Review: Performance Mixer - I bought this mixer with a view to starting out with some simple podcasting - there are smaller versions available, but I deliberately bought the extra capacity for when my projects develop and become larger and more complex. I've read reviews where people have slated these mixers for not having the stated number of channels, or such. It is a bit misleading. This has 4 mono inputs - XLR or balanced / unbalanced jack. Each of these gets 48V phantom power if you switch it on. There are then 5 stereo inputs (2 channels each) and a stereo subgroup. 4 + 10 + 2 = 16. Each of the channel strips is well specified with gain and compression on the mono strips, 4 band EQ AUX / FX Send - mute, solo, sub. Although you can send signals to off board effects processors, there is also an onboard unit with quite a range of effects. Strictly, i suppose it's a PA mixer or for recording single take performances. I use mine with GarageBand and the output from the mixer comes into GB as a single stereo source. I record music and voice over separately on different GB tracks. A benefit of this mixer for me is that I can customise channel strips and leave them set, even though I might not be using them. Any music tech student or home recording musician would do well to look at Behringer kit - you'll get great quality at a great price. Don't be tempted though by the software package - much of the stuff is freeware and you probably have far better DAW / podcasting software already. If you use Mac OS X Lion, much of the free stuff won't work anyway. The proprietary DAW package works well, but Macs have GarageBand which is far superior. Windows people, you're also bound to have your favourite package also.
Review: Super value. Everything you need why pay more? - I think this is a great mixer. It's my second Behringer mixer. My previous one, a UB1204FX was used almost daily for 10 years. It's still going strong, but is just a bit too small for the needs of our band. I use the X2442USB for recording and as a live desk for my band. It's a great design and offers all that I need from a mixer. The thing with gear like Behringer is that it has to be judged in the context of it's target application. Affordable stuff like this just didn't exist a few years ago, so for gigs we would all be plugged into some massive 4 channel Peavey or HH PA heads which might have a spring reverb if you were lucky. Home recording was on a cassette porta-studio if you could afford it. Now with gear like this we can get pro-quality functional gear at a very affordable price. I am an ex sound engineer who spent many years in recording studios in the 80's and 90's. In those days only huge SSL desks had compressors on every channel, and many of the 'pro' digital reverbs we had didn't sound as good as the effects on the X2442USB. The effects are a little noisy, but quite useable if driven hard enough, more than good enough for live applications. I really like the compressors, not much control, but the settings are a good compromise of attack and compression ratio. EQ is functional and adequate. I tend to use plug-ins on my DAW for recording anyway. Direct channel outs are a great addition, and 4 aux sends is a luxury. It's just a really well designed desk which covers everything I need t for. Sure it's no Neve, it's not as quiet and has more crosstalk than the real pro stuff, but really, in the pubs and clubs we play, or on the MP3 recordings we make streamed online, i defy anyone to tell the difference.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can you get the audio to your pc through usb on this mixer?**
A: Alistair... I managed it using an older Mac G5 and CuBase. Previously, I used an Alesis iO4 as an interface but the Behringer desk (which we mainly use for LIVE work) worked in exactly the same way. You come out from the USB output from the desk straight into your computer and then assign in what ever recording programme you are using. This is the tricky bit though so consult your recording programme manual to work out how best to get your software talking to your mixing desk. Recording a drum kit just using 4 inputs on the old interface was limiting and offer no pre-EQ but the Behringer desk gives you all you could want. Hope that helps. Paul

**Q: Did anyone manage to set this as a default playback device through usb?**
A: Yes, use it regularly for music and powerpoint presentations with sound and video

**Q: What is the height of the unit at the back, up to the top of the unit, not including the knobs? Need to know what size mixer rack flight case I need.**
A: 140mm

**Q: is it possible to use this as a control surface in a daw? so if i move a slider it actually moves on the program? thanks**
A: No, it's an audio mixer only, the USB port is only there to output a mirror signal of the master analog output (at 16bit-44Khz) in digital form.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Noisey when I add my high quality, large diaphragm mic
*by R***N on 14 October 2025*

This Behringer XENYX X1222USB Premium 16-Input 2/2-Bus Mixer is working ok but i find it really noisey when I add my high quality, large diaphragm mic or when using certain apps on my PC. There is also USB connectivity, onboard effects and subgrouping amongst many other features and overall it is a good product but i have to remove one star from my rating because that noise it makes is really not cool.
