All user reviews of 4/5 for the Behringer Xenyx 1222FX

The Behringer X1222USB is a console 12 inputs, 8 mic (XLR and / or Jack) and two stereo (Jack) or four microphones and four stereo (plus USB input). It has an output and an output return FX (effects understand) that can be used to output a second line returns. It has a 24 bit bus effects and a 7-band equa, always welcome. She possesses a compressor on the first four microphones and an equation with three bands on all tracks. It has a sensor feedback (not famous) which indicates the frequency to remove if the feedback. Finally, a USB port to use as a sound card.

It is sold with brackets Rack mount 19 "(not tested because I do not have a flight).

UTILIZATION

Using this console is relatively simple, yet should we understand the attached manual ... It is well illustrated but not very clear, I'm out so I think you'll get away!

There are some functions that are unnecessary for my taste and others I do not understand. I quote for example "3D stereo surround effect XPQ". I found the button, the knob, but I do not see much difference ...

SOUNDS

The console seems clear for now, I do not breath too apparent sheathing.
The equalizer is effective but it would be even better if he cut the fréquances (the example of feedback, the equation will not delete it, it is too tight). With otherwise rotten speakers (for now) I find that the equation 7 bands coupled with the three bands was not enough to remove certain frequencies. Damage, and forgiveness for the dancers of the evening).

OVERALL OPINION

Finally,
I use this console for 8 months, she used for concerts, parties and mobile disco for radio.

Before this console, I have not tested (except an old magneto twenty years and producing a huge breath).

The characteristic that I like:
- The most: The USB port! For radio, nothing better! It saves me a third sound card! It's cool!
The effects processor is not bad although some effects are weak (like the flanger for example).

-The least: the fantom power button which is located right next to food, so be careful if your microphones are sensitive! For my part, I put the tape! And some functions seem unnecessary.
I also regret the absence of PFL (PFL).

For now, I find the price / quality ratio than good. I obviously do it again if I had that choice!

There are few things to say, for all t dj said and I confirm that this table is gniale, an unbeatable price or impossible. We always wonder how they do.
So I give 10/10. I would give more if I could!

Edit 2010: I keep the note, this table is very UNESCORecords for this award.

UTILIZATION

- Simple configuration
- Explanations Retailer in the manual and, in all languages.
- The faders are much more pleasant than in the series of mixer Previous.

SOUNDS

The console is relatively transparent, provided that we get rglages. It introduces very little wind and a volume lev (compared with a Yamaha CHRE over who was the "shower"). The qualiseur is convenient but is above all a bonus from the table. Personally, I purchased a qualiseur rack of the same brand. The effects are also under supplment, but are all the same intressant.

Edit 2010: Product very correct and usable for small gigs.

OVERALL OPINION

Given the possibilities, and a console team should rate much higher.
Behringer thank you! This product is a true gift

Edit 2010: I think it is hard to find anything like this price but with the exprience it s'avre less extraordinary than I imagined it to beginners. I maintain a grade 8 because the price is really excellent.
