Yamaha

Once again, Yamaha have done the Japanese thing and made an already good product even smaller and more affordable with the addition of a new digital desk, the LS9, aimed squarely at the small format analogue mixer market. In two variants, 16 or 32 channels, the LS9 uses many of the usual recall features from the highly successful M7CL launched at PLASA last year.

An ever-strengthening range of amplifiers sees the addition of the TN amplifiers, a range from 1900W to 2500W output (stereo at 2 ohms) and using Yamaha's high-efficiency, patented 'EEEngine'.

By licensing the Ethernet-based standard (announced worldwide from the PLASA show) Yamaha has made EtherSound networking technology part of its inherent strength, making the integration of Yamaha digital consoles into audio networks even easier. Plus, three new EtherSound-enabled DME Satellite models were added to the recently-launched Digital Mixing Engine Satellite series.
