Behringer Xenyx 502S 5-channel Analog Streaming Mixer

Worked great for a project studio, works will with the Windows 11 OS for recording direct to you DAW

This mixer is exactly what I needed. I do PA work, so I needed something quite small. This one fits that bill, is quite inexpensive, and doesn't color the sound unless you want to. Having this little beauty in front of me gives me a lot better control over the mic and music. If you're looking for a small mixer, you can't go wrong.

Our church was having issues with live stream audio quality (volume was much too low and the mix was not great) so I bought this in an effort to help. Feeding it with an XLR output from our main sound board and it has been a substantial improvement. One of the great benefits is it is plug and play with both Mac and Windows. Only downside is it only has high, low and compression. Also, the older model I have for personal use has 48v Phantom, which this one does not.It's great as long as you only need those adjustments and no phantom power.

I use a lot of small mixers. Have been using the 802 for years, because I prefer to have low/hi AND mid adjustment on each channel (this one doesn't have a mid knob), but since this is a backup, I got one for the cheaper price. Only the power supply has ever been a problem with these (tiny pins can get bent easily when plugging in - so be careful!). Highly recommend buying a backup power supply to keep on hand.

This mixer does not bring any additional noise into the signal chain. I was concerned about that due to its price. Very nice mixer, performs well!
