    Trs bonne petite table de mixage avec tout ce qu’il faut dont une entre sortie usb/2tracks pour un enregistreur externe (pc ou MP3 par exemple).
    Aucun souffle si on ne dpasse pas les limites du matriel connect dessus et qu’on utilise des cbles en bon tat. Le son est trs correct avec une bonne compression.
    Je peux enfin brancher tout le matriel sans avoir jongler pour que a fonctionne (par ex: je peux diriger la guitare soit vers un effet numrique externe, soit directement vers la sortie, ou les deux en mme temps, juste en mutant ou dmutant les pistes).
    Un seul bmol, un manque de progressivit du potentiomtre du casque qui le rend sensible rgler…
    A voir dans quelques annes si cette table reste toujours aussi correcte.

    Das Mischpult hat fast alle Anschlussmglichkeiten die man bentigt um flexible arbeiten zu knnen. Schade ist das der 2 track Eingang nicht auf die Alt ausgng gelegt werden kann.
    Dafr sind die Main ausgnge parallel verwendbar. Sowohl xlr als auch klinke kann mit verschiedenen Verstrker bzw. Aktivboxen gleichzeitig belegt werden.
    Die Betriebsanleitung ist leider vllig unzureichend und beschreibt die Funktionen nur sehr oberflchlich.
    Einen telefonischen Support, der bei der Inbetriebnahme schnell helfen knnte ohne langes hin und her schreiben, konnte ich nicht ermitteln.
    Besonders der Anschluss ber USB an den PC oder Laptop ist schwer zu ergrnden und Bedarf einiger Vorkenntnisse im Computerbereich. Zwar wird ein treiber fr den Computer auf der Behringer Homepage angeboten, jedoch ohne jegliche Beschreibung fr welche Betriebssysteme er geeignet ist noch wie installiert werden kann.
    Ich habe mein Laptop wie bisher ber 2 track und vorhandene externe Soundkarte angeschlossen. Das funktioniert einwandfrei wenn man erstmal weis das zur Aufnahme der 2 Track auf Mainausgang abgeschaltet werden muss.
    Das Effektgert ist ganz brauchbar, lsst aber einige Mglichkeiten vermissen wenn man ein TC Helicon gewhnt ist.
    Alles in allem kann ich das Mischpult fr den durchschnittlichen Musiker mit Ambitionen zur Audioaufnahme im Homestudio empfehlen.

    Il mixer presenta una costruzione robusta ed esteticamente molto carina, a un primo utilizzo sembra essere di buona qualit e teoricamente presenta anche una buona parte effetti il problema pi grosso che purtroppo non esiste un manuale in italiano e soprattutto non esiste un manuale che spieghi in dettaglio tutta la parte effetti e come si configura al meglio. Alla fine dopo averlo provato per alcuni giorni ho deciso di ripiegare su un altro modello restituendo questo perch per un utilizzo live a mio avviso troppo scomoda la configurazione degli effetti. Sicuramente rimane un ottimo mixer da studio o in quei casi dove non c’ bisogno di modificare gli effetti pi volte durante una serata.

    Got this for a super good deal for around 80-90 (been a month or two so can’t necessarily remember) and it worked exquisitely. I had been using this to feed my microphone and headphones through a series of different channels and found it quite easy to use.

    Unfortunately, I have quite a complicated set up for my microphone and it didn’t work with how I have used it. This was due to the lack of drivers for this unit, and ASIO4ALL or other software such as A4A did not support what I wanted it to do.

    That doesn’t mean the product is bad because it’s a plug and play mixer, works straight away as you plug it into your computer. It just wasn’t specifically for me – unfortunately.

    Golden Review Award: 14 From Our UsersTja, was soll ich sagen?
    Fr den Probenraum sicher okay; eine kleine Party im privaten Kreis wrde ich damit auch noch machen.
    Interessierte Einsteiger (wie ich) und Jugendliche mit knappem Budget werden sicher Ihren Spa damit haben. Klare Empfehlung.

    Aber eine Veranstaltung mit zahlenden Gsten und in rauer Umgebung? Eher nicht.
    Die Fader sind sehr leichtgngig und fhlen sich irgendwie billig/klapprig an.
    Beim ersten Durchtesten der Funktion fiel auf, das die XLR-Buchsen aller 4 Mikrofoneingnge nicht funktionierten. Es wurde natrlich als Garantiefall behandelt und lief auch wirklich gut.
    Das Repair-Centre befindet sich allerdings in England, was durch die langen Versandwege automatisch zu Wartezeiten fhrte. Die Fehlerbeschreibung habe ich dann gleich mal in Englisch verfasst.
    Es gibt Kunden, die ein lautes Grundrauschen des Mixers bemngeln. Das wrde ich so nicht besttigen wollen.
    Bei “Bhnenequipment” handelt es sich nicht um HiFi-Gerte.
    Ja, es gibt ein Rauschen. Aber dafr sind die Class D-Endstufen meiner Aktivboxen verantwortlich. ber einen Kopfhrer abgehrt, halte ich das alles fr sehr normal und nicht mal schlecht.

    Ein paar Dinge ber Mischpulte habe ich gelernt und hatte Spa dabei:
    – Wer High-Class haben mchte, muss richtig Geld in die Hand nehmen – nicht nur 200
    – Wrde ich einen Mixer selbst bauen, wrde allein das Material (Buchsen, Fader, VU-Meter, Effektprozessor, Netzteile, USB-Soundkarte, Platinen, Chips, …) weit mehr als doppelt so viel kosten, der Bau 1 Jahr dauern und einen Haufen Arbeit bedeuten.
    – Das Funktionsprinzip war mir klar, aber es gibt so viele Kniffe und Tricks, die man sich aneignen, ausprobieren und ben muss (Signalfhrung, Verkabelung und Bedienung).
    – Ein Mischpult hat nie genug Kanle
    – zuverlssiges Material beruhigt, wenn ein Gig bevorsteht – also Geld in die Hand nehmen
    – den Beruf des Tontechnikers/ Toningenieurs gibt es nicht umsonst

    Jetzt liegt es an euch zu entscheiden, welche Ansprche ihr habt und was sie euch wert sind.

    A major upgrade from my previous desk, this added numerous features which have proved their worth. From quality dsp to USB connectivity for use with DAW software.
    Ideal for band start ups or medium level home studio use, or dj/karaoke use.

    If you need something more advanced than a line mixer but not quite the high end studio type then this or its stablemates offering fewer or a few more inputs is well worth a look.

    It includes dsp/sound processor pass throughs, built in compressors on 4 mic lines plus dsp. Although your probably going to want the pass through option for more serious work the built in processor is fine for basic vocals.

    Certainly worth a look if you can find them on offer as I did, and need more flexibility.

    Build quality on mine is spot on.

    Not too big and very easy to understand. There aren’t many mixers of this size that have 4 stereo channels!

Great PFL for cueing vinyls. I cannot find anything bad to say about this machine. In summary – GREAT PIECE OF KIT WITH OOMPH! Highly recommended!

    This mixer is excellent. I’m used to professional desks and this little mixer sounds superb and it’s very versatile being suitable for both recording and live production. It’s also the perfect analogue mixer for internet radio stations. As it supports 4 mic and 4 stereo line inputs for music. It also has built in effects such as echo if you like that sort of thing!

    I’m bewildered how they do it for the money, unbelievable value.

    What can you say about the X1622USB mixer by Behringer, let’s start with love it, just what I wanted. I like the design and the feel of the faders is spot on for me. The slightest touch and the volume is reacting, perfect. It’s surprisingly light as well, there is a little weight to it, so you know you are holding it. But that being said you are not going to be walking around with it for long periods of time, and any operation will be done on a flat surface. The bite on the pots is just right so you know as you turn it you have definitely hit center, but not enough bite to create a click or have you accidentally turn too hard to move it. I could keep going, but you know what, just buy a Behringer and go for it. I know a number of people have had bad experiences, but hey it happens.

    Perfect inexpensive podcast, v/o and production mixer. Plugs straight into the USB socket on your computer, and (with a little extra wire lightning male to USB female camera adaptor) will work directly into your iPad. Versatile FX and mic compression built in. Has phantom power for professional standard mics, and a headphone socket for closed monitoring of mix or playback. Will not drive loudspeakers directly without an amplifier. The best on the market for low budget but high quality audio work.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI use this mixer for pre recording shows for hospital radio.

    I can say this is a very nice mixer, the mic gain is a nice future with the added pre / post fade, I also have used this mixer to do radio imaging,
    only downfall is the software on the website is not good but this don’t affect the rating as I use mixpad for editing.
    It has a nice 4 band EQ on all channels and a nice compressor on the first 4 XLR channels, the fx are a nice touch but can be over powering.
    But I found to give it that extra rich sound on the mic ide recommend on using a DBX 286s Mic Processor as well.
    There are so many futures on this mixer it is one of the best I have seen for the value, you will not be disappointed!

    Used regularly at live gigs and handles 4 keyboards and a module in stereo and two mic inputs. Excellent sound quality (love the EQ) and while the onboard FX lack editing they’re good enough for vocal work without tweaking. I’ve had this unit a while now before I’ve got around to writing this so I can honestly say it’s a reliable bit of kit … capable of taking a knock or two on the road too.
    Highly recommended, built to the usual high standard of Behringer.

    Golden Review Award: 21 From Our UsersIch habe mir dieses Mischpult gekauft um fr Videoschnitt usw. Ton aufnehmen zu knnen. Dieses Mischpult hab ich wegen den positiven Tests gekauft und ich bin nicht enttuscht worden.
    Ich hatte beim ersten anschliessen des Gertes ber USB an meinen PC nur einen anhaltenden sehr hohen Ton, der sich nur beenden lie indem ich den USB-Stecker wieder heraus zog. Im Internet stie ich darauf, dass das wohl ein “bekanntes” Problem sei, fand aber keine Lsung. Ich rief daraufhin bei dem Hndler “Musik Produktiv GmbH” an, der das Mischpult ber amazon verkauft hat. Die Lsung des Problems wird sich bestimmt einem Elektriker, Physiker, Tontechnikmeister erschliessen 😉 mir tat es das jedenfalls nicht. Ich sollte Mischpult und PC in einen Stromkreis hngen, ich hatte aus “Lasttechnischer” Sicht den PC komplett getrennt von Mischpult, Studiomonitoren, Monitoren und Co betrieben. Als ich beides in einen Kreis eingesteckt hatte, war das piepen kaum noch wahr zu nehmen und dann kam der Trick, bei dem ich erst dachte mein gegenber am Telefon wollte mich verppeln, ich solle den Netzstecker des Mischpultes um 180 Grad drehen und wieder einstecken…….hab ich gemacht…..seitdem hrt man kein piepen mehr, unglaublich.
    Ich lasse mir gern als Kommentar auf diese Rezension einmal erklren wieso das funktioniert hat.

    Fazit: Fr meine Zwecke, Ton und Musikschnitt fr Film am PC (iPad anschliessen etc. funktioniert ebenso einwandfrei) ist es ein sehr gutes Preis/Leistungsverhltnis. ber die technischen Feinheiten knnen sich gerne andere auslassen, davon hab ich keine Ahnung.

    Well built, great sound quality and a great USB interface but note that it’s not a DAW controller. You can’t controll the faders and knobs in Logic, Cubase or Pro Tools. It’s simply a USB interface so you can record the sound directly from the Xenyx to your software.

    I have owned this mixer for around 3 months now, and so far my experience has been very positive.

    I bought this as essentially I needed an easy way to combine the outputs of my keyboards, podXT, microphone and bass, largely for convenience. This mixer fits the bill very well, especially considering its low price point. The USB interface also makes it easy to record with, however keep in mind that as has been stated previously, the USB output only records the main out, so left + right channel.

    My only complaint would be that the amplification is slightly noisy when turned up high – this could be resolved by using an external amplifier, which I intend to purchase at a later date.

    One other issue – I’ve had some instability with the ASIO drivers and Windows 8 – a couple of bluescreens here and there, seems to have something to do with power saving mode and has also been reported with similarly priced M-Audio devices. I suspect one would need a good firewire interface to avoid this unfortunately. In fairness, I don’t have this problem with my Yamaha MOX6’s audio interface, however it isn’t really suitable for recording multiple instruments with, hence why I bought this mixer.

    Overall, for the money it’s excellent – you won’t find something with more features for the price. Whilst it does have its limitations, often mixers which do feature multi-track USB recording, lower noise outputs and better drivers cost considerably more.

    Golden Review Award: 15 From Our UsersI have had this for a year now and I love the product. Build quality is very solid and design is excellent, sound quality out of board is very good and you have plenty of connections. The board makes everything easy to find which are all nicely illustrated. Product was very easy to install on the mac, i use many DAW software like Ableton, logic, garageband and Maschine which all work very well with the mixer when it comes down to the amount of inputs connected for you to manage. The downside and my biggest disappointment when it comes to this product is the fact that it does not allow you to do any multitrack /channel record to your software!! you can only record max, up to 2 channels at once!!, plus, you can’t really hear your previous recording ontop of what your record at once.

    This product I think behringer has wrongly published on their website and not clearly state anywhere of the mixers limitations when it comes down to recording via usb. The product is excellent and am happy with it to manage my set but thats about it. I have my synth connected via stereo channels and 2 mics xlr and my guitar 1/4 channel and my drum I can only maschine but limited in terms to record. I recommend if you only want to manage your set but not if your after multitrack recording, best go for a firewire mixer.

    The delivery service was excellent and you the mixer has plenty of effects and channel inputs in front and the back. I have my krk 5 connected easily at the back of the main and subs 1-2 also. Product is nicely sized, not too big but medium in size that will not take so much of your desk space.

    Golden Review Award: 17 From Our UsersI bought this mixer with a view to starting out with some simple podcasting – there are smaller versions available, but I deliberately bought the extra capacity for when my projects develop and become larger and more complex.
    I’ve read reviews where people have slated these mixers for not having the stated number of channels, or such. It is a bit misleading. This has 4 mono inputs – XLR or balanced / unbalanced jack. Each of these gets 48V phantom power if you switch it on. There are then 5 stereo inputs (2 channels each) and a stereo subgroup. 4 + 10 + 2 = 16.
    Each of the channel strips is well specified with gain and compression on the mono strips, 4 band EQ AUX / FX Send – mute, solo, sub.
    Although you can send signals to off board effects processors, there is also an onboard unit with quite a range of effects.
    Strictly, i suppose it’s a PA mixer or for recording single take performances.
    I use mine with GarageBand and the output from the mixer comes into GB as a single stereo source. I record music and voice over separately on different GB tracks. A benefit of this mixer for me is that I can customise channel strips and leave them set, even though I might not be using them.
    Any music tech student or home recording musician would do well to look at Behringer kit – you’ll get great quality at a great price.

    Don’t be tempted though by the software package – much of the stuff is freeware and you probably have far better DAW / podcasting software already. If you use Mac OS X Lion, much of the free stuff won’t work anyway. The proprietary DAW package works well, but Macs have GarageBand which is far superior. Windows people, you’re also bound to have your favourite package also.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersThis product is ideal for the progessing music student or someone that wants to improve or explore their recording skills within a restricted budget. This product is versatile enough to be taken on gigs and give a really good sound for soloist or group performance. The size is ideal for most venues for those that are just starting out to do live perfomance.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersI decided to replace my previous Berhinger Xenyx mixer 802, for this 1622USB. It was worth the investment. This model is increble.El sound is clear. Multiple configuration options. Great capacity. The effects are very good. I recommend it.
