Behringer XENYX Q1204USB Compact Analog USB Mixer - Secondhand

Full Description

Sublimely musical, British EQ

British mixing consoles have long been known for their analog warmth and overall quality recordings. Based on these vintage mixing consoles, Behringer have incorporated the same style circuitry on the channel EQ. This results in incredibly warm and detailed audio, delivering rich sonic qualities associated with the old British mixing consoles.

Sonically superior preamps

The XENYX mic preamps incorporated in the Behringer Q1204USB mixer are renowned for their sonic performance, high quality and outstanding clarity. Offering an impressive 130 dB of dynamic range and a bandwidth that ranges from below 10 Hz to above 200 kHz, the XENYX preamps deliver high level outputs with a focus on clarity and power. The XENYX preamps are ideal for studio recording and live purposes, giving you an array of recording possibilities while maintaining the rich sonic qualities required for professional audio.

Recording bliss

There was a time when the recording process called for lots and lots of expensive gear, which meant the average musician had to buy time at a recording studio - and that time was pricey indeed. But modern technology has put personal recording well within the reach of virtually anyone with access to a computer. How do you get all that music flying around your brain into your computer? That's where XENYX USB mixers come in. Thanks to the built-in, bi-directional stereo USB audio interface, you can connect the Behringer Q1204USB mixer directly to your PC or Mac computer via a single USB cable. Now any signal source you connect to the mixer can be recorded directly to your hard drive.

One-knob compression

The ''one-knob'' compression function is available on all mono channels and allows you to dial in the perfect amount of compression for both instruments and vocals. Delivering powerful mixes with punch and clarity, the ''one-knob'' compression is easy to operate and a rare feature for mixers within this price range.

Create an affordable microphone syste

Another unique and innovative feature of the Q1204USB is the wireless-ready design. This allows you to easily connect the mixer to Behringer's digital wireless microphones (not included). The USB connector on the top of the mixing console is designed to accommodate the 2.4GHz wireless receiver dongle that comes supplied with Behringer's wireless microphone sets.

Eliminate the need for excess cables. Simply purchase the ULM300USB or ULM202USB and create the perfect single or dual wireless handheld microphone system for an affordable price.
