Yamaha AG03 MK2 3-Channel Mixer with USB Interface Overview
The AG03 Mk2 maintains a sleek design. Inputs and outputs are grouped across the top, making sure your controls are free from clutter. A single multi-purpose jack supports XLR-type and phone (balanced or unbalanced) inputs, while a phone plug — featuring a dedicated line switch — allows you to toggle between guitar and line-level inputs. A third channel, with dedicated left- and right channel-inputs, gives you an option to run the left channel for monaural instruments. Furthermore, this mixer natively supports iOS to incorporate apps such as Zoom, Skype, Teams, and FaceTime — all from your device.
Precision control with onboard DSP FX
Keeping your levels dialed in is paramount to a good stream, and the AG03 Mk2 is big on options. You’re armed with LEDs for visual feedback, monitoring for peaks, channel muting, and built-in +48-volt phantom power, which is ideal for use with condenser mics. Reverb, mute, and comp/EQ functions comprise the onboard DSP effects alongside a dedicated 60mm fader for your microphone, in addition to channel controls and gain adjustment. The 3-way selector further democratizes your stream control, with options for dry channel 1–2, input mix, and loopback — the latter enabling the simultaneous incorporation of music or background audio from your laptop or iOS device, with your live inputs.
Offline versatility
Due to the AG03 Mk2’s class compliance connectivity, iOS incorporation opens up numerous options for getting even more out of your mixer. This includes compatibility with Cubasis LE, a multi-touch sequencer app and pared-down version of the Cubase DAW. Additionally, the AG DSP Controller app provides more refined control of the onboard options, with a “1-touch” easy mode and an expert mode. Plus, the AG03 Mk2 comes with the Cubase AI DAW, allowing for a powerful, smooth avenue for producing high-quality recordings.
