OVERALL OPINION

For me this table is good but not solid. After 1 year of use I have several problems to report on:
- Poor contact at the food (why did not they expected a switch ...?!)
- Cross who died
- Difference in gross earnings when the effect is activated.

I use it daily for a year. She left home at times, but I'm going with flycase. Never abused and yet ...

Otherwise its pretty decent, cool aesthetic, knob for my taste. Good food for those who are not leaning more hours per day on their plates ...

Is rack?
yes

What is the type of connection?
RCA XLR

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is simple?
Simple and effective

SOUNDS

The console is transparent?
yes on the master XLR

The equalizer is effective?
With a good amp and good HP, equi best 'in its class.

She introduced the breath?
Yes on XLR and RCA outputs but a light in the headphone ...

OVERALL OPINION

How long you use it?
1 year

Did you tried many other models before buying it?
Yes, Stanton SA3, pioneer djm 400, numark pro smx.

What is so special that you love the most, least?
The equi + 'and the sound quality for the range.
- The mass not very accessible.

How would you rate the quality / price?
The best of the range 150 to 400 euro.

With experience, you do again this choice?

for 300euro, eyes closed ...

Master in connection XLR, RCA in monitor, microphone XLR, RCA record, line / phono RCA

UTILIZATION

general configuration extremely simple, no need manual. A & H wanted to keep only what is useful for a small 2-way, keeping the quality (although a little less than the 42 or 92)

SOUNDS

breath very very light. EQ pretty special, pretty criticized by other users. for me the explanation is their descent approximately-18db, we must love and know how to use a powerful Eq! Personally I find it very efficient and very friendly for the tech-house / minimal.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over a year. I love its simplicity and small size, easy to carry! It has the famous A & H filter, overkill and very clean! Only the preview is to be desired. Too bad there is that the filter FX.
I tried tables such as pioneer djm 350/400/600/800/2000 or A & H 42/92, I found the xone 22 much nicer than any pio even if the 800 is fairly complete. (2000 is too gadget)
the xone 42 and 92 are of better quality but will not equal the price / quality ratio of the xone 22, accessible to all, whether for beginners or as a 2nd mobile table for a confirmed dj!

I would do this choice without hesitation.

See below

UTILIZATION

super simple, no need of manual

SOUNDS

The EQ is effective without any worries, no problem as I have read, the only downside of this table is the preview, whatever .. Sound A & H is the appointment.

OVERALL OPINION

I've since its release and I ts is the worst day or every 2 days, no worries fiabilitée or cross remains in the hands, the stuff is like the rest, it takes care pas.Je or not you'd be advised to try to buy from you even before, when the false arguments of the assembly in China, we must know that the new generation of table A & H, both the xone 22, 42 or even 92, they are all assembled in China, so .....
Compared this table has a vestax is the madness, when has the nuo 2 (this crap), I died laughing.

See below.

UTILIZATION

Easy to use.

SOUNDS

EQ suck!
When cutting the mids but that leaves the lower one continues to hear, in part, the medium. Difficult to mix in these conditions!
No one but his breath for low metallic very unpleasant!

OVERALL OPINION

I only used one day, I gave it directly in its box for the return to the seller!

I tried before: ecler (nuo2.3 and 5), vestax, or the Rodec xone 42 but no report!
How Allen & Heath could leave such a stew?
It's really dirty name as many brands are already low-end tables of this kind ...

The +:
Very nice table, easy to use.

the -:
Its horrible, EQ idem.
I forgot also the headphone is disastrous ...

It is on it is not very expensive but that should not buy even if you are new!
Better in the same price range a vestax 2 channel (XLU) for example.

I wanted to test that gave the first prize of Allen and I'll bite your fingers ...
Hard to believe that the same manufacturer makes xone 42 or 92.

No effects section, but advice, fates like me, buy plutt a good mixer with a box type effects Kaoss Pad 3 or EFX 1000.

UTILIZATION

Gnrale configuration is fairly simple, even if it takes a half hour for beginners until you know what all the buttons as the manual is in English. Security precautions, however, are in French (not what is most useful, but ...) Also note that the button Submitted under the faders is a button that, when that it is off does not change the sound track, and when activated you can combine the filter and effects at the same time.

SOUNDS

The console is clear, no breath, same high volume. The qualiseur trs is effective.

OVERALL OPINION

Only 4 months of use is why I do not rule in my overall opinion, I'm waiting to see what the table will become over time. I bought it to replace a Behringer VMX 200 and it is true that the diffrence is obvious. Cel is more than 3 times the price, but I think it has the worth. Some fear the fact that it manufactures in China, honest, I do not think it is of poorer quality than other products of the same brand, the finish is perfect. What I like most: => = quality of its> quality workmanship, quality of components => filter quality => possibility to combine the effects (effects add bote course) and filter => the price for this quality of finish What I like least: => low paramtrable filter => a joke, "the sensitive srigraphie Lumire" (well, this n ' dtail is that) I will give you an appointment within a year to learn more about the reliability of the mixer, because I think that has no use honntement not leave a review of global positive or ngatif before using it for a minimum of time.

--------------------------------------------------

8 months of use, both hip hop (scratching) with my turntables in electro-house with my CDJ 200 and it works in combination as the first day.

CHARACTERISTICS base with an analog filter, which is rare for a 2-track.
The quality of manufacture is to go, it's solid.

UTILIZATION

Trs simple use (like quasiement all 2 tracks), only the handling of the filter requires some training.
The fader knob a little too high I got.
Select the track for precoute is via a knob, which allows you to listen to the mix in the headphones, but lost in the fast compared a push button (eg DJM)
Seen by the meter tracks are very practical, but less than the DJM prcis.
A lightweight button slecteur problem with the cross fader curve (lgre volume loss on one of two positions ...
Button fxloop trs misplacing it, but it's not embarrassing.
Like many English products, no ON / OFF button, so have not Gnant through a power strip with switch.

SOUNDS

TOP quality sound, good dynamic trs.
Equalizers effective and well doss: 9 total cut
Not a breath DTECT

OVERALL OPINION

I reu two days ago, I stress a little quans I place an order, because I had a DJM500 pls for years and I want something as good or better for a budjet Reduces more ...
I had two tables POWER, a ECLERC, 2 NUMARK, PIONEER one, but the quality of XONE22 in therm of his passes Premire position.
Only regret the precision VU meters on average, and no VU meter indpendant master, otherwise, c foot, I do it again this choice without problem, or if a MODEL above.
Bought for around 320euro is trs right from the DJM400 and no frills, just enough.

See the features on the site Allen & Heath A third line input with either the microphone would have been great, but considering the price it tickle ... A + for the XLR connectors (it should be mandatory), the second in a mini headphone jack, and the filter (rather rare in this category and this rate).

UTILIZATION

The grip is very fast (at the same time is a 2 channel mixer). All functions are accessible on the front of the table except the microphone settings (level, bass, treble). The pots are spaced equalizer (low risk of getting a sprain of the phalanges). The pots and faders are hard plastic but of quality. The meter is accurate enough (cue or master of your choice). Only downside: the buttons to activate the filter / FX on each track are a bit close to the crossfader.

SOUNDS

The dynamics are excellent. No added breath than my old speakers. The equalizer is very good. The three bands are either completely cut or boosted to +9 dB. The filter (lowpass or highpass choice) is far from a gadget. It really helps to add a twist to the original mix (which is more convenient with a Knob on the table with the mouse on traktor ...)

OVERALL OPINION

Notices hot! I received a few days ago. I use it to house and electro mix essentially (vinyl and MP3 in TRAKTOR SCRATCH) I use different tables (Gemini PS626, Vestax PMC170, Pioneer DJM, blue bullying). What did stand out is the sound that comes out and the quality of materials used. The most impressive on the table is its price / quality ratio! A 2-channel console with triple correction, a flexible crossfader and quality, XLR outputs, a send / return for external effects, a built-in filter ... all signed Allen & Heath for only 300 €. Only regret I will not have to wait too long to change. I'll let you know once a few evenings. ----------------- After 2 months of use and some evenings, the crossfader begins to sizzle on one side. A gust of air gun and it should start but nothing very reassuring. The buttons activate the filter can emettere a little noise when pressed, but nothing too bad. Otherwise, despite these two remarks, this table is truly excellent. She has a huge potato and you really have to go to successfully make saturate.
-----------------
More than 6 months of use and still as happy with this purchase. The crackle of the crossfader is left with a shot blower.

UTILIZATION

I use it with two PDX 2300 MKII PRO, the manual is clear, the functions are simple.

SOUNDS

The xone is transparent, there is no breath on the master but a light in the headphone.

The equalizer is the strong point of this table, it is very effective.

OVERALL OPINION

The sound of this mixer is great, it has the potato. I mix hip hop, dance hall and dub electro and really is the top. well-sour estimating the sound quality is subjective, it must still know how to set the EQ and a system of broadcast quality.

It is true that to reach this price they removed the settings of the scales and sliders but connectivity is the best in the segment with a monstrous (monitor, record, fx loop, XLR out).

For me the weak point is the cross but I expect him to put a pro innofader, which should make it a beast mix and scratch.

+ + + Price, sound, eq
--- Cross.

To see the official website!
Note that it has 2 channels and 2 way phono line but we just turn it into 2 * 2-way line by making a small manip inside which is described by A & H in the manual.

UTILIZATION

It is a delight to use. All is well placed. It's solid and precise.

SOUNDS

Sound quality A & H's so very good especially for the filter. No audible breath. Mode crossfader and perfect cut, cut it really dry.

OVERALL OPINION

I tried a Korg and feel at the knobs and faders is totally different. The Xone is more ergonomic and more confidence.
What I like most is the filter. The only criticism I bit him is the provision of the microphone in front, and the external power supply.
In hindsight I do not regret my purchase on the contrary. A purchase with your eyes closed!

SOUNDS

the equalizer is effective but leave the table very particular sound which for me does not suit me.


OVERALL OPINION

I've used one week after I've returned
bah j ai mix on TBLE rodec rane ecler

Most:
look
finishes
ergonomics
effectiveness of the equalizer in the medium acute
its price
Least:
particular sound
low enough
PFL headphone
I mix lots of styles: drum and bass trance electro tekno hardtekno, I think the bass is bcp too dry and just a little look at medium frequencies (I mix on fostex pm1). I would say that she is pr mix of trance because the sounds are really very own but that it takes the low J was disappointed ... There is no warmth and roundness as one might find in the range ecler Nuo example ...
Something that Annoyed me more particularly was the preview of the headphone ...
Accustomed to the nuo or there is pr switches select channel 1 or 2 or 2 or a knob of the bah level was only "the option knob (dsl I is not the technical vocabulary) and c is lousy because when we selected, for example Track 1 "alone" was a sound level bcp greater than if one listens to the two lane mm tps (therefore requiring two knobs to manipulate each time to stall pr)
AC was good if not go the ergonomics are very good, a great quality of workmanship and finish and look of hell ... but pr me she misses the point ...
the money is pretty good because we have here a good quality product but it does not fit my ears ... I've returned to my dealer and I have my reccup nuo2 ...
Avc the experience he would never cross my mind to try al one day buy a Xone22.

Excellent connectivity, XLR ...
exit "effects"

UTILIZATION

Table simple but very effective, the sound is warm and clear, 10mm faders are solid and inspires confidence ... The filter is excellent too, it changes from Numark! (Nothing!)


SOUNDS

The equalizer cutting out the frequencies, and the pots are well spaced, it was the place to play with!

OVERALL OPINION

I've since July 2 and half months so this day, before so I had a Numark DXM 06, nothing in between those two tables ... sound quality at A & H is really good, we see here the difference between digital and analog ... the filter is really nice ... I loved a function "kill" but hey, they're going very well ...
To me it is well worth its price of 325 Euros when purchasing new ... and effectively if the choice had to be rebuilt, it would not hesitate!

Comprehensive connectivity for the price (master XLR, RCA monitor with adjustable gain, Record RCA, XLR microphone, fx loop)

HIPASS filter / lopass + button to the choice of Q.

cue by knob mix (very handy!)

no crossfader reverse, suddenly not suitable for scratch, but it's not the point here.

UTILIZATION

very simple, it is taken in hand soon. everything is very well placed. compared with the xone 32 she fell immediately at hand and is much more readable. honestly, I have not been packed by 32 and that's not counting the price difference.

SOUNDS

EQ fairly linear filter really great. Good headroom and not much wind.
bargraph really screwed up: channel or master (similar to cue) with 3 colors: green (strongest) blue (good!) red (not good!)

compared with a DJM400 is much more pleasant to grip and it really sends the dough on a big front!

Having the hands Korg KM-202, Numark 5000FX, Pioneer DJM400/DJM600, Eclerc Nuo 2, Amix RMC 35 ... for the price, the Xone 22 is really worth.

OVERALL OPINION

Two negative points:
assemble a little cheap caps fader. They stand in fairly easily. are ways to better secure them, but it is rather to A & H to do the production ...

The filter is a big "click" if it engages on a kick or snare. it's just a habit, do not trigger a peak.

other than that, this mixer sounds great, is cheap and is very well thought out. to see over time ...
