MIXER Owner’s Manual Thank you for purchasing the YAMAHA MV800. The MV800 is an easy to operate mixer that offers an excellent balance between line input devices for BGM or Karaoke and microphone input. When the hall is divided into two zones, the MV800 also offers individual control of those two zones directly from the front panel without the need to change the wiring making it an excellent mixer for banquet rooms, etc.
WARNING: THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED IMPORTANT THE WIRES IN THIS MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE: GREEN-AND-YELLOW : EARTH BLUE : NEUTRAL BROWN : LIVE As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured GREEN and YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter E or by the safety earth symbol
Important 1 Important Read the following before operating the MV800 Warnings • Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on top of this unit. Liquid or metal objects inside this unit are a fire and electrical shock hazard. • Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the unit to become wet. Fire or electrical shock may result. • Connect this unit’s power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this Owner’s Manual or as marked on the unit.
2 MV800 Features Contents • The MV800 provides 8 channels with monaural input jacks, A/B stereo line input jacks and two sets of stereo outputs that are selectable from the front panel. Front & Rear Panels ............................ 3 • Monaural input jacks are equipped with an input select switch that allows compatibility with a wide range of sources such as dynamic microphones, condenser microphones that require an external power source, and line level devices.
Front & Rear Panels 3 Front & Rear Panels Front Panel Section q w r ZONE Select Switch Channels 1-8 (Monaural) Sends each channel’s signal to the ZONE 1 bus and/or ZONE 2 bus. When the switch is ON (>), the signal is sent to the relative bus. e t PEAK Indicator r The indicator detects peaks in the signal after it has passed the EQ. The indicator will light red when the level reaches +17dB to warn that clipping is imminent.

Front & Rear Panels • PAGING LEVEL Control Controls the output level of the PAGING MIC/LINE input and adjusts the volume. i PAGING INPUT DUCKER • PAGING TH Control Sets the level at which the mixer switches to its PAGING function. Rotating the knob to the right lowers the level at which the mixer will switch to the paging function. • PAGING Indicator The indicator lights when the paging function is in use. • PAGING ZONE Select Switch Selects the zone to which the PAGING MIC/LINE signal will be sent.
6 Front & Rear Panels Rear Panel Section y r q u t q Channel Inputs (1-8) • INPUT Jacks Both balanced XLR type and Euro-block connectors are supplied. • • XLR Type (1:Ground, 2:Hot, 3:Cold) Euro-block connectors ( : Hot, : Cold, G: Ground) • Input Select Switch Use the Input Select Switch to match the input with the type of mic or device connected to the INPUT jack. • MIC (+48V) This position allows the connection of a condenser microphone, etc. to the jack.
Front & Rear Panels • STACK OUT This is an unbalanced phone type output jack with a nominal input/impedance of 0dB/10kΩ. It sends the ZONE 1 and ZONE 2 bus signals that have passed through the compressor circuit. The ZONE 1 signal is sent to the Tip while the ZONE 2 signal is sent to the Ring. When multiple MV800s are connected together, this jack sends the signal to the main MV800. It can also be used to send the signal to an external device.

About the MV800’s Functions 9 About the MV800’s Functions ■ About the NOISE GATE Function An unused microphone often picks up unwanted background noise. One way to prevent the problem is to turn the microphone off or set its channel volume on the MV800 to “0” when necessary. An easier way to solve the problem is to use the NOISE GATE. The mixer will automatically accept input from the microphone only when the designated level is exceeded.
10 Applications Applications Example) When Using Two Zones In this example, the MV800 is used to control the sound in two rooms, a banquet room and a Karaoke room. Before making any connections, make sure that power switches on the MV800 and any connected devices are turned OFF. Assign the banquet room to ZONE 1. q Connect microphones to the INPUT jacks of channels 1-4.
