By Cari Live. Here is my review of equipment in my studio and first up is the Behringer XENYX 1204USB Mixer. I had no experience and little money to get started recording and found myself in need of a simple way to connect my synthesizer to my computer and also be able to play my flute with a basic microphone.

You will need to select the 2TR/USB to CTRL ROOM button so that the computer output will be routed away from the main mix to the CTRL ROOM output. Do not press the 2TR/USB to MAIN button. You will want to connect the control room outputs to your power amp or powered speakers and control your monitoring level via the CTRL ROOM knob. You will be able to monitor through the speakers or the headphones. The USB interface built into the mixer is class compliant under Windows and uses core audio driver on a Mac. This means that it doesn't need a driver to be installed when used with Windows XP or Mac OS X. The interface built into the mixer uses the generic Microsoft USB driver, which is built in to Windows XP.

The interface built into the mixer doesn't have to have a driver of it's own at all. XP From the Start menu in Windows XP, go to control panel sounds & audio devices select audio. Set your default sound playback to USB Audio Codec. Also set the default recording to USB Audio Codec. Vista From the Start menu in Windows Vista, go to control panel sounds.

Set your playback to USB Audio Codec. Also set the recording to USB Audio Codec. In addition you will need to select what interface is assigned in your recording software. There should be some kind of preferences menu or options menu to select it. Refer to the users manual of your recording software for more information. You can download Audacity from the BEHRINGER website. Alternately, you can get Audacity directly from Sound Force.

Go into the edit preferences menu of Audacity. In the Audio I/O menu, here you can select the playback device and recording device. This is where you select the USB interface. In the recording section, you will want to have the channels selection set to 2(stereo). Please help stupid overhere.

Connecting my laptop to mixer (usb),using audacity, 'preference' setting done blah blah blah all done. Problem is this. To get the input signal to audacity,you need to toggle the 2 usb/ buttons,BUT if you set them to get input,theres no output to the mixer and speakers,soooooo,if you've recorded something and you want to add backing vocals or whatever,you cant hear the previous recording PLAYING while doing the RECORDING. Is there ANY way to setup in order to change this? O.k,another problem. After reading 'tmwilson's' post properly,I changed my setup to record and monitor,which works 'o.k'. While recording,I monitor the recording through headphones (volume control through 'control room' knob) while playing the audio track through the main output.

(1832usb mixer,XP on laptop,Audacity) BUT, 2 issues. Is it seems to 'double' all the sound, headphone and speakers. If I 'slide up' the input level,it mutes the audio output and if I 'un-mute' it,it 'slides' the input back to zero,all this automatically. Audacity or soundcard issue? Any suggestions? Hello everyone, I am also facing an issue with my Behringer X1832USB 18-Input Mixer where I am unable to get an audio signal to my laptop for recording. However, this worked few times for me initially when I started.

Computer can send audio signals (when you play some music file) to mixer which I can hear through the mixer output. But there is no signal coming from mixer to laptop at all. I am using Windos XP and have correctly set the default device in control panel, sounds and audio devices to USB for paly back and recording. Can someone please advice me how to fix this problem?

Make sure that the '2-TR to Main' is in the up position, the Mode is in control room, 2-TR/USB and Main in source are in the down position, and make sure your speakers are in the countrol room outs. TO simply play a file through your main output speakers, put the 2-TR to Main in the up position. (red buttons) This is for recording purposes. If you are only trying to listen or play music through use the second option, but for recording, you pretty much have to use the first.

Sonically Superior Mic Preamps The XENYX 1204USB gets its name from our legendary, high headroom XENYX mic preamps, which have been praised by audio engineers all over the world.

These state-of-the-art mic pres represent a major step in the evolution of audio technology – and they can easily hold their own, even when compared to the most expensive stand-alone mic preamps. XENYX preamps off er a staggering 130 dB of dynamic range, with a bandwidth that extends from below 10 Hz to well above 200 kHz. Armed with these outstanding mic preamps, the Behringer XENYX 1204USB – 12-input usb analog mixer provides such transparent, crystal-clear performance you just might think someone upgraded your mics while you weren’t looking. One-Knob Compression Ask professional sound engineers what their favorite piece of external processing gear is and the majority response will be virtually unanimous – dynamic compression. What is compression? We’re glad you asked. Compression essentially limits the dynamic range of a signal, lowering the level of loud sounds and turning up softer sounds, to achieve sonic balance.

But applying compression is a delicate art that many novice, and even intermediate, sound techs find challenging. Our “one-knob” compression is available on all mono channels and is easy to operate, even for entry-level users. With this one knob, you can easily dial in the perfect amount of compression for instruments and vocals, creating powerful mixes with punch and clarity. This is indeed a rare feature for products in this class – but standard on the XENYX 1204USB – 12-input usb analog mixer. Sublimely Musical British EQ The British consoles of the 1960s and ‘70s changed the sound of rock and roll – without them the British Invasion might not have happened.

Those legendary mixing desks soon became the envy of engineers and producers all over the world. The channel EQ on our XENYX mixers is based on that very same circuitry, allowing you to imbue signals with incredible warmth and detailed musical character. Even when applied generously, these equalizers exhibit sweet forgiveness and superb audio quality. Recording Bliss There was a time when the recording process called for lots and lots of expensive gear, which meant the average musician had to buy time at a recording studio – and that time was pricey indeed. But modern technology has put personal recording well within the reach of virtually anyone with access to a computer. How do you get all that music flying around your brain into your computer? That’s where the Behringer XENYX 1204USB – 12-input usb analog mixer comes in.
