Just managed to pick up one of these, with no instruction manual, for a bargain basement price that needed a few minor repairs but seems to be working fine now. Thanks for the breakdown of this model, it helped clear up some confusion for me.

Nice explanation Elias. I was Radio DJ.after I left I started singing. When I was on radio studio everything was ready to use so no clue what so ever.I bought Behringer X2222USB Xenyx. Before this I had small mixer start with to get used to with the connections. I loved it some connection I could not understand,but watching you video made it so clear. Thanks Elias. Only one advice to you speak little loud or turn your audio volume up. Your video are so great well explained and fantastic. keep doing good job with louder voice. enjoyed very much Can not wait for your next video Thanks Elias

you can use this mixer with any music software, it connects via usb with a built in audio usb interface that logic and other software will pick up and use as your main sound card. Just go into your logic settings and choose it as your main audio output and input.

@EliasGadgets 10 жыл бұрын
Carlo Duterte Hey, sorry for late reply been full on busy.. but its really easy.. say you have a flat vocal that is plain and dry.. that is when you would add some compression and if it doesn't make much difference to the vocal or bring it some life that I would add some limiter which the mixer doesn't really have but it tend to do the same task and liven up the dry vocal in which you could further add fx or maybe play with the EQ's. Remember, you do not want it fully up or too loud, do it slow and listen to your overall mix and balance it with the song.

It should work straight away or you should be able to go into pro tools settings and put your output and input to the mixer. If you can't see the mixer driver it's because you have not installed it, so make sure you install the mixers driver provided on the cd that comes with your mixer. Go to pro tools set-up- peripherals- midi controllers - type and select your install driver of the mixer. After you found it than go to "receive from" option, select input 1 and than go to "send to" option....

ok, so i'm trying to put a rode videomic into this which has a 3.5mm jack on it, so i've bought a 6.35mm adapter, and it didn't work. I bought a few other adapters, non worked. I discovered that it works if you pull out the 6.35mm jack a little bit. But it's not just one input, it's like this on every single input on this mixer. WTF? I thought it might be because they were stereo adapter, so i then went out and bought some mono adapters, and still the same problem. I've got a behringer HA400 headphone microamp which i wanted to put 4 pairs sennheiser hd400s headphones into and same again you need to pull the headphone jacks out a little bit, but this time out of the adapters a little bit. The videomic and all the headphones work absolutely fine on other products, Is this a known issue with behringer products?

I noticed you haven't mentioned the Left Right selectors located directly above the sub 1 and 2 faders I've been trying to look for specific functions of these buttons. Do they enable instrument/vocal connected to the stereo channels to be routed either left or right by turning the Pan or Balance knobs?
@EliasGadgets
@EliasGadgets 10 жыл бұрын
Sorry for late reply but yes they do along with the subs 1-2 etc , I explained it to Tracey C below a bit.. but the Pans or balance knobs are not the main controls but rather the faders of the subs 1-2 and you would decide from the sub 1-2 section where you have the left and right.. where you would like to route the channels etc. I didn't really cover it as it was a little complex and plus I was going to replace the mixer for a digital board mixer the Presonus 16.0.2

What you hear in the mains/headphones/monitors doesn't record to pro tools via usb. The mixers usb codec seems to piggyback the computer built-ins. Disable/mute built-in mic/speakers, in computer default, and you get nothing to, or from, the codec audio usb mixer. 2in 0-out to record, 2out 0-in to playback is the codec this mixer has to offer, but seems to default to 1in2out computer default,(normally used as default for computer sounds via built-in speakers, and built-in mic, recording to computer default sounds, to make up your own, computer default sounds, via the built-in mic). The only thing Pro tools recorded was the built-in mic while I was monitoring headphone/Mains/ monitors/ and all meters, thru Pro tools mix windows, and the mixers idiot lights. But playback after switching to 0in 2out usb audio codec the recorded session was anything but the analog mix to digital usb codec audio I assumed I was recording digitally thru this interface via usb but apparently the signal sent to Pro tools recording was the built ins of the usb device codec this interface was actually sending less anything that resembled what i, the mixer, and the software were metering, monitoring and hearing.

I'm using ProTools 10, any insight about set up Also my current studio speakers are connected with 3.5 mm. Do I use an adaptor (XLR) for this set up
@EliasGadgets
@EliasGadgets 10 жыл бұрын
ProTools 10 should be straight forward once you have installed the files for your sound card if on windows or once connected to your mac which doesn't need any installation. Pro tools should see your mixer by you going into the set-up preference and selecting the input and output as the mixer. You can use an adaptor or you could get a 3.5mm / 1/4 cable which you can use to connect in the mixers output with the 1/4 end and the 3.5mm into your speaks, depends on what your speakers are and how you have your set-up but I would need more details. I would advise you also check out my last video on this mixer "Behringer X1622USB Q&A" and also "Connecting KRK Rokits", they would have various indications of connecting speakers, the mixer and other stuff.

@EliasGadgets
@EliasGadgets 8 жыл бұрын
+pradeep regime - thank you. Depends on what effects you want to obtain, all i can do is tell you the difference in simple term of each for you to truly understand each effect and you decide which one is best for you. Overall to be honest, they are all Echoes, its just each one reflects or produces the effect differently. 1. Echo effect - is exactly what the wording is. You will do your karaoke and the effect will cause a delay of your sound. Your in a tunnel, you shout or sing and after a few seconds, the sound will repeat back. it's ok but so so, i find it best with sound rather than singing. 2. Reverb 1 - I think this one is best for Karaoke because it actually changes your voice and will create a depth in your voice. 3. Reverb 2 - Similar to the above but this one, not only changes your voice but applies it in various environments, be it a hall, studio, room etc. I would like you to also consider using a bit of both effects maybe.

Hello everyone...I have purchased a Xenyx X1204USB model from Behringer... I have connected the USB cable from mixer to my laptop.... I havent bought speakers yet but I do have Sony MDR 7506 headphones that I will be using... basically I am a newbie in this field and all I want is to play a karaoke track on my laptop or iphone, listen it on my headphone while I sing along using my condenser mic and record the music along with my voice directly into the laptop and then apply all effects... This may be a very basic question for all the experts here but how can I accomplish what I am looking for
@okidot
@okidot 8 жыл бұрын
Its basic, but not very straight forward. You need to have audio out from your computer going into mixer, and then create an auxillary mix to send to your headphones to hear the music for singing along to. You then need to connect your mic to another channel and send that to your main mix out on the mixer. In order to then record your vocals, you need to connect your audio out on the mixer into a recording device input (soundcard etc) on the computer. If you are new to equipment, this defo isn't so straight forward without having some help!

A audio interface would make your life much easier and direct in this situation and less complex. Your connection is alright but an audio interface connection would be better but it makes no sense to have this and a audio interface together, your better off getting an audio interface to connect you set instead of having to connect the audio interface via usb going into your pc and than connect the mixer 1202x into the audio interface.. it's really down to you but either way it all works ok.

@EliasGadgets 9 жыл бұрын
+PassAndGoAway - Yes it is a good home studio set-up and one of the most used mixer. The only problem with this mixer is when it comes down to do multitrack recording which it can't if you want to record more than 2 instruments to it. But if you don't into to record more than two at the same time its a great mixer and better than the focusrite 214 in the sense that you get more connection features and lots of built in effects etc. In my opinion i think the focusrite is great and straight forward to connect your gear for a home producer or dj and the behringer mixer is more suited for a band or if you have lots of keyboards synth and a few guitars like me.

Dude thanks for the video you've just saved me a headache of difficultie XD I couldn't work out why the channel feeds weren't coming through my computer or why the desk wouldn't pick up the computer audio when selected as an audio device, they didn't send me any installation disks. Is it possible to download the software online? Also i'm guessing your using the X2222? It looks exactly the same as what I have

Hello, I am a real beginner here! I have decided to help my boyfriend's band by offering to be the sound girl. He has a Xenyx 2442usb and I have watched many tutorials but am still learning. This is just for playing and not recording. His five piece band only has two instruments hooked up to the board (an acoustic guitar and a mandolin) the rest all vocals. It would be nice if they all hooked up so I could have a little more control with the sound, but for now this is it. The "low-cut" option by the gain knob, what does that do exactly? I don't really notice a difference when I click on it. Did you say something about helping cut background noise? I didn't quite make that out at the end of your vid. Thanks Tracey

Hi Tracey, The low cut button would be best suited for all mic vocals application only. it take out any thumps or rumble out of live sounds, makes the sound vocal deep and clear, it would also minimizing any popping. yes you will notice that it doesn't have any audible effect but that is because you may not be on a stage where the environment layout itself with everything connected with cause a lot of distortions and that low-cut filter would come on handy to cut them out. Try for example playing a drum bass which will have some wobble or distortion and than press the low cut and see the difference, or maybe a male with deep voice. The Xenyx mixers ranges are really only for handling or like your said playing all gear rather than recording in mind.

Tracey C Thank you for the low cut info. Very helpful. I was also wondering about the compression knob. Can't seem to find much info on it. What does it exactly do? Not sure if I notice much difference when playing with it. In the manual it says when the red led light comes on you know its engaged. Do you use this more for vocals or instruments or both? Look forward to your help. ;)

Tracey C Hey Tracey, I would normally use the compressors on both vocals and instruments when I would want to make the sound louder. If you put it on and turn the knob on the channel it will give your sound a punch, make it sound loud without overloading everything like you would do when you would either put the gains up on a channel. Say for example I have my final song, and my vocals was to low or unbalance, I would add compression to bring it in line with the rest of the tracks and it will never be too loud but just right as compression tends to also lower over powered frequency of the sound and make it more soft. What I mean by more soft is compressor can also have the opposite effect and where you have a song that is too loud, it can compress the loud sounds. Hopefully that makes sense :)

Elias Khan Thank you again soooo much! I truly appreciate the detail you go in to for helping me understand. I realize these sound boards can make a band sound great or pretty bad. They really take patience, time and a good ear to achieve the sound you're looking for. I know I will have more questions for you and look forward to your advice! Thanks again!

You probably should have said the main outputs can go to "powered" speakers or the PA input, or use control room to powered speakers if you are in a different room.

Elias, Great tutorial. I appreciate you taking the time to help people like myself understand the technology that's out there. My question is can you recommend a good but inexpensive mixer that you can record on multiple channels? I just bought this one but didn't realize you can only record on track. Thanks again.

Scott Belzer Thank you, not really a cheap options for multiple recording on all channels, the cheap way is to just get a audio interface or look at a firewire mixer but again, not cheap and it depends on your budget but they normal start from £500 upwards am afraid.

The main output in front are unbalanced, it's only the back main out XLR is balance. All other connection on the back including the sub 1-2, inserts and control room is unbalanced.

Can anyone help me? ahaha I'm a COMPLETE beginner to recording audio and all I'm trying to do is record drumset parts. Literally all I need is recordings of the mics on my kit to go to my PC... I have this x2222usb but I have no idea how to use it. The mics are picking up and the red light shows on the interface, but no sound is going into my pc. I have it plugged into the USB, is there anything else I need?

I'm trying to reach someone to help me register the Xenyx Q1202USB that I just ordered through the mail. I have not been able to register it. The online registration form requires a proof of puchase file upload. What type or file is expected? Why would I have a file to show proof of purchase? I chose this product because of the software that is supposed to come with it, but I can't access the software until I register the product.

Strange, I didn't have to do this when I brought mine? All i did was put the registered number or serial number on the mixer. Have you tried emailing them and provide your hardware number and things like that?

I really hope you don't plug your USB cables into your CPU. That would be kind of bad. But all things considered, the tutorial is quite good. You just gotta work on your Mic positioning or simply speak up.

You are wrong about needing drivers for Windows. It will work without them just like your iMac. In fact Windows acts just like your iMac. If you are at 0db or unity on the audio board it will be way to strong of a signal in the recording software. Just like your iMac I can only get it at about -10db on the audio board but in the software it will be at 0db. I think that is just USB protocol. You would think 0db on the audio board would equal 0db in the computer software but that does not seem to be the case on Mac or PC. Your videos seem decent.
