly light in weight, these mixers can easily be carried just about anywhere.
You get top quality mixing performance in the rehearsal studio, club, outdoors ... wherever you need it.
