The IM8-24 is one of the three in the Yamaha IM8 analogue series. The growing demand for smaller consoles has led Yamaha to develop the IM8 that is reminiscent of the Yamaha PM series quality.
Measuring 739mm x 1227mm x 219mm with a weight of 37.8 kgs, this console uses a separate PW8 unit for the power source. A little questionable because given its small size, an internal power supply should already be built-in. And though it is small but not exactly easily portable, users will certainly feel the advantage because in terms of visuals, there should be an easy time reading scales and labels.
The IM8-24 has 24 mono input channels, the unit also has eight groups, four stereo channels, eight auxiliary buses, a four-strip matrix, and mono out buses.
The unit is actually easy to start-up and if there is already a sense of familiarity with the use of mixers, everything will be fairly easy to use with this mixer.
Meanwhile, one of the niftiest features of the IM8-24 (or the entire IM8 series, for that matter) is that the compressor is powered by just a single control. Even though some characteristics are a little limited, this will be a feature that will certainly be enjoyed by everyone.
On the other hand, the equalizer of this console is great as well. With just a little adjustment, a noticeable difference is achievable.
For the master section, there is a full complement of faders for each of the auxiliary buses. Each of them also has a 3-LED meter that comes in handy for monitoring signals. In fact, a larger LED meter is also present to monitor the stereo output level if needed while another one beside it monitors the AFL and PFL points.
The entire IM8 line-up has also included the digital into its system. By incorporating a USB port, users can benefit from a twofold use on playing and sound recording.
