Where to buy XENYX QX1832USB (0601-AFV)

For the person who runs sound for everyone else.

The band is setting up, the singers want monitors, and someone has to make it all work. The guide shows this mixer with a band or small church running stage monitors, and in a project studio. Six XENYX mic preamps take the microphones. The COMP knob sets the amount of compression on a channel.

Monitor mixes the stage can hear

A channel's MON knob feeds the MON SEND/OUT jack, and the MON SEND fader sets the monitor level. On this model, AUX 1 adds another send: press PRE to use it as an extra monitor mix. SUB 1-2 faders set the output of the SUB OUTPUT jacks.
