[@YungTosti]

You sir are the first person to make a clear tutorial, you gave me so much knowledge, thank you so much for this amazing tutorial :)

[@Tnerdt1]

You're most welcome Tostibramkaas.

[@finn.hermansen]

This man (Chris) is fantastic. He has learnt me how to use The Behringer Xenyx X1204 USB with FX. He has also learnt me how to set it op for live radio broadcasting, and for internet broadcasting. An finaly he has shown me how to record from the mixer to for example Audacity. So now I can make radio 3 ways by using The Behringer Xenyx X1204 USB with FX - live radio, live internet radio and recording radio broadcasting, so that other radio stations can use my radioshows. Thank You so much Chris - It is a pleasure to get to know you

[@Tnerdt1]

Finn G. Hermansen Anytime Finn, It was fun getting to know you. I am so glad it all worked out and your radio show sounds amazing. Feel free to drop a link here in the comments for people to hear your show.

[@johnpike4586]

This may be the best instructional video I've ever watched. I went from being totally overwhelmed to quite confident in just 30 minutes.

[@datahound2u]

I realize it's a couple years old, but this video really helped me understand so many things audio-related. Great job!!

[@Tnerdt1]

+Michael O Thank you so much, I am glad the video was helpful .

[@RelateGREAT]

This is SOOOO helpful!!! I was totally lost how to bring in Google Hangouts and your method with Skype is perfect. I also just got this exact mixer today with zero knowledge how to use it, though had researched enough to know this was what I would need for my podcast. Your methods of explaining REALLY helped! Thanks tons, bro!!!

[@Tnerdt1]

Jonathan Sherman Any time, congratulations on your purchase and good luck with the podcast.

[@RickErwinMedia]

Hey Chris. Just watched your tutorial and wanted to stop by to say thank you. It really gave me a lot of knowledge on this mixer.

[@Tnerdt1]

Your most welcome Rick I appreciate the comment. I love doing the videos and its even better knowing I can help people.

[@aperturefilmstudios2352]

While you may think this may have been a very complicated and hard to follow tutorial video I must say it was a great video and we thank you for breaking it down in a way that makes us able to potentially learn more for each function. Great first video for me to use my Mixer Thanks

[@Tnerdt1]

+Aperture Film Studios You are most welcome, thank you for the kind words and for watching the video.

[@raddadradiohour3830]

Loved the in depth description of your set up, you can tell you are very passionate about what you do! Thank you!

[@Tnerdt1]

+Rad Dad Radio Hour Thanks for the kinds words and for watching my video.

[@orinocouk]

Brilliant video, thanks for taking half an hour out of your life to help budding podcasters! You da man!

[@Tnerdt1]

+Steve Chadwick Thank you so much for the kind words I really enjoy doing these videos and helping people out.

[@diegolara4202]

I just purchased a similar mix board to get started on my podcast. My setup will be similar to this. I will be using the built in USB interface and record on my HP laptop with the software included with the mixer.

[@NJLibertarian]

Thank you!!! I had been staring at the X1204 block diagram trying to figure this out. You saved me lots of time for my podcast!

[@Tnerdt1]

+NJ Libertarian Party You are most welcome, have a great time recording.

[@renaissancetomorrow4551]

Completely enjoyed your information, I have viewed quite a few videos on this product and you were very thorough on your connections, cable size, input/output and how you use the channel mix settings. Was a big hit for me. Thank you for your production!

[@Tnerdt1]

RenaissanceTomorrow No problem, thank you for watching the video and the kind words

[@SelomonOfficial]

Enjoyed your passion at the end when you said, "I'm going to keep doing them!" Yea man keep doing them! You get that passion and motivation! Spread it around as well. God knows we could all use some of that!

[@Tnerdt1]

+Christopher Selomon Classon Thank you, I hope to motivate people to do great things in time. Funny I just went back to view this video and what a difference between then and my newer stuff. Amazing how things get better and we learn more as we go. Thanks again for your kind words and checking out the video.

[@henryvaiotu230]

Thanks TNT for sharing this tutorial for us dummies,..this video is explained in simple terms and i was keen on buying other console mixers but alot of them don't have one knob compressor knobs and if they did the mixer console would have knobs, not fader channels.. and they were'nt selling it at the price of this mixer here... the 1204fx console has a pack load of features at a affordable price..

[@kevinmagee8437]

Thanks for this. I've had this mixer for a while and learned some things. It might be more helpful to refer to the audio going to the "auxiliary out" jack rather than the "Skype channel" because it goes to wherever you send that "aux out" cable. And maybe give an explanation of what mix minus is. Anytime you're looking at a news cast and a few seconds into the live on-scene report, and the reporter yanks the earpiece out, it's because the mix-minus wasn't set up correctly and the reporter is hearing him or herself back a second or two later. It couldn't be more distracting. Very nice job, though, and I'm happy I stumbled into this.

[@Prawnchowmein]

Awesome teacher great explanation great video watching all the way from London uk

[@Tnerdt1]

+Prawnchowmein Thank you so much for checking out the video, I am glad it was helpful.

[@robertorosales2022]

Hey, even when it's been a while since you made this tutorial I have found it so useful and I do thank you for all the info

[@coreylavender6894]

very good tutorial. Excellent, you explain things very well.

[@Tnerdt1]

+Corey Lavender Thank you very much.

[@samfielding2659]

Very clear! I've watched a few videos and got confused when looking to set up my mixer properly. I found it interesting how you use a XRL to 3.5mm to connect Skype to the Mixer. This is something I might look at in the future as at the moment I use 2x 1/4 cables to 3.5mm which is inserted into my mobile phone. I look forward to watching more of your tutorials. Thank you! :-)

[@Tnerdt1]

I am glad my video helped you, I plan on doing some more audio and video tutorials soon.

[@arlvirg]

Nice tutorial, very helpful. My problem is I only have Macs. Macs only have 1 audio interface, 1/8" in and out. How do I do mix minus with only 1 interface? The skype laptop will input into one of the channels (e.g., 1/8" to 1/4"), then there's no room for the aux back in to the laptop.

[@TheAtticradio]

Loved all the info in-depth and everything else. Thanks so much - love the passion !! Paulo

[@jaynic7116]

Just one word. EXCELLENT.

[@ronrogers2]

This is excellent. Clear and concise.

[@Tnerdt1]

+Ron Rogers thank you so much, I have had bad comments about this video in the past so it's nice to hear some good for a change. This was one of my first videos I remember how nervous and awkward I felt recording.

[@argbargmcticktock]

Love that IKEA Dave stand. I've got the same one, with the same mixer on top of it!

[@T0FFE]

This was a really helpful video. I'll be getting a 1204 as a starting mixer and I'm certain that this video will be of great use to me. Thank you for the great upload :)

[@kbirch50]

Incredibly helpful video, many thanks!

[@Tnerdt1]

+Mammoth EU You are most welcome

[@5speed735i]

I realize this video is now 6 years old but I would like to add some advice- if you have this board with the "FX" ability, do not ignore it! By rolling up the second knob from the bottom (labeled FX), you can add a little delay/reverb, which adds a little perceived space to the sound- which should not be overlooked. With a little delay/reverb in the mix, it seems less like someone is talking directly into your ear, thereby making the listener feel a little less creeped out. But if you like to project what some feel is a cozy/close sound then disregard my suggestion.

[@familybankbusiness]

Thanks for the great breakdown. My mixer is just collecting dust, still can't figure it out for what it's worth. How can I interface with Premiere Pro on my PC? My iMac is older.

[@kathygerulaitis]

Wouldn't it be great if he would show where the speaker cables plug into the unit?

[@allanegleston13]

there is a grageband for windows version . audacity works accross all platforms.

[@Tnerdt1]

+allan egleston Awesome thank you

[@created1983]

you have to physically "tap" the effects button to make a selection . i just found that out playing with my behringer . it says "tap" above the "program / parameter" dial . some of the effects make kind of "echo / reverb" noises . you ALSO use the "ORANGE" dials to send the effect to the main mix , i'm pretty sure .

[@rowdytxn2000]

Brilliant idea using the 4th mic channel for the Skype audio! I'm changing my setup to utilize this!

[@Tnerdt1]

+rowdytxn2000 Thank you, I still use this setup today. I really need to make a updated version of this video.

[@photographerseye548]

Please do! I think I'm ready to start vlogging. got the set up working, thanks to your video. Now I need a good name.

[@djemann]

You're guide is very informative. What does the 1/4 aux out connect to? Thanks.

[@Tnerdt1]

Thank you, The 1/4 aux is connected to my laptops mic input. I use it to create a mix minus for my Skype calls

[@djmikeyblair4650]

Nevermind, my question is answered here. Thank u

[@jordanWAH]

Instead of using your phones to an input, why don't you use aux/fx send to return? This would allow you to run send to fx pedals or a compressor if you want and back to return in stereo or mono. Just curious. Send and return is what I like in a mixer and I was looking at this one on reverb for like $150.

[@girlinagale]

1204 has two independent aux sends/returns, does this mean I can put a compressor in the aux 1 bus and a reverb in aux 2 bus, and choose to send any channel through one or both fx? With an FX send level for 1 and 2?

[@ChipperNicodemus]

Super helpful video. Thanks for posting! I just got this mixer for my podcast. Have you thought about replacing your PC w/ an iPad app that has a sound effect machine? What app do you currently use for your effects? Cheers

[@Tnerdt1]

+Chipper Nicodemus Thank you for watching the video and for the suggestion and question. When I first started podcasting my goal was to do it with as little hardware as possible. I wanted to just use a laptop and iPad, that would have worked had I not gone crazy and decided to do other things that required more horse power. Because I use my iMac to record and do the sound effects I use an app called Sound board its not the best but it works. Thanks to having a mixer I can hook almost anything up to it. So I can still use my iPad as a sound board or I can get an actual soundboard the sky is the limit, ok ... also budget lol. If you have any more questions or comments Nicodemus hit me up.

[@TheChronic1976]

very imformative will soon be getting this mixer

[@cutman3522]

Hello can you use this to play music and record it straight through with the EQ into your computer and get the sound effect that you are using

[@ivanremus1]

Hello. Great video! I have a question, how can I connect my Behringer Xenyx 1204 USB mixer to my Behringer MDX 4600 gate/compressor? I'm open to suggestions... (for my podcast and it should include a mix minus also, but explained perfectly ). Thank you in advance for your answer.

[@Tnerdt1]

Thank you for the question and watching the video. This mixer is not really meant to use an external gate limiter. The mixer in the video has built in compression knobs. These are not the best in the world but they do an ok job considering the price of this mixer. In order to use an external gate limiter you need a mixer that has line inputs. they are usually 1/4 inputs just under the XLR mic input per channel or they are on the back like on some Mackie mixers.

[@djfishscottfisher108]

Control Room output for my booth monitor. For some reason if I use an effect on any channel, I cant here the effect through my Phones/Control Room Monitor output. I can hear everything except the effects. I could use the tape output but theres no control over the volume. Ive tried everything. Mono/Stereo plugs, Main mix button pressed others off and visa versa. Any help would be great. Thanks

[@kundi13]

Hi ...great video explained. I have xenyx 1832usb fx however...how do i use the fxs on my line 1 channel? Thanks

[@Tnerdt1]

sandeep kundi Make sure you have something plugged into the FX output. Now very similar to how I use the Aux output is how you would use the FX. Think of the Aux and FX as the same except you can add some sound effects to the FX out. If you need more help hit me up

[@jobyjoseph1984]

Hi Chris,I have bought xenyx x1204b usb newly.Could you please tell me why the green indicator near to tap button is blinking? Thank you

[@jamesday8901]

Loved the video. Just bought it. Have a stupid question, instead of sound effects for ch 7/8 can I use it for music in and music out? If possible let me know what I would connect it to. I've got three laptops. Thanks and have a great one.

[@Tnerdt1]

James Day Thank you for watching the video and for the purchase. When using CH 7/8 you could connect a iPad using the proper cables. Not to mention lap top pc or pretty much anything as a input. Just keep in mind CH 7/8 are audio input channels, if you wanted to have another mix minus you would have to use the fx out similar to using the Aux out. There are so many audio options when using a mixer its hard to actually list them all.

[@comunidadfolkperu]

You know how I can make the connection of the mixer with the sam broadcaster for live radio

[@medicareLady]

Excellent tutorial! I got the "wanna podcast" last year with my husband. We are working on our own little diddy and I'm learning FROM ZERO about it. I got the Behringer Xenyx 1204 USB and followed the instructions to set up...but your video went over the details so well MUCH better than any other I've seen. Thanks for that. I am stumped on a few parts: I need to connect up my iMac to the mixer. I know you have a split. I don't know what that is or what to call it when I go into Radio Shack and ask for it. I have a second microphone (which my husband and I will speak together on jaw jacking). Where does his headphone plug in? I am using audacity to record. I have Garage Band but don't know anything about it. Have you ever used Audacity? I've only practiced recording (just mic to the computer, no mix board between). Right now I am missing some connection because I cannot hear anything in my headphones despite having the mixer plugged into my computer. Forgive my ignorance - I'm seriously brand new. Like MINUTES new.

[@Tnerdt1]

+Sarita Shoemaker Thank you for your kind words. I think it's great you want to record a podcast with your husband. I can help ya to get started. Just email me your questions [e-mail] I look forward to helping you.

[@Tnerdt1]

+Sarita Shoemaker If you still need my assistants email me. It will be a lot easier that way. [e-mail]

[@xTimx2002]

Thank you for the video! i was hoping you would have went behind the Mixer and explain the USB portion of the mixer. is there much of a difference when using the USB function? or is it not needed?

[@gm2124]

Hi Chris. Just have one more question. In the video, you use a 3.5mm to XLR cable for Skype, not a 3.5mm to mono jacks. Could you tell me more about the different between them? Thanks

[@Tnerdt1]

Max Zhang No problem, I used this connection type so I could get Skype to come into a mic input that has the built in compression. I had tried using a 3.5mm to 1/4 but the sound was not as good, could have been a cheap cable. Having the cable connected on a channel with compression can help with audio quality, cuts out clipping. As a side note I do use software for the post show to adjust preseved audio levels.

[@gm2124]

Total Nerd Takeover thanks a lot

[@Tnerdt1]

No problem Max

[@utubehound69]

You should do a tut on running a G+ , YT or live-stream ,/ hangouts / super-chat…. I see so many ppl having issues w/the audio & the screen sharing…. doing these I just got this one minus the FX's. I have a good interface that has inserts USB I got the mixer to do some looping petals & other instrument into a powered speaker for drums & bass loops on the out put of the Trio petal as well as the sDrum petal w/a guitar amp combo for stringed instruments. As well as a small set up for jams w/other musicians. But this gave me a whole other application for the mixer. Great job. I'd love to see any tuts on running the live streams like a Live Podcast I suppose w/the YT G+ interface it would be well received I believe & much needed. I'm on a mac. I was just thinking it might not be that hard to take that 1/4" input on Chn 1 & make it an insert jack. I have a buddy that is an audio gear guru he'd know if it could be done easily.

[@WallStreet749]

Why do you need a USB mixer if you can do recordings with just a USB microphone? Im confused. Can a USB microphone be used if your mixing board isnt USB

[@jeff-smith]

Can you explain that auxiliary plug please? You only say you need it for the skype split, but you don't say where the other end of the cable goes to? Much appreciated, Jeff

[@gaelicamericancraic1816]

Nicely done mate.

[@ArchangelKid]

So the mixer is like another audio card added via usb cable? & does it replace the voice metter totally? if so that"s a greate device.

[@SuperMercenary1]

What are all of the cables you will need for this mixer? Example: XLR cables, red-white cables, converters, ect?

[@Tnerdt1]

Thats tricky, how many mics will you be using? will you be connecting iPhone to iPad? Maybe some other type of smartphone? Ant musical equipment? How about a laptop you use for Skype cohosts? The most used cables on my current set up are XLR and balanced 1/4 break out and regular cables.

[@lipfunction]

my only gripe with this mixer is that when using the headphones and clicking in the red usb button to hear on them, it introduces alot of noise

[@chrisboyd7015]

what is the best setting for singing thanks

[@Craf7y]

That is clear and educating.

[@covenantchristianisraelite3069]

GReat VIdeo, little confusing when you use , my Imac , the Skype machine and computer. I take it they are all one in the same machine. This is all new to me.

[@marcod3080]

Very interesting and clear told. I have one question. Do you use the phantom power for your XLR mic channels? If you do, how does dit effect the input on channel 4 comming from de headphone output of your laptop?

[@vecchiuz2143]

I have a mixer behringer qx1002usb, can i use a headphones with 250 ohm, or is it better to use a headphones whit 80 ohm???

[@didanvdo]

Well done!

[@Tnerdt1]

+David Brockett Thank you very much

[@llyweiluntunare2232]

Hi There, i know its an old video but i got a question regarding the Phantom power. If i understood you correctly you used the headphone out of the skype machine (where the audio is comming out) to go into the XLR connector on Port 4. Your microphone is connected to XLR on port on. I would like to copy that set up( got the cord here), but i am stumped right now. My mic needs phantom power. Will the phantom power not "fry" the headphone jack on the laptop - as it is connected to an XLR port. Thanks in advance.

[@2mt2mt2mt]

Where the auxiliary out goes to ? into the Skype machine's mic Jack ? And thanks a lot for this great tutorial.

[@Tnerdt1]

Thank you Afshin for checking out the video. To answer your question, I have the Skype mic Lin connected to the aux out. That port is located on the top row towards the right. Life you have any other questions hit me up.

[@Tnerdt1]

afshin hootan You are most welcome sorry for the slow response. The Aux line coming off the mixer goes into the Skype machine's mic in. This way you can set up a mix minus.

[@acceptablenorm5465]

I am using a virtual audio cable which, I know, you said that you don't like; but I have no idea how to use it or work around it. Please let me know if you ever put out a video on my mixer or if your sister does. I can use all the help I can get. Thanks Again. Lonney Smith

[@Tnerdt1]

If you need extra help go ahead and email me [e-mail] I will do what I can to help you. Never give up, creating podcasts and online content is so rewarding.

[@GIALONA46]

Thank you so much for getting back to me. I have been trying Audacity but someone told me to switch to Reaper.fm. now I have two programs that I can't get to work; maybe it is my wiring. I will email you and send a couple of photos of my set up in hopes you can find my errors. Lonney

[@carlislebaker-jackson9554]

Hi, Really helpful video, this has definitely helped clear up some questions I was having! I've purchased a similar mixer for use for a 3 person podcast. I've seen headphone amps that enable all those involved during recording to hear themselves. Are these the only option? If so how do I connect it to the mixer? TIA

[@TheAudioDabbler]

Great video on this mixer. I was thinking about doing some youtube live videos for live music performance and some live question driven tutorials. This mixer seems like a good fit. I also shared this with a buddy who as a x1222usb and wants to do some podcasting. This should help him out a lot as well.

[@KurtFuller]

Hi I´m singer on a band and I´m considering purchase this mixer for the rehearsal. I will use it for the voices and the synths and I´d like to know how good/bad quality is this. Are the compresors and FX good enough? Are the preamp mics loud enough and very noisy (ssshhh!!) at half/top volume? Thanks

Thanks for replying, man! Highly appreciated. Currently I am also trying to change my setup a bit so that I can use some audio samples (bloopers) into my youtube videos (let's plays), especially when I am gaming with others but also for my podcasts. So I wish to hear these and my voice and my coop-partners should also. I wish to get this running with only 1 laptop (2 monitors) though and have troubles with the latency when hearing myself. Do you know about any software solution to get rid of this delay? I am using a Pronomic M-502, so a very basic mix table, as well as a XLR-microphone. Just want to give it a try asking you as maybe you found some solution over the year;) Buying a new mix table shouldn't be a problem but it shouldn't be too expensive.

[@Tnerdt1]

+Barrett Prime well I have mine hooked up with the USB as and audio input. I then use my 3.5 headphone jack as an audio output that plugs into channels 5and 6 using a cable that 3.5mm to stereo 1/4 jacks. If you need more details you can email me at [e-mail] easier that way.

[@wilburmcbeezy6299]

Awesome video. It really helped clarify a few things for me. I did have a couple questions. First off on your Auxillary Output - what type of cable did you use? Is that a 1/4 mono to 3.5mm mono? Can you use the 2nd Auxillary Output to send to another source just like the 1st output is used? Thanks in advance! Great job!

[@CedricJamesLucas]

Where do you connect the auxiliary jack to?

[@akinderreality]

are you recording directly using the mixer in this video - most USB mixers have unacceptable noise-levels, but this sounds pretty clean

[@Tnerdt1]

+akinderreality Great question, Yes I am recording directly into the mixer. One thing I was surprised about with this mixer is how clean the audio is.

[@KevinSmith-nn9yw]

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, hear the song using my closeback headphones and then sing 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

+Kevin Smith So let me understand this to best advise you. You have 1 computer that will be playing the music and recording your while you sing? You will be sending the audio out of your PC to the mixer from a speaker out port , that plugs into a audio input on the mixer? like channel 3 for example? You will be pushing your voice from the mixer USB out to the computer USB in? You want to play music on the PC have it go into the mixer so you can hear it through the headphones? This way you can sing the song and have your voice recorded? Do you want the music recorded also?

+Total Nerd Takeover Hi...let me try to answer your queries one at a time... 1. I have 1 laptop and I am using audacity software on it. I have got karaoke mp3 which I can import as track 1 in audacity and 2. I have a headphone connected to mixer so that I can hear the karaoke mp3 which is played on laptop and audio input on the mixer is heard via the headphones connected to mixer (I dont have speakers connected to mixer just have the headphone) 3. I have connected my condenser mic to channel 1 on mixer and yes I want to send my voice from mixer to laptop via USB 4. Yes I want to play music on PC and have it go to mixer so I can hear on headphone so that I can sing and have my vocal recorded. I already have a karaoke mp3 so dont need to record the music. However, once I apply all effects to my vocal track then eventually I would like to mix the music (karaoke) track and my vocal track to have an overall track of my vocal with music. Hope that made sense

Awesome video! Thank you so much! However, i still have this doubt, i hope you can help me: 1. I would like to have Channel 1 for my mic; and then have 2 separate channels to play music (let's call it deck A - that would be assigned to Channel 2 - and deck B - that would be assigned to Channel 3). I don't have any CDJ, so my music is in my laptop, but I don't know if it's possible to assign via software, deck A (in Traktor, for example) to Channel 2 (in the mixer) and deck B (in Traktor too) to Channel 3 (in the mixer). That would allow me to "simulate" live radio, using a channel to control one deck, and the other channel to control the other deck, while loading the music in the software! Is it possible? Thank you!
