Was initially looking at the Mackie desk upon which this seems to be based, but went for the far cheaper Behringer version. Replaced a patch bay and was finally able to get everything connected in a useful way,I find the subgroups especially useful - for sending to samplers etc.The eq section and compressors sound good to my ears. Don't really use the onboard effects, but the 4 sends are very useful.Only downside is the documentation, and haven't found much more online. Most things are fairly straightforward though. Definitely recommend for more complex home studio setups, especially at the price.

Man liest oft das die Behringer Pulte Rauschen oder die Qualität der Eingänge schlecht ist.Das ist hier nicht der Fall...Dieses Pult hat einen sehr guten Sound, jetzt merke ich erst wie schrottig mein altes Yamaha war.Kein Rauschen und die Eingangskanäle geben den Sound subjektiv unverfälscht weiter.Der Kopfhörerverstärker hat richtig Dampf.Diese Austattung findet man sonst nirgends zu diesem Preis.Die Effekte sind brauchbar, alles funktioniert wie erwartet...die Routingmöglichkeiten sind der Wahnsinn.Ein exellentes Gerät zu einem Spottpreis...Da können sich einige Firmen was abschneiden!Es war leider enttäuschend das ich mal wieder ein Gerät aus einer Retoure bekommen habe. Ich müsste erst wieder eine Woche warten bis ich ein neues bekommen kann so habe ich es behalten. Scheint alles ok zu sein aber woanders gibt es Rabatt auf gebrauchte Sachen!

Works well so far. Will update if any issues occur

For those that are familiar with Behringer- the X series mixers, this is a top of the line fantastic audio mixer. I took a moment to submix other mixers into this main one and it is a beaut! I have 3 sub mixers of keys & drums going to this and it’s incredible how it responds. Direct connection to use as an audio interface took me by surprise as its ultra loud and I did not expect myself utilizing an external audio interface just to control the volume but it’s alright. There is only L/R as an audio interface. I would recommend a UMC-404HD and you’ll get more versatility that way. Thank you Behringer for a great mixer.

Hi myself I am Gangadhar, I am from South India. I had taken this mixer in 2016 from Amazon, they had imported from UK. Till date this is working perfectly, we use this mixer in our church.

I'm a huge fan of this Behringer mixer. I produce a daily radio show, create radio commercials, and do a lot of audio editing, and this mixer has served me well. It's got a ton of inputs, very flexible routing and four subs (2 stereo sub groups). The USB in/out is a nice bonus, but don't buy this thinking it will serve as an audio interface. If you need an audio interface, get an audio interface. If you need a good, flexible, well thought-out mixer that's also a very good value, get this.

My experience with Behringer boards begins in roughly 2001. I have used their boards of all sizes from the little X502 up to the Eurodesk-sized boards, and have personally owned five of them in that time. I have never had any problems with any of their products, and have always been happy with their performance. I've used them in live sound applications for theatrical productions, for some recording, and for live concerts. They offer numerous signal routing options which gives you a lot of flexibility.When I found myself playing rhythm guitar in a nine-piece band, I needed as many channels as possible in a rack-mountable board. This, to my knowledge, is the largest rack-mountable board made by Behringer. Each time I buy a new board of theirs, it's not because there is something wrong with the one I have, I simply need more channels or subgroups.I mounted this board directly into the top panel of my SKB case. I like that it has a light socket on the top although I was a little irritated that it didn't come with a gooseneck light. The USB recording functionality is cool, making this board worthy of being used in a recording application as well.I've always found the Behringer boards are sturdy and produce quality sound at a price much less than other brands of similar quality. I highly recommend this, and any other Behringer board that suits your requirements in size or the number of channels, subgroups, or any other parameter.

This is a great little mixer. It is clean and quiet with very good headroom. Back in the 1970s I used to build sound reinforcement mixers. The knobs on the ones I built cost more than this entire mixer does. It is quite a bargain. My only wish is that it had 100 mm faders instead of the short throw faders it comes with. Even so, they are very smooth and quite adequate for the job at hand.

野外のライブが多いので多少ホコリとか雨の時には、最高です、安いので。

There is not a lot bad you can say about this mixer. It has pretty much all the bells and whistles you could ask for, has tons of inputs, multiple aux sends, and direct outputs for just about everything.I use this mixer for my podcast, and I am using the aux sends to do mix-minus setups which I output to PCs and iOS devices running Skype via the microphone jack on the PC and iOS devices. This way with each Skype caller on their own mix, I can take the output of those individual Skype instance and run them as inputs into the mixer. I send both the stereo main mix to my Zoom H6 recorder and also the direct outputs for each input to the recorder as well on their own tracks, so I have both a pre-canned mix for my convenience and also individual track recordings in case I need to tweak something specific (a caller forgets to use the mute button, for example). I run a sub mix containing all inputs except my own voice, and send that to the headphone monitor, so I don't have to deal with hearing my own voice.The only minor negatives about this mixer are: 1) You can't configure input levels for the USB input (you must adjust them with the output level on the device that is using the mixer as an output device) 2) You can only route the main mix to the USB output. It would be nice if you could configure it to take one of the aux sends or one of the sub mixes. 3) Level indicators seem to be set for a really high output level. Even though my recorder is set to handle line level outputs, by the time the level indicators on the mixer register much of anything, the levels on the recorder are pinned to the max and clipping. Not ideal, but not difficult to deal with as I just go by the level indicators on the recorder instead.Those are only minor complaints though. Really this mixer can do just about anything you would want a mixer to do.

This is one the best purchases that I have made lately. The more that I use it the more I love it. It's extremely versatile. It works well as a live mixer and it has become my " Go To" board for recording. As a live board I use the sub mixes and fx busses but in the studio I use it primarily as an 8 in 8 out pre amp to feed a Focusrite Pro 40 that interfaces with ProTools 9.I will admit that I had my doubts about the "one knob" compression at first but it not only works, it works well.This is just one of many Behringer products that I own.

I have owned this Behringer XENYX X2442USB mixer for about 3 weeks now. I think, for the price, it is definitely a steal! I use it to record my drum practice at home. I use Shure PG mics, el-cheapo Radio Shack vocal mics, and I also connect my iPod and a CD player to it. My usage is not very sound-quality critical and does not involve travel/gigging either. Also, this is my first experience with professional mixers so my knowledge and experience is limited. First, built quality of this mixer is OK for my usage, but I would not describe it as rugged at all. The chasis (except for side panels) is entirely metal but of a light gage, and with plastic knobs sticking out from everywhere in the control surface I would think this thing would have to be handled with a lot of care if it were to be used for live gigs where constant travel is required. The side panels are made of soft-touch plastic and can be easily removed and replaced with included rack mount brackets which is how I set it up. This works just fine on a standard 19" rack. Functionally, everything works just fine and the sound is clean and warm. I should demystify the descriptons you see in advertising: this mixer has 10 mic ins, 8 of them have the full complement compressor and EQ functions, the remaining 2 (channels 9-10 and 11-12) are in a shared configuration of mic in OR stereo line in, do not offer compression, and the EQ has two fixed-frequency mid-range level controls instead of a parametric adjustable frequency/adjustable level controls. The remaining channels (13-14 and 15-16) are stereo line-level only. I have not found any hum or hissing on the headphone outs, main outs, control outs, RCA 2 TRK outs, nor USB digital out. The XLR mic ins, line TRS ins, RCA 2 TRK ins, and USB digital ins (the USB interface is bi-directional and stereo) work perfectly. I have not tested any of the inserts, direct outs, sub outs, or aux ins/outs yet. One feature which is only hinted to in the manual which initially confused me but later found to be good, is that the RCA 2 TRK outs will not output any signal that comes in from the RCA 2 TRK ins (event if 2-TRK/USB to MAIN toggle is engaged), and signals sent to the USB digital interface will return to the mixer (if echoed back by the recorder or whatever is connected to the mixer's USB interface) but can not be sent back via USB again. This is all to prevent a feedback loop. Also, the design of the unit seems pretty well thought out: I installed a goose neck light on the BNC light connector which turned out to be a defective light and the mixer heated up somewhat and shut itself down automatically after a while, so the mixer appears to have some protection functionality embedded that is not advertized. This happened a couple times and the mixer came out unharmed every time. A disadvantage I have encountered is that most of the push down toggle switches do not have an associated light to indicate they are engaged (only the solo, mute, and compressor switches/knobs do.) You have to visually determine this by looking at the switch or by pressing the button to figure out if it is already depressed or not, which is not always easy/convenient. I guess you can't have everything at this price level :-) The indicator lights for the compressor only flicker on/off when actual compression/limiting of peaks is taking place, so even when engaged, the light will not come on if the input signal is low level. This is not clear on the manual either. The integrated FX box works fine, however, you can not assign different effects to one channel vs another, you can only select one effect and apply it to zero, one or more of any of the input channels. Also, the main mix via any of the main analog outs and the USB interface is only one stereo channel. To output multiple stereo/mono channels simultaneously you have to use the direct outs (and set mix levels externally) and/or the sub outs. The USB interface does not support multi-channel output/input. The USB interface worked quite nicely with my iPad using the iPad USB adaptor that comes with the iPad camera connection kit and the Sudio Mini XL app which I use as an 8-track (non-simultaneous) digital recorder. All in all, I think I got an incredible amount of functionality and flexibility for my money and I am very satisfied with the results. I am still experimenting with the X2442USB but this has been my experience so far.
