The Dugan-MY16 is a 16-channel automatic mixing controller that plugs into a slot on Yamaha consoles. Sound engineers can now manage multiple live mics without continually riding individual faders.
The Dugan-MY16 automatically detects the active mics and makes fast, transparent cross-fades without the distracting sonic artifacts common to noise gates. It tracks unscripted dialogue perfectly and maintains consistent system gain for up to 16 open mics. With the Dugan-MY16, cueing mistakes and late fade-ups are a thing of the past!
