But the XENYX X1222USB isn’t just designed to handle your live gigs; it also provides the state-of-the-art tools you need to make stunning, professional-quality recordings. Along with its built-in audio/USB interfaces, the XENYX X1222USB comes with all the recording and editing software you need to turn your computer system into a complete, high-performance home recording studio.

All XENYX mixers have one thing in common: great-sounding, high-headroom XENYX mic preamps. These state-of-the-art mic preamps represent a significant step in the evolution of audio technology, and they can easily hold their own, even when compared to more expensive standalone mic preamps. XENYX preamps deliver an astonishing 130 dB dynamic range, with a bandwidth that extends from below 10 Hz to well above 200 kHz. Armed with these remarkable mic preamps, XENYX mixers deliver performance so transparent and crystal-clear, you might think someone upgraded your mics while you weren’t looking.

Our studio-quality compressor is based on famous, classic studio gear from the 1970s. This fully transparent and musical compressor design allows its full dynamic range to shine until your signal reaches the compression threshold, indicated by the highly visible status LED. The compressor increases sustain and gently smooths out signal peaks, which is especially useful when you're playing funk, slap, and pop, or hammering out your most aggressive metal lines. The resulting output level lets you unleash powerful, impact-packed bass lines—while staying right where you need to be in the mix!
