Yamaha has launched its new MGX series digital mixers, which combine the highly successful legacy of the MG mixer range with the latest features and — for the first time for Yamaha — video capture and streaming.
For many years, Yamaha’s compact MG series mixers have delivered the perfect balance of features, ease of use and cost-effectiveness for small- to medium-sized venues, live musicians, conferencing, education and recording applications.
Unveiled at the NAMM Show 2026, the new all-digital MGX series ushers in an era of MG excellence. Driven by Yamaha’s pursuit of True Sound — faithfully capturing and reproducing every audio nuance — MGX mixers feature an impressive expansion of functionality for the ever-changing landscape of sound reinforcement and production.

Available in four models, the 12/16-channel MGX12 and MGX16 are joined by the MGX12V and MGX16V, which feature an HDMI-USB audio/video interface with capture and pass-through functions. This enables users to simultaneously capture video to a PC or Mac and record or stream it together with the audio.
MGX models feature premium-quality microphone preamps on mic/line combo inputs, delivering an impressive 86 dB gain range with ultra-low distortion, plus eight line and Bluetooth audio inputs, two XLR outputs, six or eight TRS OMNI outputs and four headphone ports.
Dual Main/Sub USB ports allow a wide range of audio sources and devices to be integrated with the MGX series. The main USB port enables up to 22 tracks of recording/playback with the MGX16/16V and 18 with the MGX12/12V, while the sub USB port allows two tracks of recording/playback. All four MGX series mixers also provide up to 16 tracks of audio recording and two tracks of playback direct to/from a microSD card.
With powerful DSP providing highly creative tools — including noise gate, compressor, EQ, delay, reverb, amp simulator and voice changer — and latency-free monitoring, MGX series mixers are supplied with a Steinberg music production software suite. All of this comes in a rugged design that weighs just 5.0 kg for maximum portability.
By adding products from Yamaha’s comprehensive ranges of speakers, microphones, headphones and more, users can build a system that meets a wide range of audio and hybrid video production demands.
