INPUT Jack (monaural)
These monaural input jacks are used to connect micro-
phones or musical instruments. Each input channel fea-
tures two types of jacks (INPUT A and INPUT B).
INPUT A Jack
These are balanced XLR-3-31 type input jacks (1:
Ground; 2: Hot; 3: Cold).
INPUT B Jack
These are TRS phone-jack type balanced inputs. (T:
Hot; R; Cold; S: Ground)
You can connect either balanced or unbalanced phone
plugs to these jacks.
NOTE
· Only one type of jack can be used at a time on a single
channel.
2
INSERT Jack
These jacks are located between the compressor and
equalizer of the corresponding monaural input channel.
The INSERT jacks are ideal for connecting devices such
as graphic equalizers or noise filters into the corre-
sponding channels. The INSERT jacks are TRS (tip,
ring, sleeve) phone jacks that carry both the send and
return signal (tip = send/out; ring = return/in; sleeve =
ground).
NOTE
· Patching external devices via an INSERT jack requires a
special insert cable such as illustrated below (insert
cable sold separately).
3
DIRECT OUT Jack
These are impedance balanced (page 19) phone-jack
type outputs. They output the signal that has passed
through the compressor.
NOTE
· If necessary, the signal that is output from the DIRECT
OUT jack can be changed to the signal immediately
before the channel fader (pre-fader) or the signal after
the channel fader (post-fader) by changing an internal
jumper. A fee will be charged for this modification. For
details, contact to your Yamaha dealer listed at the end of
this manual.
4
INPUT Jacks (stereo)
These are stereo input jacks that connect line-level
instruments, such as a synthesizer. Each input channel
features two types of jacks (INPUT A and INPUT B).
INPUT A Jacks
These are unbalanced phone-jack stereo line inputs.
INPUT B Jacks
These are unbalanced stereo RCA pin-jack line inputs.
NOTE
· Only one type of jack can be used at a time on a single
channel.

+48V Switch/Indicator
This switch toggles phantom power on and off for a
monaural channel. When the switch is turned on, the
+48V indicator will light, and DC +48V phantom power
will be supplied to Pin 2 and 3 of the corresponding
XLR-type INPUT A jacks. Turn this switch on when using
a phantom-powered condenser microphone.

26 dB (PAD) Switch
When this switch is turned on, the input signal from the
INPUT jack of the monaural channel is attenuated by 26
dB. Turn the switch off ( ) if you’ve connected a
microphone or other device with a low input level to the
channel. Turn it on ( ) if you’ve connected a line-level
device.
7
GAIN Control
This adjusts the sensitivity of the input signal from the
INPUT jack. Monaural channels have a 26 dB switch
(
6
) that lets you change the range of this control. The
adjustable sensitivity range is as follows.
Monaural channel
Stereo channel
-34dB to +10dB
8
(Phase) Switch
Tur ning this switch on will invert the phase of the input
signal. Turn this switch on if you need to mix a phase-
reversed signal.
NOTE
· If you try to mix a phase-reversed signal, the signals will
interfere with each other, resulting in degraded sound
quality.
9
(High Pass Filter) Switch
This switch toggles the HPF on or off.
Tur ning this switch ON will apply a high-pass filter that
attenuates the signal below 80 Hz by a slope of 12 dB/

Monaural channels Stereo channels
Be sure to leave this switch off if you do not need
phantom power.
•When turning phantom power on, be sure that only a
condenser microphone is connected to the INPUT A
jack of the monaural channel. Other devices may be
damaged if connected to phantom power. This precau-
tion does not apply to balanced dynamic microphones,
however, as these will not be affected by phantom
power.
•To avoid damage to speakers, be sure to turn off
amplifiers (or powered speakers) before turning this
switch on or off. It’s also a good idea to turn the mixer’s
output controls - STEREO OUT master fader and
GROUP OUT faders - all the way down. If you omit this
precaution, you may damage your hearing or your
equipment.

COMP Control/Indicator
Adjusts the amount of compression applied to the chan-
nel. As the COMP knob is turned to the right the com-
pression ratio increases while the output gain is
automatically adjusted accordingly. The result is
smoother, more even dynamics because louder signals
are attenuated while the overall level is boosted. The
COMP indicator will light when the compressor oper-
ates.
NOTE
·Avoid setting the compression too high, as the higher
average output level that results may lead to feedback.
A EQ (Equalizer): HIGH, HI-MID, LO-MID, LOW
This is a four-band equalizer, providing adjustments for
four frequency bands (HIGH, HI-MID, LO-MID, LOW).
Setting the gain control to the “” position produces a
flat response in the corresponding band. Turning the
gain control to the right boosts the corresponding fre-
quency band, while turning to the left attenuates the
band. The HI-MID and LO-MID bands of monaural
channels provide a frequency control that lets you
adjust the center frequency.
The following table shows the EQ type, frequency, and
maximum cut/boost for each of the bands.
Monaural channel
Stereo channel
B EQ ON Switch
Switches the equalizer on or off.
C AUX Controls (1–8)
These adjust the level of the signals sent from the input
channel to AUX buses 1–8. These knobs should gener-
ally be set close to the “” (nominal) position. The sig-
nal adjusted by these controls is determined by the PRE
switch (D).
D PRE Switches
For each two buses, these switches select whether the
signal sent to the AUX buses will be taken after the
equalizer and before the channel fader (pre-fader), or
after the channel fader (post-fader). If this switch is ON,
the pre-fader signal is sent to the AUX bus, and will not
be affected by the channel fader.
NOTE
· If necessary, the pre-fader signal sent to the AUX buses
can be changed to the signal before the equalizer by
changing an internal jumper. A fee will be charged for
this modification. In this case, the signal will be sent to
the AUX buses even if the input channel’s ON switch is
turned off. For details, contact to your Yamaha dealer
listed at the end of this manual.
E PAN Control
This control determines the stereo positioning of the
monaural channel signal on the buses.
Rotate the knob clockwise to pan the signal to the odd
channels of the GROUP buses and the ST L bus, and
counter-clockwise to pan the signal to the even chan-
nels of the GROUP buses and the ST R bus.
F BAL Control
Adjusts the left and right volume balance of stereo
channels. The signal input to the INPUT L jack will be
sent to the odd channels of the GROUP buses or to the
ST L bus, and the signal input to the INPUT R jack will
be sent to the even channels of the GROUP buses or to
the ST R bus.
G ON Switch/Indicator
When this switch is on, that channel will be enabled and
the indicator will light.
NOTE
· Even if the ON switch is off, you can turn on the PFL
switch (K) and monitor the signal before the channel
fader via the MONITOR OUT jacks and the PHONES
jack.
H Input Meter
Three LEDs indicate the input channel signal level after
the equalizer. The “-20” LED will light if the input signal
level reaches -20 dB, and the “0” LED will light at nomi-
nal level. The PEAK LED will light red when the input sig-
nal reaches 3 dB before clipping.
I Bus Assign Switches
These switches determine the bus(es) to which each
channel’s signal is sent. Turning a switch on will output
the signal to the corresponding bus.
1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 switches: Assign the channel’s
signal to the GROUP 1/2–7/8 buses.
ST switch: Assigns the channel’s signal to the Stereo
L and R buses.
MONO switch: Assigns the channel’s signal to the
MONO bus.
NOTE
· If you want the signal to be output to the corresponding
bus(es), turn on the channel ON switch (G).
J MUTE Switches (1–4)
These assign the channel’s mute on/off to switches 1–4.
If you turn on the MUTE master switches (1–4)
(page 15) located in the MUTE MASTER section, the
input channels whose corresponding MUTE switch is on
will be muted.
NOTE
·When a channel is muted, the ON indicator (G) will go
dark.
· Even if a channel is muted, you can turn on the PFL
switch (K) and monitor the signal before the channel
fader via the MONITOR OUT jacks and the PHONES
jack.

AUX RETURN Jacks
These are unbalanced phone-jack type line inputs. Sig-
nals input from these jacks can be sent to the GROUP 1/
2–7/8, ST L/R, MONO, and AUX 1–4 buses. To the
MONO and AUX 1–4 buses, a mix of the L/MONO and R
signal is sent. These jacks are typically used to receive
the signal returned from an external effect device
(reverb, delay, etc.).
NOTE
· These jacks can also be used as auxiliary stereo inputs.
· If you connect to the L/MONO jack only, the mixer will
recognize the signal as monaural and will send the identi-
cal signal to both the L/MONO and R jacks.
2 AUX Controls (1–4)
These adjust the level at which the signals from the AUX
RETURN jacks are sent (with L and R mixed) to the AUX
1–4 buses.
The “” position of the knob is nominal level (0 dB).
3 Bus Assign Switches
These switches determine the bus(es) to which the sig-
nal is received from the AUX RETURN jacks.
1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 switches: Send the signal to the
GROUP 1/2–7/8 buses.
ST switch: Sends the signal to the ST L/R bus.
MONO switch: Sends the signal to the MONO bus.
4 RETURN Control
Adjusts the level of the signal sent from the AUX
RETURN jacks to the GROUP 1/2–7/8, ST L/R, or MONO
buses.
The “” position of the knob is nominal level (0 dB).

Troubleshooting
Power doesn’t come on.
Is the dedicated PW8 power supply properly plugged into
an appropriate AC power outlet?
Is the dedicated PW8 power supply properly connected
using the included power supply cable?
The PW8 itself will not power-on unless it is correctly con-
nected via the included power cable.
If the above checks do not identify the problem, call
Yamaha for service.
The sound of the bass drum will not move forward in
the mix.
Could you be mixing a phase-reversed signal?
Try turning on the switch to reverse the phase. If you
are capturing the sound using multiple mics, phase rever-
sal may be causing cancellation.
How can I send the pre-EQ signal to an AUX bus for
monitoring?
You can send the pre-EQ signal to an AUX bus by
changing an internal jumper setting. Turn the AUX PRE
switch on (pre-fader). In this case, the signal will be sent
to the AUX bus even if the input channel’s ON switch is
off.
How can I monitor the signal of a GROUP bus before I
send it to the ST L/R bus?
With the GROUP section ON switch turned off, turning the
GROUP section AFL switch on will let you monitor the AFL
signal of the GROUP bus without sending it to the ST L/R
(and MONO) bus.
How can I send a compressed signal to the ST L/R
bus while sending the uncompressed signal to
DIRECT OUT jacks for recording?
If you connect a compressor (external device) to the
INSERT jacks and apply compression to the signal being
sent to the ST L/R bus, the signal before the compressor
will be sent to the DIRECT OUT jacks. In this case, turn off
the IM8’s COMP control.
How can I send the TALKBACK signal only to the
intercom?
In the TALKBACK section, turn on only MATRIX 1-2 (or
MATRIX 3-4) to send the output of MATRIX 1-2 (or
MATRIX 3-4) to the intercom.
How can I play background music from a portable
audio player?
•A standard mini-phone type 2TR IN jack is provided on
the front panel, allowing you to connect your portable
audio player via a mini-plug cable.
How can I assign the MC to the MONO bus and also
record it?
Assign the MC’s input channel to the MONO bus, and use
the REC OUT section bus assign switch to select the
MONO bus.
