Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've used this mixer daily for personal applications for about 8 months. I've had absolutely no problems with it, and the sound quality is reasonably good. I get a little bit of signal noise through the USB ASIO driver but not enough to be a deal-breaker. If you have high demands, this mixer may disappoint, but if you need something simple and economical, I doubt you could do much better than this.

Behringer - XENYX Q802USB 8-Input 2-Bus Analog Mixer is a great product to have for you to make music... My recording of music instruments and voice is great sound go in an out of the mixer and the usb plug makes it great no it not a stand alone power it has a 12V plug so you can do live sound or plug your ipod or phone in to it with a 3/4 trs to a rca plug or do live events with it good buy from best buy I give it 5 Stars

Mixer works great. I love the USB connection and the sound is Awesome.

Granted this was a cheap device but I had purchased Behringer products in the past and considered them to be of high value/low cost . I wrongly assumed this device was more than it was. Some key specs were left out of the product literature and while the hardware still seemed decent for the price, the drivers were hardly usable. To enumerate the problems I have had: * The device is 16-bit, though this was not specified on Behringer's site or any of the online retailers pages. * The device is USB 1.1, though this is also not specified. * The default Windows USB Audio Codec drivers produced cracking at any acceptable latency when combined with ASIO4all v2 driver. * The official Behringer WDM driver when combined with ASIO4all v2 decently low latency, but occasionally the audio would become momentarily distorted (once every 20 minutes or so). * The official Behringer ASIO driver works perfectly at 5ms output latency, but Windows (non-ASIO) audio crackle and pop if the device is left at this setting after exiting my DAW. * When operated with ASIO4all, the device is only available to windows meaning you can run only one ASIO application and sound through windows is unavailable. Granted this is a limitation of the Windows driver model and how ASIO4all operates with it, but I figure this is worth mentioning since Behringer links to this driver from its drivers download page. * The official ASIO drivers do not allow many parameters to be tweaked. Cannot choose number of buffers and buffer sizes are only select-able in a predefined list. ASIO bit depth is hardcoded to 32 bit. * There is no manual available, only a quickstart guide although the quickstart guide refers you to the manual for more information. * When I voiced some of these complaints to Behringer I was told that they couldn't help me, but they would let the guys in China know. I did go through the normal troubleshooting process of choosing high performance power settings in windows, removing old drivers, turning off cpu power management, stopping unnecessary services etc., trying different usb ports and removing all but essential usb devices. All of the above issues were experienced in Windows 7 64-bit on a moderately spec'd machine: Quad core phenom II @ 3Ghz w/4GB DDR2 ram.

Great little mixer for the beginning podcaster, Can't wait until I get it all set the way I want it.
