Transparent Connections in Spades.

The X1204 USB utilizes Xenyx preamps which offer up to 130db of headroom. Pretty impressive. The huge bandwidth it covers ranges from below 10Hz to well above 200kHz so you can capture the deepest bass tones and highest vocal solos with confidence. Best of all, you get 12 of ’em built right into the XENYX X1204USB.

Remember the warmth and dialed-in tone of those timeless recordings of the 60s and 70s? Behringer included British-style EQs so you can achieve the same outstanding and timeless tones.

Effects? Yes It Has Them.

The XENYX X1204USB has a 24-bit effects processor that provides up to 16 unique settings that can be applied to all the channels. Need more reverb? Less echo? More warmth? Simply dial it in with the same onboard effects house in Behringer’s higher end digital mixer.

Sonically Superior Mic Preamps

All 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. Behringer X1204USB XENYX preamps offer 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.

Behringer X1204USB: Now with Sublimely Musical British EQ

The 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.

One-Knob Compression

Ask professional sound engineers what their favorite piece of external processing gear is and the majority response will be virtually unanimous–dynamic compression. What is compression? We’re glad you asked. Compression essentially limits the dynamic range of a signal, lowering the level of loud sounds and turning up softer sounds, to achieve sonic balance. But applying compression is a delicate art that many novice, and even intermediate, sound techs have great difficulty mastering. Our “one-knob” compression is available on all mono channels and is easy to operate, even for entry-level users. With this one knob, you can easily dial in the perfect amount of compression for instruments and vocals, creating powerful mixes with punch and clarity. This is indeed a rare feature for products in this class–but standard on the Behringer X1204USB Mixer.

Effective FX

All XENYX USB Series mixers (except the 1204USB) feature our new 24-bit dual engine FX processor, with 16 editable, studio-grade presets including reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, pitch shifter and multi-effects. Complete with a highly accurate input meter, these effects can be altered to your personal taste via the Parameter control. Time-based functions can be entered manually by pressing the Tap button in tempo with the music.

Recording Bliss

There was a time when the recording process called for lots and lots of expensive gear, which meant the average musician had to buy time at a recording studio–and that time was pricey indeed. But modern technology has put personal recording well within the reach of virtually anyone with access to a computer. How do you get all that music flying around your brain into your computer? That’s where the Behringer X1204USB comes in. Thanks to the built-in, bi-directional stereo USB audio interface, you can connect any of these mixers directly to your PC or Mac computer via a single USB cable. Now any signal source you connect to the mixer can be recorded directly to your hard drive. Which brings us to software…

Free Would Be Nice!

Because you’ll want to take full advantage of the XENYX USB Series mixers’ recording and podcasting potential, we’ve thrown in a massive software package to the Behringer X1204USB that includes Audacity (the most popular open source audio editor), Podifier, Juice, Podnova and Golden Ear (a great selection of podcasting software). You’re ready to go live on your PC or Mac computer right out of the box! You also get more than 100 virtual instruments and 50 FX plug-ins, turning your computer into a complete home-based or mobile recording studio from input to output.
