Behringer Xenyx 802S 8-Input Analog USB Streaming Mixer

Bring microphones, keyboards and computer audio together with the Behringer Xenyx 802S, a compact analogue mixer for podcasters, home studios, church rehearsal teams and small presentations. Eight analogue inputs and a stereo USB interface give you a practical hub for mixing, streaming and recording without a large console.

Two XENYX microphone preamps let you connect a pair of microphones, while switchable +48 V phantom power supports compatible condenser microphones. Adjust gain and shape your sound with three-band EQ to bring out vocal clarity, control low-frequency build-up and balance instruments before they reach your speakers or recording software.

Connect the USB-B port to a compatible Windows or macOS computer for stereo audio input and output at 48 kHz, 16-bit. Record your stereo mix or bring computer playback into your setup. This is a stereo USB interface, not a multitrack recorder that sends every channel separately to your software.

For a Nairobi podcast session, rehearsal or compact event setup, the rotary controls keep level changes close at hand. Main outputs feed powered speakers or a separate amplifier, while monitor and headphone outputs help you check your mix. An FX send allows external effects processing when required; reverb and delay are not built in.

FAQs

Q: Can the Xenyx 802S record each microphone and instrument separately over USB?
A: No. Its USB interface carries two audio channels in each direction as stereo input/output, rather than separate USB tracks for every analogue input.

Q: How do I connect it to a computer and speakers?
A: Power the mixer using its specified 18 VDC, 1 A adapter, connect USB-B to a compatible computer, and select the mixer in your audio software. Connect the main outputs to powered speakers or a separate amplifier. Keep levels low while connecting equipment, then raise gain and output levels gradually. The mixer does not directly power passive speakers.

Q: Can I get the Behringer Xenyx 802S delivered in Nairobi today?
A: Same-day delivery within Nairobi CBD and major suburbs is available for orders placed before the daily cut-off. Contact Zamar Audio Solutions to confirm stock and lock in a delivery window. Countrywide delivery across Kenya is also available, with lead times varying by location.
