These features contribute to the mixer’s premium-quality sound performance. Additionally, this mixer includes four studio-level compressors with one-knob control for easy use, as well as 3-band EQs that provide a warm and musical sound. The XENYX QX1222USB also features KLARK TEKNIK processors that offer 100 world-class presets, such as reverb, chorus, delay, and more. With a built-in stereo USB interface, you have the convenience of directly connecting the mixer to your computer for recording and mixing music, thanks to the complementary software included.
Sonically superior preamps are a notable feature of the Behringer XENYX QX1222USB. The XENYX preamps are widely recognized for their exceptional sonic performance. With an impressive dynamic range of 130dB and a frequency bandwidth of 10Hz to 20kHz, these preamps are ideal for home recording and live use. They deliver high quality and outstanding clarity across a wide range of sources, including guitars, percussion, vocals, and bass.
The QX1222USB incorporates a sublimely musical British EQ. Behringer has meticulously studied and incorporated the same style circuitry found in British mixing consoles, providing incredible warmth and detailed musical character. Even when applied generously, these equalizers display sweet forgiveness and superb audio quality.
Another impressive feature of the QX1222USB is its built-in digital multi-FX processor from KLARK TEKNIK. This processor offers a wide range of premium-grade digital effect presets, with 16 included options such as delay, chorus, flanger, pitch shifting, and reverb. The processor also includes time-based functions that can be manually controlled by pressing the tap button in time with the music.
The mixer features an intuitive one-knob compression function on all mono channels. This function allows you to easily dial in the perfect amount of compression for instruments and vocals, resulting in powerful mixes with punch and clarity. This feature is rare for mixers within this price range.
The QX1222USB is designed with a wireless-ready feature, allowing easy connection to Behringer’s digital wireless microphones (sold separately). The USB connector on the top of the mixer accommodates the 2.4GHz wireless receiver dongle included with Behringer’s wireless microphone sets.
