Precautions
Warnings
Cautions
• Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the
unit to become wet. Fire or electrical shock may
result.
• Connect this unit’s power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this Owner’s Manual or as
marked on the unit. Failure to do so is a fire and
electrical shock hazard.
• Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power
cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical
shock hazard.
• Do not place heavy objects, including this unit, on
top of the power cord. A damaged power cord is a
fire and electrical shock hazard. In particular, be
careful not to place heavy objects on a power cord
covered by a carpet.
• If you notice any abnormality, such as smoke,
odor, or noise, or if a foreign object or liquid gets
inside the unit, turn it off immediately. Remove
the power cord from the AC outlet. Consult your
dealer for repair. Using the unit in this condition is
a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Should this unit be dropped or the cabinet be
damaged, turn the power switch off, remove the
power plug from the AC outlet, and contact your
dealer. If you continue using the unit without
heeding this instruction, fire or electrical shock
may result.
• If the power cord is damaged (i.e., cut or a bare
wire is exposed), ask your dealer for a replacement.
Using the unit with a damaged power cord is a fire
and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not remove the unit’s cover. You could receive
an electrical shock. If you think internal inspection, maintenance, or repair is necessary, contact
your dealer.
• Do not modify the unit. Doing so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• This unit has ventilation holes at the top and right
side to prevent the internal temperature rising too
high. Do not block them. Blocked ventilation holes
are a fire hazard.
• Hold the power cord plug when disconnecting it
from an AC outlet. Never pull the cord. A damaged
power cord is a potential fire and electrical shock
hazard.
• Do not touch the power plug with wet hands.
Doing so is a potential electrical shock hazard.
Operating Notes
• Using a mobile telephone near this unit may
induce noise. If noise occurs, use the telephone
away from the unit.
• XLR-type connectors are wired as follows:
pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (–).
• Insert TRS phone jacks are wired as follows:
sleeve: ground, tip: send, and ring: return.
• The performance of components with moving
contacts, such switches, rotary controls, faders,
and connectors, deteriorates over time. The rate of
deterioration depends on the operating environment and is unavoidable. Consult your dealer
about replacing defective components.

Introduction
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha GF24/12, GF16/12, or GF12/12 mixing console.
These mixers provide an ample twelve outputs, and are suitable for a wide variety of
applications ranging from concert sound reinforcement to installed systems. In order to
take full advantage of the mixer’s functionality and to enjoy years of trouble-free performance, please read this manual carefully.
Note:
• This owner’s manual assumes that you are familiar with basic operation of a mixing
console and its specialized vocabulary.
• At points where the specifications of the GF24/12, GF16/12, and GF12/12 differ, the
specifications of the GF16/12 and GF12/12 are given in curly brackets { }.
Features of the system
• In addition to the main stereo outputs, this mixer
provides six AUX outputs plus four group outputs
(a total of 12 outputs). The AUX/GROUP outputs
can be used not only as sends to external effect
processors or to a multitrack recorder, but are also
ideal for creating separate foldback mixes for each
speaker and amp.
• The MONO OUT jack can be controlled independently from the STEREO OUT jacks. Since a monaural mix of the main output is sent from this
output, it can be used to extend a PA system.
• All input channels provide a high-pass filter, a
three-band EQ, and 60 mm faders.
• All input channels/AUX returns provide a PFL
switch, and AUX/group/stereo output channels
provide an AFL switch. You can audition input and
output sources at the touch of a button.
• All mono input channels provide balanced XLR
type and TRS phone jack connectors that accommodate a range of sources from mics to line level
devices.
• Switchable phantom power is provided. This can
supply DC +48 V power from the XLR type input
connectors to condenser mics and direct boxes
that require an external power supply.
• Two stereo input channels allow connection of
line-level equipment. 1/4" phone jack and phono
jack inputs can be selected by a switch.
• Two stereo AUX returns are provided. This allows
AUX return signals to be sent to an AUX bus or
GROUP bus as well as to the ST bus. These can
also be used as spare line level input jacks.
—Owner’s Manual
• An insert I/O jack is provided on each mono input
channel and on the ST bus, allowing you to insert
external effect processors as desired.
• The TAPE IN jacks and REC OUT jacks let you
easily connect a master recorder for recording or
playback.

Here are the 20 {12, 8} mono input channels of
the GF24/12 {GF16/12, GF12/12}. The input
channel section processes the signal from the
input jacks of the connector section, and sends
the result to the GROUP buses, AUX buses, and
the ST bus.

When the switch is pressed in, the pre-fader signal will be sent to the corresponding pair of AUX
buses. When the switch is in the out (up) position, the post-fader signal will be sent.
These switches send the signal of the input channel to GROUP buses 1–4. When the 1–2 switch is

7 INPUT A jacks 1–20 {1–12 on the GF16/12,
These are phono jacks (unbalanced) that output
the signal from the ST bus, with a nominal level
of –10 dBV. This output signal is not affected by
external effect processors connected to the ST
INSERT I/O jacks (B) or by the position of the
STEREO fader (page 12, 3 in the STEREO/
MONO control section). The pin wiring is shown
in the following diagram.

These are XLR-3-31 type input connectors (balanced) for the monaural input channels. Nominal input level is –16 dB to –60 dB when the pad
switch (page 6, 1 of the monaural input channel
section) is off, and +10 dB to –34 dB when the
pad switch is on.
When the PHANTOM +48 V switch (page 14, 1
of other controls/connectors) is on, DC +48 V
phantom power is supplied to pins 2/3. The pin
wiring is shown in the following diagram.

These are 1/4" phone input jacks (unbalanced)
for the stereo input channels, with nominal level
of +10 dB to –34 dB. When using these as mono
channels, insert a plug only into the 21L/23L
jacks {13L/15L on the GF16/12, or 9L/11L on the
GF12/12}. The pin wiring is shown in the following diagram.

Be aware that it is not possible to simultaneously
use both the INPUT A and INPUT B jacks of the
same channel. Phantom power is not supplied to

These are phono input jacks (unbalanced) for the
stereo input channels. Nominal level is the same
as the INPUT A jacks (6). On the stereo input
channels, you can make connections both to the
INPUT A jacks (6) and the INPUT B jacks (0),
and use the A/B switch (page 8, 1 in the stereo
input channel section) to select whether INPUT
jack A or B will be used.
Be aware that in the case of the INPUT B jacks,
the channel cannot be used as a mono input
channel by inserting a plug only into 21L and
23L. (If only 21L or 23L are connected, the signal
will be sent only to the left channel.) The pin wiring is shown in the following diagram.
