EMX2000—Owner’s Manual
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha EMX2000 Powered Mixer. In order to take full
advantage of the EMX2000 and enjoy long, trouble-free performance, please read this
owner’s manual carefully, and keep it in a safe place for future reference.
Features
• The EMX2000 provides versatile inputs, such as
two stereo input channels and two stereo sub
inputs, as well as eight monaural input channels
compatible with mic/line signals. The mixer also
has ample power, with a maximum output of
200 W+200 W (400 W with bridge connection),
and is suitable for a wide range of applications
from installed systems to small-scale PA systems.
• A two-channel power amp is built-in. The signals
output to speakers can be selected as stereo main
(ST L-R), monaural main (MONI 1-
MONO), or monaural main (bridge connection).
– Stereo main
The main stereo mix signal is output from
speaker output jacks L and R of the EMX2000.
You can connect one or two speakers to each
speaker output jack.
– monaural main
The main monaural mix signal is output from
speaker output jack R, and the monitor signal
from speaker output jack L. You can connect one
or two speakers to each speaker output jack.
– Monaural main (bridge connection)
The two-channel power amp is bridge-con-
nected, and the main monaural mix signal is out-
put from BRIDGE jack. You can connect only one
speaker for a much louder sound.
• In addition to the speaker output jacks, two ste-
reo output channels for line-level signals, two
monitor output channels, one effect output, and
one monaural output are provided. You can eas-
ily expand the system by adding a power ampli-
fier or powered speakers.
• The EMX2000 also has a PHONES C-R OUT
jack, which is very useful for checking the sound.
You can monitor only a specific channel or bus
signal through the headphones.
• Two limiter circuits are built-in to prevent exces-
sive input levels to the amp.
• A digital effect with sixteen selectable effect types
is built-in. A variety of effects can be applied to
add reverberation or ambience to vocals or
instrumental sounds.
• The EMX2000 has implemented “EEEngine”,
Yamaha’s epochal amp drive technology to create
an unrivaled high-efficiency drive.
The EEEngine’s energy-saver/low-heat-genera-
tion design has reduced power consumption to
50% or less, and reduced heat generation to 35%
or less (in field applications, compared to
Yamaha’s previous models), and has lead to a
reduction in energy cost and to less-restrictive
installation requirements related to heat genera-
tion.
