type 4 track analog mixer with 3-band equalizer and volume independent ... I do not dwell on it, or read below to see manufacturer's website, I find it just okay!

UTILIZATION

quite easy to use because it is very intuitive, the manual is useful reading for those who do not know anything and mixing table, it is short and clear!
everything is there but at the same time you are not in front of a 24 track automated either LOL!

SOUNDS

the sound quality is slightly colored by the console I find, and the equalizer to change the sound significantly. The breath is variable, it depends on the gain came from track 1 and 2 as well as the quality of the electrical network of the room .... hehehe and yes I can already say that the result is not a multiple of super level wind but ... I found the sound good considering the price of the vehicle!

OVERALL OPINION

I have 7 years and she was very helpful, I am always satisfied aillor because I always use and it is the only one I bought!
She is in my group to save our repeat track 1 shure sm57 home simply taking a total catch of the battery, and the other three tracks are the guitars, that's all! It was connected to the line input of my laptop, it was of aillor volume settings easily and made to study our pieces is very good!
Certe, it lacks some connectivity and function, but the price would have been different! Plus, I can say that it is sturdy and not bulky, they are positive I think ... bought € 60, I make the choice if I loose because I find the price / quality ratio very good!

1 post fader send per channel
6 balance line inputs
all channels have 3 band EQ
2 Preamps
Phantom power
1 stereo AUX return

UTILIZATION

For the most part a very simple mixer to operate. The manual explains everything you need to know as far as: connections,features,alternative routing and so forth. Mine ever came with little section explaining how to clean and keep the mixer in working condition (that could have been something the previous owner add in though). You want to use this mixer for: Routing, mixing (basic), recording vocals or instruments (as they require preamps most of the time and any other basic computer recording projects. This is meant for smaller setups or people just jumping into the field.

SOUNDS

To be 100% honest I was not at all impressed with the sound quality of this unit for the reasons listed below.

1. The preamps are very noisy
2. The EQ is basic
3. Brand isn't too consistent with quality of production
4. The unit would go in and out from time to time. I found myself having to unplug and replug in my ¼ cables multiple times before the mixer would connect the signal
5. Phantom power is very WEAK. You'll be lucky if you can record anything a 12 inches or more away
6. Volume indicators go out very quickly


Granted this was a used model I had but the studio I record at has a few of these (they are cheap and inexpensive)and the guy that uses them takes them to wedding and family events along with his camcorder and he ran into the same issues. In fact he said out of the 3 he had in Studio Room D only one had decent sounding preamps on it.

OVERALL OPINION

I felt behringer failed in terms of putting together a quality unit for it's lower end consumers but they did create an affordable unit that can get the job done with some small restrictions it's a cheap unit can't really expect much from it.

If I were starting out recording I would save my money and go with something with a little more promise factor. I'd save my money and get a better unit or better yet make sure I test the unit in the store before purchasing it that way there are no surprises

This is not a unit I would ever purchase again. I ended up trashing the unit a month and a half after purchasing it

This is an 8 input 2 bus mixer. It has 2 strips and 2 stereo strips. There are 2 XLR inputs, each on one mono strip and each mono strip has one 1/4 inch jack. The stereo strips each have two 1/4 inch jacks. There is an fx send and return, control room outs, main outs, a headphone jack. There is one set of 2-track in/outs. Each strip consists of a 3 band eq, fx send, pan/balance knobs and a level knob. No sliders. One of the greatest things about this, is that you get two XLR inputs that provide phantom power, which is pretty darn awesome. It'd probably be cheaper to buy four of these and run them in unison instead of buying a 16 strip with 4 XLR inputs. I really love this, the preamps sound pretty good, for only costing 80 bucks. The value to money ratio here is pretty high. The lack of sliders can be impractical, but certainly not unlivable. Plus, this thing is tough. Works fine in all kinds of weather and conditions and stuff.

UTILIZATION

Everything on this mixer is sturdy, and does what it says. The parts are high quality and it's super easy to use. It doesn't have a lot of built in effects, and doesn't have any bells or whistles, just the basics. It is a great value for the price, and the Preamp is pretty much completely transparent, I love it. The manual is barely need, this thing is practically plug and go. I do wish it had a USB out, but one can do without, especially given the great price.



SOUNDS

The sound of this mixer is great. Not incredible, but great. The eq is pretty good. It has a pretty transparent sound, which is nice. I love the simplicity of it and the operation. It's INCREDIBLY quiet, and it provides enough preamp gain for most applications. I have a condenser mic that I use pretty consistently for smaller applications. There are no hisses, or pops, and all the inputs are sturdy. The thing is built like a tank, dropped it multiple times on concrete, no problems.

OVERALL OPINION

This mixer is worth every cent. It is an astounding deal, especially for the price. Behringer makes some awesome products now and then, and this is one of them! It's simplicity is a gift from heaven, and it's very well put together space wise. Your fingers have enough space to tweak the knobs, and there aren't too many knobs. Everything is clearly labeled and does what it says. The phantom power it supplies is so nice. and hard to find at such a low price. If you need a back up mixer, or something portable for smaller bands, BUY THIS NOW. You won't regret it. I do wish there was a usb output, and maybe faders instead of knobs for the main strip, but overall this thing performs. I currently own and use 3 of these things.

Purchased for $49.95 through Musician's Friend for use with Fostex VF-80 for external mic pre-amp. I've been using it for about eight months now.

1: Low Cost. 2: Phantom Power. 3: Although the transformer/power supply is external, at least it isn't a "wall wart." 4: 3-band eq per channel.

No on/off switch. To power up, you plug it in, to power off you unplug it. This seems like a ridiculous way to cut manufacturing costs by eliminating a simple on-off cut to the internal main circuit.

The quality of the construction seems fairly solid, but I purchased this for use in a home studio environment simply as a low-cost two-channel pre-amp with phantom power. For that purpose, it gets the job done.

Behringer seems to inspire feelings of rage and anger on the part of some. Problems cited in other forums seem to indicate uneven quality control practices at best. This is the only Behringer unit I found uniformly praised as a mic pre-amp on the Fostex forum at homerecording.com. Some people have cited noise problems, but I have found from experience the noise problems seem to stem from using poorly shielded and/or excessively long patch cables from the mixer to the recording unit. I have found that switching to a high-quality, well-shielded cable of less than 3-feet in length eliminates any noise problem. I have found in my environment that keeping the patch cables in the signal chain to under 1-foot in length seems to approach an ideal.
While I have no negative opinions of this Behringer unit in terms of overall quality, if I had to purchase a mixer or mic pre-amp knowing what I know now, I probably would not pick this unit simply for its lack of an on-off switch. That is the one flaw that keeps me from rating this unit a solid 5. The best I can give it is a 4.

It has everything I need when I bought it (a guitar and a microphone) and I could add a keyboard. However, once you want to put more mircos and have more things, one is quickly limited.

UTILIZATION

Setup could not be more simple, you plug and play it. The manual is frankly not good but otherwise, yes, I find it well done.

All functions are accessible, really nothing complicated. Even as my first table, I knew immediately use it.

SOUNDS

Is it transparent?
It really depends on what you plug it.

The equalizer is not very effective, but good enough for a beginner can make some very simple fixes.

There are still a lot of breath when you push a little .... This is the most negative point on this console.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year, and this is my first table. So I do not beauocup evidence to judge ...
But now I need to connect more and more mircos, I have a number table to record the tracks separately.

The value for money is very good. In its price range, is a very good console.

With experience, the choice I would do the same budget and for the same uage, yes. Besides, I keep it for wholes beautiful little voice in guitar concerts in small places.

Table analog with a dynamic audio experience over 120 db
Headphone Jack (LR), contraol room (LR jack) RCA (in and out) for effects between

UTILIZATION

Manuel amber but sufficient enough, using extremely simple.

SOUNDS

Its no transparent color. The sound is clear, clean, no breath prcis suplmentaire the pramplis trs are good. The legalization of breath adds pa suplmentaire but Galise well as it should.

OVERALL OPINION

Used in recent months, report taken exclent quality because there are 74 to pramplis phantom power supply with more input lines, a good little mixer, and a sound Excellent!

I am not competent enough to talk about that

UTILIZATION

Personally, I'm really a beginner with a beginner, and I went around without special difficulties ... especially since the manual is 5 pages and read it quickly, then unless you are very lazy ...

SOUNDS

I understand that some people find completely transparent. I plugged myself an electro-acoustic top and although I'm not an expert when I find the sound even warmer. Against by not touching the eq, and they exceed 0, there is still a slight hiss.

OVERALL OPINION

I use that for two days and I have not tried before since I started, but I do not regret my choice. I use it for singing and uen electro-acoustic, so I do not need dozens of tracks. I recommend it to those who, like me, want to start and learn without difficulty with the basic principles of a console.

Mini analog mixer 6 inputs (2 and 2 microphones Stros).

There are no sliders, which are only a few potentiomtres playschool. On my table, the opposing potentiomtres Resistors diffrent when they are running which does not leave a prsager trs good quality workmanship. The seller told me they had a lot of consoles behringer dfectueuses back so be careful in the long run or the occasion. Finally 2-3 years since I use it not yet possible I never let go.

Another black spot: no on / off button ... Must unplug the power supply for the dye and in addition the power supply is not universal.

UTILIZATION

The use is relatively intuitive (normal since the functions are pretty basic). I used it as a mixer to connect my different sources on my sound card (microphone, sampler, guitar ...). The lack of teachers slider is not too in my case because my rglages are made once and for all. But we must admit that the mini-potentiomtres rgler to gain on mic inputs are not really practical. In a recording setup with a computer, it is possible to monitor the signal coming out of the line sound card, but the monitoring of other sources is disabled in this case which can be Gnant. Now I have a soundcraft compact 10 that I find much more convenient.

SOUNDS

The preamps are transparent and everything is correct. The legalization is not transcendent, but all I prfre to fawns in a software. When you have no gear and no super cab, anyway, the main source of noise is often the environment (even if the fan noise of the computer), and a amateur home studio use, the table fills his contract.

OVERALL OPINION

I used it for 2-3 years, and I have a soundcraft compact 10 mainenant I find much better.

I like the sound (sr good for the price) that I regret is that there is no possibility of monitoring vritable recording.

I put 8 because this table is done correctly in a home studio use. Although sr, we quickly made the rounds but it has no competitor in this price range. This is the behringer: there is better, but it is more expensive.

UTILIZATION

Compact, it remains strong enough to touch. The abscence of faders is not too Dranga in itself, the buttons are well rpart even if the Ctrl channel (eq, pan and fx are a bit closer. This typically makes perfect shelf home studio. pramplis The monos are correct invoice for the price, and taken his microphone quite convincing.

SOUNDS

The sound is of good quality trs - for the price, I mean. The pramplis have a trs neutral, leaving many without the color of the microphone used.
The EQs are effective even if they are not parameter. You really push the hardware to run its course to make it blow. And in this case, it is often the quality of cables, the proximity of hardware numrique that night more than the same table in it. I use it for home recording and live as a exapndeur mlangeur between Roland and a vintage analog synth, and it is perfectly transparent.
Only problem, it lacks a few CONTRL used on many higher-end tables: there is no mute for channels, or high pass filter on mic channels. Too bad.
In use, the mix is ​​not quite transparent. Notice a bit of crosstalk between runway and a small breath of latent preamps. Too bad because otherwise it does well

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month and I am perfectly satisfied.

Most:
The mobile configuration with a trs good compromise even when routing. Of pramplis well made. EQ with the Tempra. easy routing with a recorder-type PC IN / OUT Stereo.

the -:
pots less enjoyable than CONTRL faders for track, no mute, switchable phantom power supply on both channels at the same time.

The inputs and outputs are compltes numerous enough to use personal.
M ^ me there is as an effects section

S / N ratio excellent.
Only inconvnient there is no switch: it must unplug.

UTILIZATION

Installation and getting started quick and easy

SOUNDS

S / N ratio and excellent low band equalizer 3 / mdieum / high effective

OVERALL OPINION

Use for 1 year.
trs good value for Q / P. I ^ m not beat me by searching the web.
Over time I will take a table with two or three more entries but in the same toutours SERIES.

8 in small mixer (2 preamp, stereo with eq 2, a stereo with no eq), + input tape.
General output, monitor output, headphone output (same output as monitor routing).
Routing can be a slap on the entrance / one / two outputs. Volumes differentiated.

little regret, but the volumes are no knobs and sliders, as is the case of the model with two more entries (UB1002)

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use. I used to mix the multiple outputs of my sound card to the general: it allows repeated have a mix of practice groups use

Big ennonce as default before: no switch. It's not great when it was full of stuff and have not plupard switch or rear panel switch: it's not great for energy conservation.

SOUNDS

With the use I make (eq neutral, no use of preamp), she fully agree.

For cons, I hope to use the preamp in Troubleshooting: gnrateur is a blast. Can not use it so attroce. As there is no cutting down a hand to a noise gate after the General!

I do not put 0 because this concerns only two of the eight input .....

OVERALL OPINION

I hesitated with the UB1002 at the beginning, and after one week of use, I realized that I should have taken the UB1002 (for 10 more, two entrees and sliders).

Now, as I does not use the EQ, or the preamp, a device of style ULTRALINK PRO MX882 would be better fits, but it is still worth double and it is less convenient to put on a corner office ... .

In practice, it is really very convenient to have a small mixer on hand, I do not spend more. The model 1002 (and yes, I am still missing 2 entries) must be perfect, especially since the price is really very low. I leave a note as if it again, I would buy the 1002 (but you'll probably guess)

on the other hand, if it is to connect the microphone, go somewhere else ......

To conclude, I would resume a second opinion: there is better, but it is more expensive

- Is the rack?
I do not think it is rack mountable, has remains to be seen ...

- How many lanes, bus attendant, of dparts, returns ...)?
2 microphone inputs - 2 line inputs - outputs and inputs and Tape effects - headphone and control room and hand out

- What is the type of connectors (RCA, Jack, XLR ...)?
XLR and jack for the mic
Everything else is except jack inputs and outputs that are RCA Tape

- The qualiseur paramtrique is it?
I do not rponderai because I do not know what it means Paramtrique

- The effects section is it intgre? ..
no but there is an exit and between prvu for external effects processor

UTILIZATION

- The configuration gnrale Is it easy?
Yes

- The usual functions are they easily accessible?
Same, yes

- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
Yes, everything is explained

SOUNDS

- The console is transparent?
That is to say?? (Technically, I do not know what that means)

- Introduced she breath?
lgrement from time to time but not gnral

- The qualiseur is it effective? ...
yes it will

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
2 years

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
+ I do not know, the price quality ratio probably
-: A bit fragile (and yes, once in a mic cable branch above, and the XLR conections broke)

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
not

- How do you report qualitprix?
correct

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
no, I probably walked into a yamaha, mackie or soundcraft
