BEHRINGER XENYX 502S Analog Mixer

Go live with real knobs under your fingers.

Going live from a desk means balancing your voice against music and computer audio, often while you talk. You want a knob for each of them. The 502S answers with five analogue inputs and a USB streaming interface built in.

Your computer on one cable

Connect the USB Type-B port to your computer for audio in and out. It is UAC2 class compliant, stereo in and out at 48 kHz, 16-bit.

Bring the computer back into the mix

Press STREAM TO MIX and the stream input joins the main mix. That input is a mix of the RCA inputs and the USB audio. Press STREAM TO MONITOR/PHONES to hear it in your headphones.

Set your level once, then talk

The XLR mic input offers +10 to +60 dB of gain. A CLIP LED lights when the input is driven too high. The 2-band EQ cuts or boosts 80 Hz and 12 kHz by up to 15 dB. Phantom power is on the 802S only. The whole mixer weighs 1.2 kg.

Features

• 2-band EQ: up to 15 dB boost or cut at 80 Hz and 12 kHz
• CLIP LED: lights when the mono channel input is driven too high, so you can reduce GAIN
