Yamaha AG08 MK2 8 Channel Live Streaming Mixer - Black

Leading the charge in Yamaha's second-generation AG series, the AG08 streaming mixer takes centre stage with an enhanced feature set designed for today's demanding creators. Building upon the solid foundation of previous models, the AG08 introduces expanded input/output flexibility, advanced USB routing, and upgraded footswitch capabilities, making it the most adaptable and intuitive model yet.

With improved DSP effects, refined internal circuitry, and studio-grade sound quality, the AG08 delivers exceptional performance whether you're streaming live or producing content offline. From solo creators, be it podcasters, gamers, voiceover artists, or musicians, to team-based productions like talk shows or variety streams, this versatile audio interface adapts effortlessly to your workflow.

Explicitly designed for podcasters, live streamers, and content creators, the Yamaha AG08 is ideal for a wide range of applications, from ASMR sessions and live performances to full-scale collaborative broadcasts. Engineered to meet the real-time demands of modern content creation, it keeps your audience engaged and coming back for more.

Dual Condenser Microphone Inputs and Independent Headphone Outputs

The Yamaha AG08 features two mic inputs with switchable phantom power on Channels 1 and 2, allowing seamless support for condenser microphones. This makes the live-streaming mixer ideal for musicians, podcasters, ASMR creators, and anyone needing high-sensitivity, studio-quality audio. Whether you're capturing detailed vocals, creating atmospheric backgrounds for your tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) sessions, or crafting intricate stereo soundscapes, the AG08 ensures pristine clarity and professional results.

Thanks to the AG08 Controller app, you can easily adjust left/right panning for stereo microphones, including those specifically designed for ASMR recordings, providing complete control over your spatial audio setup.

Additionally, the AG08 includes two separate headphone outputs, making it perfect for co-hosted broadcasts, interviews, or collaborative streaming. Whether you're sharing the session with a guest or have a dedicated audio engineer monitoring the mix, each user can enjoy an independent monitoring experience.

Three Customisable Faders for Versatile USB Input and Output Control

The Yamaha AG08 streaming mixer offers audio routing flexibility with three assignable faders dedicated to Channels 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8. Whether you're managing audio from multiple software applications on a connected PC or from analogue line inputs, each source can be individually mapped to a fader, giving you precise, hands-on control over your mix in real time.

On the output side, the AG08 allows you to assign three independent USB audio mixes to different PC applications, making it easy to tailor your sound for live streaming, voice chat, or content recording. This seamless routing capability means you can send optimised mixes to listeners or collaborators with minimal setup.

Even better, with ASIO-compatible software, such as digital audio workstations (DAWs), the AG08 supports simultaneous multi-channel recording. You can capture direct outputs from Channels 1, 2, 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8 alongside three stereo mix outputs.

Four Custom Effect Preset Buttons for Channel 1

The Yamaha AG08 streaming mixer features four dedicated effect preset buttons located on the lower left of the console, explicitly designed for Channel 1. These buttons enable instant switching between user-defined effects, granting you complete creative control during live performances, podcasts, voiceovers, or streaming sessions.

Whether you're enhancing vocals with reverb, adding depth with delay, or transforming your sound using the built-in Voice Changer, these real-time controls let you tailor your audio to match the moment, without missing a beat.

Five Onboard DSP Effect Categories for Pro-Level Sound Shaping

The Yamaha AG08 audio mixer comes fully equipped with a powerful selection of five DSP-based effect groups designed to refine, enhance, or creatively shape your audio. Because all processing is handled internally by the AG08's digital signal processor, you get zero-latency performance without taxing your computer's CPU.

Here's what's included:

• Voice Changer (Channel 1) / Amp Simulator (Channel 2): Channel 1 features a versatile voice changer, allowing you to alter your voice into various characters, such as different genders or robotic tones, making this ideal for live streaming, voice acting, or gaming. Channel 2 features a built-in amp simulator, delivering authentic-sounding guitar or bass tones without the need for external gear.
• Gate, Compressor / Compander, and EQ: Control dynamics and tone with precision. Whether you're eliminating unwanted noise, tightening your vocals, or fine-tuning frequencies.
• Reverb and Delay: Add space and depth to your mix with lush reverbs or create a rhythmic ambience using the newly included delay effect, perfect for both spoken word and musical performances.
• Ducker: Automatically reduces background audio levels when vocals are present, ideal for clear speech during streams or podcasts.
• Maximiser: Enhance loudness and overall output clarity without distortion, ensuring your audio cuts through the mix.

All effect parameters can be fully customised using the intuitive AG08 Controller app, allowing you to fine-tune each channel for different scenarios.

Reliable and Flexible Power Options

The Yamaha AG08 is designed for dependable performance in any setup, thanks to its upgraded PA-150B power adapter, which ensures greater stability during extended use. Whether you're live streaming, recording, or broadcasting, this external power supply ensures consistent operation across various environments.

In addition to the mains adapter, the AG08 also features an integrated 1.5A USB bus power output, offering added convenience for powering compatible devices or streamlining your desktop setup.

Professional-Grade Software Included for Enhanced Audio Production

The Yamaha AG08 streaming mixer comes complete with a powerful suite of bundled software to support your creative workflow from the start. Included is Cubase AI, Steinberg's renowned music production software, perfect for composing, recording, and mixing with professional results.

Also featured is WaveLab Cast, a versatile tool for audio editing, podcasting, and mastering, making this ideal for refining your recordings and preparing them for broadcast or online sharing.

For mobile creators, the AG08 is fully compatible with Cubasis LE, Steinberg's free iOS DAW app.
