PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
PA_en_8 1/2
•Do not use headphones for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
•Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all devices. Also, before turning the power of all devices on or off, make sure that all volume levels are set to the minimum. Failing to do so may result in hearing loss, electric shock, or device damage.
•When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on the power amplifier LAST, to avoid hearing loss and speaker damage. When turning the power off, the power amplifier should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.
Fire warning
•Do not place any burning items or open flames near the device, since they may cause a fire.
Power supply/AC power adaptor
•Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.
•Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the device.
•Use the specified adaptor only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the device or overheating.
•Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.
•When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, as long as the power cord is not unplugged from the wall AC outlet, the device will not be disconnected from the power source.
•Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
Do not open
•This device contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Water warning
•Do not expose the device to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such as water seeps into the device, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
•Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Hearing loss
•Avoid setting all equalizer controls and faders to their maximum. Depending on the condition of the connected devices, doing so may result in feedback that can cause hearing loss and damage the speakers.
If you notice any abnormality
•If any of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet.
-The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged.
-Unusual smells or smoke are emitted.
-Some object has been dropped into the device.
-There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the device.
-Cracks or other visible damage appear on the device. Then have the device inspected or repaired by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
•If this device or the AC power adaptor should be dropped or damaged, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the device inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the device or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC power adaptor
•Do not cover or wrap the AC power adaptor with a cloth or blanket.
•When removing the electric plug from the device or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
Location
•Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over and cause injuries.
•Do not place the device in a location where it may come into contact with corrosive gases or salt air. Doing so may result in malfunction.
•Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.

PA_en_8 1/2
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the device,
NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.
Handling and maintenance
•Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, AV equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the device, TV, or radio may generate noise.
•Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibration, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day), in order to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration, unstable operation, or damage to the internal components.
•Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the device, since this might discolor the panel.
•When cleaning the device, use a dry and soft cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impreg- nated wiping cloths.
•Condensation can occur in the device due to rapid, drastic changes in ambient temperature—when the device is moved from one location to another, or air conditioning is turned on or off, for example. Using the device while condensation is present can cause damage. If there is reason to believe that condensation might have occurred, leave the device for several hours without turning on the power until the condensation has completely dried out.
•To avoid generating unwanted noise, make sure there is adequate distance (50cm or more) between the AC adaptor and the device.
•Do not apply oil, grease, or contact cleaner to the knobs. Doing so may cause problems with electrical contact or knob motion.
•Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.
•Even when the power switch is in standby status, electricity is still flowing to the device at the minimum level. When you are not using the device for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.
Connectors
XLR-type connectors are wired as follows (IEC60268 standard): pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (-).

Main Features
D-PRE and High-Quality Operational Amplifiers
Mono input channels are equipped with “D-PRE” Class-A discrete microphone preamplifiers. The D-PRE head amplifier features an inverted Darlington circuit used in high-end audio devices. This circuit uses multi-stage amplifying elements to ensure high current and low impedance, for an audio texture with crispness and richness in the low and mid frequencies. Combined with the specially-designed “MG01” operational amp, the overall result is full-bodied reproduction of low frequencies as well as sustained high frequencies. Input channels feature combo jacks, which can accept both XLR and TRS connectors. In addition, PAD circuitry allows line level input, to accommodate a wide variety of instruments.
24 High-Quality Digital Effects
MG12XUK features 24 built-in effects that are based on SPX algorithms used by professionals. In particular, the highquality reverb and delay expand the spatial quality of the sound with remarkable realism and naturalness.
24-bit/192 kHz USB Audio Interface
MG12XUK features a USB 2.0 audio interface capable of 24-bit/192 kHz sound quality. With the audio interface you can play back music from your computer, or use DAW software such as Cubase AI to record the mixer output. The XU models support USB Audio Class 2.0 so you can use them with USB Audio Class 2.0 compliant tablets and other devices, without the need to install drivers. The USB protocol uses asynchronous data transfer. Audio data is transferred based on a highly precise audio clock signal from the MG, for high quality recording and playback.
MG Rec & Play
The MG Rec & Play software application enables recording to an iPhone/iPad connected to MG12XUK, as well as playback of songs and sounds from an iPhone/iPad.This application can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as recording live gigs, providing background music for entertainment events, or sound effects for parties.
