    This was helpful , as intended. My Behringer UB2222 is quite a bit larger , but as I am learning , mixing boards appear more complex because they are larger. But they are simply multiples of the smaller ones. Thank you

    This board has so much functionality. I love the board. Learning to use it is hard. I've had this board for two years and decided I wanted to tackle learning how to send audio to the mixer and thought I could use the track/USB. Now I know that's wrong. Thank you!

    I looked all over for a couple days after buying the x1222USB and could not figure out how to mix the CD music input. I was using the analogue jacks with no luck like you did. The manual is as clear as mud on this topic and other videos don't cover it. Your video explained it simply which jack to use. Why doesn't the company "Draw you a Map" of something so many want to do? Thanks so much for taking the time to cover this.

    If we can control the input audio from its source (like connecting a PC to 2 track - or even a phone like you did), is it just the lack of control on the board itself that makes it so that you wouldn't use it in your mix? Based on your explanation it sounds like we could send the 2 track into the main mix (using the specified button) alongside everything else and have it all work and output together no?

      @@TonyHob that doesn't make sense to me, doesn't everything in the main mix get recorded? How would the recorder know what sounds came from the 2-track versus what sounds came from the other inputs? Isn't that what mixing means, that the signals are mixed together?

    The way I have it setup is I’ve got my Steinburg interface outputs going into the rca 2 track input then my control room going back into the inputs of my steinburg input for recording and left right guitar and vocal going into the mixer inputs 1 to 4 from my voicelive 3 extreme my main mix outputs go to my 2 jbl eon one pro speakers the monitor out puts on them go to my control room speakers it’s just one big loop that connects everything into the laptop for live gigging with backing tracks and recording and my left right inputs on the mixer 7/8 is where my td25kv drum kit connects into it and 5/6 has my akai mpk261 keyboard attached in the only USB Connection I use on the system is from my steinburg interface as it is noiseless compared to the mixer as the behringer has a humming hiss and by doing it this way everything talks to each other through midi as it has midi in and out on the back of the steinburg interface.

    • @TonyHob
      @TonyHob  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That’s a great way to do it. I also found the 2 track outputs to be noisy. On my smaller 802 I do the same by connecting the control room out to the interface input. On this one I just use the USB but my setup is much simpler than yours since I really just use it for karaoke and DJ’ing. Awesome setup!

      your DJ mixer's stereo output can go into any one of those channels on this Xenyx mixer. or did you already get it setup? and also, was that your actual question? or did you mean how could you add your DJ mixer via USB? because this mixer in the video has 1 USB input. if it were setup that way, it would have to output audio via stereo out for recording.

    HI, PLEASE HELP!!
    I have this arrangement for my new looper setup: A boss Rc-300 pedal station and Behringer X1204USB. I have all the instruments in the separate channels, and then everything on the desk can be recorded onto my Boss RC-300 looper pedal station. Next issue that I'm stuck on is how to feedback my looper station back into the desk, without creating a feedback loop (where every time I'm recording a loop on the looper pedal station, it records the looper playback as well as the new phrase I'm playing, continuously layering up the looper playback on top of itself, until it has feedback)...
    I've figured out that, using the 2-track/USB input with an RCA cable coming from the output of the looper pedal station, I can hear the looper playback and record on top of it without creating looper feedback.. but when I record from my desk to Protools on my laptop, as you said, I can only hear what I'm playing, not the looper playback.
    I have a feeling, instead of running from the output of the looper pedal station to the 2 track/USB input, I have to run it into the Stereo aux returns L and R (to the left of the 2 track input)... the thing is, I think this will create the looper feedback issue again... Is there anyway at all to have the 2 track picked up on my recording software at all!? Or is there any arrangement I can have with this board where the looper playback can be recorded to my laptop, as well as heard, without creating the looper feedback.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for this video. What a strange choice on Behringer's part to assume you wouldn't ever want to input something to Main via USB or RCA and simultaneously send it and everything else back out via USB or to your recorder via RCA. As soon as I press "2-TR/USB to Main", those go to the main mix out of XLR, but my USB main mix is silent which seems... useless.
    Do you know if the Yamaha MG-XU series mixers suffer from this limitation? They have RCA inputs on Line 9/10 and USB on 11/12, each with their own discrete volume controls, so it seems like they view the role of RCA and USB input differently.

    can you listen previously other music in another channel befor mixing?

    • @TonyHob

      yes, but the music would need to be connected to the input on the 2-track RCA, then you can listen to it on the headphones with the 2-track selected.

      It does a similar thing by isolating that channel so you can listen to it and adjust the volume separately by looking at the gain lights of just that channel, also known as clip. So yes
