Behringer MX400

I was needing a mixing apparatus so i could merge various signals from different sources and the Behringer MX400 was the cheapest, simplest and smallest of all.

It does a decent job as its low in noise if you don't turn it up to 11.
The small form was a deciding factor as i can use the mixing desk on top of my synths or on my pedalboard without to much hassle.
It has a great feature that is working as a passive mixing desk if the power is out.

The building is ok with a metal chassis and the knobs feel fine.
I have used it in more applications that I was thinking of when i get it.
Sometimes me and my friends want to jam (2 guitars with pedals, a bass and a synth) and now we can all do it using just one amp.

It would be perfect if it could be battery powered but i guess you can't ask for everything at this price point and probably it would drain the batteries in a few minutes so Behringer's engineers don't give us that option.

If you need a small, well build, simple and cheap mixing desk i would recomend the Behringer MX400

+ it's cheap and works as expected;
+ built like a tank;
+ sounds good unless you max its output (you'll get an overdrive in this case);
+ it's quite useful if you need to connect a few instruments to your main mixer or sound interface and has limited inputs on it;
+ but NOTICE! in case you want to use its output with headphones you will need mono to stereo adapter, e.g. "the sssnake 1936 Adapter".

I bought this to combine two guitar channels into one (one with effects and one clean). I wanted something that lets me adjust their corresponding volumes. So Behringer MX400 is definitely doing the trick. I would have loved if the output was stereo and panning options were available, but nevertheless this is a great product. It's actually quite solid, sturdy-made which was impressive for Behringer.
