What's Wrong With the Behringer Q802USB Mixer and How to Fix It
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 авг 2024
- When using the USB as your input and output, you can't hear audio in both directions. Let's fix it! ► All gear linked below*.
The good news is I found a few ways to use this mixer to monitor both the incoming and the outgoing audio. Despite this limitation, it's still possible to monitor both sides!
Option 1 - Mix-Minus
The first solution would be to remove the USB from the audio chain. One of the nice features of the Q802USB is that it provides you with an auxiliary channel (labeled FX Send). Using the mixer in a classic mix-minus setup enables you to monitor the audio in both directions because you are not relying on the USB connection.
Audio from the computer is being sent into an available channel on the mixer and audio from the mixer is being sent out the FX Send, minus the channel that has the computer audio on it. To understand how this works and to setup a mix-minus for yourself, see my complete guide and video.
There is another nice advantage of going with a mix-minus setup that actually brings the USB back into play. because you are not using the USB for Skype or other VOIP software, you can record all the audio from your mixer into audio recording software (Audition, Audacity, etc.) using the USB connection. This is great option for recording your interviews, podcasts, etc., on the very same computer that you are using Skype on.
Option 2 - Splitting the Headphones
The next option is sort of a hack but I was very happy that it worked. If you still want to use the USB as your input and output for Skype, you can monitor both directions by using a Y-cable to split the 1/8" connection of your headphones to 2 1/4" leads that will pull audio from the phones (Skype) while at the same time send your own audio into your headphones via the Main Out.
The Main Out on the Q802USB always receives all analog inputs. Therefore, by plugging one lead of your headphones into the Main Out, you will be able to hear yourself. At first it may feel strange to have yourself in one ear and your guest in the other but with time you may actually come to prefer monitoring the audio this way. You can more easily pick out which side contains any audio issues.
To create this split headphones setup, you'll need a female to female adapter that fits the size of your cabling. In my case, my headphones have a 1/8" male lead and the Y-cable has the same. The adapter allows me to make the connection between the headphones and the Y-cable.
Once you've created your split headphone cabling, place one 1/4" lead into the Phones output and one into the left side Main Out.
In the USB routing section, leave both buttons in the up position if you want to also use the USB to record into software.
Option 3 - Splitting to a Recorder
Another option is much like the last except in this setup, you don't need the female to female adapter.
Use a Y-cable like before, plugged into the mixer the same way (one lead into Phones, one into Main Out) and plug the 1/8" lead of the Y-cable into an audio recorder.
From there you would monitor the audio on the recorder itself which is receiving both sides of the audio.
Option 4 - Software Monitoring
The final option is the least favorable. If you are using Skype recording software that allows you to monitor the incoming audio such as Audio Hijack, you monitor both sides of the Skype call.
When you enable monitoring in Audio Hijack, it sends back your own audio albeit with some latency.

Hello Ray, Thanks for the video, after reading almost all comments down, the video inspired me and As an amateur user, I also would like to share my observations and experiences for other friends ;
I bought it 3 years ago for the it's price and little size. Before I had same but 12 channels one.
This little mixer is sound quality wise quite good , almost zero hiss or distortion and very capable for both recording and small gigs/ rehearsals. Note: if you have any noise , firstly please check the empty input channels' gain knobs.
a) For music recording ( up to my knowledge and experience)
it is only 6 channels , 2 balanced mic input and 2 +2 quarter inch stereo inputs which can be used for electric piano or drum or any other electric instrument.
2-TRACK RCA IN and OUT stereo connections have no use for recording thru USB!.
First of all , the USB link between the computer and mixer is only directional. With the USB , it is very easy to connect these 6 channels as stereo 2 channels to your laptop-any S/W .If you are using windows you will need Asio4all s/w , With Asio4 connection is absolutely zero latency ( I worked with both win7 and Win10 without any problem ).MacBook is even easier.
And most tricky part of this mixer is " USB/2-TRACK" buttons.
When the "TO MAIN MIX" is UP signal transfer is from mixer to laptop direction.
When "TO MAIN MIX" button is down , sound signal is "only" comes from laptop to mixer, now you can listen from mixer (thru main or monitor) only what you play from your laptop.I think Behringer designed it in this way for the musicians , first record and monitor than listen what you have recorded to see the result.
Second button called "PHONES /CTRL RM" , if it is DOWN , you can monitor what you are sending from 6 channels to your laptop, this button doesn't effect on signal transfer from mixer to laptop.
If you use it for little gigs or rehearsal , it is 6+2 channels , those two RCA 2-Tracks can be used as extra input (without gain control) , you will here them thru MAIN MIX-OUT.
48 volts phantom power works perfectly, I have Studio Project B1 , it works w/o problem.
I am using it for 3 years , there is no over-heat problem even s/t I forget it as plugged over 24 hours.
Negative point, the AC adaptor is an hassle for me, but it is not a big issue . I wished Behringer would put it in the mixer.
There are also 2 extra functions I never used and I have no clue about them,.as "Stereo Aux Return" and " FX Send".
Summary , For the usage for limited purposes above mentioned , it is very nice product, very practical, small, easy to handle.
Of course there are limitations as control room outputs and phones level are controlled thru same knob but TBH even I never needed monitors , I use phones.
Note: Please correct my comments if I am wrong . Regards to all.
Cannot thank you enough for this effort / video. I recently bought the same mixer, but was lucky to find this video which helped me understand this particular mixer well and also led me to see your other video on having a mix minus setup which works perfectly for me. This video has certainly helped many people like me who are new to mixing. Thanks for this noble video. Great work.
Thanks for the kind words, really happy that this helped.
Five years on and this is still relevant! I've had the Xenyx Q1002USB for 6+ years and only just bumped into the issue of the USB not accepting two-way traffic! (How had I never noticed?!) Fortunately I had a UCA222 lying around that added into the chain and I've now rigged the mixer for mix-minus - I like the bonus of having two audio inputs for the computer. Thanks for saving me from tearing hair out for too long!
Adam, thanks for the feedback and I'm so glad to hear this was helpful! Enjoy the new, old setup! ;)
Just want to thank you again. Your video solved the problem I was having. Thank you so much for making it and sharing it on RUclips!
This was so helpful!
Another tip: If you are using the Xenyx Q802 USB for a podcast and can't hear people when they call in, the only thing that worked for us as we switched to Google Chrome. Since then, smooth sailing.
Thank you, Ray... I was considering this mixer, but my budget is a bit tight, and your video really helps me in my decisions... Really appreciated...
The easiest Way to monitor your input as well as getting audio from your PC is to plug in an RCA cable into both 2 track in and out, and pressing the USB / 2TR to phones / control room button down. That way, you can monitor everything you're putting into the mixer, as well as what's coming back from the computer via USB.
Dan Emmanuel Ventura you should make a video of that
Great idea! TY
It's just plug in? Not connect to something. Thank you
it sounds perfect, I will try,thanks
Holy shit, this is brilliant! I was skeptical, but it really works.
@Agus Literally just connect any stereo RCA couple from the output of the board directly back into the input and it works exactly as it should.
Re my comment below. Just found a cable among my cables that splits the signal and...it works :) So I could record my second part while monitoring...how great! The split signal is a mono signal but that doesn't matter when the point was to be able to hear what I was recording while listening to the playback. So, my Q802USB was not a waste of money and, once again, a huge thank you for taking the time to make this video.
Thanks Ray. Just watched your video and it has answered my problem about the exact point you shared. I don't understand much about mixers but I bought this entry level Q802USB to get myself started started recording to my laptop. But I was wondering what I was doing wrong when I couldn't hear the playback when I wanted to record a second part. Frustrated because I simply don't know enough to work out how to get to where you took us. I haven't tried your solution yet as I have only just watched your video but it has been a great relief for a pensioner on a budget to find a solution and to have people like yourself sharing your knowledge with us. Perhaps it would have helped a little more to show the actual split cables clearly as you mentioned splitting the cables but I haven't grasped this just yet. Thanks once again and best wishes.
Thanks, Ron, I’m glad this was helpful.
@@RayOrtega Yes very, thanks again and best wishes.
Great video Ray. I have been using the q802usb for voice recording and did not have exactly the same problem but when you reviewed some of the fixes you used that got me thinking and I was able to solve the problem. I had developed a low sub 80Hz hum that apparently is common and was able to correct that by turning off the output / monitoring which apparently was causing some type of internal feedback. Had I not watched your video would not have figured that out so thanks.
Interesting problem and fix, thanks for sharing, Terry! Glad you found a solution.
Great video man.
Thanks. Keep up the good work, I watch a lot of your vids. You're a gear review machine!;)
Ray Ortega Appreciate that. I need to do something to distract my mind and keep the darkness at bay. Haha. You're a great educator and I'm going to dig through a lot more of your videos to learn some new stuff. You keep up the great work as well.
The days are definitely dark. Keep making vids. Fight the good fight;) #resist ✊
@@RayOrtega do you have any recommendations for a usb mixer that allows for input & output monitoring more effortlessly?
@@CaptainAnonymous I think just about any other USB mixer should function better than this;) I haven't tested enough but this was the first time I came across this issue. Mackie has some decent mixers podhelp.me/profx12v2BH but it just depends on your budget and needs. It's also hard to tell ahead of time, I think the A&H mixer I reviewed works well ruclips.net/video/ZVTwQXND4rw/видео.html and the nice part is the mixer is multichannel
Thanks for explaining it so well! Could you recommend any other compact budget usb mixers that wouldn’t have these problems? Even if they are a bit more expensive.
Phew, you got me nervous because I just ordered one of these on amazon specifically for podcasting! I'll just mix minus it and bypass the usb altogether.
Okay, an update on that for anyone curious, it took some fiddling and such but the mix-minus works great. Just be sure to have the "phones/ctrl room" button and the "to main mix" buttons in the up position to bypass the usb.
Thanks for the video Ray Ortega. Very helpful.
When I input two stereo signals and rotate any of the knobs for one of them, I get lots of noise. Volume, equaliser... have you tried 2 inputs at the same time?
Nice one. I just bought the Q802USB (waiting for delivery).
I 'assumed' (always a dumb idea) that the USB worked both ways...
At least there's a workaround.
Cheers Ray!
OMG thank you for this video. I was struggling with this for so long.
So glad this helped!
if you do the mic monitoring via software, doesnt it add a noticeable delay / lag when you hear your voice it in the headphones? I am a newbie in mixer and I am just searching for a cheap mixer with compressor and USB interface. Monitoring and hearing the PC sound should also be on the mixer.
Also when splitting, will stereo audio coming from the PC (Skype, games, etc) be still stereo?
Do you know how I can hear myself and my headphones negative and the PC can capture both times or only the sound on the microphone? But I want to hear myself and the musicians pick up the microphone
Just what I was needing... Thanks!
Hi Ray, I have the same model, but I'm struggling to make it work right!. I'm Using the Sam Broadcaster and this mixer to connect my mic to do my internet radio show, but I want to be able to connect my cellphone in one of the channels to take live calls. Do you have any experience to do this?
I appreciate what you do, man. Thanks for this video!
Thank you, I just got my board today!
Thank you SO much for your very helpful video! Wishing you all the best!
Glad this helped, David.
Hi have a question Im a drummer and when I record my track in audacity it loses volume I have checked all the settings. When I play my recording on Audacity it always sounds really low even if its blasting on my headphones when Im playing it. If I export that file from Audacity to my desktop I lose even more volume. Can you pleade help?
This was a huge help thank you
How would I hook up/need additionally to make three usb rode podcaster
USB microphones work and which of the two mixers do you prefer for a
first time podcaster...? also if i get this mixer should i purchase 3 non usb mics vs 3 usb mics (decision between the rode procaster (non usb) and rode podcaster (usb) mics
its my favorite mixer. So simple and easy to use. No fuss.
I had a similar problem, but it wasn't a USB mixer: I have a Eurorack 802, and for the interface I re-purposed a UFO 202 that I bought to rip vinyl.
I was struggling with latency while monitoring through my DAW of choice, so I actually incorporated another mixer (Xenyx 502) as a "headphone-mixer".
The interface inputs come from the 802 tape-out, through the ufo202 and out to the 502 tape-in. Then the master out L/R of the 802 goes to one of the stereo channels of the 502.
This allows for great vocal monitoring while adding tracks without any latency issues.
I'm sure there's a mixer out there that does this, but I had all this Behringer gear, and came up with this solution -however in-elegant!
hi sir! how about the sound quality when we talks about recording via usb connection?is it the same as the analog out?
Thanks for the assistance, I've been struggling for days with this mixer. I can now hear audio through it but my PC still won't pick up the Audio Technica AT2035 I have plugged in with the XLR cable. Any tips here?
Thanks a lot for the tips. Now I know what's the source of my problem and why I'm having trouble with this mixer/audio-interface.
@Ray Ortega Man this helped!! I have this mixer and it has confused the hell out of me.... I think the mixer sounds great for what I am doing but the limitations weren't very obvious at first. I'm tossing the USB and going classic mix minus. It looks like you have a Mac but if you can help with setting up the PC sound options and Skype I greatly appreciate it if I run into issues... Thank you
Hey Ray, Thanks for this. Recently I bought a Behringer XENYX Q1002USB mixer which has exact the same issue. I thought Iwent grazy and maybe had to download a driver for my MacBook Pro to solve the issue but when I saw this video I knew that wouldn’t solve the problem. I hope I can return the Behringer XENYX Q1002USB mixer and buy a iRig Stream instead of it. That new product of IK Media (just came out after Namm 2020) does it all: sending stereo out from my mixer/recorder to the iRig Stream, led controle on it for the gain of the iRig Stream and monitor audio from the other person when using zoom.us Through the iRig Stream l can monitor what I send into it and monitor the audio from the one on the other side through the headphones out on the iRig Stream + you can talk back through a lavelier mic or monitor and talk back at the same time with such a gamer headset (phones and mic). An iPhone or iPad can be used as a webcam. Robin from Molten Music Technology has uploaded a great review and tested with succes which I want to use it for. All the best.
hey Ray! Thanks for the Video! I searched a long time for a the solution with the headphones. No-one take care on the Output from the Computer with the Q802USB. They only describe the Audio input and the voice listening. Thank you very much! Best regards from Germany!
You're welcome, glad this helped!
@ted smith if you are setting up the mix-minus like in this video, you need to have a line-in input that will take the 1/8" connection. You don't use the USB for mix-minus but you can record the whole thing on the same computer using the USB.
So for a mix-minus, the output of the computer would be set to the headphone output and you would connect that to a channel on the mixer. The mixer connects to the line-in input and only gets your microphone channel via the FX or Aux send. Then you can hear what is going out of the mixer as well as coming.
If I'm recording through an Ipad USB can I run a headphone cable through a 3.5 to 1/4 splitter to line 3 & 4 and hear audio from the ipad?
I have mic audio coming from left ear and computer audio in the right, is there a fix for this?
I watched this video recently and i have a question: Would i be able to use this mixer as a streaming soundcard via BUTT streaming sofware? Im a dj and have a controller
Awesome! Was trying to figure out why the LED meters were intermittently working. I have the Q1002 that has a similar monitoring issue; the volume is very low as to where I can barely hear myself. I'll try that y split into the phones and main out. Glad to know that my mixer isn't "broken". Thanks!
+johnydecali cool, let me know how it works for you!
thanx for this video! I was realy strugeling with this problem!
+DutchTurorials glad you found it and it helped! Thanks
Works on the xenyx 302usb too thanks a lot helped me so much thumbs up and sub earned!
Taking mine back to the shop,if you cant overdub and hear what you are doing its a waste of time. I thought it was me at first and had started to doubt that I had hooked it up to my DAW correctly. Thanks for confirming(along with a few others) that its not so good for musicians who are used to hearing whilst tracking. going back to my Alesis io2 express, same money but better.
Glad you got your answer even if it's not a good one. Good luck and thanks for watching!
Thank you Ray for these information ,you look very honest man,
Is suitable to connect 2 mic and 2 musical instumentr to record my music with cubase, ,thanks again.
which behringer would be the step up from this one which knows sending and receving in and out of the usb the same time?
Hi, Thank you a lot for the class. Maybe I´m gonna burn my mixer (hope not), but I got to record while monitoring in my QX1202USB by sending USB to phones and second track not pressed. Then I connected the main ou to the 2nd track in, using two p10 to RCA cables. This way I can both record the inputs and monitor the USB+inputs in stereo.
Hi,
can i connect my pc to this mixer then connent my xlr speakers to it and use equalizer ??
Would you know by any chance which one of the Behringer mixers doesn't have this issue?
Hi, I just connected this to my Mac, and in the button config in this video the inputs indeed do show up in the usb codec input and are metered in the sound app. One thing I tried was to connect my speakers to the control room jacks. In this config you do not hear the mixer inputs through the speakers, but you do get the pc audio. So I have achieved the Teams audio out through the mixer, and use the mics plugged into jacks 1 & 2 in my case, as the ins, so it’s operating as a 2 in 2 out sound card in this mode!
Hi great review! I have scarlett solo audio interface. I just wanna know how can I connect it in this mixer? I wanna buy this but wanna know first if it can connect to my interface. What process and adapter should I use? Thanks! :)
thanks exactly what i was looking for
Awesome video as usual, any particular reason you picked up an 80D as opposed to upgrading to a more future-proof 4K option? (I currently use a 70D for my tech videos)
I will bite, what camera do you use this year Anmar? I left my psychotic narcissist photographer behind, so unfortunately I had to walk away from some 5Dmkiiis to a humble Canon EOS-M, but I honestly enjoy the midrange quality and not sorting through shutter blasting. It also fits in my front pocket.
What would be a recommended mixer to avoid all of this problem?
Great video! Quick question for you. In regards to in house speakers/sound set-up.
I currently have my mini-mac hooked directly up to a TV/Monitor (built in speakers) and this xenyx q802 usb to my Mac. What sort of solid sound yet light on the budget type of speaker(s) would you recommend that plug directly into mixer? My Mac in and out are taken up completely.
So for this board, if I were to set up a mix-minus then I would be able to see the sound LED indicator while being able to have computer and my mic going through?
So, if I understand this correctly, I can use a dedicated output line from my PC "for communication" as named in Windows 10 and mix it in as channel and not have that problem?
I saw the first video and asked about the mix minus setup... Looking at this one in order to record phone conversations I don't rely on the USB I just go with the analog setup by connecting my cables into the 5/6 channel and leaving both buttons in the up position
Hi Ray, great video, i have a question regarding that mixer which I currently have, I’m using the mixer for karaoke and somehow i cant get the echo affect, do you know why?
As you have indicated regarding the mix-minus option, there is the inherent compromise resulting from the mono signal of the fx/aux send. For my purposes, this is absolutely unacceptable. I've ironed out some of the issues I mentioned in a previous post, but I could benefit from a mix-minus setup even if it was the mono split to both ears (or however I should state that).
I've come across some tutorials on RUclips in which the mix-minus setup is covered employing the use of a Behringer USB interface. You are likely familiar with them. They have RCA stereo in and out. Of course this would involve 1/4" male to RCA stereo split from fx/aux send to the interface, then RCA stereo out of USB interface back into mixer as an input. Of the several tutorials I've come across, there has been no mention of the issue where you would only receive in one ear.
I trust your knowledge and experience much more than mine, and honestly would rather hear your input than the guys that made those tutorials. Maybe it will contribute something to this discussion as well. I probably should note that I tried the mix-minus with Skype running on a secondary computer and had the issue with sound from each end in only one ear (not using the interface). I managed to get Skype working perfectly in some other manner, but I am still having issues with some VoIP applications, hence the interest in mix-minus.
So, basically my question; is it possible for this sort of interface to split the mono fx/aux out to where the mono source is heard through both cans? I've tried several other convoluted attempts to no avail. My knowledge is very limited here, so I can't help but be a bit skeptical. The $30 for the interface isn't so much that I mind giving it a try with no answer to my question, but thought I'd run this by you for some input, if you wouldn't mind. Thanks in advance for any response, informative or not.
Edit: I watched back through the video and took note of what you pointed out about the audio input/output selections within Skype. Using a device such as the Behringer USB interface that I've mentioned, this gives an additional option in Skype. I am referring to it as a USB interface, but it's technically a USB sound card. With two sound cards, you will get a second option in Skype. It is a cheap device, but this isn't all bad if someone has interest in testing this out, then upgrade to something higher quality if you feel that it would benefit you.
I have a question, asking for doing research for a friend. In a Live streaming set up. Could you plug the computer from the stereo out of a motherboard and plug it into the Line-in on the mixer, then on the Mixer output, do a stereo out to the Line-in of the Motherboard and hit the ctrl/phones and be able to hear your mic, and your PC in the headphones, see the volume in the LED lights and have the PC still hear everything your sending into the Line-in?
Hi, I have the QX1204USB and I need to send the MIC audio to my MacBook Pro, while still listen to the audio via headphones (no loop backs). However, the CODEC 2 for Input is grayed out in the AUDIO MIDI SETUP. Not sure how to do this. Thanks Darrell
By the way, how do you connect that camera that it picks your audio directly (in Stereo) from the mixer?
i want to use this mixer with a condenser mic to make screen recordings from the pc using something like camtasia. will i be able to listen to my voice while recording?
hey. i pluged my tablet into the 2track in to play music to the mixer. i can hear it when i have my headphones in the phones. i can hear the music but how can i send it to the pc with the 2track out? i pluged a 2track out into a mic slot but that resulted in some weird noise on my pc programm
can i just plug the left and right out from my mixer into the focusrite and then use the direct monitor on that?
Ray, awesome video. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong by even with my mic split to phones and main out I still cannot hear myself AND the other person. Perhaps I'm missing a setting?
Hi,
Ive been trying to connect two M5 Rode condenser microphones via the left mono line in 2/3 and 3/4 on the q502usb preamp for a stereo sound. Recording a piano.
Ive tried for hours to get it to work on a portable, with no success.
Ive looked into every drivers, recorders software, tested up down to main mix, etc.
I see on a picture of the q502usb preamp, to plug a guitar in the mono lines, i would need a DI100. Is it the same with little micro condensers? The vendor did tell me to just plug them there with the XLR to 1/4 L mono and that would work.
Ok thanks for any insights.
M-a
I'm considering pairing this with a Heil PR40 dynamic mic. Being you have a dynamic mic I heard that you have the gain about 90%. Do you feel this would supply enough gain for a Heil PR40 without having to use a Cloud Lifter or Fethead pre amp with it? Also do you notice any latency when using headphones to monitor your voice in real time as you record? Thanks!
hello thanks for the video. would you please do a video also about xenyx qx1202usb using reaper. my issue is i canot record tracks while during playback i cant overdub.
Good Day, i got this idea if we have a studio monitor speakers connected to the main out and it has option to connect the headphones will monitoring be easier?
some videos i saw in youtube also used rca jumpers and i also read your work arounds might think of looking for rca jumper link to have less cable mess.
most of all, this video helped me buy this mixer for my online class videos and game streaming..
kudos to you...
Hi Thanks for your video. I bought it. But I don't find echo in fx / there is no other knob any where else for this. How can I get an echo from this mixer, kindly suggest. Thanks...
You can also add a simple audio interface that has a monitor mix and use the usb from that to your device. You have to split the monitor mix to hear then back full to play full quality to them
Does your mixer heat up in like some minutes of use bit cuz mine does can any one tell me if this happens to your mixer or i might get mine replaced if it is not normal
My mixer board was working fine for a while, been using it to record vocals for music. But of late it has been making my vocals sound cracky and somewhat distorted. And I’ve noticed the 48v light is always on when I plug in the power supply these days . I need help
hi,
I want to use the mixer in a position with my DAW playing a backing track and my video camera shooting me playing the riff.How can I connect to my camera for a direct recording.I don"t likerecording with my camera mic because of surrounding sound?Thank you
Will this be a good option to use for OBS input and Monitoring sound from obs to laptop headphones?
where do i place my behringer fbq1000 in the sequence for vocals on mic pre or post mic hookup
Can you give some examples of which mixers CAN monitor USB audio and your mic?
Hello! I’m trying to use the Q1202 as an audio interface basically (setting it as audio input and output using usb), but whenever i try to send the audio out through the RCA I am barely getting nothing of audio out, already tried setting it as both (input and output in logic using usb) and plugging the cables through the main out and I can barely hear something, nothing is working, please help!
The mixer has two mono inputs and two stereo inputs (potential six output channels total) through USB can you send out all individual channels. So for example if I have a keyboard plugged into Channel 3's stereo inputs, a bass guitar direct box coming in on channel 2, a vocal mic on channel 1 and an acoustic guitar on channel 4. Counting the L/R split on the keyboard, that's 5 inputs. If in Pro Tools I want to send each of those inputs to their own dedicated track, can I do that with this mixer?
i need some help with my behringer xenyx 1204usb i can not get audio from my board to my pc i have even tried a line in on the pc from the board right now im just trying to use the mic i have for streaming
Please help!
I bought the “Behringer Q802USB Mixer” a while back and i have ignored a slight white noise/static shushing sound that i’d like to get rid of. Only power to the mixer and head set is plugged in.
Hi ray I was thinking about getting this mixer for my 2 pc r cording setup can this mixer be able to support two pc audio sources coming in and one going to my heads and one going to the mic port on the second pc PLZ HELP FAST thx
perfect solution for me...thanks for all
Glad this worked for you. Thanks for watching.
My question here, is I seem to be having issues with those buttons... I bought it second hand, and it seems loose / and my audio (from PC) cuts in and out, also the phones control room volume control adjustment does the same thing, should I replace it? I sometimes get static during my recordings, as I have a Dual XLR mic, but it sounds like electrical interference, nothing else
Hi Ray, thanks for your useful tips.
I have a question for you: I am sending in channel 1and 2 the stereo output of a Roland TD17KVX drum module and in channel 3 and 4 the audio from an iPod. I want to do two things with these inputs: 1) I want a specific mix o the Roland module AND the iPod music to hear through the headphones output [ a bit more Roland and a bit less music] for monitoring when I am playing - 2) I want another specific mix of the Roland and iPod inputs to go to the pc, in this case the DAW is Audacity [a bit more music and a bit less Roland] to record the drums I am playng + the audio track.
I can't find a configuration on the Xenyx 12022USB that allows me to set two different outputs at the same time.
Do you have a solution to my problem?
Thanks!
Hi, Kamarillo. Sounds like you want to get different levels for each output. Try setting up your mix for how you want it to sound in your headphones (more drum less music) and then try to get two separate channels into Audacity so that in post production you can set the levels how you want for that mix. You'll need to pan the channels hard left and hard right so that you can get a stereo channel in Audacity that you can later break out into mono parts (left for drum, right for music) and set you level. Or if stereo is an issue, just record channel 1/2 into Audacity and add the music track after.
@@RayOrtega thanks a lot for your indications! I will try that right away
Can you advise why I can only get left side stereo via USB to my computer - no matter which input line I use?
This may have been brought up before, but browsing RUclips comments is the pits.
Is there a reason not to achieve this by going out of the FX Send and into the 2 Track In? I got my mixer in yesterday and that was the simplest solution for me. I'm able to hear the audio from the PC and monitor myself perfectly through this method.
Hello,
I'm running 4 mics through a ZEDi 10 mixer, out through USB into Audition. Everything seems to be great but I can't figure out why my waveforms are so small in multitrack.
The recording is there, I hear it easily on playback, I can see teeny-tiny wavefroms, but nothing that I'd be able to effectively edit.
Any idea what I've gotten wrong here?
Hi sir in your opinion the behringer qx1002 USB can i use external audio source to my Samsung Galaxy a70? Android 9 version
This very was very informative. I have the same mixer and ive been googling for days and i cant seem to find my answer. I have 2 mics that i can plug into the spots for mic 1 and mic 2 but i cant seem to figure out how to record on both mics? With this mixer is it possible? If so, how? What DAW should i use? I'm trying to record and i have both mics connected but audio is only being picked up on mic 1 and i want it to be separate for mic 1 and mic 2 if that makes sense. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You. :)
the issue i am getting in the mix- setup is the FX send is emitting a tone. just plugging in the fx send and then to the mic in jack on the computer instant tone, I can still get the audio wanted but the tone is always there...anyone know what this is?
What would you recommend for a mixer with similar specs to the Q802 but without this dual monitoring issue?
Going to be mixing audio from a mic over XLR, a PC via 1/4'' jacks, and a PC via USB, would like to be able to hear the final output over my headphones with the ability to toggle off monitoring the mic if I need to (not a necessity but would be nice in case I start to hate my own voice again) and send it to a PC via USB at the same time. I'm a complete novice when it comes to audio and mixing so searching out as much help as I can get!
Thanks in advance :)
I was banging my head on the desk trying to see why this did not work. I am sending it back now. Your video shows a 12 channel Mackie. I do not need 12 or even 8. 4 would be ideal, but the 4 channel does not have USB. I might have to call the dealer and see what is available. Thank you.
They have even one channel ones, to get the one with USB its model name has to end with USB, if it doenst have USB by its end then it doesn't have USB, its basically two models of each version, regualr cheaper and USB more expensive
Hi Ray, great video. Could you clarify something for me? If I am recording music, can I monitor what I'm playing as well as hear what I'm playing to? For example, if I'm recording guitar over a band, I need to hear the band coming from my recording program so that I can play to it, and I need to hear myself (of course). Will this work? Thank you.
Andy, thanks! And no, not unless you set up the mixer the way I show in this video. Otherwise you can only hear the audio from either direction, not both.
I have a question about this mixer (well actually the 1202 modell, but its pretty much the same, just more channels). I am in a Band, and we have parts of music that we have to play through the Notebook, due to the lack of a keyboarder, so its a Wav-File. This has to be send to the PA, that also is connected to the singer. But we got our Drummer some In-Ear-Monitoring device, so he can hear a click for the metronome in addition to the Pre-Recorded Wav-File, the Singer, and the Guitar/Bass. But we got a big Problem: When we plug in The Guitar and Bass, we get the Guitar/Base sound also put out to our PA. Also we get the Click. Is it possible to set up this thing, so that we can have a dedicated Track for our Drummer, and another one without the click for use running at the same time?
Sir how to download drive for this mixer do you have link
Greetings
Hello .. I bought a behringer eurorack mx 802a on eBay without powersupply... Based on research the powersupply thst comes with it is 18v for 2 of the pins (xlr) at 800 mah.
However the powersupplies being sold on eBay for it is 17v for 2 pins at 600mah... Can those eBay power supplies work?
Thanks
I know this video is old, but what would be a good mixer for streaming? (Not looking to spend 500 on the GO XLR.)
