Must I connect this mixer with RCA cables into an interface/computer to record? Or can I simply plug my XLR microphone in, and record through the USB?

You should be able to record to your computer through the USB to whatever recording software you are using.

You can record straight through the USB. Nifty little thing.But beware, its more of a mixer than a traditional interface, so it doesn't split the tracks you may have already laid down from the new ones you're recording. So basically, EVERYTHING you can hear it in your monitor mix, it's going to be on the track you're currently recording. So if you're recording something live, its perfect. If you're tracking something, not so much...

After you install the driver, your recording software should show it as another input device--then you can record directly through the USB connection.

You need a computer and a software. Then, you plug your mic to the unit and the USB interface cable to the computer. Good luck!

Hi, unless a microphone is listed as a "USB" mic out of the box (meaning there's a USB connector attached to the cord), I would not try to use it as such for fear of lessening the sound quality. This microphone is plugged into a USB Interface, but it is NOT a USB microphone. For my studio, I chose the PreSonus AudioBox22VSL (USB) Interface. I hooked the mic up to the Interface and the USB from the Interface into my computer. My home studio is digital (computer based), so I'm good to go. By the way, the sound quality of this mic is truly nice! Hopefully, this helps. Good luck!

There are two methods of connection, and three possible connection configuration. Two methods of connection: xlr, and 1/4" . If you use xlr you get all four mics on one channel. If you use 1/4" you can use two cables and have two mics total on two separate channels, or you can you the 1/4" to plug in to four channels separately. If your DJ micxer has the xlr and 1/4" inouts then I do not see why you could not connect it to your mixer

Yes, you can. Best if using XLR for L/R, but it also accepts 1/4" inputs. Make sure line level out and may have to tweak gain on mixer out and on recorder in.

The default save to 'WAV' works very easily. I am using mine to transfer LPs to the computer. The turntable and amp is downstairs and the computer is upstairs. I am plugged into the tape out port of the amp and using the line in on the R-05. Save to MP3 and separate tracks when I am on the computer. As far as recording a band or live event, IF you can get a feed from the mixer output it is as easy as any other source. If you are trying to record live thru microphone(s) then it is fairly hard as the builtins are sensitive to wind and vibration. externals plugged in depend on the microphone.

It's got 1/4", RCA, or XLR inputs. Won't go directly into your computer. You'll need some kind of interface like a keyboard, or mixing board, etc. http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B001A6IC7Q/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_0?ie=UTF8&index;=0

This unit is for basic mixing. It has built in preamp for mic and has instrument inputs also. It doesn't have a USB or FireWire for recording to a computer. This would require an audio interface to communicate with a computer (CPU).

Download the driver from this website http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/Q802USB.aspx Once you had it, connect your mixer to the USB port on your computer and install the driver. (the mixer needs to be plugged in when installing the driver)Your computer should recognize the mixer after installing the drive. Good luck!

I connect my Behringer Minimex Mix800 with my karaoke machine and to my Archos DVR station to record my songs. After my songs recorded then I use USB to connect to my PC to download to my computer . That's it ! :)

All you need to do is buy some 1/4 inch to RCA plugs and plug those into the line inputs and you can plug in the line out from your piano and the line out from your laptop into the mixer. I exchanged the this model for the one with eight inputs because I wanted two microphone inputs, but it has the same kind of line inputs and I just plugged in those adapters and they did the trick. I used two RCA adapters on the mike inputs also to record some security microphones which had RCA plugs, and I used some XLR to TRS adapters to plug in my old microphones instead of buying new ones.

I have not tried that but I highly doubt that it will work for computer out to mixing board since it is designed for mixer out to computer. What you need is something like a Peavey USB-P which is usb out of a computer to a box that gives you a left and right transformer isolated xlr out. That is the best way to not only hook up the output of your computer but also to help eliminate any unwanted noise.

Take a look at the image of the rear of the mixer. There is a left and right XLR out. Connect these to your amp or directly to your powered speakers.

This type of microphone requires a "pre-amp". Most mixing boards have these built in to the mic channels but since you are going direct to computer without first going through a mixer you'll need to buy a standalone preamp of some sort.

It'll take any analog audio signal in XLR form and convert it to digital (that's why it's bulky around the USB connector part). Beware, though, this product adds a bit of noticeable hiss and noise to your signal, so you might not want to use it for a final mix if you're outputting from a mixer.

XLR connection with 48v phantom power. Either thru a pre amp or a mixer or interface with phantom power. Can't find anything on a usb capability. Hope this helps.

Let me give you an overview of how this works: This mixer is not a "soundcard" type device, rather it is a simple mixer that will hook up to your computer using the digital USB port. It allows for external sources (music players, microphones, guitars, etc.) to be routed to your computer's USB port as a STEREO ONLY (left & right audio channels) input device. Using USB for an input will give you a cleaner audio signal that using old analog cables (RCA, 1/4", etc.) This mixer is not controlled by the computer, but there are audio parameters that you can adjust on your PC computer. If you go to START&gt;CONTROL PANEL&gt;SOUND there you can find the global audio settings for the computer. After installation you "may" find some additional settings such as Overall Volume, Left or Right Panning, Input Levels and Output Levels as well as what devices are available. This mixer is not a multi-track recording mixer/soundcard, but you can record up to 2 independent channels (left and right) at once, and using recording software such as Cakewalk, Magix Music, Adobe, etc. you can build up a recording using two tracks at a time. This is a great little mixer to start with for uses that do not require advanced audio engineering demands.

Only if you have a USB "audio interface" to go between the computer and mixer
