Both parts of the tutorial was very well done and clear! I've just purchased a Behringer Xenyx 2222usb mixer and this helped me understand most of the features & nuisances of the board. I am by no means an expert so this definitely helped me out!
Thank you! I have got to the stage where I know enough to know how little I know (despite stumbling my way through mixing open mics for several months now!) which is just enough to start to understand these things you are teaching. SO VALUABLE! Thanks
Thank you so much! I just got QX1204USB and I'm learning so much from your videos. Excellent content and great presentation. I'm completely new to this space and your videos have been extremely helpful!
Good video! This Behringer is routed almost exactly like my old Mackie 1642VLZ Pro, right down to the configuration of the AUX returns. I use the AUX sends and returns for quadraphonic recording and playback of my reel to reel.
This video / series is very detailed and informative...... but....... I have the Behringer 1204 USB (without FX). It is just different enough that I am thoroughly confused. Even the manual from Behringer skips over the operation and function of the "phones/CTRL ROOM" operation. This is my first ever mixer and I have no formal or informal training. RU-vid seems to have a lot of tutorials on the X1204 USB, but nothing much on the non effects version. How would you suggest that I learn how to use my equipment? I am in Southern California. Thx.
Wow, sorry to hear that you're confused, but I understand. Audio is often confusing at first. I'm always available for virtual training/consultation if you like. The best way to contact me is via my business email: proclaimavllc@gmail.com
I loved this. But at the end, you showed the FX out connection and all you said was this was really handy. Can you give me more detail on that and how that works? I have a Mackie ProFX 16 and I have that but I'm not sure how it is used. Thank you.
If you aren't using the onboard FX, you can the FX like a 4th Aux mix by using this output. This will bypass onboard FX sending the mix to whatever you patch to from the FX out.
Great videos, I just purchased this same mixing board so it was really beneficial to me. For the Direct outs can I use that to go back out to like a bass amp or a guitar amp? I realize that I'll only be able to control the part going through the mixer to the mains
Can I use the Control Room Outputs for additional FOH speakers? I'll just mirror the main mix on it, will the audio quality be different vs the main outs? thanks!
I am setting up a worship space in the concrete basement. I have gifted to me a TOa 212. I have 16 homesite panels to place on walls to help kill the echo. Any suggestions would be helpful. It is a very long and wide space. I want to put the stage on the long wall. Where should I set up my pa speakers?( far apart? Or close to stage at an angle? Thank you. Excellent training video.
Consulting is available, check my website for more information. As you can imagine, I get so many of these questions, I can't answer them all unless they help support my family. Glad the video was helpful and thanks for watching!
I don't have a board to play with (it's on backorder) But we're getting the Behringer SX2442FX. I believe you touched on it but, we need several monitor mixes. Can you use one of the effects buses as a monitor bus? What about using a sub as a monitor send?
Hi Frank. Yes you can use the FX aux as a monitor feed, just patch in on the back to bypass the onboard FX processor. I talk more about that in the first video starting here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T1y8cjigI4Y.html By the way you can use the the Submixes for monitors but you only have the same mix as your main mix, no individual channel control, only volume control. Thanks for watchin' !
This is more of a live sound mixer and less a recording mixer. I suppose you could put the stereo output into your Focusrite and then record with the DAW.
hi Tim in your previous video you talked about mid EQ and frek. when you have fed back how do you find the frequency and know which channel it's coming from, thank you. Bill Russo
Hi Bill, good to hear from you! Excellent question. I generally use an app on my phone. Since I'm an Android user, I recommend Spectroid by Carl Rienke. It's free. For my iPhone try RTA Audio app which is free as of this comment. Just make some feedback and it will show you what frequency the feedback is on. Thanks!
I have a problem with the same mixer, i.e. the vu meter shows no signs of life when I start a signal from any channel, for example, to start music I use a cable that enters the mixer in the stereo channels with 2 jacks and an aux on the phone, clicking main and raising both faders "main and the channel fader" the vu meter shows no signs, I don't know where to turn
@@proclaimav4197 I have checked over and over again and there are no more clicked buttons, I will try to check again, but I don't think this is the problem. Rather I have a friend who has a mixer of a different brand and to see the vu meter give signs from the main a specific button has to be clicked, if this is also the case on behringer, what would it be?
You can, but unfortunately Sub outs don't let you adjust volume individually per channel, they're just a reflection of what the main Faders are doing. Aux Out is a better choice because each channel has its own adjustment knob. For a mono signal into head phones check out the Behringer P2.
QUESTION FOR YOU: Apart from using the USB out - how can I output from the mixer to a computer (ultimately into Reaper) ? Thanks for a solution you can offer.
