"Solid battery and AC-powered mixer for the price"

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
If you looking for an inexpensive mixer with battery power, good sound, and a great deal of flexibility with inputs and outputs, you can't go wrong with this unit. For camcorders with mini (1/8-inch) stereo inputs, you will find that this fits the bill. Just use an RCA-to-1/8-inch Y cord and you'll be good to go. It is not compact, which is the cost for having so many channels and knobs, but portable nonetheless.

Sound
Just recorded a live show with a condenser mic and a feed from the main mixer...all channels came in very clean.

Features
Has the features most folks would need for a portable mixer...including plenty of XLR & 1/4-inch jacks, RCA inputs/outputs, phantom power, trim, and battery-powered operation (as an alternative to using the included power supply). I agree with the previous reviewer that I would like see level indicators for each channel...there is only a clip light. Also, a battery level indicator would be nice. The only indication of low battery levels is when the mixer turns off ;) The other knock--although not a biggie for me--is that phantom power can only be turned on/off for all channels.

Ease of Use
If you have some experience with mixers, I think you'll get up and running quickly--without looking at the manual.

Quality
The product feels solidly built. With that said: - I occasionally found the power button flaky read more in powering up the unit, but not a huge deal. But once powered up, the unit stayed on. - Installation of the 9V batteries is slightly challenging. The battery compartment is plastic and provides a very snug fit. If you hastily install/uninstall the batteries, I could imagine a piece many snap off. But with care, I don't think that will be an issue.

Value
In the $100 price range, I don't think you're going find a mixer with such a robust set of features and good sound.

Manufacturer Support
Since I've had no problems, I'll give Behringer a 10 until further notice ;)

The Wow Factor
The sexiest thing about it is its price.
