Yamaha EMX66M Owner's Manual - Page 7

5 Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha EMX66M Powered Mixer. In order to take full advantage of the EMX66M and enjoy long and trouble-free performance, please read this owner's manual carefully, and keep it in a safe place for future reference. Features • The EMX66M provides six input channels compatible with mic/line signals, including highimpedance input suitable for an electric-acoustic guitar. The EMX66M has ample power, with a maximum output of 300 W+300 W (600 W with bridge connection), and is suitable for a wide range of applications from installed systems to small-scale PA systems. • A two-channel power amp is built-in. The input signals for the two channels can be selected as MAIN+MAIN, MAIN+MONITOR, or MAIN (bridge connection). • Independent 7-band graphic EQ is provided for both the MONITOR section and the MAIN section. This allows the volume and frequency response to be adjusted separately for the main speakers and monitor speakers. • The power amp section has a limiter circuit to prevent sound distortion and protect the speakers. • A digital effect with eight selectable effect types is built-in. A variety of effects can be applied to add reverberation or ambiance to vocals or instrumental sounds. • The EMX66M has implemented "EEEngine", Yamaha's epochal amp drive technology to create an unrivaled high-efficiency drive. The EEEngine's energy-saver/low-heat-generation design has reduced power consumption to 50% or less, and reduced heat generation to 35% or less (in field applications, compared to Yamaha's previous models), and has lead to a reduction in energy cost and to less-restrictive installation requirements related to heat generation.
