Top Rated Gear: Behringer Xenyx Q1202USB Premium 12-Input 2-Bus Mixer with Xenyx Mic Preamps and Compressors, British EQs and USB/Audio Interface Circuitry: Digital

The Behringer Xenyx Q1202USB Premium 12-Input 2-Bus Mixer allows you to effortlessly achieve premium- quality sound, thanks to its 4 onboard studio-grade Xenyx Mic Preamps and ultra-musical "British" channel EQs. And the easy-to-use "one-knob" compressors provide total dynamic control for the ultimate in punch and clarity, while respecting all the power and emotion you pack into every note. Add to this, the sweet forgiveness of the British-style EQs and +48 V Phantom Powers for use with studio- grade condenser microphones - and the Q1202USB becomes an incredibly versatile mixer for your live performances. But the Xenyx Q1202USB isn't just designed to handle your live gigs; it also provides the state-of-the-art tools you need to make stunning, professional-quality recordings. Along with its built-in USB/audio interface, the Q1202USB mixer comes with all the recording and editing software needed to turn your computer system into your own personal high-performance home recording studio.  Sonically Superior Mic Preamps  The Xenyx Q1202USB gets its name from the legendary, high headroom Xenyx mic preamps, which have been praised by audio engineers all over the world. These state-of-the-art mic pres represent a major step in the evolution of audio technology - and they can easily hold their own, even when compared to the most expensive stand-alone mic preamps. Xenyx preamps offer a staggering 130 dB of dynamic range, with a bandwidth that extends from below 10 Hz to well above 200 kHz. Armed with these outstanding mic preamps, the Xenyx Q1202USB provides such transparent, crystal- clear performance you just might think someone upgraded your mics while you weren't looking.   One-Knob Compression  Ask professional sound engineers what their favorite piece of external processing gear is and the majority response will be virtually unanimous - dynamic compression. Compression essentially limits the dynamic range of a signal, lowering the level of loud sounds and turning up softer sounds, to achieve sonic balance. But applying compression is a delicate art that many novice and even intermediate, sound techs find challenging. The "one-knob" compression is available on all mono channels and is easy to operate, even for entry-level users. With this one knob, you can easily dial in the perfect amount of compression for instruments and vocals, creating powerful mixes with punch and clarity. This is indeed a rare feature for products in this class - but standard on the Xenyx Q1202USB mixer.   Sublimely Musical British EQ  The British consoles of the 1960s and '70s changed the sound of rock and roll - without them the British Invasion might not have happened. Those legendary mixing desks soon became the envy of engineers and producers all over the world. The channel EQ on the Xenyx Q1202USB is based on that very same circuitry, allowing you to imbue signals with incredible warmth and detailed musical character. Even when applied generously, these equalizers exhibit sweet forgiveness and superb audio quality.   Recording Bliss  There was a time when the recording process called for lots and lots of expensive gear, which meant the average musician had to buy time at a recording studio - and that time was pricey indeed. But modern technology has put personal recording well within the reach of virtually anyone with access to a computer. How do you get all that music flying around your brain into your computer? That's where the Xenyx Q1202USB comes in. Thanks to the built-in, bi-directional stereo USB audio interface, you can connect any of these mixers directly to your PC or Mac computer via a single USB cable. Now any signal source you connect to the mixer can be recorded directly to your hard drive.  Free Software Would Be Nice  Because you'll want to take full advantage of the Xenyx Q1202USB's recording and podcasting potential, they have included all the software you'll need for audio recording, editing and even podcasting .You'll be ready to go live on your PC or Mac right out of the box! They have also provided a free download of more than 150 virtual instruments and FX plug-ins - turning your computer into a powerful home-based or mobile recording studio from input to output.
