ii was looking to buy a mixer these holidays....

I wanted something with 4 stereo channels..
If something is advertised with 5 for example,

does it mean that they are all stereo, and one mono... or what????

I mean, when there is a certain number of channels advertised about a mixer, how do i know how many "stereo" channels the mixer actually has>???

i dont think they would ever have a mono channels except for a mic channel.

if they say 4 channel mixer, i think they mean 4 stereo channels.

stereo is pretty much the norm...thats what you have and red and a white rca cable, so you can have stereo sound. When. if ever did you see a mixer without 2 rca outs for every channel?

Thanks guys....


i know it was a n00b question...

but i was just checking to make sure...

appreciate the help....

having had a look at that....

do u think it's possible to attach 2 turntables and a laptop with 2 channels of output to this mixer???

I think maybe you should have a read of other sources before you ask any more questions here.
Off the top of my head, www.recess.co.uk (i think)

Seriously, and I don't mean that in a bad way, but maybe you should read as much as you can, cos these are simple questions that you have to understand without us feeding you answers.
You have to understand this stuff yourself, you won't understand by us just telling you each time.

not to bring up this debate again...
but as Abhay said, its good for the price. And you all keep telling the noobs, to do the research on there own so they can find the answers for themselves.

And Abhay claimed to do the research,

so I'd say let him be.

I personally own the mixer, and haven't found the much wrong with it for the price. I have even palyed a few large house parties with it, and found it to preform just fine.

In my history here, I've seen most members more quick to tell people how some equipment is crap rather then help. Or yell at that member to search, rather then providing assistant. I know most memebers here don't read stickies, and didn't when they first got here(though some may claim they did). Remember we were all new to the scene once too. I just wish members weren't so quick to yell about searching, as the serch function here can be very time consuming to find what you're looking for, and usally dosen't produce the results you were hoping to find. So, if I may, if you see a noob post, and feel the urge to knock it, why not just ingnor it rather then kepping that topic active for other top drop in and complain about noobs being so lazy and not doing there research.

Ok end of my rant...I'm going to help Abhay anyways

YES, providing you have the cables for your computer. That cable being, a quater inch stero plug that would plug into your PC, and then would split into 2 rca plugs(red and white).

The best place to find those plugs/adapters, whould be radio shack.

Do you really have 2 out puts on your labtop? I'm just asking as I didn't know they did that for labtops(sorry computer audio is my weak point in the pc world)

OK Abhay,
about behringer, I don't own it, but I wouldn't want to either. It may work for some, it hasn't worked for some. With low-end equip. you're actually gambling w/ your $. It may last, it may not. And think about, why that one???
Well if you want 2 TT and a laptop w/ 2 outputs (which I'm also wondering how....do you have an external audio card?) you don't have to have 4 channels. Most mixers have assignable channels, for example
a two channel mixer could have 1 line in & 1 phono input per channel, so unless you wanna use all 4 sources at the same time, this would work.
Also, with the pc you could already have whatever effects you want on, at least, whats comming from it.

Another good advice is the "baby steps". IF you are gonna start mixing, don't try all at once. Get Good at something (beatmaching, etc) and upgrade slowly as you get better and manage to save the dough. That way you learn to get the most out of everything and you could probably afford better stuff.
