For years I have lamented the fact that playing guitar is not as convenient for me as it was when I was a kid with a cheap practice amp always connected to my guitar. These days I don't have an amp so I rely on my Mac to provide amp emulation. In addition, my digital piano doesn't have speakers, so I was faced with using headphones or powering everything up to use a virtual instrument with MIDI. I have nice Genelec powered monitors so have always wanted a simple solution that lets me spontaneously start playing without having to fiddle around to get set up. This mixer helps me achieve that by keeping everything connected with quick and easy volume control for all channels. Input-wise: plenty for me including a mic channel with phantom power, a guitar-optimised channel with amp sim and reverb, a separate keyboard channel and a dedicated volume pot to control the USB audio output from your computer. With young kids in the house it's nice to have hardware controls immediately to hand to stop you waking them up! Input signal quality is good but is limited to left and right channels, so you can't track from multiple sources and mix later. Doesn't bother me as I write and record alone these days but if you're a small group doing a live recording you'd better be tight and get it right first time. Output is good without noise over 1/4 inch TRS to XLR. I'm not sure if it's balanced or not but as my monitors take balanced inputs and there's no noise I'd guess it is. The amp sim is edited with a standalone app for Windows/Mac. It sounds alright and once you save your settings they stay in the mixer even if you power it off. Next time you switch on (even disconnected from your computer) you'll be able to call up the same amp sim, but beware the only physical control over the amp sim is on/off. This goes for the reverb too. I have a nice clean sound on there that lets me noodle around for a bit when I get the urge, but if you want crunch/OD you'll find it pretty noisy for some reason. In general most plugins for Logic etc will sound better but at least I can play guitar immediately without firing up my computer. Best things are the small size, USB power and simple functionality. If you have similarly minimal needs to me then it'll do you just fine. Review: Awesome little box - Basically, this is a really awesome 192KHz/24bit sound card with 6 channel mixer and all controls you ever wanted your sound card to have on a physical breakout device. My synth, guitar and a great mic are all connected now and it is super easy to record or play without any faffing about with cables and such. Also, the convenience of not having to click to control volume or select source is just awesome. Sound quality is brilliant and noise is non-existent. The only way to get any measurable noise out of this is if you turn on guitar amplifier simulation - steer clear of this switch (AMP SIM) and you have pristine sound. To be fair, amps do tend to produce this kind of noise so perhaps emulation is accurate in that regard too. Latency can be driven to ridiculously low levels and ASIO driver that comes with this is super simple to configure and use. No clicks or pops on switching on or off or plugging in instruments (at least in my setup). I didn't need to install separate grounding for this as some other people suggested - sound is pristine without. Build quality is great too. All switches, pots and connectors have a good professional feel. The device has enough weight and good rubberised feet so it feel solid on the table with all the cables plugged in - no movement. In all, this is perfect for a home recording setup, podcasting and with 6 channels this can work for live gigs too. ## Features - Amplify your voice with the Yamaha AG mixing console for musicians, podcasters and gamers who want to share their craft with friends in their living room or with fans across the globe - Featuring 1-Touch DSP tech, for professional sound with a single touch to easily control the Comp/EQ to hone your tone, Effect for ambient reverb, and AMP SIM for a classic warm tube amp sound - Enjoy flexible connectivity with phantom-powered and Hi-Z switchable inputs so you can connect a variety of mics, instruments and external audio players for convenient audio control - High-resolution sound reproduces every subtlety of your performance and records with fidelity and accurate imaging for music production, mixing and broadcasting - Items delivered: 1 x AG06 Mixing Console, 6 channel compact mixing board with USB capabilities, compatible with PCs and laptop computers, for streaming, recording and mixing podcasts and music ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00ST0FK12 | | Audio Input | XLR (mic), 1/4 (line), AUX | | Best Sellers Rank | 82,871 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 197 in Live Mixers | | Brand | Yamaha | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Connectivity technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,038 Reviews | | Frequency | 192000 Hz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04957812580137 | | Item Weight | 1000 Grams | | Item weight | 1000 Grams | | Manufacturer | yamaha | | Manufacturer Part Number | FBA_CAG06 | | Model Number | CAG06 | | Number of Channels | 6 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of channels | 6 | | Output Connector Type | 1/4 inch TRS (balanced), 1/8 inch TRS (for headphones) | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Power source | Corded Electric | | UPC | 613815622512 700315917887 | | Voltage | 48 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Yamaha - **Number of channels:** 6 - **Item weight:** 1000 Grams - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Power source:** Corded Electric ## Images ![Yamaha AG06 - Studio mixer with USB capabilities for audio, streaming and recording, in white - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51DpAuwYUoL.jpg) ![Yamaha AG06 - Studio mixer with USB capabilities for audio, streaming and recording, in white - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21gVV41bb6S.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can you use this with a usb dac in between laptop and mixer?** A: Hi Ka, Thank you for the question. We've designed the AG06 to connect directly to a Mac, iPad or to a Windows PC - it incorporates our own high quality converters and no additional DACs would be needed. If wanted, you could use the AG06 purely as an analogue mixer (a separate power supply would be required) in conjunction with an external USB DAC. However, you might find our general-purpose MG Series and MGP Series analogue mixers more flexible. Best wishes, Yamaha Music **Q: Can this be used to record desktop audio and vocal to separate channels while monitoring both with headphones?** A: You can, yes. Of course, the audio track separations depend on your recording setup! The device itself will allow you to adjust monitoring volume levels, so you can mix them in your head, but the actual tracks' volume and their separation depend, again, on the recording and editing of your stuff. ;D **Q: Dumb question but can this drive a sennheiser hd 650 or a beyerdynamic dt 990 pro or would i need an amp?** A: It has a built in headphone amp I use it with my sennheisers **Q: Is it possible to have a mike input and two guitar inputs recording at the same time with this? Also, when recording can I single out these inputs?** A: Thank you for the question. We've designed the AG03 to be a great mixer for vlogging, podcasting and track-by-track music production. But it's not intended for multiple multi-channel recording and dedicated audio interface may be the better choice... Physically, the AG03 has one microphone pre-amp, one Hi-Z connection for guitar and a stereo connection for keyboards (and other line-level audio sources). However, the guitar and keyboard inputs share a mixer channel - you can't use both at once (so there's a switch to choose between them). Also, be aware that the AG03 sends only a stereo feed (2 channels) to Cubasis, Cubase and other DAWs over the USB connection. This can either be a stereo mix of all your inputs or just the microphone and guitar inputs separately. So, potentially, by having two guitars connected firstly to external pre-amps and then to the left and right keyboard inputs, you could theoretically record a microphone and two guitars at the same time. However, the channels wouldn't arrive separately in your DAW which will make post-recording mixing virtually impossible. For recording with multiple instruments and microphones, we'd instead recommend Steinberg's UR Series of dedicated audio interfaces. The Steinberg UR44 includes 6 independent input channels which are kept separate over the USB connection to your DAW. The first 4 inputs also feature our highly-rated D-PRE pre-amps - so you can get professional sound quality easily. The first two of the UR44's pre-amps can either be used for microphones or guitars; the second two pre-amps can either be used for microphones or line-level instruments (eg keyboards). The final two are designed for line-level sources (eg keyboards) only. Unlike the AG03, the UR44 isn't a mixer and always requires a DAW (whereas the AG03 can just be used as a mixer if wanted). We hope this helps; please feel free to contact us directly if you'd like any information or have any questions.

It was very easy to set up, until I came to installing the Cubase software. It`s a nightmare! I eventually uninstalled it and won`t be using it. So, hence only 4 stars all around because the `free` software let it down.
