How can we compensate for the lack of compressors and AUX inputs? We have one but we are now considering the Yamaha MG166CXUSB or MG20XU. thanks.

I recommend you use yamaha since you have more channel outputs and sharpness sound is very good. but let me tell you something peavy PV20 USB mixer works great is amazing in every way and is cheaper

Hi There.....I have a Yamaha 200 amp connected to this unit, running 4 seperate set of speakers. Its been in use for a few years with no problems. I don't crank my music very high and listen to easy music. Hope it helps!

Experience says these 'cheaper' line pedals don't sound paired with anything other than guitar.Compression can be controlled with MIDI under live situations or added during recording mix.Also you don't have the control with guitar effect pedals as you would with the proper keyboard sustain pedal.Check keyboards that accept sustainer foot pedals; Sweetwater sells the pedals for $15.You can find them cheaper here on Amazon thru M-Audio for around $10.Keep looking and read up on it.

I dont see one either, but you can run it from a board or use effects for reverb. so far I've just been using mine as a high powered stereo but hope to record in the future. hope that helps.

Mr Mislinski I regret to inform you that I never got that far to determine due to the fact that a primary feature / function was not operative which necessitated repackaging and returning. If it's any consilation, most if not all audio systems have a auxiliary input jack. Happy listening.

the clean channel sounds really good. I was happy with the distortion channel once I got the knack of dialing tones in. The amp is pretty loud alone. If you are using processor like Digitech or whatever, it really increases the volume. I no longer use this amp, it was just too loud for my needs, so I downsized to a 15 watt Marshall MG15CFX. I'll get around to reviewing that one of these days.

I can't say for sure which mixer is better but I have had excellent results from the Yamaha MG16XU. It has worked flawlessly and we have even had some gigs where it rained and the board got wet and the table it was on blown over. I just wiped it down, let it dry out, and it is back in business. I think the Yamaha rocks!

There's no Phono input, so that implies you need a separate pre-amp, though who knows, maybe it does have sensitive enough input.The manual is almost impossible to comprehend, and unit's routing is really confusing, keep that in mind.

Get a seperate amp. If my stock one was a 2/10, after speakers and a head unit id rate it a 4/10. But the amp jumped it to 8.5/10. AMP is a HUGE difference

Sorry, can't help you. But having difficulties doesn't surprise me. First the iPod connection stop working, then all the hdmi connections wouldn't work, and then 1 speaker started to cut out, and finally the amp started turning off after 5 minutes. All of this happened in 18 months. Got a $200 5.1 Yamaha now. Works great and sounds better than the Pioneer! Good luck.

this unit isn't set up for that you would need the 7.1 setup mentioned in the other posts. i can speak for the quality of sound however and i would reccomend yamaha they sell a very nice and affordable 7.1 unit on amazon i believe for around $350 good luck

Haven't used a Yamaha in a long time. In general I think Mackies are priced higher with fewer features but I won't buy anything else. Mackie makes a great and reliable product, it's hard to go wrong unless you need more features for the dollar.

You don't "need" to buy an amp but I'd highly reccomend it for the CS series. I ran them without an amp for awhile and you just never get a good crisp sound out of them until they're ran to their potential.

If you can, I still haven't figured it out, I also have a Yamaha psr s650, what I do is play them together connected to the PA system with the same tempo and it is awesome. I am still working on playing another keyboard into my mox6. I learn something new everyday and loving every minute of it.

I would contact the manufacturer. They have amazing customer service. I did some quick research and found compatibility issues with certain configurations. Changing the dsp setting to 32 bit helped solve some issues with asio. From my personal edxperience a dedicated digital converter such as this far outperforms any sound card. Email the manufacturer. If you are serious about the quality of your music this is for you. Seriously brought my system to life.
