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:
Power supply/Power cord
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device. The
required voltage is printed on the name plate of the device.
• Use only the included power cord.
• 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.
Do not open
• Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble the internal
parts or modify them in any way. The device contains no
user-serviceable parts. 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 containers on it containing liquids
which might spill into any openings.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
If you notice any abnormality
• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if
there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the device, or if
any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it,
immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric
plug from the outlet, and have the idevice inspected by
qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• If this device 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/Power cord
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not
to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical
storms.
• 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.
- On a thick carpet or other such surface
- While it is inside an unventilated touring case
Failure to observe the above precautions may cause the
device to overheat, resulting in equipment damage and fire
hazard.
• Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo
equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise,
the device, TV, or radio may generate noise.
Location
• When transporting or moving the device, always use two or
more people.
• Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
• Avoid setting all equalizer controls and faders to their
maximum. Depending on the condition of the connected
devices, doing so may cause feedback and may damage the
speakers.
• Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or
extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater,
or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel
disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
• Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might
accidentally fall over.
• Never block the vent holes during use. Vent holes are located
on the top, bottom, front, rear, and sides of this machine. All
vent holes must remain unblocked to prevent overheating.
To further ensure adequate ventilation, never use this device…
- Upside down or on its side
- In a poorly ventilated location (in a closet, inside a
bookcase, etc.)
- With its rubber footpads removed
Connections
• Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the
power for all devices. Before turning the power on or off for all
devices, set all volume levels to minimum.
Handling caution
• Do not insert your finger or hand in any gaps or openings on
the device (vents, etc.).
• Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic,
metal, etc.) into any gaps or openings on the device (vents,
etc.). If this happens, turn off the power immediately and
unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the
device inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• Do not use the device or 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.
• Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects
on it, and avoid use excessive force on the buttons, switches or
connectors.

Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the YAMAHA MG32/14FX or MG24/14FX mixing console.
This console offers excellent cost-performance and is ideal for use as the main mixer in an
SR setup or as part of an installed system.
Please read through this Owner’s Manual carefully before beginning use, so that you will be
able to take full advantage of the mixer’s superlative features and enjoy trouble-free operation
for years to come. Be sure to retain this manual in a safe place.
Features Contents
● Provides 24 (MG32/14FX) or 16 (MG24/14FX) monaural input
channels suitable for connection to both microphones and
line-level devices. Also provides four line-level stereo inputs.
● Built-in dual digital effector, based on Yamaha’s acclaimed SPX
multi-effector technology, can apply a variety of internal effects
to both vocal and instrumental inputs.
● Convenient “tap delay” feature lets you set the internal effect’s
delay time by tapping on a button (or by stepping on a separately-sold foot switch).
Provides dual stereo outputs, two effect outputs, six AUX out-
●
puts, and four group outputs—for a total of 14 outputs. You can
use the AUX and GROUP outputs both to connect to external
devices (such as effectors and MTRs) and to create custom
mixes for targeted speakers or amps for stage monitoring.
● An independently controlled MONO output jack feeds out a mix
of the main ST output signal, ideal for connection to a subwoofer
or other SR system extension.
● All monaural channels are equipped with an INSERT I/O jack
for independent connection to an external effector.
● Includes independent PFL switches for each input channel, for
each AUX return, and for the 2TR IN bus, together with independent AFL switches for each AUX and GROUP output and for
the main ST output. These switches make it easy to selectively
monitor the input and output signals through headphones connected to the PHONES jack.
● Phantom power supply can provide DC +48 power to all XLR
input jacks, allowing you to connect phantom-powered condenser mics and direct boxes to any combination of monaural
channels. The phantom power can be independently switched on
and off in eight-channel blocks.
● Dual RETURN jacks can feed AUX return signals not only into
the ST bus but also into four of the AUX buses. These jacks can
also serve as an auxiliary stereo input.

Connecting to Power Setting Up
Introduction
(1) Be sure that the mixer’s power switch is off ( ).
(2) Connect the socket end of the power cord to the AC IN connec-
tor on the rear of the mixer.
(3) Plug the other end of the power cord into a standard household
power outlet.
Be sure to unplug the power cord from the outlet if
you are not going to use the mixer again for an
extended period, and whenever there are lightning
storms in the area.
(1) Before connecting to microphones and instruments, be sure
that all devices are turned off. Also be sure that all of the
mixer’s channel faders and master control faders are set all the
way down.
(2) For each connection, connect one end of the cable to the rele-
vant microphone or instrument and connect the other end to the
appropriate input jack on the mixer.
NOTE
(3) Power up the devices in the following order: Peripheral devices
→ mixer → power amps (or powered speakers).
NOTE
On each monaural channel, you may use either
INPUT A or INPUT B, but not both. On stereo channels that provide both a phone input jack and an
RCA-pin input jack, you may use either of these but
not both. Please connect to only one of these jacks
on each channel.
When shutting the system down, turn off the power
in the opposite order: Power amps (powered speakers) → mixer → peripheral devices.
Do not block the vents. Vent holes are located on the
top, bottom, front, rear, and sides of this machine. All
vent holes must remain unblocked to prevent overheating.
