I own a MX602A myself. Sounds alright, though I mostly only use it for monitor-level now. Behringer products aren't exactly noiseless.

Not to start a war but behringer stuff is just as quiet or noisey as it's competitors in the same price range. If you are getting a lot of noise out of a mixer and think you should not be check all of your gain stages it's not unusual to have 4 to 5 different gain stages on a channel on a mixer and if even one is out of kilter you can have lot's of noise. Just a thought.

I record to PC with a Behringer Eurorack UB1832FX, which I think is similar. It has a little noise at high volume, but it doesn't bother me too much as I raise the input volume at the source to compensate. Depending upon the desired frequency range of the recording, in the end, I also remove unwanted noise using Audacity, which is free. I think it has a fairly good algorithm for a free program.

| Bob you're right. I wasn't meaning to diss Behringer in particular. I just founded my statement in the most equipment in that pricerange that I ever came into contact with being - Behringer. |

I bought a Samson MDR624 for a slightly higher price because of a slightly better sound quality, but I agree about noise - raise your source inputs as high as you can so you're not reamplifying a high percentage of source noise, and grin and bear it. Go back and listen to "Band of Gypsies", and feel smug about the progress we've made....  |

Yep you guys are right you always get what you pay for. I didn't know they were 59.00 LOL heck I spend more on chewing gum a month than that :-)Behringer stuff is ok but I'm not in bed with them I'd rather have a Mackie board for just a little more cash or even some of those new alesis mini usb mixers it seems like every company is making a cheap line of small usb and non usb mixers.

| I just ordered a nice little Peavey mixer for $89.00. It seemed to fit my needs the best. I wanted something that I could plug a mike into and run in combination with my backup rack system. This little mixer includes phantom power for the mike. |
