3. Käyttö

3.1 Kanavaohjaimet

Each mono channel features a GAIN control for input level adjustment, a LOW CUT button to filter out unwanted low frequencies (75 Hz, 18 dB/Oct), a one-knob COMPRESSOR for dynamic control, and a 3-band British-style EQ (HIGH, MID, LOW) for tone shaping. AUX 1 and AUX 2 controls allow sending signals to external effects or monitor mixes. The PAN knob adjusts the stereo position, and the LEVEL fader controls the channel's output volume.

3.2 Main Mix and Subgroups

The main mix is controlled by the MAIN MIX faders (Left/Right). Channels can be routed to the main mix or to the ALT 3-4 subgroup using the MUTE/ALT 3-4 buttons. The ALT 3-4 faders control the volume of the subgroup output.

3.3 FX Processor

The built-in 24-bit dual engine FX processor offers 16 editable presets including reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, and pitch shifter. Use the PROGRAM/PARAMETER knob to select and adjust effects. The FX SEND controls on each channel determine how much of that channel's signal is sent to the effects processor.

3.4 Valvonta

Connect headphones to the PHONES output for personal monitoring. The PHONES/CTRL ROOM knob adjusts the volume for both the headphone and control room outputs. The 2-TR/USB TO MAIN button routes the 2-track/USB input to the main mix, while the 2-TR/USB TO CTRL ROOM button routes it to the control room/headphones only.

4. Huolto

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Behringer XENYX X1222USB mixer, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Puhdistus: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the mixer. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or controls.
• Pölysuojaus: Pidä mikseri peitettynä, kun sitä ei käytetä, jotta pölyä ei kerry, sillä se voi vaikuttaa liukusäätimiin ja nuppeihin.
• Ympäristöolosuhteet: Operate and store the mixer in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, and vibrations.

• Ei äänilähtöä: Verify all input and output cables are securely connected. Check channel LEVEL faders, MAIN MIX faders, and PHONES/CTRL ROOM knob levels. Ensure MUTE buttons are not engaged.
• Vääristynyt ääni: Reduce input GAIN levels to prevent clipping (indicated by red CLIP LEDs). Check for proper impedance matching between devices.
• No USB Audio: Ensure the USB cable is properly connected to both the mixer and your computer. Verify that the mixer is selected as the audio input/output device in your computer's sound settings and DAW.
• Phantom Power -ongelmat: Confirm the +48V PHANTOM switch is engaged for condenser microphones. Ensure the microphone is compatible with phantom power.
