Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built for larger source counts, Yamaha's MG16X CV accommodates up to 16 inputs and provides a balanced stereo output in a rugged steel chassis. The layout uses faders with illuminated channel on/off switches, helping you see channel status while mixing. Four AUX sends, including the built-in effects path, expand routing options; the SPX section supplies 24 programs. Eight channels add single-knob compression, and the mixer accepts XLR, 1/4-inch phone, and RCA-type pin-jack inputs with XLR and phone outputs.
