I was about to plump for that TASCAM model 12 ….. and then I saw this…I already have a Yamaha ag03 and it was EXCELLENT !!! I do like that the TASCAM can be used as as daw controller as well as MTR and AI…. EXCELLENT TUTORIAL ..
Yeah that’s disappointing- i purchased this without checking further- I was expecting at least 4 inputs but to know only captures 2 is a serious bummer.. I have a tiny usb interface that can do that job.
The interface is just for recording the stereo mix / 2 ch out of the mixer (whether youre mixing all 10 chs or less) , most lower end mixers have this functionality with usb. To have a multitrack recording mixer where it can record more than 2 tracks at a time you're looking at quadruple the price easily. If you only do home recordings by yourself, this mixer is an excellent choice but if you're a band wanting to track live, this isn't a good option.
Hello, What is dynamic recording range? Can I use it in professional studio recording? For example, is there much difference compared to Motu M4? Thanks
This is great and all, but is there any way to listen to the first two tracks while recording a 3rd and 4th? I keep getting audio from previous tracks on new recorded tracks
I understand that you can record two inputs. Can you record the stereo output of all the mics being used on the mixer? Can it be recorded as a stereo pair via USB?
"stereo pair via usb" that's a combined question. The usb will output a stereo signal no matter the inputs. If you pan the inputs, you can turn this mixer into a multi-track ...outputter, for lack of a better word (it's not a recorder) ...as in a 2 track recorder. However you pan the inputs will be sent via stereo out. This thing is a ...what...10? input device? 10 input 2 output. 10 in MIXER...2 output...left and right.
Is it possible to have one microphone connected for live streaming video game being captured through a elgato capture card connected to that mixer and have two separate controls for the same microphone? So one volume control would be for you to hear yourself at a lower volume and the other control would be for your stream’s volume? Single mic two volume controls one for you one for them? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Good video...but I was thinking: I have a Moog Werkstatt and just got an Arturia MicroFreak plus the Yamaha MG10XU and a Steinberg UR22C Audio Interface. For the 2 synths do I just pick and choose what is recorded? I also noticed my Werkstatt sounds Mono when running straight to the Audio Interface...any way to make it sound like its Stereo? Sorry...Newbie...😅
Just to make absolutely sure: The Yamaha has 4 XLR/line inputs and an extra 6 line only inputs. Is it then possible to plug in, for example, 4 mics in the XLRs and guitar and bass in 2 of the 6 line inputs and finally, two keyboards with stereo out to the additional 4 line ins, pan them all and have Garageband pick them up as 10 separate channels?
From what I've understood: your DAW will always only pick up 2 incoming channels (Left + Right), and it is from the mixer that you'll define which physical channels are routed to OUT Left or OUT Right. But to be clear, incoming Left channel will be a single audio track made of the mix of everything you panned Left, and incoming Right channel will be a single audio track made of the mix of everything you panned Right. There's no way you can send more than 2 single tracks to your DAW, using these not-multitrack USB audio mixers (Yamaha, Mackie, Soundcraft, Behringer, etc.). Some recommend the Tascam multitrack range, or the Behringer UFX range.
Is it possible to connect a guitar to the mixer and then use the speakers that are plugged into the computer as speakers? and then use an amp sim program like Amplitube?
Hi! I've been using my dynamic mic and the background noise is really zero when i use it with my creative soundcard. But when i used my MG10XU, the background noise is really high. Are there any ways for me to decrease the background noise?
Need your help, im using yamaha mg12xu with cubase Le, audio playback is bleeding whenever i record a new track? I think there is a loopback issue and i cant fix it.
Thanks for all the helpful videos. I want to connect my iPad (lightning connection) to my MG10XU and then to my laptop to record with Audacity. What cable do I need to send music from the iPad to the mixer and where do I plug it in? Thanks!
Does the same approach apply if you were going to use a keyboard? I was not able to get the best audio output after recording a track following the manual. I also had high levels of hissing that could be heard through my headphones.
Hello & thank you for the tutorial, it worked for me with Logic Pro but the I can’t figure out how turn off the metronome even though it’s turned off 😅 is there a way plz ?
@@kettnercreative Hello ! How do can I perfectly setup stereo record mix ? Like, have good setting for recording a live session of a band. Thank u and sorry for my bad english
Great video, thanks. Question - can I use this usb output to a DAW to record ALL channel inputs (say I have 2 mics and 2 stereo keyboards hooked up) to 2 channel stereo vs. multitrack?
Thank you for a helpful tutorial! When I am recording piano and vocals simultaneously the sound is split in my headpohones due to the left/right pan. Is there a way to record and hear the sound merged as if it was not panned? Thanks for help.
I am trying to record with the MG10XU going from the usb port to my mac and using the audacity program. Audacity recognizes the MGXU input but the playback is just chipmunk like sounds. When I switch to built in mics on the mac it sounds normal. Does the MGXU not interface with audacity. Thanks.
Can you get the MG10XU working in Garageband? I've never had a problem with it in any problem. Some people are having issues with some Macs with M1 chips, but I haven't heard of any Yamaha users with this issue. I currently use the Yamaha AG06 as my daily streaming/converencing/etc. interface and have zero issues on my new M1 Mac.
Hi! Did you already figure it out? I have the same mixer and I've been trying to record on Cubase, but it doesn't show the 16 physical ports, just two.
Peace, I recorded Vocals, Keyboard, and Bass. But obviously they could be all be heard in each other's tracks. I can't pan them to the left or right before recording because then the sound coming out of the speakers will be panned to one side. How can I fix this in my recording?
Unfortunately if you're using speakers in a live environment, you'll need something like the Yamaha TF-16 in order to multi-track record while keeping your live event mixed properly.
@@kettnercreative thank you. How about my recordings? Vox track has the keyboard and bass on it. And the same for all the other tracks. Should I just put limiters on them?
The mixer itself can't do this with this particular recording method. That being said, you could use something like this: geni.us/kzKRaB to sum the audio of your headphones.
I cant even get audio from the mixer to show up in Ableton? I can hear it on my monitors but inputs 1 and 2 have no signal coming in...what am I doing wrong?
Which means that you can multi track two clips, as demonstrated in this video. At the end of this video we have two distinct audio clips (not a single stereo clip). Exactly the same as multi tracking from a 2 input audio interface. As long as you pan, and setup two tracks in your DAW when recording, it works perfectly like a 2 channel audio interface.
Congratulations for the video. You explained all the content on a simple way, and made it understandable even for a non native english speaker. Greetings from Brazil.
@@kettnercreative Question... Are you familiar with running multi audio interfaces simultanuosly within a DAW through the Aggregate option in your Audio MIDI Setup (Mac)? If so, will the MG10XU be detected as another "audio interface" through the Mac? I haven't had a chance to try it out myself, but I was wondering if you ever tried it.
Yes.. You are right.. this is not multi-track recording at all.. splits stereo input into two mono tracks.. but this will be useful for people who wants to manage with two mono inputs..
HI, great video, thanks for sharing, this is a nice machine, I've been using it for over 2 years for singing small venues over pre-recorded music tracks.

Hello, I have Behringer Xeynx QX1204 and when i pan the audio to the right i get no audio signal in audacity but when i pan it to the mid or left I get a normal signal to both channels, anyone knows a solution to this?

I’m trying to record only the keyboard however the mixer is also recording in the background the instrumental that plays on my monitors. How can I sort this out?
This is the biggest problem with MG10XU to me--you can't record anything without hauling a laptop with you. I would pay another $100 easy to just get a capability to record just in stereo to an SD card or thumb drive. I'm not sure I would buy the Yamaha MG10XU again, for just this reason.
If you can only use two inputs (mics), might as well just use an interface. I’d like to use 3 mics but I guess that’s not possible with a multi channel mixer 🤔
@@aaronbattle8559 Sorry my answer was incomplete! MG10xu it's capable for recording just 2 tracks same time,when you are using USB connection to a PC, but if you are singing live, all channels works!

Thank you. I have audio tracks that I’m going to be using, and one mic. I think I’m ready to record. But when I plug everything in, I notice there is already noise being monitored by the green light. Can you or someone tell me what each of my levels should be, also that I might be able to hear myself in my headphones as well? Thank you.
If you're hearing interference/electrical noise, turning on Phatom Power (+48V) on the audio interface fixes it for me for microphone recordings, should work for you as well.
I've had the MG10xu for years but have never used it as an audio interface. I also have the Behringer UMC404HD and the new Mackie DLZ but for simplicity sake, I think I'm just gonna use the MG10xu. I will have 1 mic, digital piano (L&R), acoustic guitar and electric guitar (L&R) (through stereo effects). My question is: can I select ANY 2 of the 10 inputs to record in my DAW or can i only record channels 1 & 2 on the MG10xu? Thank you!
Hey man, quick question. Got the usb and got it setup on my DAW (audacity) but when I do the playback it doesn’t play back through the mg10 from the DAW, I’m new to this stuff so I may sound dumb but I can’t seem to figure it out. Do I just go through the computer headphone jack (does it matter) or is there a way to listen to the recorded vocals through the mg10. This may make little to no sense so I’m sorry lol

Set your 9/10 channel to USB, and then "To Mon". Then use your headphones plugged into the MG10XU. This will allow you to monitor from Garageband.
what if there is more than 2 microphone? let say 5 microphone?
I've had the MG10xu for years but have never used it as an audio interface. I also have the Behringer UMC404HD and the new Mackie DLZ but for simplicity sake, I think I'm just gonna use the MG10xu. I will have 1 mic, digital piano (L&R), acoustic guitar and electric guitar (L&R) (through stereo effects).
My question is: can I select ANY 2 of the 10 inputs to record in my DAW or can i only record channels 1 & 2 on the MG10xu?
Thank you!
I thought it is multitrack, but only 2 tracks
Is there a reason why 4 mics wouldn't work?
Thank you
What a focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd gen can do that this usb Yamaha mixer cannot with respect to audio monitoring?
Ppl say the interfaces have a better sound or whatever...I have the Yamaha and it sounds good to me plus all the other stuff on it.
Hey man, quick question. Got the usb and got it setup on my DAW (audacity) but when I do the playback it doesn’t play back through the mg10 from the DAW, I’m new to this stuff so I may sound dumb but I can’t seem to figure it out. Do I just go through the computer headphone jack (does it matter) or is there a way to listen to the recorded vocals through the mg10. This may make little to no sense so I’m sorry lol
If I am a solo vocal performance should I pan hard left?
It works with cubase tho right?
Hi Jordan, that was excellent and I do want to have that mixer. The only question is, can you connect two active 12" speaker to hear the recording? Thank you.
Yes you can. I always recommend headphones if you're recording though. Less feedback.
@@kettnercreative Thank you so much Jordan, will use headphone instead. 👍
I need help with my Yahama MG10XUF. I’m trying to use it to record audio(microphone, etc) and I set up my mixer with fl studio 20. On fl studio I select audio settings and chose ASIO 128samples rate. So far everything good. I open a beat on fl and also do all the channeling to get ready to record. I’m able to record e all of that but Now my issue is that I want to know how can I record vocals on my microphone and mute the monitors while recording? I’m not sure if the mixer can do it or if I need to choose any option on the daw. Can you help? The only work around i found Is to turn down the monitors volume knob on the back while recording because mixer does not have any button to lower Monitors volume.

Talking about preamps, are the Scarlett 2i2 3rd better than this Yamaha Mixer?
They're almost identical with noise, but the Yamaha supplies 64dB of gain and the Scarlett supplies 57dB.
Ohh looks like I can't really use this for my drum covers recording? planning on using this for a 4 mic setup(Recorderman 2 overheads, 1 snare mic and 1 bassdrum mic)
I want to use accurate stereo imaging on the Recorder Man overhead mics. Looks like its impossible for this console?
Hello, can we record in computer separate track per channel?? Or just one track channel only, i have plan to buy this for recording a full band
