Digital Mixing Console Yamaha TF5

Yamaha has always made it a mission to stay in touch with the needs of sound engineers worldwide. The outcome is evident in the success of the recent CL and QL series digital mixing consoles, and the flagship RIVAGE PM10. The key to success has always been in supporting the user’s creativity. Creativity is most effective when unrestricted, and now Yamaha has created a new digital mixing console that gives the user's intuition even freer rein. TouchFlow Operation™ introduced in the TF series consoles allows the user to respond to the music and artists on stage with unprecedented speed and freedom, taking live sound reinforcement to a new level of refinement. With the TouchFlow Operation interface optimized for touch panel control, experienced engineers as well as newcomers to the field will find it easier than ever to achieve the ideal mix. Recallable D-PRE™ preamplifiers support sound quality that will satisfy the most discerning professional ears, while advanced live recording features and seamless operation with high-performance I/O racks give these compact digital mixers capabilities that make them outstanding choices for a wide range of applications. Experience the intuitive control and creative freedom that a truly evolved digital console can provide.

TF5 in all-in-one system

TF can be used to mix the large bands because it has 32ch inputs. Also, it has 16ch outputs that can be freely assigned allowing for 14 monitor outputs if 2ch has been used for main output. A TF can control both stage and monitor mixing. MonitorMix App for iPhone allows players on stage to control their monitor level by themselves, thus increasing flexibility and efficiency when many players are involved.

High input capacity and fader count makes this powerful console ideal for larger applications.
