XENYX X2222USBThe feature-packed XENYX X2222USB mixer allows you to effortlessly achieve premium-quality sound thanks to 8 onboard studio-grade XENYX Mic Preamps, and our ultra-musical “British†channel EQs – with a semi-parametric mid band for the ultimate in sound sculpting. And our easy-to-use “one-knob†compressors provide total dynamic control for the ultimate in punch and clarity, while respecting all the power and emotion you pack into every note. Add to this our 24-bit, dual-engine Multi-FX processor with 16 editable, professional-grade presets including reverb, chorus, fl anger, delay, pitch shifter and multi-effects – and the X2222USB becomes an incredibly versatile mixer for your live performances. | Sonically Superior Mic PreampsAll XENYX mixers have one thing in common – great-sounding, high headroom XENYX mic preamps. 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, XENYX mixers provide such transparent, crystal-clear performance you just might think someone upgraded your mics while you weren’t looking. | Studio-Quality Compressor – Stairway to HeavenOur studio-grade compressor is based on classic and famous studio equipment from the 70’s. This totally transparent and musical compressor design allows your full dynamic range to shine through until your signal reaches the compression threshold, which is indicated by the highly visible status LED. The compressor increases sustain and gently smoothens out signal peaks, which is especially handy when you’re laying down the funk, à la slap and pop – or hammering home your most-aggressive metal lines. The resulting output level lets you unleash powerful and impact-laden bass lines, while still sitting right where you need to be in the mix! |

Sublimely Musical British EQThe 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. | Built-in Digital Multi-FX ProcessorEquipped with our studio-grade 24-bit Multi-FX processor, the X2222USB gives you 16 mind-blowing digital effect presets such as delay, chorus and reverb. Time-based functions can be entered manually by pressing the Tap button in tempo with the music. Apply them to any channel, as well as to the monitors and main output. Of course, if you have treasured outboard gear you’ve grown attached to, the X2222USB lets you integrate them into the mix – bypassing the built-in FX processor. | Special Features…The X2222USB comes equipped with channel Inserts for all mono channels for use with outboard FX. All channels feature 3 Aux Sends: 1 pre/post fader switchable for monitoring/FX applications; 1 post fader (for use either with the internal FX or as an external send); Clip LEDs; Mute, Main Mix and Subgroup routing switches, plus Solo and PFL functions. Additionally, you get 3 multi-functional stereo Aux Returns and 2 Subgroups with separate outputs, for even more routing flexibility. |

This is a great product….. the problem is, is that I didn’t order it!
J’ai reue cette console en dix jours pas plus ! reue dans sont carton d’origine (d’occasion comme neuf) donc nickel mme l’odeur du neuf ! il y avais encore le plastique coller sur l’cran de l’effet, elle marche parfaitement, aucun souffle franchement RAS ! et le prix est tout fait honnte je cherchai une console pas trop chre pour mon studio (synths, boite a rythme , ordi) franchement si il y en a encore profitez en !
Lo llevamos utilizando tiempo y es una maravilla . Calidad estupenda lo recomiendo muy mucho
Behringer represent excellent value for money and quality engineering. This mixer is easy to use and very sturdy and I recommend this to you without hesitation.
Lots of options. I was a huge step up frome my old board. But well worth i
Nutze das Pult um fr Bandproben die Instrumente zu mischen und ber eine Anlage laufen zu lassen. Dafr funktioniert es supe
Conoscevo gi l’articolo, si confermato tale.
E’ un prodotto di qualit ad un prezzo accessibile a tutti.
I love it works very well l. The junk I bourg on wish I trashed it.
great price look like brand new . works well just need to figure the options for using the mixe
Bin voll zufrieden mit dem Mischpult. Preis-Leistungsverhltnis istsehr gut, kann ich nur weiter empfehlen.
Petite console excellent rapport qualit/prix. Effets intgrs un peu outranciers et assez peu ergonomiques rgler.
Pratique : les deux sub, les quatre entres lignes stro et les compresseurs en tte des voies micro.
Je ne peux encore rien dire sur la fiabilit.
Great mixer…. Just what I was Expecting. I love it.
Est del tamao que esperaba y cumple con las funciones que necesitaba. Nos mejor el sonido en un pequeo grupo musical que tenemos. Lo recomiendo.
I use this product for professional music band, high quality!
No la compren novatos, al menos que estudien muchos acerca de este equipo, ya que debers de conocer algunos conceptos que te permitirn explotarla lo ms posible.
Si eres semi o profesional, seguramente quedaras satisfecho con su adquisicin. Yo aprovech una oferta relmpago y estoy feliz de haberla adquirido.
eally great product a lot to learn using it but swee
The manual could be a bit more comprehensive. Other than that a decent mixer for the price.
Lieferung erfolgte sehr schnell, und das Preis-Leistungsverhaltnis ist auch sehr gut.
Kann das Produkt und den Hndler gerne weiterempfehlen.
As expected from this brand. We bought this to replace our old Behringer mixer (15 yrs old) that died at church the other day. It last and is a reliable brand. Is better than the Yamaha mixer we bought, that it got some channel damaged in less than a year.
Sehr einfach und doch eine gute Qualitt ob live oder vom pc es ist wunderbar damit zuarbeite
Great value for money and we’re making good use of it!
USED BEHRINGHER FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. USE AND INSTALL NO ONE ELSE.
I’ve done many gigs with this mixer now. It has worked flawlessly! great product!
Buen producto, construccin de buena calidad, excelente calidad de audio, no muy difcil de usar, el nico pero que le pondra (y talvez sea porque aun no descubro como) es que al conectarlo a la computadora no da los canales por separado para grabar, sino que solo da la opcin de derecha-izquierda
Ottimo prodotto, il cui nome parla da s, ad un prezzo molto competitivo.
Consegna nei tempi previsti.
used 1 time so far for live gig it performed great so far so good get a few more under my belt an we’ll see
Excelente mesa de mezclas, la X2222USB, aunque no es para uso profesional, sobrepasa mis expectativas. Los FX que incorpora cumplen con lo exigible. En general muy satisfecho, aunque an estoy evaluando todas sus cualidades.
Questo Mixer che ho acquistato funziona molto bene, io personalmente non sono un dj. ma un cameraman documentarista Freelancer. Ho acquistato questo prodotto per le nosytr feste Thailandesi, e mi serviva un mixer audio per controllare e mixare i vari componenti. Ottimo prodotto lo consiglio moltissimo.
Different fx sounds, I connect my dj controller to i
Ottima qualit Buon prezzo imballo non perfetto ma fortunatamente nessun danneggiamento
This is used for small meetings and musical performances at our church and I have fixed it to a wall. It is connected to a set of powered monitors and a loop system.
It is quiet, capable and compact.
Ottimo usato in ambito religioso molto potente, qualit audio molto buona non un prodotto per principianti, ma neanche considerato un prodotto professionale, no ho avuto problemi e lo uso da un bel po’
Molto professionale; aspetto coinvolgente e altamente adeguato alle prospettive di utilizzo. Ancora non lo provo in registrazioni dal vivo ma quello che ho potuto constatare in casa un apparecchio altamente sofisticato. Appena avr l’occasione di registrare un concerto live mi esprimer con cognizione di causa.
Qualit prezzo impareggiabile, io che faccio il musicista con la band con i suoi 12 canali sto alla grande , gli effetti voce non sono male
This is great and works well for what I wa
Vraiment heureux de ma console. Avec les effets en plus, c’est vraiment gnial pour un studio maison.
Quick, review, I’m very satisfied… I received it late yesterday. Set it up fairly quickly. The quick start multi-lingual manual is on the bad side of OK, but it did help me through initial level sets and some suggested functional configurations. Cutting to the chase, in my home “recording studio” I’ve got 7 mikes. I needed 3 channels going out to a PA with FX for voice and acoustic guitar, with all inputs going to the main mix. The X222USB’s SUB feature, outputs its own mix with FX. Main mix goes out to USB for recording. The X2222 is capable of doing a heck of a lot, and I expect to be doing some exploring. It was a great buy.
Quality, no latency when you use the inbuilt interface and a midi keyboard. Great range of inputs and so on. Great bit of kit !
I have absolutely no complaints. You’re get a lot of bang for your buck with this. Highly recommend the buy. There are a few YouTube videos to help you learn more about the product as well.
Nachteile: Kein Gain-Regler bei den Stereo-Inputs (nur +4, -10 dB schaltbar), 2 Track in ohne Eingangsregler fr Lautstrke, USB nimmt nur die Stereo-Summe ab, nicht die einzelnen Kanle, also kein Multi-Tracking am PC, Software nicht mitgeliefert
Fr den Proberaum und kleine Club-Gigs allerdings ein ausreichendes Mischpult mit hervorragendem Preis/Leistungs Verhltnis
This mixer is perfect for my drum kit. I am in heavan.
Quello che si ha con Behringer ormai risaputo. Buoni risultati se non si cerca un risultato professionale, ad un costo accessibile a tutti
Great board with lots of features. Really simple to setup and use. Using for a sound system in a clubhouse. Works great and you can not beat the price. I use a big Behringer board at church and it works great. Great brand and quality.
Ordine, spedizione e ricezione nel minimo dei tempi previsti.
Cette table de mixage est relativement complte, mais les explications concernant les branchements et les commandes sont vraiment insuffisantes, certaines explications sont mme inexistantes. Les schmas seraient peut-tre utiles, mais payants sur le web. Dommage, car bon produit.
Jacques Brunne
Behringer is great quality vs price. My band uses this for vocal mix works great at practice.
I’ve been using this to record live drums and guitars, for the price of it you definitely cannot beat it. Also love the built in effects and compression.
In my opinion, Behringer is a really good German brand for sound engineering. This mixer was well worth it and has all the controls I need for and in-house set-up as well as a mobile DJ set-up. For outputs, I use two self-powered speakers in the main out L/R, and two passive subwoofers L/R. In house I have a channel connected to the TV, one connected to Alexa, another to Aux, and a Mic input for karaoke. In a mobile DJ set-up, I have a stereo input for the DJ controller, an Aux (in case someone wants to connect their phone), and Mic inputs. I use condensor Mic’s for the studio which this can phantom power 4 of them. The built-in effect are also very clean and adjustable (e.g. deep batman voice vs high-pitch girly voice). I am yet to use this as a studio interface for recording podcast interviews. I currently use the Komplete Audio A6. which is $50 more, a lot more compact, but can only manage 2 condensor microphones, but can record multiple tracks. I have read from other reviews that this can only record two multi-track channels. I am yet to test the USB DAW recording.
This thing is awesome i love that i dont need an interface to plug into the compute
Couple of negatives (other than the delay in getting it): I think the onboard effects are less versatile than they were 20 years ago but still more than good enough for regular performance and different shape and sizes of venues. And the supplied power lead is very short; it barely reaches the floor at my preferred height but that’s a standard “kettle” lead so easy enough to source a longer one if you don’t have one lying around.
I supplemented with a hard case from another site (Thomann) to make sure it stays pristine and to protect the position of the dials and sliders. Well worth another 50 or so. Probably worth noting that this desk is no longer stocked on that site so perhaps a newer model is on the way or already out there.
But if what you want is a sturdy desk; good for performance; good enough for studio; I’d happily recommend this.
Somehow I overlooked the fact that it did not include the amp in the board and was frustrated to have to buy a separate unit. One more thing to lug around and fuss with. My mistake.
Lots of inputs. Several outputs. Levels for line in, compression, EQ…Main, Sub, and Control Room outputs. A bit daunting in the setup. Great features. I haven’t figured it all out yet. Definitely a step up from my bands old 4 channel PA.
I’ve had this mixer for about 5 months, and I just noticed a missing button (must have fallen off somewhere.) If I could find it or replace it, that would be nice.
The good: Very little noise. This gets the job done for a live performance. The price is unbeatable by any other competitor for the specs.
The bad: It can only output 2 channels to a computer via the USB port. (If you know a way in which I could get all channels from the mixer to Logic Pro, please drop me a line. Tks!)
I’ve read people giving Behringer a a bad rap, and maybe some of their products aren’t as good as others, but this product has more than met my expectations especially for the price point. I love the 5 band EQ, and the anti-feedback feature works amazingly well. The voice cancelling feature isn’t really that great, but it does knock down the vocals enough for karaoke on some songs. I guess it depends on how the songs were recorded. Other than that, it really is a nice board. The knobs don’t feel cheap, and they have a nice feel when you twiddle them. There is a nice resistance to them rather than some boards that are so loose you can’t peg them accurately. Digital readout for the FX is nice. I don’t use the FX , but they are not too shabby. Has many input options, more than other boards in this price range.
My only regret is that for $50 more, I could have got the one with 6 gain channels. I’m still happy with this one though. For $200, this one is a winner in my book!
Great “bang for your buck” mixer. Has all the features you need for a small band and live performances. You would pay twice as much for a Mackie / Yamaha and get the same features. Great value
This is just what I was looking for to replace my much smaller Behringer and Alto analog mixers. The fx are very sensitive and I am still playing with how to set them up for my voice and guitar. So far so good.
This is a step up mixer from my old 8 channel. This is a great piece of equipment for the money. If you have big plans however, you might want to put your money toward something a little bigger. As far as quality goes, it works great and I have not had one problem with it.
We purchased this for our son. He plays a variety of instruments and had wanted a good mixer. After doing some reading, we decided this one would do the trick. Our son has been very pleased with it.
Sound quality is very good. The board seems well-made and sturdy. There are plenty of inputs, which is something that was very important to him.
In terms of negatives, the biggest thing is there really isn’t much of an instruction manual, so getting familiar with it takes a bit of effort. Fortunately, everything is pretty well labeled and our son has worked with the audio production team for plays and musical performances, so he was able to figure it out.
My technical team are very happy with the range of facilities that the mixer has – very suitable for a theatre of our size
Let me explain: I’m a sound engineer and for live gigs also used a Mackie profx 16 channels that stopped working after three years, a Mackie VLZ 4 channel mixer (good, but there are no effects), a Soundcraft 24EFX mixer that has ok effects, but is heavy and too bulky and more expensive, and is not as easy to use. I also use the digital X18Air, but it has loads of issues with control, it keeps disconnecting from my Mac or iPad. I also have two Roland Octacaptures, a stinberg Cl2 for recordings, and the x32 (for big shows) and more non-mixer equipment, some on racks. This is my work.
This is the best (for small gigs) mixer I have ever used. Ever. The best. The only negative thing I can say is that behringer does not sell these faders (potentiometers), or at least I can’t get them here in Israel.
Read the manual, play with it.
Tips: never press a potentiometer with force. If you feel the slightest problem with the sliders, use a potentiometer spray, or it will ruin the potentiometer. Even a single sand grain can destroy a potentiometer, and render a mixer useless, so don’t use any mixer in places that sand can get in it.
Now after that review, can someone from behringer sell me some 60mm potentiometers?
O.K., except Aux. #2 has no right channel. Probably not wired correctly. I could probably fix this, but that would void the warranty.If that happens and there is some other issue, I can kiss the warranty Adios. No thanks. These are of German design, but – they are assembled in China by some 13 year old kid that doesn’t know s*** from shoe polish.
Used this mixer for the first time after purchasing in January, great mixer, no complaints, plugged everything in via a stagebox to the 8 XLR inputs with no problem as well as using the phantom powered mics! Very Happy
Ein klasse Pult. Preis und Leistung ist kaum schlagbar. Ein Stern Abzug wegen fehlender Software. Kann man nur weiter empfehlen.
I used this mixer for quite a while at my live sets. I just recently switched to the Ze 10FX form Allen & Heath, which fits my purpose better (more compact size, cue and built like a tank), but is also has less channels and is more expensive. So back to the Behringer:
The XENYX X1622USB it is well built and after 3 years, everything works like at day one. It may not take as much abuse as the A&H I just got, but If you handle it with care, it’ll go a long way.
Regarding the effects. There are plenty. I used the reverb and hall effects, which worked nicely for me.
The compressors and EQs sound good to me, too.
The USB audio interface does not need any drivers, and works like a charm on on PC, Mac and Linux. In the matter of fact, I use a tiny Linux netbook with Audacity to record my sets. – Please be advised, that you can only record the stereo sum and not all the individual channels in one session!
I like that it has a built in power supply, unlike some of its smaller siblings. I can’t say much about the phantom power, since I only use electronic instruments.
Truly one of my best purchases ever.
Perfect for all my home recording mixing needs.
I am using it to mix down into Cubase 5 and to dump to my Digital Recorder.
I ONLY use Behringer gear. Since 2009. This Mixer is Awesome! Love it. This is my 3rd mixer for my 3 Full Systems..ALL Behringer Powered speakers and Mixers. I DO WISH there was a Rack mountable Road Case for this unit and if there is, PLEASE tell me where I can get it!
Bit of a learning curve on some of the features, but after that this has been great. Works well, nice effects.
On the whole, tHis mixer peforms beautifully and Im very happy with my purchase. The are certainly more pros thans cons!
PROS
The Sub group is a nice bonus for me to supplement my basic home recording setup. I foresee that this could be useful for monitoring/recording vocals i.e. sending dry vocals through the sub group outputs (to a recording device) whilst monitoring the vocals (with the main mix) with reverb.
The compressors are nice and transparent. I feared that they might be “squishy” but they sound good to my ears.
Each main (Mic) channel has a mute, solo, main and sub group switch.
Each main (Mic) channel has 3 sends and an insert.
The phones/control room has a nice bank of switches to dictate what your monitoring through phones/control room outs.
Ease of use is worthy of note. I’ve been using it for a few days and already am confortable with most of the functions. Highly recommended for those wanting an introduction into PA/recoridng/mixing/live sound equipement.
CONS
The other built in effects are ok for the price, but each preset just seems too much. You can tame it by adjusting the channel and master send/return volumes, but the ability to configure one of the parameters would be nice. This can be overcome by inserting your own rev/fx unit. For my purposes, its a non-issue.
All the pots are plastic shaft types and probably PCB mounted. This not uncommon these days, but Im wary that if these shap, replacement will be tricky it not near impossible (hence 4 stars and not 5).
***Im aware of the USB in/out but deliberately not mentioned as I ahvent tested it. One youtube video suggested that the USB out can be configured so that each Mic channel is outputted individually via USB and therefore could be simulaneously recorded individually. I do suspect this to be false. I suspect the USB out only carries the stereo main mix L and R. USB is still useful for home pc recording though.***
Nicely organized board clearly labeled with colored knobs for quick reference allowing quick and easy mixing to get the best sound we have had yet.
This is a great mixer. Very quiet and the built in effects are decent enough. I can’t find any fault with this for the price range.
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.
A bit above me as far as tech goes, but a fab machine and looking forward to mastering it regardless of how long it takes.
Only issue we have had is needing to watch out for the FX some of them add buzz to your mikes.
8 mono and 8 stereo channels is more than enough for my needs which is why i didnt go for anything bigger.
build quality is pretty decent, mic preamps sound great. built in fx are good, as is the compression. the usb audio interface works a treat on my mac,
the ability to stream any channel directly into my DAW is incredibly useful. it doesnt do multi channel recording, which to me is no big deal, but to others it may be.
it just sends a simple stereo signal via usb. this was a big reason in making this my choice of desk, and it works brilliantly.
just keep in mind this mixer is 250 quid or less. not bad so far…
it has the usual fx returns which seem to work quite nicely with my virtualizer. it has 2 sub out channels too, which i use to pipe sound out to the input on my
e-mu e5000 sampler. samples directly from the desk, simple but useful.
the desk also comes with a cd full of useful plugins of fx and synths and a proper printed manual. which seems to be becoming an old school deal these days.
it also comes complete with rack ears too, useful.
i know behringer have had a bit of a dodgy reputation for gear, but this mixer, with all its features and flexibility, at this price? its worth every penny!
I used an EV RE20 microphone with the board to record voice tracks and send them to a computer running energyXT 2.5 Compact, the DAW software that comes with the board. I added mild reverb to the voice with the board, and used it to monitor punch-in edits and the overall mix. It worked seamlessly with energyXT, making the recording process much easier than it used to be when I was working with 16 tracks on 1 inch tape.
The final documentary used stock bird and environmental sounds and 15 years of photographs from Anasazi ruins to show what happened at Chaco Canyon, Aztec Ruins, Salmon, and other sites across the Southwest. While I didn’t end up using the board to live-record keyboard parts and synthesized drum tracks, it and the included DAW software made “Tracking the Anasazi – How Great Houses and Stripped Resources Led To Abandonment” very successful with audiences.
Within the two-channel stereo transmission limitation of the barefoot board, I highly recommend it. It and hardware like it have radically changed the face of recording from my last studio time in 1986. It made this project very easy.
