The Yamaha EMX860ST has all the features you need to make performing simple with the least amount of hassle. PLENTY OF INPUTS. With 8 channels that accept either XLR or 1/4 inputs, almost any microphone or other input can be accommodated. Inputs 7 and 8 allow connection of stereo devices like keyboards or drum machines without sacrificing the other inputs. There is also a set of tape inputs that accept RCA plugs to accept a CD player or cassette deck. DIGITAL REVERB. The EMX860ST has a high quality DSP processor built inside. This device gives the user a range of effect types that are easily adjusted. This effect can be returned to the stereo mix as well as the monitor output. This way, the performer can hear the effect as well. BUILT IN GRAPHIC EQUALIZERS. both the main (stereo) outputs and the monitor output have 7-band graphic eqs. This allows the user to shape the sound of the main speakers as well as help to control feedback in the monitors. PLENTY OF POWER. Inside is a total of 600 watts of audio power! The EMX860ST has three separate 200 watt amplifiers, two for the main speakers, and one for use with the monitors. All three of these amplifiers have Yamahas patented EEEngine technology. This allows lighter weight and, equally important, cooler operation. The amplifiers are protected from damage by built-in limiters that will also protect the connected speakers. There is also a bridge mode, which allows the user to take advantage of both main amplifiers, 400 watts of power, and send it to one speaker system.
Rugged construction throughout to assure years of trouble-free service.

features and technology
1. Lo-Z input jack allows direct connection of microphones with pro-style XLR connectors. 2. Hi-Z input jack enables the direct connection of high level sources (items that have internal preamplification) like keyboards, drum machines, CD players, etc. 3. Pad switch decreases the input sensitivity for extra loud sources (i.e. screaming singers, shouting speakers or, simply, high-output microphones). 4. Level control manages the inputs volume. 5. Pan control adjusts the relative position of the input in the stereo field. 6. Effect level control adjusts the amount of signal sent to the effects section of the mixer. 7. Monitor level controls the volume sent to the monitor section. 8. Channel EQ section includes controls that adjust the equalization of each of the separate inputs. They allow you to tailor the sound of each input separately, enabling you to bring out sounds from each of the inputs that might not be easily heard in the overall mix. 9. Digital effect provides a high quality DSP effect thats applied to the main output and is available for the monitor output as well. 10. Effect out adjusts the amount of signal sent to the internal (or external) effect device. 11. Monitor graphic EQ tailors the overall sound to the monitor output and helps to reduce the chance for feedback. 12. Phantom power switch activates phantom power in the Lo-Z inputs. Phantom power is used for condenser microphones, which have small internal circuits that require power in order to produce sound. 13. Monitor master level adjusts the output of the monitor section. An LED meter indicates this level. 14. Monitor effect return controls the amount of effect that is sent to the monitors. This useful control allows the performer(s) to enjoy the effect as well as the audience. 15. Main graphic EQ allows you to tailor the sound of both left and right main (audience) outputs. 24. 16. Limiter LEDs indicate when the internal amplifiers are being overworked. This warning signal helps avoid damaging the amplifiers or your speakers. 17. Amplifier routing switch allows you to bridge both the left and right power amplifiers together to provide 400 Watts out to a single speaker. 18. Main master level adjusts the output to the main speakers. An LED meter indicates the level. 19. Tape In control adjusts the level of the signal connected to the Tape In jacks (22) thats sent out the main stereo outputs. 20. Aux In controls the level of the signal coming into the Aux In jacks (23). 21. Effect Return adjusts the amount of effect that is sent to the main outputs. 22. Monitor output jack connects additional amplifier(s) and monitor speakers when you need to. 23. Main outputs (L&R) permit you to hook the EMX860ST into an existing sound system. They also let you use the EMX860ST as a submixer for a larger system. This way, youll never outgrow the EMX860ST! 30. 31. 32. 31. 33. 24. REC out jacks connect the EMX860ST to a cassette deck or other recorder. The output level of these jacks is optimized for recording applications. 25. Tape in jacks accept a tape player or CD player output and routes it directly to the main stereo outputs. This feature allows you to keep all 8 normal inputs available for other sources. 26. Aux in jacks allow the output of another mixer into the EMX860ST. (i.e. a keyboard player or drummer with their own submixer) again leaving the other 8 inputs open for other inputs. 27. Foot SW jack allows the use of a footswitch to mute the effect (this is 31. Left and right output jacks to connect the main speakers. 32. L+R Bridge output jack allows hookup of BOTH main amplifiers (400W) to one speaker. 33. Small, quiet fan to cool 600 watts of total power! helpful when you need to quickly turn the reverb off or on). 28. Effect Out jack sends signal to an external effects processor (its easy to add your favorite effect!) 29. Line inputs (L&R) let you get a stereo input (like a keyboard) into just one input channel. Both channels 7 and 8. 30. Monitor output jacks to connect the monitors (stage speakers).
