XENYX 1622FX/1832FX/2222FX/2442FX
Dear Customer,
I'm sure you're one of
those people who have
devoted themselves
body and soul to your
chosen area and no
doubt this has made you
an expert in your field.
Well, for over 30 years,
my passion has been
music and electronics.
This not only led me to
establish BEHRINGER,
but also enabled me to
share my enthusiasm
with our employees.
During all the years I've
been involved with
studio technology and
end users, I have
developed a feel for the things that really count, such as sound
quality, reliability and ease of use. What is more, I have always
had the desire to test the boundaries of what is technically
feasible.
It was precisely this motivation that prompted me to start work
on a new series of mixing consoles. Since our EURORACKs had
already set new standards world-wide, I knew the development
objectives behind the next generation of mixing consoles had to
be especially ambitious.
Thus, the concept and design of the new XENYX mixing consoles
bear my signature. The design work, the entire circuit diagram
and PCB development, and even the mechanical concepts are
my own work. I carefully selected each individual component -
with the aim of pushing the mixing consoles' combining analog
and digital technologies to their limits.
My vision was to enable you, the user, to give free rein to your
true potential and creativity. The result is mixing consoles that
combine incredible performance with intuitive operability. They
cannot fail to impress with their extremely flexible routing
possibilities plus a fantastic wealth of functions. Innovative
technologies, such as the completely new XENYX Mic Preamps
and the "British" EQs, guarantee optimum sound quality. And
extraordinarily high-quality components provide unrivalled
reliability, even under extreme loads.
Thanks to the quality and ease of use of your new XENYX
mixing console you'll soon come to appreciate that I, both
personally and in my capacity as musician and sound engineer,
put you, the end user, first and that these products were only
possible because of the passion and the attention to detail that
went into them.
Thank you for the confidence you have placed in us by purchasing
the XENYX mixing console. I should also like to thank all those
who, with their personal commitment and passion, have helped
me create this impressive series of mixing consoles.
Kindest regards,
Uli Behringer
