BEHRINGER SX Series Mixers - Next Generation Analog Studio/Live Consoles Complete solutions for recording & small to mid-size live mixing.
BEHRINGER updates its EURODESK line of mixers with the new SX series of recording and live sound consoles. First to arrive are the SX2442FX twenty-four channel and SX3242FX thirty-two channel mixers. The SX series is designed to meet the needs of studio and live mixing applications, with a comprehensive set of features that combine sonic excellence and a full complement of mixing & sound modification tools.
Each four-bus mixer features ultra-low noise, high-headroom XENYX microphone preamps. Mono input channels feature three-band, semi-parametric mid-range EQ with Neo-classic British response. Stereo input channels provide precise four-band equalization. Each input has four aux sends; with two sends switchable between pre/post fader, for a flexible mix of monitor and effects applications.
External signal processing racks can be largely eliminated, thanks to the SX Series two integrated effects processors and stereo 9-band graphic EQ. One-hundred 24-bit / 96kHz studio-quality effects presets can be called-up and assigned to one or both internal effects buses. Main or Monitor output EQ is set and fine-tuned with the intuitive FBQ Feedback Detection display.
When external processing is required, the SX Series provides extensive insert patch-points for input channels and main outputs. The Master section offers a wealth of features such as multiple aux and stereo returns, switchable SIP / PFL monitoring, Talkback, metering and more.
An internal auto-ranging power supply (100 240V), gold-plated XLR output connectors and rugged steel construction ensure that the SX Series consoles will travel anywhere to tackle any recording or mixing task, with pristine audio quality and a minimum of external gear.

so i ordered some little KRK's to sit by the mixer and not get too much in the way, so the first vid'll be done next week
anyhoo... it's not bad assuming it will be reliable - if it does turn out to be reliable it's gonna be a real winner actualy, the mic amps are good for the price (336 quid and it'll go down, it's just been released), inserts on all mic channels and main l/r out - the eq's not bad either, it's not at all a surgical eq, but it's tuned pretty smooth and musical, 80hz bass, 12k top, 100-8k seeo mid - all +/- 15dB
The fx are actualy very decent if uneditable, shame really cos the verbs are actualy pretty lush and it's be nice to be able to tweak em a bit, downside is 10 preset delay times,, no way to set delay tempo - also it has exciter, autofilter (again no way to select freq'), some type of bass-boost/maximiser type stuff, it has a test tone preset (1k).. all the usual time based effects and some combo's rounds off the selection
The fx sends 1/2 are hardwired to the 2 x 24 bit dig' onboard fx units, but joy of joys, you can send the signal arriving at either fx unit OUT via a dedicated master fx send... or you can use the fx sends both ways at the same time!
um... yeah it's ok, it's also got a mono master out channel with a low-pass filter to deliver to a sub or whatever (the lopass is switchable), 2 aux's as well. not bad for just over 300 quid.
