Features

• The EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12 provides versatile inputs, such as two stereo input channels and two stereo sub inputs, as well as 16 (EMX5000-20), 8 (EMX5000-12) monaural input channels compatible with mic/line signals. The mixer also has ample power, with a maximum output of 500W + 500W (1000 W with bridge connection), and is suitable for a wide range of applications from installed systems to small-scale PA systems.
• A two-channel power amp is built-in. The signals output to speakers can be selected as stereo (ST L-R), AUX+monaural (AUX 1-MONO), two AUX (AUX1-AUX2) or monaural (bridge connection).
• In addition to the speaker output jacks, two stereo output channels for line-level signals, two AUX output channels, two effect outputs, and one monaural output are provided. You can easily expand the system by adding a power amplifier or powered speakers.
• The EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12 also has a PHONES jack, which is very useful for checking the sound. You can monitor only a specific channel or bus signal through the headphones.
  Each amp contains a limiter circuit to prevent distortion due to excessive input levels.
• A maximum output select switch lets you switch the maximum output of the amp between three levels. This lets you adjust the maximum output of the internal power amp as appropriate for the size of the room or the input capacity of the speakers.
• Two multi-effect units are built-in, each providing sixteen types of effect equivalent in quality to the acclaimed Yamaha SPX series of multi-effect units. The effects can be used to add reverb or ambience to vocals or instruments. The sixteen types (provided by each of the two effect units) include TAP DELAY, which lets you easily adjust the delay time.
• The EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12 has implemented "EEEngine", Yamaha's epochal amp drive technology to create an unrivaled high-efficiency drive. The EEEngine's energy-saver/low-heat-generation design has reduced power consumption to 50% or less, and reduced heat generation to 35% or less (in field applications, compared to Yamaha's previous models), and has lead to a reduction in energy cost and to less-restrictive installation requirements related to heat generation.

Input/output panel

① Channel input jacks (INPUT A, INPUT B) EMX5000-20: 1-16, EMX5000-12: 1-8

By using the GAIN control (control panel 2) you can connect any of the jacks to a wide range of sources, from mics to line-level devices (including synthesizers and rhythm machines). The INPUT A jacks can provide +48V phantom power, allowing you to use condenser microphones.

The nominal input level is from -16dB to -60dB when the 26 dB pad switch (control panel ①) is off, or from +10dB to -34dB when it is on.

Both INPUT A and B are balanced.

They are compatible with microphones of output impedance 50 - 600 or line level devices of 600 .

Pin connections for the jacks are as follows:

INPUT A jacks (XLR type)	INPUT B jacks (TRS phone jacks) *
Pin 1: ground	Sleeve: ground
Pin 2: hot (+)	Tip: hot (+)
Pin 3: cold (-)	RIng: cold (-)

• You can also connect a normal unbalanced phone plug.

Note: It is not possible to simultaneously use both the INPUT A and B inputs of a given channel. For each channel, use only one of the inputs as appropriate for the input source. Phantom power is switched on/off simultaneously for channels 1-8 and 9-16 (EMX5000-20), 1-8 (EMX5000-12). For this reason, devices (in particular, unbalanced devices) other than condenser microphones must be connected to the INPUT B input jacks of channels or channel 17/18-19/20 (EMX5000-20), 9/10-11/12 (EMX5000-12) input jacks if the PHANTOM +48V switch (control panel ③) is on.
