 Very nice, inexpensive mixerOct 17, 2009
This is an awesome mixer which offers lots of input options for the budget musician. Truth be told, I really don't know much about mixing gear but it does what I needed very well in order to record my own home demos. This is a great value for the money!

Excellent seller!!
Great MixerSep 23, 2009
I was pleasantly surprised at how well this little mixer performs. It was exactly what I needed to record myself singing karaoke on the computer. For the price it does a very good job. I don't detect any hum at all and I only get hiss when I crank the volume up too high. I recommend this mixer for your home studio. It works perfectly with my sound card. You do NOT need USB to get this to work.

 Good for entry-levelSep 23, 2009
This product is well-built and would be quite useful for someone who's just getting started or when budget prohibits shopping for higher-end products.
I am returning the product because I am highly dissatisfied with the tone of the preamp. I was hoping to put this between myself and an M-Audio Firewire 410 so I wouldn't have to keep resetting levels between bass, guitar, etc. However, the Firewire 410 preamp sounds so many times better than the preamp in the 802 that I was forced to abort mission.
Fiddling with the Eq made things a little better, but the difference between the 802 and direct is still unbelievable. Plus, who wants to put a bunch of Eq on an incoming recording signal and have one more thing to mess with trying to get ideas down?
I give the 802 three stars because it seems like a quality product, but would advise more discriminating users to save up and get something with a better preamp.
Decent mixer, good priceAug 28, 2009
I purchased one of these mixers for some remote video recording (using the mixer for the audio portion, obviously) recently and found it to be a good on-site mixer, with only a few draw backs. I had set it up with 4 microphones (2 mono XLR Behringer dynamic and 1 mono 1/4" TS dynamnic behringer, and 1 mono 1/4" TS dynamic Philips) set up around the subject. I am not sure if it was the mixing of pre-amped with non-amped inputs, the placement of the mics, or the mics themselves, but the sound came out a bit "tinny." I suspect the mics were the problem, so I am planning on buying 4 new Behringer condenser mics (2 c-4 AND 2 c-2).
The main problem I had with the mixer - which could be attributed to the mixer - was the number of pre-amps and XLR inputs. The 802 would be nice for a small, close-in production, but I would hessitate using it in a band, where multiple inputs are desirable. To that end I plan on purchasing one of the 1204 units and using this as a back-up mixer.
While the mixers are nicely portable, they would be useless in an outdoor operation, where battery power would be required.
On the whole, the 802 is a nice little unit, and very useful to the home/small studio enthusiast.
