Yamaha EMX212S Brochure & Specs - page 4
For larger venues and audiences, or if you plan to use it for outdoor
sound, the EMX512SC with a pair of whopping 500-watt amplifiers to
ensure that your music or message comes across with full impact.
If you need a little more power –300 watts +300 watts – and the added
advantage of one-knob compression on mono channels, the EMX312SC
may be the model you need.
The lowest-powered model in the series offers a pair of 220-watt
amplifiers per channel that should be more than sufficient for small-to-
medium size venues.

Features For Superior Sound and Convenience
Great Yamaha Sound
Yamaha is a leader in the field of professional live sound for a very good reason: we deliver the
sound and performance that the pros demand. The EMX-series powered mixers are no exception.
They’re built at the same standards of sonic performance and rugged reliability that makes
Yamaha the first choice for live sound applications from schools to stadiums around the globe.
One-knob Compression on Mono Channels
(EMX512SC & EMX312SC)
All four monaural mic/line channels on the EMX512SC and EMX312SC feature built-
in compressors that can help to bring vocals to the front of the mix, give your guitars
extra smoothness and presence, deliver a more punchy bass sound, and generally
refine your mixes in a multitude of ways. These one-knob compressors are simple to
use, too. There’s no need to juggle multiple attack, threshold, makeup gain, and
other controls – just set the COMP control to the amount of compression you need.
Feedback Channel Locating (FCL) System
FCL System indicator LEDs at the top of each channel light if the corresponding
channel goes into feedback, so you won’t have to fumble around searching for the
channel that needs adjustment.
12 Inputs
All three mixers in this series offer a total of 12 input channels – four for monaural microphone (incl.
Phantom Power) or line input, plus four pairs that can function either as monaural microphone inputs or
stereo line inputs – providing you with a versatile mix of input capabilities for a wide range of
applications. If you need only microphone inputs you can use up to eight mic channels. Or if, for
example, you want to play recorded background music during breaks (that’s one stereo channel), and
you have a keyboard player with a stereo-output keyboard (that’s one more stereo channel), you still have
six mic/line inputs. If you use all four stereo pairs to handle stereo line sources you have four channels
available for mono mic or line input. This is a very versatile system that can adapt to your needs.
High Power For Main and Monitor Speakers
These powered mixers certainly don’t skimp on power. From the EMX212S with
200 watts per channel to the EMX512SC with a solid 500 watts per channel,
there’s a power configuration to suit any application and venue. All models also
feature a power mode switch that lets you use the two power channels as a
stereo amplifier, or you can use one of the channels for the main speaker(s) and
the other to drive monitors with a separate monitor mix set up via the channel
MONITOR controls.
SPX Digital Effects
The EMX212S, EMX312SC, and EMX512SC all feature a selection of 16 top-quality Yamaha SPX
effects – including reverb, echo, chorus, flanger, phaser, and even distortion – that can add the
final touch to your live presentation. Yamaha SPX digital effects are widely recognized as being
some of the finest available, and the effects provided in the EMX mixers live up to that reputation.
Built-in Graphic EQ
Graphic equalizers are provided for both the main and monitor channels, so you can effectively
control feedback or tailor the sound to the match the room and program material.
Stand-by Mode
When you're done with a set, simply engage the stand-by mode to mute all mono channels while
leaving the 2-track inputs active for background music playback while you're taking your break.
Yamaha Speaker Processing
Yamaha Club-series speakers are fine performers in their
own right, but with Yamaha Speaker Processing you get
extra-smooth highs and enhanced low-frequency output.
Durable, Lightweight Design
The EMX powered mixers offer the ideal combination of
outstanding sound performance and easy handling.
They’re lightweight — only 8 kilograms (17.6 lbs.) — and
feature conveniently located handles for maximum carrying
comfort. They’re also built tough to withstand the rigors of
use on the road.
Angled Cabinet
for Easy Access
This thoughtful feature makes the control
panel easy to see and access when the unit is
placed on the floor.
Experienced musicians, performers, speakers, and club operators know the importance of a
high-quality sound system with the right features and performance to deliver their sound.
Where portability and convenience are important criteria, a system based on a high-
performance Yamaha EMX-series powered mixer is definitely the way to go. In one
integrated, portable unit you have a mixer to combine and balance your microphone,
instrument, and line sources, effects to refine and polish your sound, and power to
drive the main speakers and even monitor speakers as well. But that’s nowhere
near the whole story – Yamaha EMX-series Powered Mixers offer a range of
features that let you mix, process, and deliver your sound with maximum quality
and creative control … and, of course, that unrivalled Yamaha sound.
