"Behringer XENYX 1204USB 12-Channel Mixer Review"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
If the size were a bit smaller, I'd be in heaven but not a big
deal; someday I will likely use the extra capacity available.
My main unrealized preference is for 24-bit USB resolution.
I get around it by plugging into the output XLR a 24-bit converter
instead of the resident 16-bit circuit. Results are strictly
studio-grade audio- as good as it gets.
Sound
Sound quality is very good for my purposes of high quality webcasting.
Features
I wanted a unit with many channels with compressors to make
the maximum audio capability easy to set and not have to
supervise. Overdriving digital audio circuits is disastrous
in terms of distortion- much worse than analog systems.
Ease of Use
Board layout is logical and intuitive.
Quality
This unit offers more bang-for-buck than others I could find in-class.
Compressors & equalizers & phantom for four of the channels does
the job!

"ATTENTION POOR COLLEGE MUSICIANS...."
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.

For the beginner it MAY be tricky to set up with your software. Try and find someone who knows what their doing to help you with setup

"Nice little mixer. Works great!"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
This particular mixer was a "returned" item at zZounds and I bought it from them at a very nice discount because of this.
The mixer is brand new. Not a scratch on it. All functions work perfectly! It's great for a DJ or small band. I'm very happy with it.
By the way, the guys at zZounds are FANTASTIC! They are ALWAYS extremely helpful when I call with my questions and concerns. I trust them with every purchase I make.

"You get a lot for the money."
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Over all it is good but the one thing that bugs me is the brightness of the power on light. I have to cover it with my finger in order to see descriptions of buttons near it. I think I am going to have to cover with something.
Sound
Product is a mixer and it does that real well
Features
Has many features I needed including the Phantom Power for my condenser mikes. Have not used it as a interface to my computer yet but I am anxious to try.
Value
Very good price for all you get

"Great item if your squeezed for money, excellent for home studio use. Sound is really nice for the price range."
Verified Customer

I hope it will last, I will always find a use for it although I may look for something else with more options.
Sound
For it's sound and price, which sometimes may lead to trepidation in a purchase, I was astounded by the sound this unit expresses.
Features
I purchased this item for what it offered in the description, it delivered.
Ease of Use
Very simple to use, took a little tweaking when recording through an external tube amp, yet very easy to clean up.
Quality
Recognized how solid the build is on this mixer right out of the box.
Value
Most definitely, I could have purchased another more expensive however, I wanted to save a few dollars and am not disappointed in my decision.
Manufacturer Support
Have not needed to contact support.
