XENYX UFX1204
The incredible XENYX UFX1204 is one of the best-sounding 12-Input, 4-Bus compact live-sound mixers you’ve ever heard, thanks to 4 premium-grade XENYX Mic Preamps, “oneknob” Compressors, 3-band mono-channel British EQs with sweepable Mid band – and a world-class, 24-bit Multi-FX processor. But the XENYX UFX1204 is light-years beyond the average live-performance mixer; it also provides the state-of-the-art tools you need to make stunning, professional-quality recordings.
Along with a built-in 16 x 4 USB/FireWire audio interface, the UFX1204 comes with a download license for the legendary, and easy to use Tracktion 4 Music Production Software – a suite that will instantly turn your computer system into your very own personal, high-performance home recording studio. Plus, you can use the UFX1204’s built-in 16-Track USB-Recorder to record your next live gig (or session) directly to a USB stick – or your PC/Mac computer. Additionally, the UFX1204’s transport section can even function as remote control for your computer-based DAW via its convenient, onboard MIDI capability.
Buit-in 16-Track Recorder
The UFX1204 mixer makes it easy to capture your live performances or home recording sessions. Just plug a USB stick into the rear panel, hit the record button on the 16-track recorder control interface – then relax and enjoy the show. When you get home from the gig, you can even control your compatible computer-based DAW using the UFX1204’s transport via MIDI.
Sonically Superior Mic Preamps
The XENYX UFX1204 gets its name from our legendary, high headroom XENYX mic preamps, which have been praised by audio engineers all over the world. These state-of-the-art mic pres represent a major step in the evolution of audio technology – and they can easily hold their own, even when compared to the most expensive stand-alone mic preamps. XENYX preamps off er a staggering 130 dB of dynamic range, with a bandwidth that extends from below 10 Hz to well above 200 kHz. Armed with these outstanding mic preamps, the XENYX UFX1204 provides such transparent, crystal-clear performance you just might think someone upgraded your mics while you weren’t looking.
One-Knob Compression
Ask professional sound engineers what their favorite piece of external processing gear is and the majority response will be virtually unanimous – dynamic compression. What is compression? We’re glad you asked. Compression essentially limits the dynamic range of a signal, lowering the level of loud sounds and turning up softer sounds, to achieve sonic balance. But applying compression is a delicate art that many novice, and even intermediate, sound techs find challenging. Our “one-knob” compression is available on all mono channels and is easy to operate, even for entry-level users. With this one knob, you can easily dial in the perfect amount of compression for instruments and vocals, creating powerful mixes with punch and clarity. This is indeed a rare feature for products in this class – but standard on the XENYX UFX1204 mixer.
Sublimely Musical British EQ
The British consoles of the 1960s and ‘70s changed the sound of rock and roll – without them the British Invasion might not have happened. Those legendary mixing desks soon became the envy of engineers and producers all over the world. The channel EQ on your UFX1204 mixer is based on that very same circuitry, allowing you to imbue signals with incredible warmth and detailed musical character. Even when applied generously, these equalizers exhibit sweet forgiveness and superb audio quality.
Mono channels on the UFX1204 benefit from our highly musical “British” 3-band EQ with semi-parametric Mid controls, allowing you to dial in the ideal frequency centers and boost or cut by as much as 15 dB – for incredibly-accurate tonal optimization. All mic channels also feature individually-switchable, true +48 V phantom power, so you can use top-of-the-line studio condenser microphones – a feature virtually unheard of on a mixer in this class!
FX and Functionality
We gave the UFX1204 a very high-end, stereo Multi-FX processor with 16 editable presets that include world-class reverbs, chorus, flanger, delay, phaser, multi-effects and Tap functionality – for the ultimate in live performance enhancement. Complete with its own dedicated level meter, these effects provide a wide range of enhancement options, from sweet and mild to absolutely wild!
Extraordinary Value
From input to output, the UFX1204 mixer is all about functionality, ease of use and ultimate versatility. Mono channels feature our legendary XENYX mic preamps, and accept both balanced XLR and ¼ ” TRS, as well as unbalanced ¼ ” TS connections. A Line/Hi-Z switch is also provided on channels 1 & 2 so you can connect acoustic, electric and bass guitars without the need for an external DI box. Add to this an extensive Talkback section with onboard Mic; mono channel Inserts; 2 Aux Sends per channel; 2 stereo Aux Returns; a plethora of output options; free Tracktion download; plus, the built-in 16 x 4 USB/FireWire interface and 16-Track USB-Recorder let you record directly to a USB stick – or your PC/Mac computer.
