Yamaha Audiogram6 Digital Mixer/interface
What we think:
The AUDIOGRAM Series has been carefully designed to make setting up your
computer-based recording environment an absolute breeze. Coming as a complete
kit, the AUDIOGRAM6 bundles together a hardware interface that adds audio inputs
and outputs to your computer, software for recording and producing music, and a
USB cable for connecting the audio interface.
As such, either package will instantly turn your computer into a powerful yet
intuitive tool for recording and editing audio from virtually any microphone or
audio input device. What's more, setup is as easy as installing the bundled
music-production application, CUBASE AI, on your computer and connecting the
audio interface using the USB cable provided! You're then ready to connect
instruments, microphones, CD players, MP3 players, and even old record or tape
players for recording straight into CUBASE AI.
Simple yet intuitive design.
Set the Input and Output Levels and You're Ready To Go!
Even if you're a newcomer to the world of audio recording, setting up your own
computer based studio couldn't be easier with AUDIOGRAM. The audio interface has
been designed with ease-of-use as a prime requirement, and you only need to set
the input sensitivity and output volume before you can start recording. Using
the GAIN knobs, simply adjust the sensitivity of the input channel to a level at
which its PEAK lamp does not come on. In the same way, you set the master output
volume using the MASTER knob, making sure that the left and right PEAK lamps do
not light.
Mic Preamps for High-Quality Recordings
The AUDIOGRAM6 comes complete with high-quality microphone preamps on its two
mono input channels, one of which can even supply 48-V phantom power to
accommodate condenser microphones. Using this type of microphone, you can record
narration and spoken word for podcasts, make studio-quality recordings of
acoustic guitars, and much more.
Setting Compression Has Never Been Easier
Unlike normal compressors, which can be very difficult to adjust, the 1-knob
compressors on the AUDIOGRAM6 are super simple. As the name suggests, you can
adjust compression for smoother and more balanced recordings using just a single
knob. Particularly when recording acoustic guitar, electric bass, and vocals,
this intuitive feature will make your recordings much more stable and
professional sounding.
One-Touch Switching Between Mono and Stereo Inputs
Using the PAN button, you can instantly turn the two mono input channels on your
AUDIOGRAM6 into a fully-panned stereo channel and vice versa. For example, you
can use this Stereo Coupling function when recording live performances, outdoor
audio material, and many other stereo sources with a pair of dynamic
microphones. In fact, Stereo Coupling also allows your interface to function
beautifully as a simple mixer with three stereo input channels!
Easy Balancing Of Audio Inputs and Playback
Using the AUDIOGRAM6 interface's Monitor Mix function, you can conveniently
balance the volume of audio input from external sources and the volume of audio
recorded on the USB-connected computer. Because the volume of audio playback
from the computer can be adjusted using the DAW knob while the overall volume
for the headphones or stereo output can be set using the MASTER knob, it is easy
to achieve the perfect balance between external audio devices and tracks already
recorded.
