Did you properly connect the mixer and a computer by using the included USB cable?
Did you press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch?
No sound.
Did you download and install the Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver from the following Yamaha

http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/ag/
Did you properly connect the external devices such as microphones, and powered monitor
speakers?
Are any connecting cables shorted or damaged?
Did you turn on the power of connected electric instruments and external devices, and the
powered monitor speakers?
Did you properly adjust the [GAIN] knobs and Level knobs of all relevant channels, the
Speakers [ ] knob, and Headphones [ ] knob to appropriate levels?
Are the [PAD] switches and [GAIN] switches turned on (
O
)?
Turn these switches off (
N
). If the volume of the sound source is too soft, turning on these
switches might result in no audible sound.
Is the [MONITOR MUTE] switch turned on (
O
)?
If you are using webcasting software, is the volume adjusted appropriately in the software?
Sound is faint, distorted, or noisy.
Are the [PEAK] LEDs lit?
Lower the [GAIN] knobs, or turn on (
O
) the [PAD] switches.
Are the [GAIN] knobs/ Level knobs on each relevant channel, the Speakers [ ] knob, or the
Headphones [ ] knob set too high?
Are the [PEAK] (red) indicators of the level meter lit?
Adjust the Level knobs of all relevant channels to appropriate levels. Lowering the volume with
the Speakers [
] knob or the Headphones [ ] knob will not affect the [PEAK] indicators on
the level meter.
Is the volume from a connected device too loud?
