Behringer XENYX 1002B Premium 10-Input 2-Bus Mixer with XENYX Preamps, British EQ and Optional Battery Operation, Black

Product Information

Setup was easy: set gains and mix normally, main output volume at unity (0), then outputting through Left and Right 1/4" unbalanced cables into one stereo channel of the main mixer. It comes with the power supply, or you can use 9-volt batteries, which aren't included in the package. Equipped with Behringer's premium XENYX mic preamps, it can easily hold its own against the most expensive stand-alone mic preamps, both in terms of sound quality and available headroom. The Behringer XENYX 1002B mixer allows you to connect up to 5 microphones and / or 4 stereo audio sources (eg. Neo-classic British EQ brings back the warmth and musicality of those 60s and 70s mega-console desks that made music history.

Although some countries use the term "jack" for just about any connector, in the UK its use is restricted primarily to the 1/4" jack plug.The 10-input, 2-bus XENYX 1002B has 2 XENYX mic preamps with phantom power, making it possible to use 2 dynamic or 2 condenser microphones in Channels 1 - 2 (or one of each). yes my main problem is I need more volts for my home made condenser mic’s they are a little thirsty for power and about 22 -23 volts is their threshold, the little mixer happily runs some Audio-technical PRO-37 mics without any problem, but they are happy with 9 volts and up, (they are Great for strings and pianos by the way). I would honestly be surprised if you could even fit 3 DRV134's into a 302 chassis, as it is usually pretty packed tight in there, then there is the issue of power. I have come to the same conclusion as you, the phantom must be a step up device, on battery it uses three 9v PP3 batteries, two run the mixer and one for the Phantom, and I agree keeping the voltage low-ish would help save battery power, but that’s no god if it can’t drive the mics, it is very rare I’d need battery power, but it does happen, my daughter got her first degree in music and I love to hear her, her second in the medical world as music rarely pays the bills, but a few weeks back she came across a piano in the middle of a field of sun flowers and of course could not leave it, the piano was in a terrible state as it had rained all night!

of breach by you (during the term of this Agreement) of any of your obligations under the present Agreement. The four stereo channels accept left/right or mono 1/4" TRS/TR inputs, and three of them also accommodate microphones (with separate Trim controls).balanced, high-headroom stereo inputs with 3 additional mic inputs, One post-fader FX send and one pre-fader MON send per channel for external FX devices and monitor applications. To be honest I don't know what advantages a ball-tipped jack might or might not have over a conical-tipped jack. The compact XENYX 1002B mixer also features our highly musical 3-band British EQ, plus an FX and monitor send for each channel, making it a must-have for any audio toolkit.

I chose this mixer over the Mackie Mix12FX because the Xenyx has sliding faders instead of rotary control, and one more XLR input. They are for representative purposes only and often show other items to indicate how the product can be used, accessories that are available or other models in the same range.I am so happy with the set up that suits my needs perfectly I have obtained a second 1002B with the intention of slaving them together by connecting the busses together, why not just get a bigger mixer I hear you ask? Channel inserts on main mic channels plus dual-input options on the stereo channels, faders- in addition to knobs, balanced outs for the mains, basic routing options,nothing fancy. Again, I played some noise into Pro Tools and opened up an RTA, and found that the signal was pretty much flat.
