Does the Behringer MICROMIX MX400 4-Channel Mixer work with a battery or only with the AC adapter?

I've been powering it through an AC adapter. It doesn't look like there is space inside to put a battery in. However you can always grab one of these:Battery Holder for (8) AA with Standard Snap Connector : BH383 (1)and attach a regular input cable. You will get 12V out, exactly what this little baby needs.

The unit itself does not have any battery compartments. Included is a 12V adapter as it's only power source, but if you know what you're doing, you can create a rig that uses batteries.

The Behringer C-1 is a condensor microphone. It requires what is called phantom power. This is where the device it is plugged into provides 48 volts DC to power the microphone. The mixer does not provide phantom power. You can use an external power supply for the mic which would plug inline between the mic and the mixer.

Your best bet may be to get the Alesis MultiMix 4 USB Four-Channel USB Mixer from Amazon. It's $66.99 with free shipping. The PDMIKC5 requires phantom power and supplies it's own with an internal 9 volt battery. You may need an adapter to connect one of it's outputs to the 1/8 inch computer audio input.

Yes. Mine included an AC cord and seems to work fine. I did notice on a couple of the pots that you should turn down the volume while adjusting as it sometimes gives a rather loud pop that can be very loud in headphones but once you have it stable at the level of choice, the mixer works great. Good solution at low cost for a small studio.

It will not work without a 48v phantom power. You'll need either a mixer that have 48 volt phantom powered XLR input/s, or a 48v phantom power adapter.

I've always used it with batteries. However, I did purchase the Zoom Accessory Pack for the H2n Portable Recorder which includes among other things an AC power adapter. Available at Amazon for $29.25.

I have mine working with a USB powered mixer without phantom power and seems to work just fine.

This is just an audio mixer NOT an amp. It run on AC current of 110 to 120 volts at 60 cycles.

I think you are asking if the mixer also may be powered by direct connection to a wall outlet, in addition to being battery operated . . . The answer would be YES! It comes with an external power supply and all necessary power cords.

Yes, I have it plugged into a small 4 channel mixer that is connected to a keyboard amp and it works fine.

this microphone requires phantom power. If your audio interface or mixer does not have a Phantom power supply built in, you will need to purchase a phantom power supply to insert into your signal chain.

The power supply input only support 120VAC/60hz. You will need transformer that converts 220VAC to 120VAC and an adapter plug. Please go to an electronic store in Europe for more info. Failure to this may damage the mixer power supply. Hope it helps.

A simple USB wont give you the voltage. Since is a delicate device I will sugest you a simple mixer the most simple INE $70-100

I saw a complaint by a couple of people about another small Behringer model that the Phantom power wasn't really 48V but something like 14 or 18V which might work with some mics but not others. Not sure if it was this model or not, however. I thought it was a $49.95 model.

Yes, this mixer has 48v phantom power for the two mic preamps. There is one button for both of them so you can't control them individually. They will power any condenser mic.

It will run off a 12v battery if you want to rig up a external rechargeable battery pack. I would use a 4 amp/hour gel-cell. That should be enough to run for at least eight hrs. before charging. It depends on how many headsets, the impedance, and how loud you push it. I run two amplifiers on one 4 AH battery for recording on location & never run low. One thing though, Behringer uses a 2.5mm center pin instead of 2.1mm for the 12vdc connector. If you want to make a power cable to run off battery, or use one power supply for several amplifiers, will need to get 2.1mm to 2.5mm adapters or 2.5mm connectors to make your own cables. Several ways to do it. Whatever meets your needs. It will run off a 12v battery if you want to rig up a external rechargeable battery pack. I would use a 4 amp/hour gel-cell.

By "the adaptor" I assume you are refering to the external power supply. The unit I purchased was designed for use in the United States and was shipped with the appropriate power supply. If you check the Behringer website, you will find that they DO sell replacement power supplies for other countries as well.
