Description

Lake Processing: The Undisputed Leader in Output Management

Yamaha

Lake Processing technology began in the late 1990s, makes it possible to achieve maximum sonic quality in any live sound situation. Mesa EQ with asymmetrical response curves, Ideal Graphic EQ with minimum inter-band interference, Linear Phase Crossover that allows steep slopes without disrupting phase characteristics: these are some of the Lake Processing features that make it easy to deliver ideal sonic performance in venues of any size, with any acoustic characteristics, and with any speakers from any manufacturer. The intuitive Lake Controller user interface contributes to easy, efficient operation, even under the pressure of preparing for a live show.

 

An Economical Approach to Impressive Processing Power

The small size of the MY8-LAKE belies the outstanding processing power it offers. 8-in/8-out*1 processing is available in Mesa Mode, while Contour Mode provides 4-in/12-out*2 capability. In Mesa Mode the MY8-LAKE can be used to provide system EQ for the main mix or channel EQ for vocal processing, for example. Contour Mode offers optimum crossover processing for superior speaker system performance, eliminating the need for external crossover and EQ devices. The Mesa and Contour modes can also be combined, giving the MY8-LAKE the flexibility to adapt to a wide range of applications.

*1 Equivalent to two Lake LM44 units. *2 Equivalent to two Lake LM26 units. 

 

The MY8-LAKE makes Lake Processing more Accessible than Ever

The MY8-LAKE packs industry-standard Lake Processing output management tools into a remarkably compact and convenient expansion card. By simply installing the MY8-LAKE into a compatible Yamaha digital mixing console you gain powerful, flexible output management capability as well as input EQ functionality that can maximize the potential of your console. And since no extra cabling or rack facilities are required, no additional space or time burdens are imposed. The MY8-LAKE makes advanced Lake processing easier than ever.
