Behringer XENYX X1622USB — Compact Analog Mixer with USB Recording

The Behringer XENYX X1622USB is a 16-input, 2-bus analog mixer built for musicians, podcasters, and small-venue engineers who want studio-grade tone shaping and direct computer recording in a single desktop unit. With the compact XENYX X1622USB, you can achieve premium-quality sound using 4 onboard studio-grade XENYX mic preamps, super-easy "one-knob" compressors, and musical "British" channel EQs with a semi-parametric mid band for maximum flexibility in sound sculpting.

What Makes the XENYX X1622USB Stand Out

What sets this model apart is the combination of a KLARK TEKNIK-designed 24-bit multi-FX processor and a true bidirectional USB audio interface. Included in this mixer are 16 editable, professional-grade FX presets such as reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, pitch shifter, and multi-effects. Direct recording is possible through the integrated stereo USB interface, connecting any signal source to PC or Mac with a single USB cable.

Mic Preamps and Channel Processing — Capture Every Detail

Mono channels 1–4 are equipped with XENYX mic preamps, providing wide dynamic range and extended bandwidth—capabilities found in much pricier stand-alone preamps. Compressors with a single knob on those channels allow quick control over peaks and quieter passages, eliminating the hassle of external dynamics units.

• Mic Preamps: 4 XENYX studio-grade preamps on mono channels 1–4 with 130 dB dynamic range and bandwidth from below 10 Hz to above 200 kHz
• Benefit from instant vocal and instrument level control via one-knob studio-grade compressors on all mono channels.
• Phantom Power: +48 V global phantom power for condenser microphones on all XLR inputs

EQ and Routing — British-Style Sound Shaping

Legendary British console circuitry from the 1960s and '70s inspired the channel EQ design, offering warmth and musicality even at high gain. Mono input inserts make it easy to patch in outboard processors, and each channel features two aux sends to expand monitoring and effects routing.

• Mono Channel EQ: 3-band British EQ with semi-parametric mid band for surgical tone shaping on vocals and instruments
• For stereo channels, a 4-band fixed EQ lets you sculpt the sound of keyboards, playback, or submixes with precision.
• Aux Sends: 2 aux sends per channel — one pre/post fader switchable for monitor or FX use, one post fader for internal FX or external send

Onboard Effects and USB Recording — Ready for Stage or Studio

Using the integrated multi-FX processor and stereo USB interface, the X1622USB serves as both a live-performance and recording hub. Features like Solo, PFL, Clip LEDs, Mute, and Main Mix/Subgroup routing allow engineers to manage every channel in real time.

• Internal Effects: Yes — 24-bit dual-engine Multi-FX processor with 16 editable presets including reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, pitch shifter, and multi-effects
• Recording and playback are seamless thanks to the bidirectional stereo USB audio interface—no driver installation needed for PC or Mac
• Routing: 2-bus design with Sub 1/Sub 2 subgroups, Main Mix outputs, Control Room outputs, and matrix input for custom monitor mixes

Who Is the XENYX X1622USB For?

This model meets the needs of solo musicians, small bands, podcasters, and home-studio producers who want a flexible mixer for live gigs and computer-based recording—without purchasing separate gear. Content creators enjoy the matrix input on the control room, which lets the operator hear a mix different from the broadcast or recording—a real asset for streaming and podcasting. Schools, churches, and rehearsal rooms benefit from 16 total inputs, two aux sends, and a rugged chassis that fits easily on any desk or in a carry bag.

Behringer and KLARK TEKNIK Heritage

Behringer built this mixer using industry-rooted audio technology. KLARK TEKNIK, one of Britain's most respected audio companies with a 40-year legacy and a TEC Lifetime Achievement Award, designed the 24-bit studio-grade effects engine included here. This gives users access to the same FX character that made the legendary DN780 reverb processor a staple among top engineers worldwide.
