Yamaha MY16 DUGAN

The card was developed in collaboration with Dan Dugan Sound Design and is fully compatible with all Yamaha digital mixing consoles (including the new CL series) and processors. Dan Dugan is the inventor of the so-called automatic microphone mixer. The products of the American sound engineer and developer are highly regarded throughout the industry. His technology is able to prevent cueing errors and reduce feedback and disturbing background noise. The devices are remote controllable and capable of working with up to 64 live microphones. They provide smooth transitions for the speakers and deliver constant gain regardless of how many microphones are active. With the Dugan-MY16, the technology is now available to users of Yamaha's digital mixers for the first time. Each card enables automatic microphone mixes at up to 16 channels and 48 kHz. Optionally, eight channels can be mixed automatically at 96 kHz. Channels can be patched to the console's input channels and distributed to up to three independent automixers via the console's setup view. An internal web server provides a complete virtual user interface for remote control via LAN. Several Dugan MY16 cards can be linked together for use in larger systems. They can also be linked with other digital car mixer products from Mr Dugan. "Dan Dugan's sound design products are highly regarded in our industry. The Dugan MY16 card was added to the product line because there was a strong demand from our customers," explains Nick Cook, Marketing Director at Yamaha Commercial Audio Systems.
