LS9 StageMix User Guide 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 

Welcome: 

 

Thank you for downloading the “LS9 StageMix” iPad app for the Yamaha LS9-16 and 
LS9-32 digital mixing consoles.  
 

StageMix provides remote control of LS9 functions via a simple, intuitive 
graphical interface from anywhere within wireless range.  The software has 

been specifically designed to allow engineers to adjust monitor mixes from 
the performers’ positions on stage, directly controlling mix parameters via the 

iPad rather than having to rely on verbal directions to a second engineer.  
The result is better mixes in less time: a huge advantage during high-pressure 
pre-show setup.  StageMix does not provide remote control of all LS9 
parameters, but is focused on the requirements for adjusting monitor mixes on 
stage.
