Yamaha AG03MK2 mixer design

The Yamaha AG03MK2 has a slim, compact body measuring 126 x 63 x 201 mm (W x H x D) and weighs just 0.8 kg, so you can easily take it anywhere.

To make the mixer even more portable, Yamaha offers accessories such as the BMS-10A adapter and a portable battery. Together they turn the mixer into a mobile broadcasting station, even where mains power is hard to come by.

The Yamaha AG03MK2 is solidly built for frequent travel. It operates at temperatures from 0 to +40 ℃, including in harsh environments. The mixer is also highly durable, delivering stable, reliable performance over time.

Yamaha AG03MK2 mixer sound and performance

Easy to adjust

The Yamaha AG03MK2 has plenty of built-in physical controls. A large 60 mm fader lets you set levels quickly and intuitively, and a new mute button cuts the mic input instantly when needed.

Reverb and Mute can also be controlled with the FC5 footswitch, sold separately. This lets you carry on with other tasks without having to focus on adjusting the sound.

Flexible connectivity

The Yamaha AG03MK2 offers plenty of connectivity options. Besides the mic input for condenser microphones, there is a 1/4-inch input jack for guitar or other instruments, as well as a 4-pole mini (TRRS) port for smartphone input/output.

The LOOPBACK function sends audio from a device connected over USB back into the USB streaming output, just like previous AG-series mixers. This expands your live streaming options and helps you create high-quality online music performances.

Improved sound quality

With improved internal circuitry and a USB-C connection, the Yamaha AG03MK2 delivers higher sound quality. The upgraded circuitry, together with fast data transfer and stable power over USB-C, raises audio quality when streaming live for a more professional music experience.

DSP effects for professional sound

The DSP audio processing in the Yamaha AG03MK2 adds no latency, helping you achieve professional-quality sound. Whatever your streaming scenario, you will always want a deeper, wider sound to make your streams truly professional.

The Yamaha AG03MK2 has 1-TOUCH COMP/EQ and REVERB controls optimised to suit your style, plus an amp simulator that adds realism and punch to the guitar input.

All these tools run on the built-in DSP chip with no latency. This is especially important for live streaming, where split-second timing matters. You can also switch the effects off completely to record the dry sound and edit it later.

"AG Controller" for precise control

The AG Controller software gives you precise control. With two operating modes, "Simple" and "Detail", AG Controller lets you manage your sound easily and accurately from any Windows/Mac or iOS device connected to the Yamaha AG03MK2 via USB.

Fits many spaces

The Yamaha AG03MK2 has a sleek, compact and thin design that sits easily on many surfaces. You can also use the BMS-10A adapter to mount it on a mic stand or connect it to a portable battery, creating a flexible streaming station for all kinds of spaces.

Software bundle included

The Yamaha AG03MK2 also comes with a powerful software bundle, including Cubase AI and WaveLab Cast for audio production and editing. It is also compatible with the Rec'n'Share and Cubasis LE apps for iOS devices, offered free by Yamaha and Steinberg to support and inspire your audio content creation.
