Using the Behringer Xenyx X1204USB mixer is easy. First, connect your audio sources like microphones or instruments to the appropriate channels. For microphones, make sure to turn on the phantom power if needed. Use the 'one - knob' compressors to adjust the dynamic range of your sound. You can easily shape the tone with the 'British' 3 - band EQs. To add effects, select from the 16 presets in the Multi - FX processor. If you're recording, connect the mixer to your computer via the USB/audio interface and start the included recording software. When using it for live performances, you can use the aux sends for monitoring or adding external effects. Remember to check the clip LEDs on each channel. If they light up, it means the signal is too strong and you should lower the input level. For maintenance, keep the mixer in a clean and dry place. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth regularly. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. When not in use, turn it off and unplug it from the power source. The power supply can work with voltages from 100 - 240V~, so it's suitable for different regions.
