Got a Behringer QX 1204 USB Mixer. I attached a condensor mic to channel 1 and turned the phamtom power on. I attached a headphone to the phone socket. I could hear my voice but any number of permutation or combination, I could not add any effect to my voice. The QX 1204 USB is supposed to have FX effects. Where am i wrong?

Did you turn on the phantom power? Condenser mics need phantom power(unless the have their own battery.)

Testimonial: "The effects are coming out of the main outputs but not from the headphone socket."

    Somewhere near the control room/headphone volume control should be a button that sends the FX to the control room. That should send it to the headphones, too.

SOURCE: Korg pa800 mic input makes funny noise

First turn the unit off then rotate the input level volume control. If it feels loose pull up lightly on it as you do this. Also rotate all your controls that you don't normally use a lot. Chances are the pots are dirty. If that doesn't help you might want to check all the connectors inside the unit if you feel confident enough to go poking around. Other wise I suggest that you find a shop that will fix the problem. If you do go poking around make sure the units unplugged and that you have grounded yourself against static discharges.

SOURCE: faulty effects behringer djx700

The effects on the PMP powered mixers flash UNTIL you push in on the selector knob. This way you can dial in the next effect number and then push in later to activate when you want it... Could yours possibly be the same technique?

SOURCE: my effects on the behringer djx 700 dj mixer stop working how

This is a wild educated guess.

I repaired a Behringer guitar amp that had a DSP effects in it (BX1200 I believe).

The effects were on a seperate board and the board had its own 5 volt power supply. The filter capacitor for the 5 volt power on the board was UNDERSIZED and it had degraded causing the 5 volts to drop out of regulation, dipping to 4 volts. This caused the DSP effects to fail.

YOUR device MAY use the same DSP OR design.

Check the 5 volt power with an OSCILLOSCOPE to look for dips below the 5 volt operating point that occur at 120 HZ.

SOURCE: I just purchased A behringer PMP4000. It has built

Check the FX to main level to make sure it is not too high. Also check the main FX fader level. Try turning each of these down and see if that corrects the issue. The FX fader should control the volume level of the FX globally (mon sends as well as main outs), and the FX to main should only affect the mains output. Make sure FX to mon1 and FX to mon2 are turned all the way down.
Also check what FX program your using and that the FX IN button is depressed, try starting w/ #10 (small room) and see how that sounds.

SOURCE: When i have my FX

Check the 5 volts to the FX unit, If the voltage is low, the FX processor will keep reseting generating clicks, In a different product, the 5 volt filter cap was degraded and voltage dipped down to 4.5 volts causing resets.

How can I reduce white noise / hissing I'm getting over the mic on a Behringer Xenyx 1204 USB setup?

Hi, you didn't say if the mic actually passes sound? The C-1 is a condenser Mic & needs phantom power - switch on the rear of your mixer. If that's no help, what happens if you disconnect the mic, then turn the levels back up? Still hissing or gone? If it's gone then it's the Mic - must use a 3 wire cable, preferably XLR so it gets the phantom power. If the hiss is still there without the Mic then sounds like the mixer is faulty - try some of the other channels..... How loau is the hiss - just in the background or as load as a vocal "one, two" test? A few things to check anyway...... Good Luck!

Can't hear playback through Headphone socket, only through speaker monitors!

i suggest you contact Behringer Customer Service for advixce. Without the setup in front of me, it's hard to figure out the wire routeing, switch positions, ect. that may be leading to this problem. As they would be the people most familiar with the gear, they'sd be the people to ask. http://www.music-group.com/support/behringer/askquestion

I need driver update to connect with pre sonus artist one software

If you use the Behringer ASIO drivers (available from their web site) it will connect just fine, you should also be able to use the sound card drivers that came with the computer as they should pick up on the mixer (assuming it is a USB version) but you do not say if you have a Mac, PC or what operating system you are running so it is impossible to be precise

What causes my cd/tape input doesn't work anymore.

Make sure that the cable going to the left and right inputs is OK. Try another cable or test with a different recorder.

I want to set up my behringer fbq1502

It sounds as if you are not running in series. I assume you are in an insert on the mic channel. The insert send should go to the first item in the chain, then from the output of that to the input on the next item and so on until the output of the final item in the chain goes back to the return on the insert. This is applicable to the type of equipment you have detailed, in some cases however you may be running effects in parallel. Your case is definitely a series situation.

IF your Laptop has a stereo LINE 1/8" INPUT jack, you can take the Stereo ( Left & Right ) LINE outputs on your mixer and feed into this jack on your PC. You will need a 1/4" dual plug for the mixer end to a single 1/8" stereo plug on the PC end. I suspect the problem you are having is either related to your PC only have a MIC input jack or you have something set wrong in your PC's sound config. file. More information is needed to properly solve the problem.

Behringer europower pmp1000, mixer unit, has all leds lit ,is responding to mic. input, bur is not producing any ourput to speakers, can you advise please.

ALL LED's should NOT be lit all the time. If thsy are, there is a failure in the power supply.

plug headphones into the 1/4 inch main output jacks on the top... you will only hear sound in the left side headphone for each. This would verify the preamp is working.

It is possible, you can simply put a Y-cable for Mic or a splitter for the mbox and the Mic. You can plug the mic directly to the mixer then the other jack on the splitter connected to the mbox.

Here is a link to what your looking for,

I can't tell from the add but hopefully it comes with adapters for both plugs that will work on your mixer. It does have the one for the headphones but the one for the mic is not clear, they are not interchangeable.

You would obviously plug the headphones into the headphone jack. The knob labeled "Phones/Control Room" will control the volume without changing what's being broadcast. What you hear in you phones is exactly what you are broadcasting.

The microphone needs to go into either mono channel 1 or 2. The adapter for it needs to be a mono Tip/Sleeve adapter as the more common stereo Tip/Ring/Sleeve adapter may cause some problems. You can tell the difference by looking at how many sections are on the plug divided by a little black line. Two sections is mono, three is stereo.

Adjust you microphone level by setting the volume knob, the one on the very bottom, to the 12 o'clock position. Then turn the gain knob, the smaller plastic one on the very top, until the desired volume is reached. If you experience any clipping or distortion turn the gain knob down until it goes away. These are general settings, you may want to experiment until you get the best level without noise.
