    I'm about to buy one of these mixers and I'm glad I watched this because it seems counter-intuitive. I would've assumed that pressing the "stereo" button would've meant sound would come out in stereo, which in my mind means both speakers. Thank you for clearing that up!

    So funny that made this video now. I had a problem on my August 5th wedding because I must have pushed in the stereo button when putting the mixer away the night before. I was only getting sound from one side and it was creating a ground loop in the system. After swapping out every single xlr to no avail I hit the button and viola back to normal. Thanks for all you do G. Best JB!

    Man, thank you so much for explaining that. I have the same exact thing happened to me last weekend at a gig, and I was so confused. I had to unplug the microphone and plug it back directly into the back of my DDJ 1000 instead of the mixer. I was still planning to figure it out when I stumbled on your video. So thank you so very much for explaining that. It means a lot, and that has helped me out a great deal.

    Thank you for a well-explained video. I understand that having a balanced connection is the best setup if possible. If I run an XLR/TRS to TRS (balanced cable) from my dj controller to channels 3/4 or 5/6 fo the MG06X that is “unbalanced”, then the connection becomes unbalanced? Are there negative effects on this?

    Hi Gerald, So essentially if I had a microphone going into a seperate piece of hardware like a Boss VE500 (Vocal processor) and connected it with two XLRs to Channel 1 & Channel 2 and pressed the stereo button on the mixer, this would give me stereo?

    • @gfire_productions
      @gfire_productions  Před 7 měsíci

      That is correct. Channel 1 of your Boss VE500 would sound off in the left speakers and channel 2 would be heard from your right speaker.

    Great video... one question what if you had 4 separate sources like instruments and or iPads etc, could you use lines 3, 4, 5, 6 ?? Say iPad mono for iPad/TV , 4 for guitar, 5 for keyboard and 6 for drum machine or another guitar?? Do you get what I’m trying to understand?? ‘OR’ is it ok to use double up adapter to have 4 separate sources 2 for 3/4 and 2 for 5/6 Stereo??

    • @gfire_productions
      @gfire_productions  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Not quite and this is why I disagree agree with how they market this mixer as 6 channel. Notice how I only had iPad audio from channel "6" in the right speaker only but the same iPad in channel 5(L/mono) was in both speakers. Certain mixers may have had the concept you thinking of with 3/4 5/6 7/8 etc.. channels but did tricky pan button stuff to expand the number of channels. You then had to adjust the pan on the channels and the volume on each mono instrument to get that perfect balance.
      If you need more channels, I suggest just upgrading to the Yamaha MG10XU or bigger according to you needs. In many case now days these 3/4 5/6 7/8 type inputs are designed for 1/4 stereo pair for tablets/phones/laptops, stereo keys and such. L/mono line input on the mixer is designed for mono keys(out of left channel of the keyboard), guitars or any mono instrument etc… Otherwise, you could have all the "R" channels of 3/4 5/6 heard in the right speaker only.

The other option is to he a pair of 1/4 in TS cables from the L(mono and R out of the keyboard to Chanels 3/4 or 5/6 of the mixer. Definitely set the volume on your keyboard so it is not distorting or overdriving your mixer. Let me know if this helps.

      Basically it comes down to the differences in the ins and outputs. I have the MG10XU in my video room because of conferences and vlogging but the MG06X is a basic PA system for rent or situation's were I only need a couple of mics with the ability to DJ if I want to. As for sound quality the MG06X and 10XU sounds about the same but you have three band EQ on the 10XU versus two band eq on the 06X.

      Hello my friend and thanks for watching. I would have to connect XLR out of the MG06X to XLR in channel 1 and channel 2 on RMX5050. Then Connect speaker or 1/4 TS out to the speakers accordingly. MG06X is set to mono so that both microphones 1 and 2 goes to both speakers through the amp. If the MG 06X is in stereo mode Mike one will go to the left speaker and mic tool go to the right speaker. That is the gist of my understanding for now.
