Behringer XR12 Description

The Behringer XR12 offers a powerful and flexible mixing solution in a compact stage box format. With 12 inputs including 4 Midas-designed mic preamps and 8 line inputs, it provides clean, high-quality audio capture suitable for bands, houses of worship, and small venues.

Its built-in tri-mode WiFi router allows direct wireless control from tablets, smartphones, or computers, eliminating the need for external networking gear. The intuitive control apps provide full access to mixing, routing, effects, and EQ settings from anywhere in the venue.

Advanced DSP powered by a 40-bit floating-point engine ensures high headroom and near-zero latency performance. The mixer includes four stereo effects engines modeled after classic studio processors, along with full dynamics processing and EQ on all channels and buses. A 100-band real-time analyzer (RTA) provides detailed visual feedback for precise tuning.

Additional features like Dugan-style auto-mixing automatically manage multiple microphones, making it ideal for panel discussions, conferences, and spoken word applications. With USB stereo recording and playback, MIDI control, and flexible mounting options, the XR12 is a versatile solution for modern audio environments.
