    Dimensions (HxWxD): 97 x 270 x 328 mm
    Weight: 2.8 kg

    UTILIZATION

    Ultra simple.

    The manual seems clear vraiement but has not been used. This is a table of intuitive mix with the usual options.

    Everything is easily accessible.

    SOUNDS

    THE console is + / - transparent ... We must not push too gains the table for lack of breath and preferably come with a fairly high gain in the table. The equalizer is his office.

    The effects on the merit to exist but are not transcendent. Better work via post to add a programe.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 1 year.

    First studio table bought especially for the presence of four high-impedance inputs to enter with such intruments guitar / bass directly. Makie in the presence of 3 on most models except "mega budgets."

    4entrées with direct guitar / bass were the reason for my purchase of this table.

    I would do this choice for the budget and use that I do. (Small jams with friends, home studio solo) With the highest standards and a much larger budget 2 tables Makie firewire connected together for the final high impédences 6entrées live instruments.

    Nice little mixer

    Behringer Xenyx 1204FXPublished on 06/14/12 at 17:53
    Non-rackable....Quite small but nothing is miniature...All full sized faders, etc...
    The connection types are all analog...1/4 instrument cable inputs/outputs...
    EQ is limited to basics but quite workable and impressive...Each input has a trim pot to adjust input...It's a nice sounding adjustment...

    There are also built-in FX that are pretty ok...If used sparingly, they are more than adequate...But if you want a wet reverb you might wanna look elsewhere,,,It can do it, just not as convincingly as I hoped...

    The build is sufficient but I wouldn't expect it to handle much rough treatment,,,It's not a delicate flower by any standard, just not "built like a tank." Whatever that means n…

    The build is sufficient but I wouldn't expect it to handle much rough treatment,,,It's not a delicate flower by any standard, just not "built like a tank." Whatever that means now anyway...

    UTILIZATION

    Everything is accessible and easy to use...

    No problems hooking up and was using it 15 minutes after it arrived...

    Manual is good and there's a lot of info online via forums and reviews like these...

    There is one sticky point I have...It uses a special power connection...That sucks as mine broke and I had to order a special power supply...

    SOUNDS

    No audible hiss unless you are using it improperly...The EQ is minimal but effective enough...It's not tweak able in any way but that's fine...It's meant to be a bare bones do it all mixer...

    The preamps are just fine for live use and home recording...I wouldn't expect to see them anywhere else aside from places of worship (God apparently LOVES Behringer as you see more of their stuff there than Guitar Center :) ) Anyway, I digress...

    To get right to the main point - Does this deliver the goods in a small package? Yes, not my first choice for digital recording but more than fine for a small PA setup... This thing is everything you would hope and more - it's worth more than the asking price in my opinion...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I like the small size and ease of use most...

    I dislike the special power supply and cheap build...

    I like that it sounds as good as higher priced competitors just doesn't look or feel like them...If you close your eyes, most wouldn't hear a difference...

    Precision? I don't know...It doesn't color the tone of anything beyond adding FX (if desired) and EQ...

    I would buy it again and might just have to as I hear something rattling around the inside of mine... :) True...Still sounds and works fine so I am not sweating it...

    I own much better and higher end mixers but there's something really nice about gigging with a cheaper alternative...You can leave your good setup safely at home and use this Behringer gear for shows...Just treat it nicely and you'll have a long,loving relationship...

    For a start, it's not so bad ...

    Behringer Xenyx 1204FXPublished on 05/14/11 at 08:59
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    From memory, I think it's rack, but I've never used as such ...

    Each channel has an XLR input (MIC) and jack (LINE IN) switch with a low pass 75 Hz (18 dB / oct), plus a trimer +10 to +60.

    Each slice (track) has a 3 band equalizer to 12 kHz High, Mid, and Low at 2.5 kHz to 80 Hz

    A departure by an aux track with the possibility of starting preroll (before impact I think).
    Not to mention the inclusion of effect (as part of the table) and pan control.

    There are 4 mono channels, 2 stereo channels (5 / 6 and 7 / 8) plus two channels of "subgroup" (Alt3-4).
    In fact when you mute the other tracks, they flip into 3 / 4 ...
    There is also an input / output RCA type line to go direct…

    There is also an input / output RCA type line to go directly to the soundcard, or to a DAT etc. ...

    UTILIZATION

    The general setup is pretty simple ... but we need to know a little bit.
    Personally, I never interested from near or far to a table and then, at first I was a little lost.
    The manual is clear enough, but I'm pretty limited intellectually, and so I waded ...

    The functions are accessible
    Note that with this model, there is a small USB sound card for laptop, very limited use for music and the one who gave me a headache ...

    SOUNDS

    For me, the console is too transparent to be used condition ....
    I am not used only 2 or 3 channel, stereo line and mic so, after six months, one slice started blowing ... I took him where I had purchased and the failure was due to non-use of this installment ...

    A week later, the box I was exchanged against a new one and since everything is fine.

    I do not use any of the integrated effects, I tried it and it did not look too bad ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I used it for 1 year without any worries (except the portion which blows), and I'm so happy that I bought its big sister the x2222FX bringing me the same satisfaction in greater ...
    I had not tried other models before it, I made that choice by watching as you do now, opinions on AudioFanzine and I made a choice plsu economic Music ... in the end, both are waiting for you and it's a choice I do not regret at all.

    The specificity and also the reason why I have not sold is that I can possibly leave the "big" at home and carry on holidays or early evening without any dismantling ... and as it is the same brand, I'm not too lost ...
    I forgot something important, too, she has a phantom power for my microphone ...
    So please, if this is your first purchase, it will be good.
