This operates on USB and does not have any recording capability built-in. This is used to record multiple sources at one time and make that into one Stereo/Mono audio output that can be used with a recording software, streaming software, or even a live speaker system. You can record the main output via computer, but even then, this will all be one audio stream, not one for each separate channel. **Q: Is this mixer capable of "mix minus" configuration? If so how is it done? I cant seem to get it to produce any audio from the "fx send" port** A: been trying to determine this for my own setup. thus far it seems No as the AUX is post fader. im trying to isolate the mic on the FX send and have it removed from the main mix.. nothing seems to allow this to happen. i can get the FX send to work but if the usb and the FX send are connected to the same source, both signals carry the mic audio... **Q: Can I add echo and reverb at to the mic?** A: This mixer will only do one effect per channel if your are only using the internal DSP. I believe you can input reverb or chorus, etc into a channel along with a guitar signal if your using a guitar processor like a Line 6 brand. ## Frequently Bought Together - Yamaha MG16 16-Input 6-Bus Mixer - Cable Matters 2-Pack Premium Short XLR to XLR Cables - 3ft, Male to Female Microphone Cable, Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Mic Cord, Black - Rockville RVES1 Tripod DJ PA Speaker Stands (Pair) with Carry Bag, Steel Construction, 100 lbs Capacity, Height Adjustable upto 71 Inches, Perfect for Events and Performances --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/1925902-mg16-16-input-6-bus-mixer](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/1925902-mg16-16-input-6-bus-mixer) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-07-15*
