. INTRODUCTION
The Yamaha MC1608M/2408M Monitor Mixing Consoles are
versatile, portable, and reliable. They aré designed to provide
flexible, efficient stage monitoring for performing musicians.
The ability to be able to hear his own performance blended
with an individually balanced mix of his fellow musicians
gives a performer the opportunity to concentrate on his art
totally, and these units are created to give exactly this
engineer, with their fully professional, compatibility, uncom-'
promising electronic performance, and highly versatile
control capabilities.
The mixing console you now own offers eight different
monitor mixes, via eight busses controlled by compact rotary
controls. Two auxiliary channels may be used for a variety of
purposes — patching in echo or signal processing units, feed-
ing a tape deck in order to record a show, two additional
outputs, or providing monitor mixes for the operator, stage
manager, etc.
Insert patch points on all input channels and out busses
means that you can, for example, compress an individual
vocalist, or use a graphic EQ on each mix, to get maximum
levels without feedback. Judicious equalizing with the three
band EQ and high-pass filter will also greatly assist in elimi-
nating unwanted noise, harmonics, wind noise, or micro-
phone popping. |

ciently in many different mixing situations. No matter how
