Main Features
D-PRE and High-Quality Operational Amplifiers
Mono input channels are equipped with “D-PRE” Class-A discrete microphone preamplifiers. The D-PRE head amplifier
features an inverted Darlington circuit used in high-end audio devices. This circuit uses multi-stage amplifying elements to
ensure high current and low impedance, for an audio texture with crispness and richness in the low and mid frequencies.
Combined with the specially-designed “MG01” operational amp, the overall result is full-bodied reproduction of low fre-
quencies as well as sustained high frequencies. Input channels feature combo jacks, which can accept both XLR and TRS
connectors. In addition, PAD circuitry allows line level input, to accommodate a wide variety of instruments.
Improved Convenience with Built-in Universal Switching Power Supply
The MG series features a universal switching power supply. This power supply supports input voltages of 100 V to 240 V,
for stable operation even in environments where power voltage fluctuates easily. Lowering the impedance of the power sup-
ply has resulted in improved sound quality with a faster attack. An AC inlet allows simple installation in environments
where portability is required, as well as when mounting the mixing console in a rack.
24 High-Quality Digital Effects (XU Models)
The XU models (MG20XU/MG16XU/MG12XU) feature 24 built-in effects that are based on SPX algorithms used by pro-
fessionals. In particular, the high-quality reverb and delay expand the spatial quality of the sound with remarkable realism
and naturalness.
24-bit/192 kHz USB Audio Interface (XU Models)
The XU models (MG20XU/MG16XU/MG12XU) feature a USB 2.0 audio interface capable of 24-bit/192 kHz sound qual-
ity. With the audio interface you can play back music from your computer, or use DAW software such as Cubase AI to
record the mixer output. The XU models support USB Audio Class 2.0 so you can use them with USB Audio Class 2.0
compliant tablets and other devices, without the need to install drivers. The USB protocol uses asynchronous data transfer.
Audio data is transferred based on a highly precise audio clock signal from the MG, for high quality recording and play-
back.

(pages 12 – 13), “Front Panel” and “Rear Panel” (pages 14 –
15).
Step 3 Powering Up the System
To prevent an unwanted burst of noise from the
speakers, power up the devices in the following
order: peripheral devices (instruments, micro-
phones, etc.) mixing console power amps
(or powered speakers).
Reverse this order when turning the power off.
WARNING
Be sure to turn the power on/off in the order given in Step 3
above every time you use the mixer. Failure to do so may
result in loud noise bursts that can damage your equipment,
your ears, or both.

Using Reverb and Delay
Your mixes can be further enhanced by using the built-in ambience effects such as reverb or delay.
Reverb and Delay Time
The optimum reverb time for a piece of music will depend on the music’s tempo and density, but as a general rule longer reverb times
are good for ballads, while shorter reverb times are more suited to up-tempo tunes. Delay times can be adjusted to create a wide vari-
ety of repeating rhythmic effects. When adding a delay to a vocal, for example, try setting the delay time to dotted eighth notes ( e. )
corresponding to the tune’s tempo.
Reverb Level
While working for many hours on a mix, your sense of hearing will start to dull slightly. This can lead to the perception that tracks with
excess processing sound like the perfect mix. To avoid falling into this trap, start with reverb level all the way down, then gradually bring
the reverb into the mix until you can just hear the difference. Any more than this normally becomes a special effect or, worse yet,
makes the sound muddy and indistinct. In general, you don’t want reverb to dominate the mix, so you should apply it judiciously.

Controls and Connectors
r [PAD] switch
When this switch is turned on ( ), the input signal from
the [MIC/LINE] jack of the mono input channel is attenuated
by 26 dB. Turn this switch off ( ) if you’ve connected a
microphone or other device with a low input level to the
channel. Turn it on ( ) if you’ve connected a line-level
device.
NOTE
There may be some noise when operating switches. To prevent
this, turn the [ON] switch of a channel off before operating
other switches.
t [HPF] (High Pass Filter) switch
Turning this switch on ( ) will apply a high-pass filter that
attenuates frequencies below 80 Hz in the signal by a slope of
12 dB/octave.
NOTE
Turning the [HPF 80Hz (MIC)] switch on will apply a dedicated
high-pass filter only to the signal from the [MIC] jacks.
y [GAIN] knobs
For adjusting the gain of the input signal. Mono input chan-
nels have a [PAD] switch r that lets you change the range of
this control.
The adjustable gain range is as follows.
u [COMP] knobs
For adjusting the amount of compression applied to the chan-
nel. As the [COMP] knob is turned to the right the threshold,
ratio, and output gain are adjusted simultaneously.
• Threshold: +22 dBu to -8 dBu
• Ratio: 1:1 to 4 :1
• Output gain: 0 dB to +7 dB
• Attack time: Approximately 25 ms
• Release time: Approximately 300 ms
NOTE
Avoid setting the compression too high; since the resulting
higher average output level may lead to feedback.
i [PHANTOM +48V] switch and indicator
This switch toggles phantom power on and off. Turn this
switch on ( ) to supply DC+48 V to the XLR input jacks.
The indicator lights when this switch is on. Turn this switch
on when using one or more phantom-powered condenser
microphones.
NOTICE
• Be sure to leave this switch off ( ) if you do not need
phantom power.
• When turning phantom power on ( ), pay careful
attention to the following to prevent damage or noise in
the mixing console or connected equipment.
- Turn this switch off if equipment that does not use
phantom power is connected to the XLR input jacks.
- Do not disconnect XLR connector cables while this
switch is on.
- Set output controls such as the [STEREO] master
fader and the [GROUP] fader to their minimum levels
before turning phantom power on or off.
o [LINE /USB ] switch (XU models)
Switches the audio source input on CH19/20 USB IN {CH15/
16 USB IN} {CH11/12USB IN} between the [LINE] stereo
input jack and the [USB 2.0] jack.

!0 Equalizer ([HIGH]/[MID]/[LOW])
Equalization Types and Characteristics
The equalizer shapes the high, mid, and low audio frequen-
cies. Turning the knob to the right amplifies (boosts) the cor-
responding frequency band, while turning it to the left
attenuates (cuts) the band. Setting the knob to the middle “t”
position produces a flat response in the corresponding band.
The upper knob sets the variable mid frequency, while the
lower knob sets the amount of attenuation or boost (counter-
clockwise/clockwise) for the range.
The following table shows the EQ type, frequency, and cut/
boost range for each of the three bands.
* The signals from mono input jacks of the MG20XU/MG20
and MG16XU/MG16 can be adjusted from 250 Hz to 5 kHz.
!1 [AUX 1 – 4] knobs
[PRE] switches
[AUX (2, 4)/FX] knobs
The levels of each signal sent to the AUX 1 –
4 buses from each channel can be adjusted
independently. On stereo input channels, the
Line L (odd) and Line R (even) input signals
are mixed before being sent to each AUX
bus. Adjust the knobs so that they are near or
at the “t” (nominal) position.
NOTE
• The [AUX1] knob indicated “PRE” adjusts the level of the pre-
fader signal (before fader adjustment).
• The [PRE] switch on [AUX1] and [AUX2] can be used to
select whether the pre-fader ( ) (the signal before fader
adjustment) or post fader ( ) (the signal after fader adjust-
ment) signal is sent to the AUX bus by the [PRE] switch.
• The [AUX4/FX] and [AUX2/FX] knobs are used to adjust the
level of the signal sent to the FX bus (built-in effects) in addi-
tion to the AUX bus. The same signal level is sent to the AUX
buses and FX buses connected to these knobs.
!2 [PAN] knobs
[PAN/BAL] knobs
[BAL] knobs
• PAN: Sets the position of the sound image within the
stereo field. This knob adjusts the volume bal-
ance of each channel sent to the STEREO L/R
bus. When the knob is set to the 12 o’clock posi-
tion, the channel’s sound will be sent to the L and
R of the STEREO L/R bus at the same volume. In
this case, the sound image is positioned at the
center. If the bus assign switch [1-2] or [3-4] is
pressed, this knob adjusts the volume balance
sent to the GROUP bus. When the knob is set to
the 12 o’clock position, the same volume is sent
to each GROUP bus. If the knob is turned com-
pletely to the left, the signal is sent to the GROUP
1 or GROUP 3 bus only; if the knob is turned
completely to the right, the signal is sent to the
GROUP 2 or GROUP 4 bus only.

Controls and Connectors
• BAL: Sets the volume balance of the signal sent from
each stereo input channel (L/R) to the STEREO
L/R bus or GROUP bus. When this knob is set to
the 12 o’clock position, the sound of the stereo
input channels (L/R) will be sent to the STEREO
L/R bus or GROUP 1, 3/2, 4 bus at the same vol-
ume.
• PAN/BAL: This knob performs both [PAN] and [BAL]
functions. You can use this as a [PAN] control
when sound is input to the [LINE] (L/MONO) jack,
and as a [BAL] control when sound is input to
both the [LINE] (L) and [LINE] (R) jacks.
!3 [ON] switches
Turn this switch on ( ) to send the respective channel’s
signal to the buses. The switch lights when on. When this
switch is off ( ), the respective signal input is not sent to
the AUX bus or GROUP bus.
NOTE
• Even if the [ON] switch is off, the PFL signal from each chan-
nel can still be monitored via the [PHONES] jack.
• To minimize noise, turn the [ON] switch off for any unused
channels.
!4 [PEAK] indicators
The peak level of the post-EQ signal is detected, and the
PEAK indicator lights red when the level reaches 3 dB below
clipping.
!5 Bus assign switch
These switches determine the bus(es) to which each channel’s
signal is sent. Turn the switch on ( ) to output the signal to
the corresponding buses.
• [1-2] switch: Assigns the channel’s signal to the
GROUP 1-2 buses.
• [3-4] switch: Assigns the channel’s signal to the
GROUP 3-4 buses.
• [ST] switch: Assigns the channel’s signal to the STE-
REO L/R buses.
NOTE
To send the signal to each bus, engage the [ON] switch !3.
!6 [PFL] (Pre-fader Listen) switch
When the [PFL] switch is on ( ), the channel pre-fader
signal is output to the [MONITOR OUT] and [PHONES]
jacks for monitoring. In this condition, the audio from the
STEREO L/R buses or GROUP buses that could be heard in
the [MONITOR OUT] and [PHONES] jacks can no longer be
heard. When a [PFL] switch is turned on, the [PFL] indicator
below the level meter flashes.
!7 Channel faders
For adjusting the level of the channel signal. Use these con-
trols to adjust the balance between the various channels.
NOTE
To minimize noise, set the fader sliders for any unused chan-
nels all the way down.
