  • where do these things go on at?

  • @behringer ok.

  • @behringer How much does this mixer cost in South Africa?

  • @Walktall01 I don't have international pricing readily available. A dealer in your region can give you the most accurate pricing info available.

  • o produto é bem bonito mais a qualidade é muito ruim principalmente nas frequencias graves o som é saturado sem falar que os volumes sempre tem que estar no ultimo tudo tem que ser usado no maximo pra obter som seja no master ou canais individuais tem tambem o exagero de canais estérios sao muitos e acaba faltando canais monos sempre. desculpa a franquesa valeu.

  • I bought a Xenyx 1222 USB mixer brand new and my computer won't pick up the mixer. other usb stuff always seems to work so i am wondering what i can do to fix this? also i was wondering if thisi s a good mixer to record drums. thanks!

  • @ethanVROOMAN For your first question, you might want to try downloading the ASIO4ALL driver. If you're still having problems, please contact BEHRINGER tech support and we'll get you sorted.

    As for your second question, yes this mixer will work great for recording drums, or just about anything else you can put in front of a microphone. :)

  • @ethanVROOMAN

    do you know if they work for Linux systems, because i dont wan t to hav to pay $1200 for a mac just to use garage band and my old windows system on my computer is shedded.

    Please help

  • @GhyschurStudeos No guarantees, but we've tried some of our mixers and interfaces on a PC running Ubuntu, which worked very well.

  • Do these mixers support phantom power for condenser mics?

  • @hiian123 Yes, the XENYX USB mixers support phantom power!

  • Is it possible to record with this stuff? I have M Audio fast track, but I need more channels, like 3 mics at same time and 2 instruments... Will it work like M audio fast track? Like audio interface? How about latency and this things? And as I understand you CAN'T control software with this mixer like Cubase or Pro Tools?

  • @ridiska You can record with this stuff, but the XENYX USB mixers only record one track at a time, and do not control software, I'm afraid. I don't think we have what you're looking for ...yet. We do have a lot of cool stuff in the works, though.

  • This mixer is for the use of mics and stuff like that right?

    Not for controlling software like the BCF2000?

  • @hardstyleaddictedNL Yep! You're on the right track!

  • @hardstyleaddictedNL So u mean if I purchase a behringer xenyx x2222 and it comes with software I can't control fl studio using it?

  • @solohelltown The XENYX series mixers were not intended for that purpose, I'm afraid.

  • I'd like to know wether i can make a multi-track recording.

    Greetings linkshaendergroove

  • @linkshaendergroove No multitrack recording with any of the mixers currently available. The UFX1604 will be able to, though. 

  • So how much hot glue do they use on the new models?

  • i have a Xenyx 1204usb mixer and i would like to record my drummer using 3 live mics and my guitar using two channels (going directly from the amp to the mixer. I can't seem to get each microphone to register as its own track. Do i need to buy an audio interface? Would i be able to hook my mixer up to that seeing as how it is connected with a USB? thankyou

  • @BilangualPotato666 The USB outs on the 1204USB are designed to output a two track stereo mix. I don't think there's a mixer currently on the market that outputs each input to its own separate track via USB. :(

  • @behringer thanks for the reply. if i'm looking for a 12-16 channel mixer that can give each input it's own track what would you reccomend

  • @BilangualPotato666 I'm afraid that there isn't ANYTHING like that out there right now by anyone. When the UFX1604 and X32 are released next year, they'll be able to output individual tracks to USB stick or external HDD.

  • @behringer well thank you for the reply. deffinately saved me alot of trouble

  • @behringer

    So if i wanted to say, record a drum kit, and used 8 mics for toms,overheads,snare,etc... in the final mix on protools for example it will all come out as 1 track?

  • @phili666 Yes, unfortunately. It's a limitation of USB cables. :( When the UFX1604 is released, though, it will be able to record 16 discrete tracks to a thumb drive.

  • @behringer

    thanks for the info, when will the UFX1604 be out?

  • @phili666 Spring 2012. :)

  • @phili666 yes it will come out as a stereo track, but if you get the x2442usb it has 8 direct outs so thats the only way of having your whole kit as separate tracks. But you would need a inerface which has that many in's.

  • I just bought the X2442USB, and it's not working with Cubase LE4 no matter what ASIO driver I use. Can anyone help me? Another 2 or 3 days and I have to return it if I can't get it working.

  • @mikemeghanhamilton We sent you a PM :) Let's get your mixer working!

  • i have a x1622 can i route all channels into my daw or only 1?

  • @CORNERSTOW Hi! The USB connection on the XENYX mixers is a 2-Channel stereo mix.

  • It's compatible with pro tools 9?

  • @ignasi9 Should be good to go with the ASIO drivers. Cheers!

  • would i need to buy a PA system to use one of these?

  • @dudester97 For live sound applications, yes. The XENYX USB Mixers are not powered, and as such require external power amps w/ passive speakers, or a set of powered speakers. Are you setting up a music venue?

  • Based on your recommendation of the UFX1604, are you saying that when plugged into a pc, it will display 16 virtual channels instead of two stereo channels that can be mixed "post production"? If this is the case, what s/w comes with this mixer, and ALSO, would you recommend it for a live setup as well? Thanks!

  • i want to ask a question:

    when u connect the mixer to the pc with usb do all the traccks go on different channels or do they go on the same channel?

  • i own 2442 and i have no idea how to use it with my mac for recording

  • @mikeylonglegs The XENYX 2442USB ships with a USB/Audio Interface that enable the mixer to run straight into the USB port of your Mac, sending in a 2-track stereo mix. No drivers required, though you may need an adapter to connect the 1/4" outputs of the mixer to the RCA inputs of the USB/Audio Interface. Thanks for checking in!

  • I have protools 9 and i am gonna get a audio interface for my at4040 mic.Question is can i use the mixer as an interface or do i need to get an audio interface for my protools also.Do i need both.protools 9 know uses almost any interface now.

  • @superdb808 No, the mixer is not an interface. It sends a 2-track stereo out via USB.

  • Can i use garage band with this mixer?

  • Is there software to use with this that will separate the channels into their own audio tracks on the computer for editing?

  • Du u have to use a behringer mic with these, Cause i have an AT2020 ?

  • @clark13lfc no u can use any mic u want

  • @clark13lfc Nope! Any XLR mic will do.

  • Hey i have a question...

    If i use this mixer to record drums, will it single out each output microphone while recording through logic pro. In other words, can i have each individual microphone as a seperate track?

    thanks

    mike fasano

  • I have a XENYX X1204USB and one question...

    Can I control the DAW software with the mix surface?

    What are the propose of the USB port?

    Thanks!

  • @katxoupi No, the faders do not send MIDI out to control a DAW. The USB port provides a stereo output to your workstation.

  • with the Behringer Xenyx X1832usb may i record drums?

  • @jesusofmaiden i have the same question...hope they answer it lol

  • @jesusofmaiden yea u can record drum if u have electric drums u can just plug them from the drum to the inputs or hook up mics to the to the drums and mic inputs for a more authentic sound

  • @jesusofmaiden Absolutely!

  • Hey is this good for recording drums?

  • I love it already! but I only have one question:

    Say you have all channels hooked up to record a whole band, can you press record in a recording program like cubase, and it will record everything at once? or can it only record like 4 tracks at once? Thanks!

  • I love it already! but I only have one question:

    Say you have all channels hooked up to record a whole band, can you press record in a recording program like cubase, and it will record everything at once? or can it only record like 4 tracks at once? Thanks!

  • @melo477 The USB connection provides a 2-track stereo output, not discrete tracks. If that's what you're interested in, however, I'd encourage you to take a look at something we've got coming up at NAMM 2011!

  • Why does the 1222 lack functions of the 1832? Does it gain in any way?

  • With the usb interface, is it possible to get multi-track recordings from this mixer?

  • what is the differnce between xenyx and eurorack besides usb capability?

  • is this mountable on a 19" rack?

  • I've got 2 questions for behringer.

    1) As it's got usb port; does it mean it has an audio interface device built inside it, to improve the quality?

    2) I need to conect a condenser microphone into it, I Know it needs the phantom power button on. but If I connect other types of microphones like dynamics microphones at the same time; Will all they work correctly with the phantom button on?

    Thanks...

  • @armandvanheldenxyz 1) yes, this mixer has a built in interface so you can directly send your stereo mixer into your computer without requiring a specialty sound card. I believe the USB also serves as 2-track input as well.

    2) Phantom has no effects on dynamic mics (some will argue differently). I have a Yamaha MG32 and the Phantom applies to 8 ch at a time. I only use 1 condenser and the rest dynamic, no problems.

  • @armandvanheldenxyz - sorry ran out of characters. But i recommend you to turn off the phantom if no condenser is not used. Even with Dyn. Mics, voltage is still applied to the mic and create unnecessary heating of your mixer ... which cuts the life of your gear -- hope this helps

  • @armandvanheldenxyz

    1) The USB connection requires no additional interface devices. Plug and play!

    2) We recommend turning phantom power off for using dynamic mics. Most dynamic mics will still function with +48v power turned on, but be careful! Vintage ribbon mics, in particular, can be damaged by misapplication of phantom power. If you HAVE to send +48v current to a dynamic mic, check the manual for whatever dynamic mic you are using first.

  • What are you saying when you mean a discrete track? Like I would have to know them personally in order to gain a cd seperately recorded? I may be a little confused lol

  • Okay, so its coming up to Christmas, and have been looking at the X1222, all the features interest me, but, I have been reading about these mixers, and have read a forum saying that you can not record multiple tracks at once. For example, if I wanted to record a guitar and bass on separate tracks, at the same time, would this be possible? or would I have to do them separately ?

  • @jasond27061993 You can record many inputs into the mixer simultaneously, and mix them down to a 2-channel stereo output. The USB connection does not offer discrete multichannel connectivity.

  • @behringer how many inputs though. can it record 7? because i need to put 7 mics into a mixer and than connect the mixer to a track on a multitrack recorder. can i connect it to a multitrack? please help

  • Hey, i have a question also.

    Are these made for mixing live shows, but can record at home?

    or made for recording at home, but can mix shows.

    Cheers.

  • @Someguitarplayer1 - The XENYX USB Mixers are designed to be used for either application!

  • @behringer

    Is this something that can mute out certain parts of a song? say i put a red hot chili peppers cd and I want to mute out the drums, bass, and vocals and only want to hear guitar, is a piece of equipment like this a perfect candidate for that application??

  • @Sauron767 No, that would require that the Chili Peppers recording you have to contain discrete track information such as bass, drums, and vocals on separate tracks. Commercial CD's only contain a 2-track stereo mix.

  • @behringer

    wait so either the cd can't be commercial or your telling me to use a different piece of equipment?

  • @Sauron767 There is no equipment that I am aware of that can extract separate bass, guitar, drums, vocals, and other instruments out of a regular commercial audio CD. Commercial CDs only feature a 2-track stereo mix of all recorded instruments. For discrete instrument tracks (AKA original masters) you would need to contact the Red Hot Chili Peppers themselves, or perhaps their record labels or the studios where the songs were recorded. It's unlikely that they would give that information away. :(

  • It would be great if you made one of these is a smaller format.

  • i need some help when i connect my mixer to the computer the audio doesnt pick up on my software but it comes out the monitors ive hooked up

    also how do i access the plug-ins

  • @BudAntics Press the "2 TACK/USB TO MAIN" above you main faders

  • @behringer do it have phantom power?

  • @DREDAE24  Yes!

  • @DREDAE24 yes

    

  • Can you plug a guitar directly into the mixer? Acoustic or electric? Would that sound compare to using a guitar amp?

  • @BlackAngusYoung ir would be similar to all mixers. an acoustic guitar straight in wwould be fine but an electric guitar would need to be amped and mic'd or use of a V-Amp like the beringer v-amp. or you could put an electric guitar straight in and use "guitar rig 3" in your computer software. but THE BEST quality is Always a good amp with a good mic.

  • @BlackAngusYoung

    You can plug a guitar directly into any mixer, but the signal would sound thin with out the amp. You can use a direct box, or the pre-amp output on an amp. Also a lot of software has amp modeling.

  • im thinking about buying the Behringer XENYX 1204 USB Mixer ... should i buy it or should i buy the Peavey PV 6 USB

  • monitor bus (bypassing the stereo mix) so you cant record, then playback and overdub - if you try and overdub, the record signal coming back via USB will always be routed back to the stereo out from which you are trying to record an overdub... so the stereo L/R USB SEND will always carry the USB playback signal making a playback loop... or have i got that wrong?

  • @dancetech I think you are corrent. I have only had my a week but I have found no way around that issue. Than is a serious problem for me and I would not have bought it if I would have known that. I hope that I am wrong on that but so far I think not.

  • YEA DO THEY WORK WITH REASON

  • @TheUndercoverplayer yes it works with Reason ( I tested Reason 4)

  • So, you can't multitrack on these USB mixers?

  • @CampaignGeetaur Hello.wouldnt multitracking be up to the studio your using?all you need to record is 1 channel,or are you talking about something else.

  • @CampaignGeetaur To do live simutanious mutlitracking you need a firewire mixer.

  • USB works nativly on mac and pc... how about linux support?

  • so if you enable 8 tracks and record with 8 mics, they will only be on one track?

  • So, the USB function is essentially a USB audio interface linked to the stereo Mix output with the addition of the stereo return going through also... so the USB comes into play really at the recording stage when the mix is 'right'?

    Behringer used to get a bit of criticism for the cross-talk on channels.... I take it this range of mixes has seen improvements in this area?

  • I love mine for sure. I got it to work in a application that most people would not understand..... And it works awesome

  • u better mention the price at the start cuz i hate watching good looking expensive music instruments

  • Does These Mixers Work With Reason?

  • can i trade in my old 1222 for the new 1222

    or get a discount on some other one like the 2222usb

  • awesome vid

  • a better walkthrue on these would be greatly appricated, been going thrue your website on these new products but still standing with a big questionmark above my head about some of these fetures.

    looking for a mixer that would be good to use for online broadcasting, podcasting and voice recording. any recomandations to help me on my way?

    been looking at the XENYX X1222USB and the XENYX X1832USB so far.

  • i want to ask a question:

    when u connect the mixer to the pc with usb do all the traccks go on different channels or do they go on the same channel?

  • That's what I'm wondering too

  • @BASTARDTimmy yea i wonder if they will answer me

  • @danny239 Hey guys - the USB audio is stereo mix out and stereo return. Not individual track information. Thanks for your interest!

  • @behringer , ok so how would i get each channel on the mixer to record on individual tracks...? (im recording on logic pro)

  • @behringer But if one person is recording all instruments, can the software be used for multi-track recording... if each instrument is recorded alone to the PC through the mixer?

  • @behringer Ahhhhhhh I tought it was individual track.... :( For recording drums, it's a must!

  • @behringer Do you do any mixers that will route audio to separate DAW tracks via USB?

  • @aikighost I think that would require a firewire interface. USB1.1/2.0 cannot do it but I am not sure about the new USB 3.0

  • @danny239 whoops! Looks like your question fell through the cracks back 9 months ago. :( Genuinely sorry about that. Just in case you didn't get your question answered, feel free to send us a direct message!

  • @danny239 No they do not. USB can only carry 2 channels simultaneous recording. In this cans everything going in to the mixer would be reduced to 2 channels, a left and a right. I own the X1622USB,

  • @danny239 The USB connection is a 2-channel stereo output. For multichannel, check out our new UFX1604!

  • @behringer will the ufx1604 work with ableton live 8 ?
