Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The MG12X CV brings 12-input mixing, a balanced stereo output, and fader control to a steel-chassis Yamaha mixer. Its two AUX sends include the built-in SPX effect path and a separate monitoring path, while four channels offer single-knob compression. D-Pre discrete Class-A microphone preamps, 24 SPX programs, and XLR, 1/4-inch phone, and RCA-type pin-jack inputs cover a varied source list. Illuminated channel on/off switches make channel status easier to see, and the effects can be muted by footswitch.
