It has been 40 years since the release of Yamaha's first professional analog mixing console in 1972, the PM200. This year also marks the 25th anniversary of the landmark release of their first ever digital mixer, the DMP7. It is no mere coincidence that, during this momentous occasion, they are introducing a ground-breaking new product that represents a new paradigm for compact professional mixing consoles: the MGP Series. Drawing from decades of experience crafting innovative, premium analog gear, they originally developed their new discrete Class-A microphone preamps for professional use in their high-end recording equipment. Utilizing an inverted Darlington circuit design, these newly-refined D-PRE mic preamps deliver a fat, rich, smooth tone that gives the MGP Series a significant advantage over any other mixer in its class.

With their proprietary X-pressive EQ Yamaha managed to capture ultimate analog authenticity by unlocking the mysterious secret behind the expressive sound shaping capabilities of sought-after classic EQ modules. At the heart of the MGP's compact configuration, they've taken an innovative new approach to the utilization of digital technology in an analog mixer; adding high-resolution effects, iPod/iPhone integration and the superb functionality of the new Stereo Hybrid Channel to the warmth and musicality of premium analog sound. The MGP Series represents the ultimate balance of the converging technologies that are the heart and soul of Yamaha's extraordinary achievements in professional audio.
