01V96i Product Page Update

It was just over a month ago that we announced the release of our O1V96i mixing console here at the Trainers on the Road Blog.  We didn't have a lot of information regarding the latest addition to our 0 Series Lineup then but just recently the full updated product page was made available at Yamaha's website for your viewing pleasure.  Complete with pictures, block diagram, specs and full explanations of the console's features and functions; the website's information is sure to satisfy the most discerning of audio professionals.  In addition to the product page Yamaha also released the 01V96i Editor for use with the Studio Manager host application.  Below you'll find links to the product page as well as links to specific sections in case you'd rather just jump right into it.
