I use it for live bluegrass band performances to input into a 1000 Watt PA system and to record the performance. It is a very resilient unit that can take live outdoor performances and the normal abusive handling it gets. Sound is great, but there is a little noise with less sensitive microphones.

If it only had an ON/OFF switch!

The Behringer support people in Washington state are totally knowledgable of the products, and have developed supplements to the manuals that really make using the item easy.

With the Mics it is Clear and Clean, Each setting is just right.. This unit is Rock solid too, when it was shipped it was in a Box way too big for it, so it was banged around.. This is a great way to make sure something is going to work, since I do not take this on the road others may and this stood up to that. Sound can do no wrong.

The Inputs I needed a certain amount and Well this Fit my needs to the T. As for FX there is none built in but then the DSP2024 will fix that. My Base plugged in and it just worked. With that and the Mics it is very verstile and the Tape is best over all.

Just plug in the headphones and there you go. Right away fine tuning it to the needs. When I get it into the Broadcast it will be perfect with how it sounds. Learning this was a breeze.

Rock Solid!

Worth Every Penny

Personally did not need help to get this working excepting the right Plug to the Sound Card for broadcasting. That is all it does not show. This is the only limitation to my needs

Love its looks. Perfect fit for my Needs

Great budget mixer all though a lil' bigger than the cute 502.Sound quality is ok,but yu can't really expect complete silence from an analog mixer.bang for the buck.Basically I use it as a mic preamp and for extra inputs.The preamps work really well with high end condensors,but once i had to use a dynamic mic,and i really had a tough time fighting with the noise it produced.It's compatible with everything.Basic piece o equipment.Quality is not lost even when fully loaded.It's better for recording though i've not used it much on live occassions.I use M-AUDIO AUDIOPHILE24/96 for recording mic inputs alone and monitoring inputs from the control room.This mixer work very efficiently.There's the tape-to-ctrlroom option so u can use it to both record and monitor.One way of improving the 802 is by adding a power switch.But I guess only because the power unit is outside there is low noise.

For a mixer in this price range,it's packed with features allthough effects had to be externally connected.The seperate ctrl room out and main outs are a nice idea for such a mixer.

Amazing! Even a five year old can work with this.The manual goes as far as to explain some wiring details which is to be appreciated.The eqs work well esp. in case of mics.

Once again behringer has done it.Amazingly designed metal body which also has a stylish look.The blue power led does irritate me sometimes(lol).Very sturdy body which is actually meant for the road.I seriously doubt whether the various controls will work well in dusty conditions.

Redefines the phrase 'bang for the buck'.Go for it if you're outta inputs or own a bedroom studio of yours.

I've never had any direct experiences,as i've not had ANY problems with it.But i've heard they're quite friendly.

I don't know about anyone else, but this thing seems to distort at medium/high gain volume. With the pre-amp cranked, every word clips. Get anywhere near 6db output and it's distortion city. Fine for low gain, no good for high gain (like going into a compressor)

Features are actually very good.

Build quality is slighty better than mediocre. The metal casing is tough, but the feet are super-crap. The mixer always wobbles and slides when your turning knobs etc. Having no power switch was a seriously stupid idea.

It's ok for some applications, no good for others. For most instruments it seems fine. For vocals, it was no good at all.

Metal, rock, pop

I bought one and it was screwed up, I could be 2 inches away from it and it will sound like I'm on in the bottom of a trash can, I exchanged it, this one worked for 3 months then started doing the same crap.. poopoo mixer, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

CHEAPLY MADE

nobody was there to help

hip hop

Could of put more mic inputs but other than that it's a great value.

I really like the tape input.

I went out to buy the cables and plugged them in and it worked.

I love the way it worked it came clean of any dents or scraches.

This is a great value.

didn't need any support.

amazing hiss sound u can defintly hear the invisible amp that is suppose to be invisible...

nothing special just plug in your ins and outs and thats that....

very simple ins and outs nothing more nothing less

the imp couldnt been alot better built but for 30 bucks what more can u expect

as a simple little mixer it will do the job ...if the imp worked like it suppose to i would be a million times happy

dont need'em

For the price, the sound is great. It has an ever so slight bit of noise, but I use for live performances and so that is mroe than good enough. For a recording, it could be a problem.

For live performances with fairly small setups this is a fantastic mixer. Very small, and the price is great. I kindof wish you could monitor channels in the headphones though (like a DJ mixer), but I guess that would make it more expensive.

Very easy to use.

Very Sturdy.

For the price, its a great value.

Never needed any support.

Too much hiss. The pre-amps are invisible, but I can hear them, and they are noisy.

Its very cheap. It has all the features a budget mixer needs.

Built like most mixers.

Crackly pots, channels hisss....

Its very cheap, but don't even think about using it for recording.

No use for me. Except to learn about mixers a bit.

Noisy. Some of the pots are scratchy when turned. Hisses if any channel gain is turned up beyond half. Way too much noise for a recording situation. I'm returning this puppy!

Seems to have a lot of nice features for the price, but they features don't do any good if the audio isn't up to snuff. It isn't

Sound never really improved just made hooking stuff up easyer. and make sure the channels you are not using are turn all the way down our you will get tons of hiss.

The features are alright, its got mic preamp but real crappy. AND IT NEEDS A ON AND OFF SWITCH IM GETTING SICK OF UNPLUGGIN IT FROM THE WALL.

It seems well built

good price
