Chapter 1: Introduction

The Dugan-MY16 is a 16-channel automatic mixing controller that plugs into a slot
on Yamaha digital mixers. This multichannel audio signal processor patches into the
Yamaha's mic channel insert points. The MY16 detects which mics are being used,
and makes fast, transparent crossfades. This eliminates late upcuts, reduces system
noise and feedback, and lets the engineer focus on balance and sound quality.
The Dugan-MY16 enhances a diverse group of live applications that require multiple
mics:
• Conference reinforcement, video trucks
• Houses of worship
• Film and television dialogue, reality shows
• Theater
• Boardrooms, civic meetings, community TV
• Teleconferencing and distance learning
The Dugan-MY16 is operated from the Dugan Control Panel for Java (included). The
Dugan Control Panel for iPad (sold separately) performs the same function on an iPad.
