About the Yamaha MW10 10-Channel USB Mixer

Getting the music that's in your head out into the real world doesn't have to be difficult. In fact, with Yamaha's new MW10 and MW12 USB Mixing Studio, making great music is easier than ever before. Combined with the powerful Cubase LE audio/MIDI sequencing software, the MW Mixer provides a comprehensive tabletop studio setup for the solo recording musician and for the travelling producer/arranger.

Yamaha MW10 10-Channel USB Mixer Reviews

Feature:
Includes everything you would need. If only it didn't have the fatal flaw I mentioned above.

Quality:
It feels well-built; it's Yamaha. Could probably go through a small war without breaking.

Value:
It's not a good value if it doesn't perform its duty as advertised.

Desirability:
I would want it if they fixed the USB output volume. I'm not running it through a hub or anything like that; it's running on a well-powered desktop that has never had problems with any other interface before. It's sad that no good budget USB mixer appears to exist, with the Alesis suffering from the Hum of Death.

Sound:
It sounds good for an inexpensive mixer. Good preamps and good sound quality. But the USB output is far too quiet, even after following the steps in the manual to overcome said problem. The gain required after recording to bring the sound up to a decent level is enough to cause distortion/aliasing in the original sound. I can't recommend this mixer based on this reason; I'll be returning mine shortly.

Ease of Use:
Easy enough for anyone who's ever used a mixer before. Even if you haven't, the controls are clearly labeled and the instruction manual is somewhat helpful.

Support:
The online support is shaky at best; information about the drivers is nearly non-existent.

Overall:
I'm returning it because it doesn't do what it's advertised to do adequately. That should say something.
