CL StageMix V3.0 User Guide
Welcome:
Thank you for downloading the “CL StageMix” iPad app for the Yamaha CL series
digital mixing consoles.
The latest firmware version for CL series can be downloaded from
www.yamahaproaudio.com
StageMix is an application for the Apple iPad that provides remote control of Yamaha
CL series digital mixing consoles functions via a simple, intuitive graphical interface
from anywhere within wireless range.
The software has been specifically designed to
allow engineers to adjust monitor mixes from the performers’ positions on stage,
directly controlling mix parameters via the iPad rather than having to rely on verbal
directions to a second engineer.
The result is better mixes in less time; a huge
advantage during high-pressure pre-show setup.
Although StageMix is focused on
the requirements for adjusting monitor mixes on stage, its range of features is
continually expanding, allowing it to be used for a wider variety of remote control
