XENYX X1622USB Premium 16-Input 2/2-Bus Mixer with XENYX Mic Preamps and Compressors, British EQ, 24-Bit Multi-FX Processor and USB/Audio Interface

Quality product. Just the right amount of audio ins/out. Nothing complicated. Works really well in my setup.

I bought this mixer with a view to starting out with some simple podcasting - there are smaller versions available, but I deliberately bought the extra capacity for when my projects develop and become larger and more complex.I've read reviews where people have slated these mixers for not having the stated number of channels, or such. It is a bit misleading. This has 4 mono inputs - XLR or balanced / unbalanced jack. Each of these gets 48V phantom power if you switch it on. There are then 5 stereo inputs (2 channels each) and a stereo subgroup. 4 + 10 + 2 = 16.Each of the channel strips is well specified with gain and compression on the mono strips, 4 band EQ AUX / FX Send - mute, solo, sub.Although you can send signals to off board effects processors, there is also an onboard unit with quite a range of effects.Strictly, i suppose it's a PA mixer or for recording single take performances.I use mine with GarageBand and the output from the mixer comes into GB as a single stereo source. I record music and voice over separately on different GB tracks. A benefit of this mixer for me is that I can customise channel strips and leave them set, even though I might not be using them.Any music tech student or home recording musician would do well to look at Behringer kit - you'll get great quality at a great price.Don't be tempted though by the software package - much of the stuff is freeware and you probably have far better DAW / podcasting software already. If you use Mac OS X Lion, much of the free stuff won't work anyway. The proprietary DAW package works well, but Macs have GarageBand which is far superior. Windows people, you're also bound to have your favourite package also.

Great for recording podcasts in person.

The Behringer XENYX X1622USB Premium 16-Input 2/2-Bus Mixer with XENYX Mic Preamps is a very very capable mixer but... its not a high end mixer! I'm not going to get all technical, suffice it to say the rotary controls (potentiometers) are a bit lacking and certainly not the precision you need for professional work but, I mean, it will get you out of trouble if its all you've got. There are situations where it is noisey when you would like it not to be but its not expensive so I guess this is one of those "you get what you pay for" items. As a side note this is the second one I ordered because my first attempt to get this item didn't work out well, someone tried to get me to pay very very expensive postage from Poland and I didn't even receive the item so keep an eye out for where your item is coming from if you decide to buy one and double check the advertised postage costsUPDATE: After some months of use I'm finding the phones/control room knob is failing badly along with the channel mute button on channel one which I use most frequently. I feel quite disappointed I haven't had more time before this kind of failure, I now need either to repair or replace the mixer as it is not doing the job I bought it for.

Perfect inexpensive podcast, v/o and production mixer. Plugs straight into the USB socket on your computer, and (with a little extra wire lightning male to USB female camera adaptor) will work directly into your iPad. Versatile FX and mic compression built in. Has phantom power for professional standard mics, and a headphone socket for closed monitoring of mix or playback. Will not drive loudspeakers directly without an amplifier. The best on the market for low budget but high quality audio work.

A great little mixing desk, with great audio quality and fx. Basic but perfect for those little gigs and also home recording. Does exactly what I need it to, without paying a premium!

Was fine for the first month after that it started having a loud feedback noise that would clip the speakers and managed to damage 4 of my active speakers

A major upgrade from my previous desk, this added numerous features which have proved their worth. From quality dsp to USB connectivity for use with DAW software.Ideal for band start ups or medium level home studio use, or dj/karaoke use.If you need something more advanced than a line mixer but not quite the high end studio type then this or its stablemates offering fewer or a few more inputs is well worth a look.It includes dsp/sound processor pass throughs, built in compressors on 4 mic lines plus dsp. Although your probably going to want the pass through option for more serious work the built in processor is fine for basic vocals.Certainly worth a look if you can find them on offer as I did, and need more flexibility.Build quality on mine is spot on.

een goed en nuttig produkt.werkt perfect.

very good, perfectly shipped, works great.

Vi scrivo perche vedo recensioni (che siano vere o false) ma un po' discordanti. Ovviamente se vi arriva un prodotti difettoso può capitare trovo asurda la recensione arrivato difettoso(...eee cambialo). Cmq cerco di spiegare e aiutoare un po' di indecisi xche di mixer ormai c'è ne sono di tutti i colori!!!...Sono partito due mesi fa perché ho deciso di installare un impianto home theater + karaoke + giradischi (vinili) una cosa carina per passare i weekend on gli amici e anche piacere di un piccolo cinema in casa...e mi serviva una console che gestisse il tutto (al di la dell'amlificatore che ora èmontato dopo il mixer come finale...ma da li uso solo più il volume). Cmq Sono partito acquistando un mixer un po' diciamo poi economico da 60/100euro. Percarità funzionano ma si sentono disturbi e cmq ho notato ora con questo sotto mano che (tralasciando i materiali) che i suoni sono proprio diversi.Come prima cosa la qualità dei materiali è molto buona che soprattutto si ha un sito internet... Ovvero la casa madre a cui rivolgersi in caso di problemi e poi si trovano i pezzi di ricambio mentre invece quelli economici si rompe lo butti…Ho deciso di prendere questo qua un pelo più grosso che poi devo dire Non è così esagerato ma soprattutto non ho scelto la serie con la qx perché non mi servivano i microfoni wi-fi in quanto uso gli Shure sm58 è il beta58 preferisco col cavo. Collegato un impianto come dicevo Home Theater e fin lì Tutto bene, Si sente e lo equalizzata molto bene il compressore del suono ovvero con la manopola col grafico, per far capire in alto, gestisce molto bene i suoni. In quest'ultimo punto ed è stato oggetto anche di acquisto di questo mixer piacendomi i vinili ho un giradischi un po' più vintage che necessitava di preamplificatore e con questo mixer è e la valvola del compressore lo equilibra in una maniera spettacolare Quindi col giradischi funziona che è una meraviglia e mi sono evitato il pre amplificatore. Che se già quello costava €100 circa una medio li ho investiti su questo. Mi è arrivato da un po' di giorni è ancora presto però devo dire super soddisfatto.Se non vi interessa la USB per il wi-fi vi consiglio questo perché si risparmia un pezzo dei soldini.Nelle recensioni che leggevo alcuni chiedevano per il giradischi e vi devo dire che a me funziona molto bene anzi lo amplificato che è una meraviglia...ovvio tutto sta sempre nella qualita delle casse audio finali!...

Excellent rapport qualité prix. Fonctionne très bien et facile à utiliser. Des heures de divertissements assurées avec Behringer.
