Behringer Xenyx Q1002USB Mixer with USB

We’ve observed a trend toward mixers having inbuilt audio interfaces, and this one from Behringer is a good example. The Behringer Xenyx Q1002USB Mixer is a 10-input, 2-bus analog mixer including Xenyx mic preamps and compressors, a 3-band EQ in the British manner, and a USB audio interface. There is a per-channel FX send as well as an FX to control room capability that allows you to monitor effects via headphones and the control room outs. The Behringer Xenyx Q1002USB provides mains, as well as a separate control room, headphones, and 2-track outs, while the USB connector allows you to connect directly to your computer for recording.
