This manual provides operating instructions for the Yamaha MC-series mixing consoles, available in 8, 12, 16, or 24-channel configurations. The consoles feature electronically balanced inputs, stereo outputs, and a versatile 3-band equalizer with sweepable mid-frequency EQ on each input channel.
The document details the functions of the front panel controls, including input channel settings, master control sections, and various switches for monitoring and routing. It also covers rear panel connectors, application examples, and general specifications for the equipment.
| Input Sensitivity Range (PAD OFF) | -60dB (0.775 mV) to -20dB (77.5 mV) |
|---|---|
| Input Sensitivity Range (PAD ON) | -40dB to 0dB |
| Mid Frequency EQ Range | 350 Hz to 5 kHz |
| High EQ Frequency | 10kHz |
| Low EQ Frequency | 100Hz |
| Power Source (U.S. & Canadian) | 120V AC, 60Hz |
| Power Source (British) | 240V AC, 50Hz |
| Power Source (General) | 230V AC, 50Hz |
The PAD switch attenuates the signal applied to the input by 20dB prior to the head amplifier and input gain control.
The PEAK indicator LED lights when the post-EQ signal of the corresponding channel's input reaches a level 3dB below the clipping level of the channel's circuitry.
The ON switch sends the channel signal to the L and R stereo busses, the MIX outputs, and the three AUX send busses when depressed.
Yes, an internal jumper allows the AUX 1 control to be rewired for post-EQ/post-fader operation.
