All user reviews for the Allen & Heath Xone:S2

The Allen & Heath Xone: S2 is a DJ mixer that can be racked. It has 2 mono mic inputs and 4 stereo dual input channels. There are a total of 5 outputs on this mixer. The audio signals that will come out of this unit are very clean. I have used it in a many clubs and never had any issues with it. The price is pretty affordable considering all the features that it has.

UTILIZATION

Setting this mixer up is very quick and easy, all you need to do is plug in your gear, or if you want to use it as a USB interface you can. If you want to use it as an interface it can record directly to your DAW or you can use your computer for effects. This mixer does have mic ducking, and it will give you full control over the feature by allowing you to control the depth and release of the mic ducking. I have used many units that didn’t give me control over the release and it can get very sloppy when trying to talk over the music.

SOUNDS

This mixer can be put right in a rack and you will not have to worry about it at all. Even if you do not want to rack it there is nothing to worry about because it is very well built. I have had no issues with it “burning out” like I have read from other users.

OVERALL OPINION

Also the compressor on this mixer is very good, the limiter too. I didn’t expect to get a limiter as good as the one on the S2 was for this price. It have used this mixer as an interface and a mixer for my turntables before. It can handle just about anything and it is still working great today. I have been using it for almost 3 years now and have no complaints!

Beautiful table, already sertant the board you can see the thickness of sheet metal and lacquered finish top, 19-inch rackmount, 2 channel microphone / line XLR for mics, 4-way phono / line RCA, USB Input, XLR main output monitor and RCA, filter and effect loop, insert more diverse, with, and talk over ligth on microphones
A truly versatile table

UTILIZATION

The table is very simple to use, no need of manual (which is in English), a little flutter in the grip of filters and effects, but the entire console is basic

SOUNDS

The console is a bit colorful, dedicated to DJ, the sound is amazing and impeccable quality, a little breath knob master vacuum thoroughly, but there is zero if any, equalizer really éfficace the talk over is a bit slow mounted to the same problems in fontion,

DJ Console Rack 19p, 4 phono or line voice of linear or rotary faders race voices + 2 mic or line of linear faders + 1 + 1 line input USB input
connections while RCA and XLR microphone except XLR output to hand out a separate mono XLR output parameter sub, an audio output for lights in a separate monitor output and record output and a USB output for PC rengistrer , an effects loop in and insert an effects loop for external effects that are transplanted effect on the channel where there is the fabulous filter
sublime design of little details always thought proper to allen and heath, beautiful colors of the LEDs and buttons in short we want to use it for work so when you have it under your fingers
small negatives, absolutely all the connectors are underneath and it's a shame, allen and heath are able to make connections on a rotating panel (such as mixwizzard 3) I am surprised they have not applied equally this model because it is advantageous to have a fly with depth, personal I had to change ALL MY cables for bent wires (RCA and XLR, and even power supply) so plan off under the table, I have a personal fly road ready and I have the rack on the top hinges
8 So I put these small annoyances
However as the Denon DN-x900 can signal splitter to the headphone in half to avoid taking a back (left: pre-listening right: front)

UTILIZATION

Very simple not bother to read the manual

SOUNDS

FUCKING SOUND!! especially the bass is heavy and powerful, no breath no distortion when the volume goes up but be careful I do not mix personal with CDs of trade, no mp3 rotten mugs on e-mule so the bass is initially on the CD, and behind when you give a good fuel to the table I can guarantee it hard at all, I personally found above pioneer in bass response but I think great equalizer, and especially this particular filter super music very pleasant to use (Pioneer opted for the effects, Allen and Heath has chosen a filter that is their choice but it's also fun and effective

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one week now
I love the most: SOUND! the filter, the beauty of the object, the splittable headphone, USB input for PC while it's great pity it is not possible to send one of four tracks (she manages a knob) and the same USB inputs do not correspond to a double sound card, so Allen and Heath would have thought of that it would have been THE table mix, the two microphone inputs on the front (note the level of the better wireless microphones set to 20db and raise the gain of the table than the other way!)
I like the least, the connectors underneath making it necessary to have a deep fly or at least planned for and once tightened the screws if you have to plug something it is advantageous to have a screwdriver in itself benefits
I had before that denon dn-x900 (frankly very good value), pioneer 500-600-3000 and lately when I mix 800 for others without my stuff but I really prefer allen and heath mixer for the same if I stay faithful to Pioneer decks

quoted just below

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use after a few hours of mix.
English manual, no manual in French, too bad.

SOUNDS

No breath. Great sound
I know it's not like before I had the low-end home speaker gemini Gemini with ba and impressive contrast to his. There are low (although not on the level of a sub or a good speaker) I have heard have jamma like her.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?

Since one week and a half

What is so special that you like most and least?

Plus: Any
Monk: Nothing yet
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
Gemini IMG yes and nothing to do with these m *****

How would you rate the quality / price?
I had great value for € 750

With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Yes, very good stuff as I board the world's all worth the cost.

Table rack 19p.
4-way very linear.
Super precision ...
Master output XLR, RCA and others.
An XLR output for bass.
2 microphones switched on line (so it goes to 6 lanes!)


UTILIZATION

After 2 hours of use, very good grip.
GalR sometimes with filters ... but no big deal. AC's weird at the time, that's all.

SOUNDS

Power reliability, design, super sound.


OVERALL OPINION

In the same range (but not always the same format), German & Heath Xone 42, 800 djm pioneer, rodec BX9.
Good would be difficult to judge the quality of each. "The tastes, colors," in short we are in good quality ...
