Yamaha MLA8 Specifications

Eight-channel mic line amplifier for
exceptionally clear sound reproduction
An eight-channel head amplifier inheriting the head-amp technology of
the acclaimed DM2000 for high-quality sound reproduction
Having won the plaudits of professional engineers from live mixing venues, music
production studios, and countless other areas, Yamaha's acclaimed DM2000 Digital
Production Console provides the head-amp technology used in the MLA8's basic circuit
design. Meticulously reproducing the original sound with breathtaking clarity, this head
amp achieves stunning audio quality.
Highly practical functions in a compact 1U package
Notwithstanding its space-saving 1U design, the MLA8 front panel equips you with a
26dB pad, a 44dB fully adjustable gain trim, an 80Hz HPF, and a phantom-power
switch on each channel. This HPF processes audio signals while still in analog format;
accordingly, in systems combining MLA8s with Yamaha digital mixers, DME64Ns, and
DME24Ns, sound control is simple and the range can be further broadened. Put
simply, MLA8s with digital mixers and DMEs produce the perfect
Consistent functional colors for highly-convenient operation
Functional colors for Yamaha mixers are selected based on a set of common rules.
Similarly, the MLA8 uses green for signal indicators and HPFs, red for peak indicators,
and gray for pads. In systems where this head amplifier is combined with other Yamaha
products, the resulting ability to identify component functions at a glance helps to
realize an environment where operations can be carried out quickly, intuitively, and
without error.
Euroblock and 25-pin D-sub connectors for highly adaptable system
support
XLR connectors are used for the input of audio, and amplified sound is output via a
Dsub-25pin and a Euroblock — an ideal connector for installation. Dsub-25pin
terminals are compatible with the MY8-AD96 8-channel Mini-YGDAI* A/D card, and this
ensures a high degree of affinity with Yamaha digital mixers.
