All-In-One Streaming Station
As the flagship model of Yamaha’s second-generation AG series lineup, the AG08 Mixer (Black) combines all the essential functionality of its predecessors with a versatile selection of practical new features to give you a powerful all-in-one 8-channel streaming station. By integrating more flexible I/O and USB routing options, expanded footswitch functionality, improved internal circuitry for class-leading sound, assignable sound pads, and onboard sampler, the AG08 is able to support an impressive array of live streaming and podcasting applications, offline audio content creation—including single and multiple users talking—gaming, ASMR, voice-acting applications, and vocal/instrument performances.
The AG08 offers 8 input channels, each with adjustable faders and mute buttons for quick, manual control of audio levels. Onboard DSP processes various effects with zero latency and no burden on the user's Mac/Windows computer or iOS device. The effects include a voice changer on Channel 1, an amp simulator on Channel 2 for improved guitar/bass tones, a ducker function, and more. Each channel has independent compression, EQ, reverb, and delay settings to customize your sound. The AG08 is powered via either USB-C bus power or the included adapter for more stable operation. It comes bundled with Cubase Al, WaveLab Cast, and Cubasis LE to get your productions started right away.
Two Condenser Mic Inputs with Two Headphone Outputs
Both Channel 1 and 2 of the AG08 come equipped with phantom power to support condenser microphones, favored amongst musicians and dialog-driven content creators for their exceptional sensitivity and fidelity. With the AG08 Controller app, you can pan left and right with stereo microphones, including those for ASMR.
There are two independent headphone monitor channels for applications where two people are podcasting simultaneously.
Three Assignable Faders for Flexible USB In/Out
The signal from multiple apps on a USB-connected PC or analog line inputs can be individually assigned, enabling you to intuitively mix the Line/USB audio signals with the faders. Conversely, three USB mixed outputs from the AG08 can be individually assigned to various apps on your computer via USB connection.
Combining these functions makes it easy streamers/podcasters to interact in real time, sharing previously mixed audio with chat partners or listeners during live chats and streaming.
What's more, for ASIO-supported apps such as DAW software, the direct out from each input channel (Channels 1, 2, 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8) and three mixed channels can be used in parallel, enabling multichannel recording, even during live streams.
Four Effect Preset Buttons for CH1
The four effect preset buttons on the bottom left of the AG08 console allow you to seamlessly switch between customized effect presets for Channel 1 on the fly.
This gives users versatile, real-time control to add just the right amount of effect—including the new Voice Changer. Ideal for dramatic and live music performances
Five DSP Effects
The AG08 comes equipped with high-quality effects to color, correct, or enhance your vocal and musical instrument signals. All effects are processed by the onboard DSP, so there is no latency and no impact on computer processing.
Voice Changer (CH1) / Amp Sim (CH2)
Comp, EQ, Reverb, Delay
The Ducker function can be used to automatically attenuate the playback sound of Channels 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8 relative to Channels 1 and 2, so you can easily set up a streaming system where signals from Channels 1 and 2 are always heard clearly
Maximizer is a simple yet powerful mastering function that adds a level boost to your mix for extra polish and professionalism while attenuating peaking signals to give your listeners and viewers a more comfortable and pleasant audio experience.
Six Sound Pads with Sampler
The AG08 comes equipped with six customizable sound pads that allow you to easily add sound effects in real time to liven up your broadcasts.
Using the AG08 Controller dedicated app, you can simply drag and drop existing sound files and assign them to the pad of your choice, or record your own samples and trim them to their desired length within the app.
Powerful Bundled Software
The AG08 comes bundled with Cubase AI music production software, as well as WaveLab Cast for audio production and editing.
The AG08 is also compatible with Cubasis LE applications for iOS devices, which are available free of charge from Steinberg to support and inspire your audio content creation.
