All user reviews for the Behringer Xenyx 302USB

The characteristics are of course on the site Berhinger!

USE

What use for this mini console? That s the question.
Personally, I have bought to replace the sound card of a laptop, and it serves me read audio clips Ableton I drive crankset with a twelve o'clock at live performances singing-guitar with Voice Live Touch TC Helicon. I get the hand out of the mini console in between the TC. Rsultat almost nothing to carry, and its super efficient.
Another use when I dplace with my guitar amp Roland AC33 stack, it serves as my multi-effect, always on between the amp. I can also connect this fawn supplmentaire a microphone and guitar. The unit is self-sufficient in energy, no need to 220v and the quality is top.
Third use, stro capture the output of my analog console.
Fourth, mini portable home studio when I go on vacation and want in a small suitcase.

SONORITS

No breath, one preamp, but the same as the XENYX series, c is to say,
quite correct.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I ve used many pros consoles in the job, the list would be too long. For my home studio, I have more than n type controllers. However, it remains a good Soundcraft me that I use for small prestas characters, and I had there a few XENYX 1222 USB that I sold it and replaced it with this mini auto-feeds much easier to transport and console which satisfies simply has cited my uses above.

I love her very little latency Leve, say sufficiently low leve and I love the opportunity to turn a laptop into a mini studio n anywhere. The effects provided with the consoles are of good quality, even if for me j mostly used for other plugins. The headphone pr-amp is good, I often use with the rather high monitoring sennheizer range, no particular problem, c is certainly no comparison with a direct connection to a PC.

For the price, there is no better choice USB card, plus the look is really great, it is not plastic, and well worth the money.

Micro console, not rackable, no built-in effects.
USB connection and power!

has a mic / line input, a stereo line input if we pass the usb, and a magnetic loop, very convenient.
some buttons to route but basically it is very convenient as it allows to pass a sound on the headphones and not on hand and vice versa!

UTILIZATION

this table is simple to use, connections, the manual is brief, but do not need more.
the buttons are small but at this price, this is the norm.

SOUNDS

sound, much worse than a dedicated audio interface is still very usable.
do not touch the EQS, do not exceed the levels (0) and all will be well advised.

not much wind on the mic, no usb on.

a good alternative to a PC sound card, which will be much more than a media card.
and buttons, it is significant!

OVERALL OPINION

for a year, without really knowing the problems, at this price, we must admit the logical boundaries;
the sound is ok, not great.
the possibilities are enormous for its size and price.
the pilot (on site) is simple and not fortiche in asio;
using ASIO FOR ALL solve problems.

in short, a cheap mixer, tailored to some specific needs (playing an instrument guided by a backing track with his pc, run a signal to an output and another to another, studio podcast) at a great price light and that works very well if you pay attention to its natural limits: D

Characteristics are well on the site Berhinger!

UTILIZATION

How to use this mini console? That s the question.
Personally, I have bought to replace the sound card of a laptop, and she used to read audio clips that I Ableton with a midi foot pilot during live performances singing with a guitar-TC Helicon Voice Live touch. I go out of hand the mini console in the entrance to the TC. Result, almost nothing to carry, and its super effective.
Another use when I travel with my guitar amp on battery Roland AC33, she serves as a multi-effect, always on the input amplifier. I can also how to connect a microphone and guitar added. The unit is self-powered, no need for 220v, and the quality is top.
Third use a stereo output capture my analog console.
Fourth, a portable mini home studio when I go on vacation and want in a small suitcase.

OVERALL OPINION

J uses many consoles have pros in the job, the list would be too long. For my home studio, I have more than n controllers. However, I have a good soundcraft that I use for small prestas characters, and I had no one there XENYX 1222 USB that I have sold to replace the self-powered mini console much easier to transport and more satisfied simply has my uses cited above.

I love his little high latency, low enough say, and I love the ability to turn a laptop into a mini studio n anywhere. Effects included with the consoles are of good quality, though for my part j uses above all other plugins. The pre-amp is good headphone, I often use a sennheizer monitoring rather upscale, special no problem, c is certainly no comparison with a direct connection to a PC.

For the price, there is no better choice USB card, and more the look is really great, it is not plastic, and it's definitely worth the money.
D in this game aillor price, it nya no competitor, and c is almost a gift that makes us Berhinger.

This is the latest victim of my acquisition syndrome bazaar ...
Very small, and everything is there!
Amazing all the same, to have a mono XLR with phantom plus a stereo with an eq 2bandes each! The headphone jack is handy, and pushing a lot.
Alim usb, mini top practice, nothing like that of my mini console phonic which is almost as big as la302 ...

UTILIZATION

That's what I predestines:
Distorted electric guitar-di-specific box (ultra-g)-Unit 1 XENYX 48v.
And link out of the di-wet delay pedal Unit 2 xenx.
This allows a total control of the guitar sound, and effect.
I'm getting off to a power amp or guitar and columns is sound, and headphones for quiet evenings with neighbors.
It is very easy to use especially since there is a zero point on the EQ sliders.
Output of amplifier without 2x75wrms volume (all the time so thoroughly) I have no residual noise, which is remarkable.
The console output is in cinch.
The level RCA (-10db) is partly responsible for less advanced than jack.
I have not been strong for now.

SOUNDS

Well, that's where it gets a bit gate. Compared to my phonic mu502 (which was also less than 50 euros) the sound of the 302 is much less transparent, dull mess.
Dynamics takes a hit too, on the other hand if we do nothing compares ben the sound coming out of the columns is quite enjoyable.
Equalizers are useful, as usual in mitigation of frequency they are better.
The sound through headphones is consistent with his amp so it's ok, and powerful enough for my big headphones.

Okay then, but the phonic is much better transparency and dynamics.

OVERALL OPINION

So I will not use this 302usb universally, it will be dedicated to a guitar preamp system as it is flexible and does not take place. Its EQ will just have to tune the setup to the room. As it should in fact.

Besides if I want to register it in the bag ... but I have not tested on computer.

What is the type of connection (RCA Jack, XLR ...)?
One XLR / JACK (6.5) (with phantom power), two RCA inputs, a microphone input jack and a headphone output 3.5 3.5 cm.

The parametric equalizer is it?
Yes, two bands.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is simple?
Yes no need to read the manual, once the drivers installed is plug and play.

SOUNDS

Effects and filters are effective?
In terms of eqs is average, better rework it in software later mao!

OVERALL OPINION

How long you use it?
For 2 months

Did you tried many other models before buying it?
Yes sound cards much more expensive ...

What is so special that you love the most, least?
+: Its price, its phantom power for studio microphones, the usb.
-: Hiss introduced in 2/3 of the knob on the headphone output, but it's not annoying.

How would you rate the quality / price?
With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Unbeatable value for money!
I would do without asking questions, this XENYX I used to take the rap voice swinging the instrument in the headphone of artists and it works great!
