    UTILIZATION

    This console is very simple, who knows well the sr basic functionality of a console! all fawns, although instructions provided which allows to navigate even for a novice. Trs good ergonomics in short, and the user manual includes basic situations.

    SOUNDS

    Some like mdir on Behringer, who, indeed, often products Submitted not really pros. As for the console, it is clean, trs little noisy, with eq effective. May be it could be a little warm, but hey, it's not a Neve, and it's good dj trs. For decision-voice, I use the blow often prampli Bellari externally.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use the console for 2 years, but it is second-hand and must have ten years. Say anything, it runs without any problem, trs looks solid.
    I bought it about 7000 with FF-meter band saw, but a good plan c'tait a priori (c souvnet without the price band). At this price the RVer I could not better. I bought a small mackie hsit, 12 or 16 channels, a value sre. N o I regret: the MX 8000 allows me much more things, including the use of sound when playing 10! My main use is plutt Obviously the home studio, and I'm really happy trs.
    Go ahead without hsiter.

    The MX8000 ... it has everything a great. And more ...

    I will not here his résumé CHARACTERISTICS - they are available on the Behringer site - but in outline:

    - It possde 2 x 24 channels available sparment, but with some limitations, 6 and 8 Aux Send Subgroup.

    - It is a team of connection 'Input Expander Bus Ports'. This allows to add a sub-mixer and so bnficier on this, officers of the MX8000.

    - It benefitted from the technology of pramplis Mackie (implying thus the sound of these qulait pramps).

    - A large rack of 2 1 / 2 U provides power to the console.

    So this is a great bte, although its caratristiques are more or less traditional about this kind of console.

    - A large rack of 2 1 / 2 U provides power to the console.

    So this is a great bte, although its caratristiques are more or less traditional about this kind of console.

    UTILIZATION

    The MX8000 Submitted the same ergonomics as the work of his size consoles: long rows of well organiss channels on which the srigraphie is explicit. The buttons and knobs are small but accessible and prcis.

    The connector is a bit Drout: we find the opposite as female jacks on the rear suprieure. In addition, the flexibility of the console connection induces a rich, sometimes Drout. Unlike channels, the indications are not always empty ... Have fun and live semi-pnombre!

    The use of 24 channels 'B' is a bit heavy and inconvenient. With the help of a swtich or is assigned channel buttons 'A' (EQ, Aux Send, ...) their counterpart 'B', or it has 4 buttons (Lo and Hi EQ, Pan and gain) or less. Say, if they are intended to receive a multi-instance, they allow a lack of dpanner.

    Manir gnrale of the MX8000 is relatively easy to use for anyone matrise some mixing consoles (I exclude here so DJ tables). Its connectivity and wide, however possibilitsncessitent grip rational and informed.

    SOUNDS

    Especially thanks the quality of its pramplis, the concerns of German dtail and rigor, the MX8000 is really close counterparts in the most prestigious name. It provides the rle of mixer properly, but no more. The sound that emerges is clear but not transparent.

    Moreover, its technical specifications (EQ + / - 15 dB, 10 dB -4, ...) it confrent signal processing and efficient prcis.

    But be careful: high gain, it Submitted a little breath.

    OVERALL OPINION

    As suspected, Behringer has once again offered a quality product price mini. And they have not done in the dtail, as they have dubbed the technology of the era Mackie - which also earned them a ban on sales to US

    I purchased this console used in 2003. Although it was (and is still) treated with the utmost care, there is all the same a few weaknesses (cracks, false contacts) due to its age and choice of components (ben yes, everything pays Ralite), but nothing debilitating.

    Besides, this is a really versatile console, full of possibility that even the (very) large not (see Bus Expander Ports imputed). It is rugged, reliable and good quality sound. The MX8000 is, moreover, a small open market price of OCCAZ (500-600 euros). Not to be missed!

    I also want to give you some recommendations if you want to buy:
    - It is available for almost 10 years. Connatre for his age (it's crazy and sellers quickly forget the age of their hardware !!!), Verify the serial number. During the 90's, the first digit is the year of construction. There is also sometimes the 'Date Code' (MM YY format), much more explicit.
    - From 1998, Behringer has an update on the console, which then took an 'A' in its name (MX8000A). They apparently replaced the MODEL of pramplis (among others?).
    - Verify all buttons and potentiomtres with the console. Yes, a time consuming and has con, but it ncessaire! The buttons sometimes show signs of weakness (crunch, malfunction, ...) The rotary must potentiomtres Submitted Resistors some 'oily' enjoyable. For cons, the faders are Resistors glide.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Used for 6 years, still no problem of reliability.

    the era I made the right choice, I think.

    now is the best in qualitprix occasion.

    if I bought new, for the j'hsiterais numrique, but though they say ... the pramp of mx are better than those of yam digital and ergonomics is a marvel.

    then ... aa more face in a stud! (Especially as it is cascadable! ...).

    - 48 V phantom Alim assignable in groups of eight (less convenient).
    - Micro integrated and assignable orders.
    - 10 bar graphs for subgroups + Main. Headband complete bargraphs option.

    UTILIZATION

    Clear routing, connectivity much more abundant on some models, however, much more expensive, it's a console that is beginning to impose. Its separate power supply and weight inspire confidence ...
    100 mm faders glide well and are accurate. Manual in English, but not off-color, with handy synopsis.

    SOUNDS

    The preamps are pumped back to those of a certain very famous Mackie at the time, good dynamics and clarity are great to visit. You really have to push very hard to recover breath. The équalo unfortunately without setting Q is a shame because it would have been perfect ...

    Otherwise, this console sounds "neutral", it makes no specific staining, and personal, I like.

    Certainly there are better, but we'll have to break the piggy bank ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've been a ... since then? Long, for sure. Pumped back to the Mackie, the MX-8000 found in undeniable qualities and his abundant connections can do just about anything you want. Following a trial against so-cons lost Mackie, Behringer MX-8000A emerged a lot worse then the 9000 ...

    Assets:
    - Connectors for this staggering price range.
    - Matos strong.
    - Good preamps and équalos.
    - Section mixing comprehensive and well laid out, with many possible assignments.
    - Aesthetically pleasing, it is important when you bump it 12 hours a day ...

    Cons:
    - The Q on équalos missing.
    - No phase inverters.
    - The assignment of the phantom in groups of 8.
    - The connection is fabulous, but once the banner bargraphs laid, access to the connector and switch Mic / Line becomes impractical.

    Well, at risk of being down in flames by all critics of the brand (and there are many), I am sorry to say that Behringer has not come out as dung, and this console is an illustration . I bought it at the time being not sure of the keep. Well it is clear that it is still there, the matron, and I never had any technical problem. Certainly qu'électronicien time, I've made some changes nice, but it's a good carcass. Currently, it is coupled to a Tascam TMD 1000 Fly-in a big box, and all groups are managed by TDG Digital 1000. Well it makes quite a gas plant, worthy of some bikes a lot, but really much more expensive.

    I regularly handles large consoles with names that make you dream. I also have a D & R. We certainly can not compare, but still: ergonomics, simplicity and sound quality that are fun for everyday use, and endurance is at the appointment. What more to this price?

    Especially as the market opportunity, we can reach in good condition at ridiculous prices. But be careful, eh, take an MX-8000, not the MX-8000A is not at all the same ...

    The value for money: breathtaking. I would do if this choice? Mmmmmmh, why not?

    It is true that it throws in a studio, the number of channels is an additional comfort: no need to disconnect / reconnect constantly machinery or tools, each has his way attritrée!
    At the time of purchase (12,000 francs), it was almost exact copy of Mackie 24/8/2 for the third of the price!
    A good machine, very interesting opportunity

    Well... I'll be the first to write in this section.
    I went this weekend to Germany to get it.
    350 euros (yes... on eBay)

    You can read the features on www.Behringer.de

    Apart from the fact that it doesn't have any effects (which doesn't bother me much, since I play drums).
    It has all the features of a big console (which rarely have effects!)... 9/10

    USE

    Very easy to use (if you have the manual).
    It's a real treat to use!
    I have nothing much to say in this regard, except that the faders on mine feel way too smooth, I would've preferred them to offer a little more resistance.

    6/10 (not considering the price)
    10/10 (considering the price!)

    So 8/10

    OVERALL OPINION

    Neutral sound, routing possibilities that even some "big" consoles don't have, the faders lack "stiffness" on mine (they feel cheap).
    Otherwise, there's not much to add.
    Oh, yes,... Would I buy it again? Yes, I would!!! Unbeatable value for money!!!
    For an amateur home studio... It's a real delight.

    A real pro would want and can certainly pay more!!!

    Nothing to add to what has been said already. Truly impressive connection options for the price. The direct outs are particularly useful. I use it in my home studio to record and mix together with an Akai DtD. I use my PC for midi.

    USE

    Very, very comprehensive and simple. 8 buses and 6 auxs. And inserts and direct outs on every channel. The routing is very flexible. Personally, I have a lot of fun routing the direct outs to other tracks.

    SOUND

    This is where you start understanding the price. Namely:
    - It's not very transparent. Although that's a matter of taste.
    - The preamps are noisy when you crank up the level.

    - The preamps are noisy when you crank up the level.
    - The pots aren't precise. It can be exhausting to adjust a send/effect, for example.
    - Equalizer? Really? There's an EQ: Without a doubt its weakest point. Fortunately, thanks to the flexible routing, you can get round the problem processing the signal with a real EQ. Personally, I use the mixer's EQ for backup vocals and use specific rack gear for the main vocals.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought it secondhand and have been using it for 7/8 years. One channel doesn't work anymore and 2 or 3 faders have issues.
    I love the number of channels and the ultra-comprehensive configuration possibilities. The least: The EQ.
    I tested a Spirit. But I needed more channels.
    Exceptional value for money (in my particular case). I would certainly buy it again.
    Although I will soon switch to a PC-based setup (Motu 24 I/O + Cubase 4), I'll keep my console around to write songs, as a "mixer" for my rack gear and when my friends come over to jam. I will use it very little to record or mix.
    To sum it up: I'm very satisfied with the services this nice console has provided me.

    How long have you been using the product?
    Two years

    Did you try any other models before buying this one?
    Yes, several Yamahas, Behringers and Mackies

    Which feature do you like the most / the least?
    The bar-graph is really handy, as well as the dual monitoring section
    The routing possibilities are huge thanks to the 8 sub-groups, 6 auxs and 24 inline inputs

    Based on your experience, would you buy this product again?
    Absolutely! It's one of the most comprehensive analog mixers I've seen. There are certainly better ones, but they cost 10 times as much!
