Currently looking for a Yamaha AG03 as a replacement. The only way for me to temporarily fix it is to Unplug and re-plug the device from the USB port. I've seen so many YouTubers using expensive audio interfaces just to do vlogs, and having bought this Q502, I keep thinking.why did they waste their money - this will do exactly the same job, and at a fraction of the price.ĮDIT: After about a year of use, the device stops transmitting In an Output signals at random moments. Secondly, the power switch.there isn't one! Dreadful design, otherwise I would have given it at least 4 starts for 'features.'Īll said, if you want a little mixer, which is sturdy, reliable and will give you some flexibility before you go into the PC or laptop, you won't find a better deal. The 'MAIN MIX' pad I understand, but there is a designated phones pot, so I was scratching my head for a few minutes thinking 'why?' Again, can be a little confusing, but trial and error.

If you have your mic on (there's phantom power too.nice touch!) coming through your cans, you will have the signal cut by pressing in the 'TO PHONES' pad. Firstly, there are a couple of pads that allow you to send both the RCA inputs and the USB input to both the phones and main mix, which I found slightly confusing at first. However, I do have a couple of small issues. Installation doesn't present any problems, and the fact that it has a compressor (albeit basic) is fantastic.Īs you may expect from Behringer, this little mixer is robust and sounds fine for what I bought it for. It's compact so sits well next to my laptop allowing plenty of room for camera stand and speakers. I bought this Xenyx Q502 for my laptop and video calling, and it's great.
