The Yamaha MG12XU is a 12-channel analog mixer with USB interface. It's a great console for smaller bands, corporate rental and AV work as well as simple home recording. In contrast to the MG20XU series this one is filmed with me behind the camera, which allows you to see all the small details of the knobs, faders and controls.

    This is the best Yamaha MG12XU mixer tutorial I've come across on YouTube. You've explained everything very well. Thank you

    I am an electrical engineer by trade. Rarely does one encounter such concise language. Bravo.

    Hands down some of the best tutorials on Youtube! Thank you sir!
  • Wow. I am so glad I stumbled upon your video. Just bought the Yamaha M612XU Mixed today and watching this is so much better then reading the manual. Thanks for your work.

    This is by far the best mixer tutorial I've come across on YouTube. I'm using this mixer now and you've explained everything I needed to know. Thank you.

  • Just bought one of these (my first mixer), and can't believe how much it can do! I'm used to all the vintage gear, and your video is super helpful! Thank you!

    i think thats what does "i hear you, loud and clear" exactly mean. Thank you!!
  • @gelodudepare
    Brilliant. Wish this came out sooner before I had to figure the MG12XU myself in a live setting!
  • @yiiyatschan1395
    Thank you for this video. A very helpful introduction to not only the mixer, but the concepts involved as well.
  • @intrascendente
    I truly found this tutorial super useful, therefore, I think I've fallen in love with your way of give instructions. Thank you so much! <3

    You are a good teacher. Most other YouTubers should learn from you.
  • @DrewCreal
    That is the most proper English I have ever heard. Excellent video.

    Just when I was starting to think about saving for a bit more time and getting this one instead of either the mg10xuf or the profx8 you post this video. Didn't even have to ask for it this time. Thanks again for sharing the knowledge. Bye, I have a video to watch.
