(For applications requiring more microphone inputs or dedicated graphic EQ, the larger QX1222USB or QX1832USB models are available within the same series).

Key Features

Premium XENYX Mic Preamps: Four studio-grade preamps offer a staggering 130 dB of dynamic range, delivering crystal-clear, high-headroom audio with switchable +48V phantom power for condenser microphones.
Studio-Grade One-Knob Compressors: Effortlessly dial in the perfect amount of dynamic control on all four mono channels. The single-knob design tames aggressive peaks and punches up lead vocals, bass, and acoustic guitars without requiring an engineering degree.
KLARK TEKNIK FX Engine: Elevate your mix with a legendary 24-bit digital processor featuring an LCD display, dual-parameters, tap function, and 100 world-class presets including lush reverbs, choruses, flangers, delays, and pitch shifters.
Alt 3-4 Bus Routing: A signature feature of the 1204 series, all channels feature a mute button that instantly routes the signal to an alternate stereo bus (Alt 3-4), perfect for creating sub-mixes, isolated recording tracks, or alternate monitor feeds.
Wireless-Ready Integration: A dedicated USB port on the top panel provides instant, seamless connectivity with Behringer’s ULM series digital wireless microphone systems, keeping your stage or studio free of cable clutter.
Direct USB Recording: A built-in class-compliant stereo USB audio interface allows you to connect directly to your Mac or PC, turning your mixer into a high-performance recording hub for streaming and podcasting.
