Reviews around price (5.00 of 5)

  • Based on my research, the price for this mixer is very reasonable for the quality and I would purchase it again
  • great price and great customer service at behringer i use the tape in and tape out to connect to my computer with ease.
  • The mic pre's are good, and the EQ on the first two channels are very nice (again, lookit the PRICE).HAPPY, and would recommend for a similar application.

Reviews around mic (5.00 of 5)

  • a little noise if you have the mic gain and mic
  • I just like to use a good mic to get good voice audio into my computer
  • I however purchased this mixer for use in a very simple PA setup, with two Samson SCQ6 Dynamic Super-Cardioid Handheld Mic and a computer audio input via RCA cables, and utilized a single stereo mix

Reviews around item (5.00 of 5)

  • Those two items are not enough to give this a particularly bad rating because it is the mixing and features that are top weighted items to review

Reviews around quality (4.33 of 5)

  • TO INTERFACE IT WITH THE MAC VIA 1/8" AND THE SOUND QUALITY IS GREAT.
  • Minor things but enough to annoy you as to why they did not design better
  • The sound quality, inclusion of two high quality phantom power inputs, and configurability make this ideal for podcasting
  • For this simple setup this product provided user-friendly operation and an adequate sound quality
  • Behringer has found a niche in the low-cost/good quality area.

Reviews around audio (3.95 of 5)

  • Also, if the product I'm testing is an external device I need a way to handle its audio as well.
  • Minor things but enough to annoy you as to why they did not design better
  • I just like to use a good mic to get good voice audio into my computer
  • This mixer meets all of these needs, works with both +4 and -10 signals, and has excellent audio characteristics in its line level paths.
  • Still working well as of right now after a having had it for a few months.

Reviews around level (3.86 of 5)

  • Ch 1 seemed to work for testing with an XLR feed from my PA, but I still had to add gain (knob half way up), and volume up almost all the way on that channel as well, and I know my signal level is great coming into this board.
  • If you record into software, that will give more precise levels if needed
  • These lack EQ, but do have adjustable level and balance
  • A five-segment LED indicator displays audio level, and an AC adapter is provided
  • While I am unsure of what sort of PA system that only requires a $100-class mixer has a proper control room, it is a convenient feature to have two pairs of stereo outputs, and can eliminate the need for a distribution amplifier (costly) or Y-cable (inexpensive but degrades signal level and signal/noise ratio) on the output

Reviews around feature (3.75 of 5)

  • Still working well as of right now after a having had it for a few months.
  • I was given advice to buy some that were pricier, but I liked the compact size and features at the price this one was selling for

Reviews around input (3.75 of 5)

  • I however purchased this mixer for use in a very simple PA setup, with two Samson SCQ6 Dynamic Super-Cardioid Handheld Mic and a computer audio input via RCA cables, and utilized a single stereo mix
  • Most critical, as Behringer promises, the inputs are very clean
  • It's great/ideal for a dual mic set-up, as only two of the channels can adjust hi/mid/low, and the remaining 4 inputs can only have the pan and volume adjusted
  • Most critical, as Behringer promises, the inputs are very clean

Reviews around product (3.68 of 5)

  • When it worked it was an amazing product, but because of poor customer service I'm going to have to give them a bad rating.
  • not comfortable because the product came defective, I could not return questions distances.
  • So, don't be too surprised if you get a dead one (I average about 1 dead Behringer product for every 10 I buy!

Reviews around light (3.22 of 5)

  • This is difficult in dark settings because the adapter's connection is keyed so as to only fit in one way (does not rotate), but the label at the top is so faint as to be not visible except under bright and direct lighting
  • There is also a very bright blue LED light on the top which is lit when it is plugged in that becomes very annoying
  • The glaring power light may be an advantage as it could be viewed for miles and would remind you to turn it off maybe
