Yamaha is jamming video capture into everything for NAMM 2026. This audio giant plans to drop three fresh product lines that mix sound duties with visual streaming tricks. Their upcoming MGX consoles bring digital brains to the old analog MG format, while the URX interfaces target the Twitch crowd. A new CC1 controller also arrives to replace the aging Steinberg CC121 hardware.
The MGX range splits into four specific units. Buyers can choose between twelve or sixteen channels, and each size offers a variant capable of grabbing video feeds directly. These boards pack serious preamps pushing 86dB of gain alongside dual USB ports for tracking. Users can dump audio straight onto microSD cards or use onboard effects like voice changers without needing external gear.
Streamers get some love with the portable URX boxes. The top-tier URX44V accepts HDMI inputs to send game footage and high-def audio into a computer simultaneously. Lower-end URX22 and URX44 siblings lack the video port but still record at 32-bit resolution. A touch screen allows quick adjustments, and internal chips handle processing to keep CPU load low during live broadcasts.
That CC1 desktop unit adds twelve custom LCD buttons similar to a Stream Deck. It features a motorized fader and a smart knob that tweaks whatever the mouse hovers over. Pricing stings a bit, as the top MGX16V hits €1299. The video-ready URX44V costs €749, while the basic CC1 controller costs €349 to sit on a desk.
