The AUDIOGRAM6 from Yamaha is a computer-based recording system that is easy to set-up and use. The system is a complete kit and bundles together a hardware interface that provides the audio inputs and outputs to the computer, software for recording and producing music, and a USB cable for connecting the audio interface to the computer.
The audio inputs allow for attaching a variety of sources that include instruments, microphones, CD players, MP3 players, and even old record or tape players for recording straight into Cubase AI. Because the input sensitivity of each channel can be changed for direct connection of electric guitars and basses with a push of a button, there's no need to study up on impedance and other specialist recording topics.
Normal compressors can be very difficult to adjust. The single-knob compressors on the AUDIOGRAM6 are extremely simple, using just a single knob to adjust compression for smoother and more balanced recordings. Basic mixer functions such as input and output control knobs, along with signal and peak LED indicators, round out an efficient and comprehensive recording system.
