The Yamaha SB168-ES is a rugged 3U EtherSound digital stagebox delivering 16 recallable mic/line inputs and 8 balanced XLR outputs over a single network cable. Built to integrate seamlessly with compatible Yamaha digital consoles, it provides full remote head-amp control from front of house, including gain, 48 V phantom power and pad, so show files recall consistently and changeovers stay fast. Clear front‑panel indicators for network, link and clock status aid rapid troubleshooting, while word clock I/O ensures stable synchronisation in complex systems.
By replacing bulky analogue multicores, the SB168-ES speeds up load‑ins, reduces weight and keeps analogue runs short for cleaner audio. Trusted Yamaha microphone preamps deliver transparent, musical sound, and the steel chassis is ready for touring racks or fixed installations. Multiple units can be daisy‑chained to expand channel counts without complicating workflow, making it a scalable solution as productions grow.
Ideal for live sound, theatres, houses of worship and mobile production, the SB168-ES offers dependable, networked stage I/O where reliability, speed and repeatability are essential.
