Yamaha LS9

The compact digital desk that let one person run the show

Live Discontinued 2007 · 🇯🇵 Japan · Digital · ADAT/AES/EBU

Description

The LS9 put Yamaha digital mixing within reach of a single operator: compact, light, portable, yet fitted with the field-proven live features of the M7CL. As the LS9-16 or LS9-32 it became a standard for rental stock, houses of worship and mid-size venues — you still run into it everywhere.
