Introduction
 
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha LS9 digital mixing console. In order to take full advantage 
of the LS9’s superior functionality and enjoy years of trouble-free use, please read this manual 
before you begin using the product. After you have read the manual, keep it in a safe place.
The LS9 is a digital mixing console with the following features.
 
 
Mixing system that packs top-class 
functionality into a compact size
 
• • • • • 
 
The LS9 is a full-digital mixing console designed for 
installed systems or SR applications, and in spite of its 
compact size, provides functionality and a channel count 
comparable to large-format consoles. 24-bit linear AD/DA 
converters are used to deliver up to 108 dB of dynamic 
range and amazing sound quality.
As input channels, it provides 32 (LS9-16 model) or 64 
(LS9-32 model) monaural INPUT channels, and four ste-
reo ST IN channels.
As output channels, it provides 16 MIX channels, eight 
MATRIX channels, a STEREO channel, and a MONO 
channel. L/C/R three-channel output using the STEREO/
MONO channels is also supported.
 
 
Analog-feeling operability
 
• • • • • • • • • • 
 
Simply by pressing a key, you can select the combination 
of channels (“fader layer”) to be operated from the top 
panel faders. You can operate the console while quickly 
switching between input channels and output channels. In 
addition, you can also use a custom fader layer that lets 
you specify any desired combination of channels. Since 
fader/cue operations and on/off switching for all channels 
can be performed from the panel, even customers using 
digital consoles for the first time will find operation famil-
iar and comfortable.
The SELECTED CHANNEL section located at the right 
of the display lets you use the knobs to control the main 
parameters (gain, EQ, dynamics threshold, bus send lev-
els, etc.) for the particular channel on which you’re focus-
ing. This section can be operated just like a module on an 
analog mixer.
Mix parameter settings, including head amp gain and 
phantom power for input channels, can be stored and 
recalled as “scenes.”
All faders on the panel are motorized moving faders, so 
that when you recall a scene, the previous fader locations 
are reproduced immediately.
 
Thank you
