I just received a new Yamaha with more channels. You have saved me a lot of time. Very good job with clear instructions- thank you.

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!

This is exactly what people are looking for in a tutorial.

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!

Enjoying your video in Toronto, Canada in May 2024. Excellent work! You are great at explaining things. Nice camera work too.

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.

exactly the video i need as an audio noob to understand stereo/mono output and input on the mixer, thank you!

[biggz]

Just the video I’ve been desperately looking for much respect solves a lot of my questions

Just got one, thanks for the info. Very helpful

[djpcbaby]

AWESOME VIDEO! Thanks for the 411 G Fire!

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?

[acarrado]

Thanks for the video. Question, in stereo mode on channel 1/2, are both volume pot active and the audio level can be different between 1 and 2 ?

[egorrceiqru-thisiswhoiam]

Awesome presentation! Needed the assistance 😊

[stephenjones]

it is 6 channels it just has one knob for each pair of stereo channels

[amine]

hey man is it the same for the outputs on the mg06x? is the left output mono only? thank you
