My 16 and my dad passed away a couple months ago. He always used to play piano and my family would enjoy it. Even though I don’t know how to play piano or how to set things up. I’m trying to replace his place now but I’m still trying to figure things out. Thanks to videos like this i keep getting 1 step closer.
great explanation. thank you
very helpful, thanks for sharing, this video should have more likes for the 24k+ views
It this mixer relatively quiet? I need a small mixer to control the mains from my Tascam DP-32SD and I don't want a cheap noisy mixer. This is a toss-up between this mixer and the Yamaha MG06. Thanks
Does "Aux send" under each of the eq's mean that its sent to the aux output? Because i want to have my PC connected to the e.g. lines 3/4 and i have a condenser mic connected to the mic input, can i than hear the PC sound on my Phones with a bit of a monitor from the mic, while the output to the PC only contains the mic ?
Thanks. This was very informative.
+Luoyisi Shimisi Thanks for watching!
noterepeat speakers go in main mix right ?
Great vid 👍
Is it possible for the headphones to have separate volumes from the main out speakers? Can headphones with speakers at different volumes be heard at the same time?
I'm using the Behringer xenyx 802 mixerv and I wanted to use a powered sub through the mixer to have better control of the sound. I cannot figure out how this can be done, if you have any insight that would be awesome. I do run 2 tops out of the mains but don't know how to connect a sub to it through thhe type of mixer i own.
What about the Aux Sends, do they go to the headphones? Can you turn all the level off of a line with aux send all turned up and hear it for monitoring?
Good Stuff....Thanks!!! - 👍
Can Marantz Sterio be connected to home amplifiers? My RCA cable columns are output from the passive amplifier.
If I got it well, the Control-room and headphone are the same signal, tapped after the main control.
I guess it fits with most operations, but I would be VERY happy with a headphone plug wired BEFORE the main potentiometer, so that I can use the headphones with the main output a zero, what is handy to work at night with my keyboards and music on the PC.
Of course, I could switch the amplified-speakers off or put their input level at zero, except that I have no acces to any switch or knob on them.
Note that this behaviour is exaclty the same on the Berhinger XENYX802.
Because on the ZMX, they are 2 auxiliary channels (pre fader, I hope) I could possibly use them for the monitoring on the headphone, hence have 2 independant sterophonic output level channels :
- Aux1/2 for the speakers
- Main/ctlr-room/headphone for the headphone (hence, I don't need an external headphones amplifier)
I don't know exactlty how the monitoring system works on sterophonic inputs, but I don't think that the left will go on the Aux1, for example and the right to aux 2. It's more likely R+L on Aux1 and R+L on Aux 2.
So, if I want to keep the stereophonic separation on aux1/aux2, I need to use 2 monophonic line inputs for my keayboard, 1 and 2, for example, and set aux 1 send to 0dB and aux 2 to 0 on chan 1, and the opposite on channel 2 ...
That's a bit complicated and I would need 2 more monophonic inputs (chan 3 an 4) to plug the PC output with the same monitoring ...
On my Focusrite souncardI have 2 separated ouputs level control for main and headphones. Sounds easy ... I coud also plug the keyboard on line 1 ans 2, but the direct monitoring would be monophonic ... O course, I could launch a DAW on the PC ... Nothing is simple ... Maybe a Focusrite with additional stereo line inputs ...
It might not be relevant anymore since your comment is 2 years old, anyways in case anyone is reading, just some comments on what you wrote:
As far as I understand, Aux 1 is pre-fader (pre level) and Aux 2 is post-fader. Meanwhile Aux 1 is mono, while Aux 2 seems to be stereo (the quick start manual shows that with a Y-cable you can connect FX units which have stereo INs).
So, in case you don't use effects and want to listen with headphones, it should be possible to just plug the headphones into the Aux 2 out and you should have the stereo signal / pseudo-stereo for the mono channels. While you could turn down the main volume without affecting the phones level. You wouldn't have the Aux Return or Aux (cinch 2 track) on that mix though.
Maybe yet an easier solution might be: If I understand it correctly, the 'Aux to Main' button next to the MAIN level mutes the Main mix and instead only plays the Aux In (the RCA/cinch 2 track input, not the Aux return). But if nothing is connected to / coming in through Aux (RCA/cinch 2 track), the Main output should basically be muted. If we're lucky now, the Phones / Control room might still play the Main mix (but maybe this switch will also put the Aux to the phones so the phones would also be muted... don't know actually...).
Maybe a third solution: In case that the Aux Out (RCA / Cinch 2-track out, not Aux1/2) were not affected by the MAIN volume level, with an adapter cable, you might be able to plug headphones into that output. You wouldn't have a level knob for that though, thus your headphone would have their own volume knob or you would have to connect a headphone amplifier or so. I would think that it should be independent from the MAIN volume knob, as it is meant for recording and I would think that the recording volume should not be affected by how much you turn up the MAIN volume during a gig or so. But of course I'm not 100% sure. And in case it is not independent, of course you couldn't use it as it would be muted when the MAIN level is turned all the way down...
Maybe even the most simple solution would be to basically switch roles of MAIN and Control Room out. So you would plug you amplifier / speakers into Control Room out, and with an adapter cable, plug your headphones into the MAIN outs. That way you could turn down the headphones knob to mute your speakers, while you would still be able to control the headphones level through the MAIN volume knob.
Having said all that, I don't know whether there is a difference in volumes / impedance etc. between phones and line output and/or whether it is advisable to plug headphones into line outputs. But I think, basically it should work...
Does this mixer have great mic preamps for recording audio for RUclips channel?
So was the music connected to a phone or computer? Could I connect an electric guitar and play along with the music and control both volumes independently?
what are the fx sir? does it have delay echo reverb?
What cables did you use at Main Mix?
What sort of speaker i should use for this particular model any suggestions
How to send fx for headphone out? I can send fx for only main output. Please help.
Hello how are you? Your video was very informative. I thank you for that. Quick question, I just bought the same exact mixer with a LXR condenser microphone, what type of cables do I need to make work, I am having trouble detecting my mic on my laptop. Can you help me please. I am stuck. Thank you in advance.

Hello, I have an ALTO Professional zmx122fx and after some months the phantom power started to switch on and off and i can't use it. Does anyone knows why this happens and how can i solve it? Thanks.
I guess it should be covered by the warranty, shouldn't it? I think you should have 1-3 years of warranty (depending on the shop, regulations in your country etc.)
