Behringer XENYX X1204USB – 12-Input USB Audio Mixer with Effects

The Behringer XENYX X1204USB – 12-Input USB Audio Mixer with Effects is a 12-input audio mixer with an integrated USB computer audio interface. It enables you to mix and shape the sound of multiple audio signals and route the audio to several outputs. Special attention has been paid to the quality of the X1204USB’s 4 microphone preamps, “British” style EQ, and 4 easy-to-use one-knob compressors.

The Behringer XENYX X1204USB provides four mono channels and two stereo channels, making it ideal for smaller jobs. There are two aux sends on each mono channel (which enable you to route individual channels to stage monitors or external effects), and two stereo aux returns. The built-in USB interface allows for a bi-directional transfer of audio to and from your computer.

The built-in 24-bit dual engine effects processor features 16 presets that include, reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, pitch shifter, and multi-effects. You can edit the parameters of every preset, and a tap tempo button is included to sync time-based effects. The 4 built-in compressors are designed to simplify the process of controlling dynamics in your mix. With a single knob, you can dial in the amount of compression you need for any given sound. Individual compressors are a feature rarely seen in mixing boards in this price range. The 4 XENYX preamps offer 130 dB of dynamic range, and the 3-band “British” style EQs really allow you to create a fine-tuned mix. The XENYX X1204USB is well-suited for recording studios, video editing suites, live sound mixing, podcasting, and more.
