The Yamaha MG06X is Yamaha's most compact mixing desk of the new MG III range, an ideal choice for small duets or solo performers that don't need the bells and whistles of a 24 channel desk on stage.Super quiet and clean sound - provided you setup your gain structure for maximum signal input without the clip LEDs ever lighting up.

The 3rd generation of the Yamaha MG Mixer brings with it some neat updated features, great build quality and the same great sound and flexibility that we have come to expect from a Yamaha mixing console. I doubt it may have something to do with my setup or headset, but the hiss is very apparent when the knob is halfway up.
