Bill S.from Waynesville, Ohio April 6, 2012Music Background: Music Professional The Yamaha MG82CX is a great little mixerThis is a great sounding little mixer. It's quiet, the effects are understated, but very usable. Balanced T/S/R outputs. I just tried it in my studio and for the price it is a real steal.

Roland Vinyardfrom Mohawk Valley, NY September 3, 2012Music Background: semi-pro Yamaha MG82cx mixerIt does exactly what I want it to do, accommodate my duo (4 mikes) and is extremely lightweight (important to me) and compact without sacrificing features that I need and will use. Also, it is not loaded with features that I will not use. I have minimal need for effects, and the ones here sound fine to me. It's a nice unit, one that surpassed my expectations. If I were totally blown away by it, it would have received a 5.
Jeff Duffieldfrom Hendersonville, TN June 20, 2011Music Background: Keyboardist, Producer, arranger, MIDI tracks, Pro Musician Yamaha MG82cxGreat sounding mixer for the bucks! Very clean, efficient. Does everything as advertised, great effects, performs as promised. No complaints!
John Harrillfrom Atlanta, GA January 23, 2013Music Background: Live sound engineer Great for the money!This is just what I needed. Nice flexibility. Low noise, nice compressor. small footprint.
Jeff Superfrom Lakewood, WA August 20, 2011Music Background: Working Coverband Musician(24yrs) Nice Little MixerBought this Yamaha mixer because the reviews I`ve read on it were better than others in it`s price range (even Mackie!). I bought it simply for use as my 2 mics- personal onstage monitor system to go with a JBL EON 515XT (the new and improved one). Must say it works very well and can more than keep up with the other monitors onstage. I send the FOH a send out the back of the JBL. Works out fine. The effects are ok I guess but I don`t really use them, maybe a touch of chorus and the built in compressor on vocal channels. I also engage the 80hz high pass filter to help eliminate rumble (vocal mics only in my case remember). Now that I have this setup, when I want I can incorporate my Ovation Custom Legend onstage without 'having to' buy an acoustic guitar amp as I have more channels left in the board(!). Cool.

Gabriel Magnofrom Las Vegas June 1, 2011Music Background: 44 years pro Can't Be Beat For The MoneyI have a larger, self-powered 16 channel Yamaha mixer, but I do a one man band and really didn't need all that extra weight and inputs. I only need four, and this is great for that.The size and weight is ideal. I don't know about the big bulky AC transformer though. I pair this with a Crown XLS1500 at 300W @ 8 Ohm and power two EV SX300E killer cabinets and it's all I need to sound great. The key here is to be sure you have the best equipment for your job, just as a mechanic does. Junk equipment makes you sound like a junk performer. For quick setups and transportation and for the amount of plugins I need, this mixer does it all. I would have preferred sliders instead of knobs, and perhaps better reverb effects, but that’s my own preference. Otherwise, I recommend this unit... 
from September 6, 2011 Over All a Decent ValueThe thing I like most about this full featured mixer is that it is most likely the lightest of all 8 Channel Mixers. Lets face it, in this price range your not buying a lot of new technology. With Yamaha you will get rock solid reliability (as long as your not abusive) and the basic features you need. With all the other stuff that I haul around to do my thing every ounce of weight counts - electronics of this nature do not need to be heavy, just reliable - and this one fills that bill for me. I think it is priced a little high for what it is but hey, people are paying it so must be worth it?
from iraq September 10, 2009Music Background: Hobbyist white noisevery good price but with alot of white noise too.
