You have the best video on KZread!!! Great description!!! Just bought my SX2442FX and I feel much more confident after watching this! Thanks

This was very useful. We have just purchased one for our church, and really appreciate both of your viewpoints - from a knowledgeable perspective and also using the board in a live scenario. Much better than the manual which doesn't give the broadness of your tutorial. And also because you've thought through the 'noob' aspect it means we can use this as a trainer for all our future operators, Cheers J

This was really useful! Thank you! I bought a Behringer x1204usb last year, and have been mystified by the right-hand side of it! The user's manual does not help very much, but this video has given me a much better understanding of it.

when I first the video with the mixer I kinda got scared because of the knobs, but after watching ur video I actually got it and it was fairly easy to understand . Thanks !

I love your comments on the "Brittish EQ"!!! I would really love to hear you do the "get him to the greek" quote, "Hello, I'm Jeffery, I just moved in!" fun times! Good job on the review.

really good review and clear explanations - thank you for taking the time to put this together

This was the best tutorial i ever seen, good job. now i clearly know what's what.

the 502 is a great little unit for what it does. excellent also for routing duties, where you need to feed monitors from several sources.

Thanks for your time on this, Great Info!!!

Went To Guitar Center Seen A Bunch Of These So Wanted To See How It Worked :) Got Exactly What I Asked For, Thanks Man !

you have a great mic voice, and you are so fidgety! just like any sound engineer... just cant stop touching the knobs!!! This has been very helpfull and am off to watch the next part. Beringer should hire you. This is Good

0:30 ---> just bought that one, that you mentioned. It came in yesterday :-) The silvery - white is called: the SL 2442 FX - PRO. . thumbs up

Thank you so very much. I use this board for church. Learned a lot!!

Nothing wrong with your voice. I have the 2442FX and it's similar so got a few of my questions answered. Thanks.

Superb - no, I'll go further - super-berb, exposition, especially part 2. You, sir, are why the internet and youtube.

Thanks a lot for explaining it for a beginner like me..!

@rdev68 - yup - attach any external fx units Inputs to the send fx-send-sockets - return them via the channels (23/24) or if u want to eq the external fx units, return them via a full-featured stereo Line channel. A monitor stereo submix can be created using aux-1/2: Use aux-1 as left, and aux-2 as right - to pan something more left in submix, just turn up aux-1 (L) more than aux-2 (rL) etc - or use aux-1/2 as two seperate mono monitor sends

On the contrary I think you have a pretty damn good mic voice. Its actually been one of my favorite parts about your videos. Very relaxing and chill. May not be a good game show host, but who the hell wants to sound like that anyway. I hate when I'm watching reviews - particularly the company "official" videos - when you get that corporate sounding autobot type of voice with the high pitched inflections and artificial sittin on a rainbow kind of tone.

I've just got the X1622USB - somewhat smaller than the 24 in the video, but the basic set up is the same - bells, but not perhaps the whistles of the 24. This video is great - far more helpful than the manual or the Behringer promo sales videos. Cheers

Your mike voice is very good !, a cross between John Peel and Bob Harris I thought. . Thank you, a great video.

Great review!!!

Excelent way to explain! Thank SO MUCH!!

Great review,

very informative liked the two vids going to buy one for the band now as its outputs are awesome.could you tell me if your using the mono out for subs does it take the low end hertz off your top speakers automatically.

Thank you, that was very helpful :)

Have a smaller Xenyx mixer - 1832 - but enjoyed your vids on these bigger-boys, and have found them helpful and informative. Keep up the brilliant work. And aren't we ALL Noobs at some point?? :)

Hi, I know thus is an old video, but you knowledge is timeless. Thank you for delivering it in such an organized manner. I got a question for you. I know u call it a small mixer all the time but, I need a really small mixer with all this routing options and for that to be possible 8 or 10 channels would be more than enough. But all this smaller units try to give u the most amount of channels they can squeeze in but they take out the many routing possibilities. Which is what a mixing console should be made for. Versatility. Any particular model come to mind? I happen to have a zenyx 802 usb and it has the right size for me, but I would love to have pre fader sends. I would love to have inserts. No mixer has them in such a small footprint. It eould ve great if u could enlighten me. The pre sends I would use for fx loop that need to be 100% wet signal, like distortion and stuff. The inserts to half click and use as independent outs should the need arise. Please help me 🙏🙏

Awesome instructional skills. No B.S. about ANY non-relative subject matter. Now could you tell me where to find vids on the best installation of various components like vocal processors, dual channel EQ, and multiple amps. to this model? I'm Old'scool rocker got my first guitar in June of 1969. I'm pretty tech savvy and can fix most anything. But this thing was going on the shelf and break out one of the old ones because every time I added a component it behaved differently (not better) I was thinking that's why I got it for $75 but knew that I wasn't getting something right because several of those configurations were sounding good but when I added something else without changing settings it wouldn't let out a peep. The manual is garbage. And up until I found your channel the internet was useless. Thank you once again. liked, subscribed, fan for life...

hi...are this is direct usb connect to the commputer....

You can go from the Behringer to the Pro40 via the Main Outs on the Behringer to 2 Channels on the Pro40 but you'd only get 2 channels going to your DAW (even if you have 18 mics plugged in to the Behringer). If you don't need anymore that 16 channels I'd suggest getting a Focusrite Octopre and connect that to the Pro40 via ADAT

I can't say I have anything that fancy, but for my own personal recording, I recently added the Behringer Xenyx 502 to my PC based rig. It's a very small, but useful, unit for the money.

Well, it certainly added to what I can do. Before, I just had non-realtime editing software and a soundcard. Now, I have better software, a digital audio interface, and the 502. Opens up a lot of potential. And once you start understanding the signal chain, the big mixers are not as scary as they might seem at first glance. Just more inputs and better features, but the basics remain the same.

@MemoriesofSunday - you are very welcome.

Hi! Fantastic videos and excellent information! I just bought one of these boards, and I am very much interested in the technique you briefly touched on whereby you can use a specially wired plug in the insert-I/O for a sort of makeshift direct out recording. Is there a name for this technique? An where can I find more information on this? Thank you!

@9:10 when talking about the 1/4 'output', thats just for a direct channel out correct? will that take the mixed output of that channel? And what exactly do you mean by 'wired the right way'. I just found a sliver sx2442fx. It looks great, haven't broken it out yet. Great videos. Thanks so much.

A good review and tutorial, although I admit I started feeling a little sick at the end with the constant moving and zooming in of the camera - not much you can do about that though really as you have to do it to show which bit you're talking about. Something that I am still lost on is the aux sends. I'm in a band that needs at least 4 aux sends to go to monitor wedges or in-ear monitors. BUT, the mixer didn't seem to have channel control for each aux out. How do you do 4 seperate monitor mixes, 1 for each wedge monitor? E.g. The singers, who need more of mic 1 and 2 (singer 1 & singer 2) but less lead guitar and less bass. As a drummer, I want primarily kick and vocals followed by bass and then rhythm guitar. I can't see how this can be achieved, and can't find and videos that discuss this. If you've got 4 monitors and FoH, that's effectively 5 different mixes, isn't it? Thanks. Ed.

i{m really into this console. i really like all the features it has, but my only conscern is the amount of channels it has. Dear friend, is this mixer with a less amount of channels, or maybe a similar mixer with the majority of these features but less channels. im looking for a 12 to 16 imput channels. Thanks for your response on this.

If someone was to turn up the vocals which one would turn it up if they're on panel 15 and 16

Hi, loving the video. I have this same mixer exactly and something is really strange about it. I have tried EVERY single routing combo I can think of for the built in effects and this piss annoying buzzing and interference noises (every effects has a different noise) coming from the processors. I have NO CLUE why it's happening. I've used them perfectly fine before but do you have any ideas of what it can be??

i have a behringer ub1204 mixer, numark 3ch mixer but wanted to know how to hok it up since it has 1/4 cables and xlr inputs etc... im trying to put the behringer mixer, stereo phono amp, numark mixer, gemini power amp, yamaha reverb unit and xlr stage mix to all be hooked up, i have 12 PA subwoofer and mids, can anyone help???

Hi. If I wanted to use this mixture in conjunction with a DAW such as Ableton would I be able to control my software mixer easily from this mixer? What interface would I need? I basically just want to control levels and Aux/Fx for Dubbing purposes. Cheers

I see you posted this one, a long time ago and i've just only seen pt1 in 2019 hehe. But it was a good watch for a 41 noob, are you still using this mixer or got a new one allready? Greets

Hi. Liked the review. Im new to mixers but i was wondering if you can help me out. What is the BEST, UNDER $100 mixer for a small 2 monitor PA system? i just want to mic vocals, no instruments, just so that vocals can be herd through the monitors. Its for band practice in a small room. Thanks you -Jerry

Thanks one more I know these are beginner questions but by doing that i can a mix for each member?

How would I run IEMs for 6 band members which would be 2 electric guitars, bass, keys, acoustic guitar and drums

Can I record separate channels at once to reaper. and if not what do you recommend.

Thought I was going to go "mental" due to the "ADD Cam!" lol

I just found your video. Thank you for making this for those of us just learning, or, in my case *trying* to learn. Can you tell me the answer to this: I have 12 microphones on my drum and percussion rig . I have 9 of the mics on the drums, 1 mic for tubular bells, 1 mic for both timpani, and one mic for two gongs. What size mixer would I need to connect all these mics--and possibly two more overhead mics which I would like to add--up? How many channels from mic to mixer does this require? The reason I am confused is, a 10 channel mixer doesn't have ten channels for 10 separate mics, right? This where I am confused. Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

you just need a mixer with one mic channel for each mic. simple. Some mixers with "16 channels" might have 12 mic channels and then 2 stereo line channels, making 16 channels in total, so just look for total mic channels in the specs.

11:00 i/o into direct outs , would that get the the sound pre or post fader and FX ? could you do a video on how to do it ? Great Video's by the way

Line inputs can be stereo going through a single channel ? or are we just allowed to pan mono signals ?

Excellent videos on this board. I have the SX3242FX and have some channels that intermittently stop working properly (Acts like the gain is turned up all the way on the channel, or "pops" and must be muted to shut it up). It it likely that dirt has found its way inside and how would you recommend cleaning it?

if you go down the channel twisting the pots one by one, does ONE pot cause the jumping in volume / popping? if yes, then thats the faulty one, they can be replaced of course, but it'll be all board mounted so a strip down is required... not for the fainthearted. otherwise is it the fader?

Hi! I hope i can ask you an question here. Do you know why the digital effect processors get blocked when i connect the output of my (external) FX unit to the 'stereo aux returns'? I have two external units. When i connect the output of my 1st unit to the 1st stereo aux return, the first internal fx1 cannot be heard anymore (fx2 still works at this point). Now, when i plug in my 2nd FX unit in 'stereo aux return 2', the 2nd internal fx processor also quits producing audio. Are you familiar with this behaviour? I received the unit today, and i was hoping using the internal effects along with my external units. I could of course ignore the stereo returns, and just use 4 mono inputs (i have plenty!) but i am wondering what's going on here (and if this is normal behaviour). I hope you can help me out! Thanks!!!

you can send the MONO out to the bass and the main L/R to the mid/high. If they are active cabs the crossover will be built in, if passive feed the crossover from the L/R. The MONO out has a Low-pass which starts at 300hz so you can tune that to whatever low end you want from the bass box/es. Or dont use the MONO out & just feed the speakers from the main L/R only & use their own built in crossovers if active & serial connect them as usual.. or feed the man L/R out into the crossover if passive
