Two heads are better than one, and when it comes to live streaming, the same can be said for microphone inputs. The AG06MK2 offers the same user-friendly configuration and operation that has become synonymous with the AG series, but also comes equipped with two phantom powered mic inputs for condenser microphones. Combined with a flexible range of inputs includes with an additional 1/8" 4-pole mini i/o (TRRS), the AG06MK2 opens up a broader range of ensemble dialogue, interview, or musical performance streaming styles.

Title: Great for live performances
Review: I play keys in a classic rock band and have been using a small submixer to sum the output of 2 keyboards. I have started using iOS virtual instruments and needed a USB audio interface, but didn't want another piece of equipment on stage. This mixer fits my needs beautifully. I use the internal sounds of my top keyboard sometimes and also use it as a MIDI controller for the virtual instruments. The controls of the AG06 Mk II make it easy to switch between the keyboard's native sounds and iOS virtual instruments using the internal interface. The only additional feature I wish it had would be a separate volume control for the main outputs, which go to the front of house PA. However, it really is not a limitation because our sound guy can control my volume on the main board. The mixer does have a volume pot for the monitor outputs, which I connect to a small powered speaker as a personal monitor.The output is pristine, much better than the previous audio interface I had been using, which introduced hiss and buzz. The AG06 made my virtual piano apps sound much more realistic. I can power it using a 10,000 mAh power bank via a USB C hub connected to my iPad Pro, eliminating the need for a wall wart. I don't use the microphone inputs, but it's nice to know they are there if i need them. If you are a live player with similar needs, buy this mixer!

Title: Easy to use and great for podcasts
Review: Once I downloaded the updated drivers from the Yamaha website, this mixer performs effortlessly. The sound quality is great, what you'd expect from Yamaha and the mixer is easy to use. Powers itself from the usb connection to your PC so no additional power cords required. Phantom power if you need it and you can mix in other sources.

Title: Will not work well for some setups
Review: My setup is very specific using pc for accompanying music through otg. The music sounds pristine I wanted a 24 bit interface. The problem comes in when I have my iPhone hooked in aux using loopback for live streaming and recording. Singing tried several different mics. Same problem with clipping in recordings no matter the levels or even using the compression which just seemed to lower the input volume without helping the clipping. The reverb is nice but only one setting in the hardware. It would be nice to be able to adjust this setting on board. I did not use any of the software that came with want hardware that just works the way it is. Iâm sure this is ideal for other types of setups but this one is maybe not as common. Hopefully this helps others who are trying for a similar setup.

Title: love it
Review: i used to use a presonus studio26c as my interface, but it was lacking enough inputs/options. this has so much more utility and sounds every bit as good. super happy

Title: Great sound and build quality but I went with the AG06 MK2
Review: I have the original AG06 but saw the AG03 MK2 and AG06 MK2 as heavily discounted warehouse deals and decided to check them out. I mainly sing and play an acoustic-electric ukulele through the AG06 but use acoustic-electric guitars and keyboards and route them to monitors and my iMac. The AG effects for acoustic instruments are great.The advertising says they have improved the audio quality with updated circuitry, but I can't hear a significant difference with the MK2. The main reason you would be buying the MK2 models is for the USB-C connection and to possibly future proof when they stop supporting the original AG apps. Also the MK2 devices have mute buttons, which is very handy.Ultimately, the AG03 is only slightly smaller than the AG06 because the linear fader takes up more space than the rotary knob. But, the AG06 has an additional channel strip designed for an instrument with its own mute switch, whereas the AG03 gangs this input together with the stereo line inputs. For this reason the AG06 is the way to go if you have multiple instruments and want to keep them connected so they are ready to go. I found the AG03 linear fader to move with very little force, which could be good for riding the volume of a voice-over track but in my application sitting on a desk it is too easily disrupted and not useful.

Title: Noisy
Review: This is a crappy mixer. It injects so much noise. I would expect better from a $2 Temu mixer.

Title: Fun stuff
Review: My setup is a Shure SM7B, cloudlifter, 286s and the AG03. I only have this clunky setup because I have my circumstances of reducing family chatter, white noise and accommodating for my soft spoken voice with occasional eardrum bursting loud yells. I feel the AG03 does best with any microphone to be honest, especially if you have a good environment, free of noises. Do your research though, any equipment is not a one size fits all, so make sure what you buy fits your environment. Despite me telling you this, AG03 is probably one of the most stable audio interfaces around.One of the nicer features to the AG03 is the loopback system, where essentially, you can karaoke on discord. You can also have a comp/eq, reverb, and mute. If you play the guitar or piano, you can input that as well. It pretty much has all the basic needs of a audio interface, with a little extra in comparison to other competitors. If you ever have plans on using two mics required 3-pin inputs, just get the AG06 but if not, you're a loner like me, AG03 suffices.Yamaha made an upgrade so the connections are both USB-C cables now, which is nice. (I originally had an old AG06, with it using different cables so this upgrade was nice)

Title: Not that easy to adjust settings
Review: 1. The app isn't intitive very hard to use.2. If you need to change the setting frequently probably that's not good to idea to choose this one. you have to either connect to you phone or pc to it, since this is the only way you can change. If it support Wi-FI we can connect to it remotely will be much better design.3. The line one seems good for vocal while the line 2 is only for instrument, you could use mic on line 2 but unfortunately it sounds not as good as line 1.4. line 5/6 I would say those audio input cables are out of date, it just increase the cost of buyers, they have to pay more for these converter cables. instead of current design would Bluetooth a better idea?overall, though there're so many good features but it's not that intutive and freindly for user.

Review: It works pretty good for my girlfriend coop gaming needs. But you can hear your own voice in the headphones and there's no way to eliminate that.EDIT: I have used it for month's now and the hearing of your own voice only got worse after i reinstalled the drivers, that's when i decided to leave a mediocre review. Enter ChatGPT, after a little bit of prompting we figured out a solution which i uploaded as an image. Works perfectly now.

Review: Lots of functions / options for a little mixer. Unfortunately the sound quality wasn't there to my ear (for audio playback from a computer, so either the AD conversion or the amplifier circuit). You might be able to do better with some eq, but my attempts didn't get me there. Probably a great option for podcasting.
