How can i connect a Behringer xenyx 802 mixer to a Fisher TAD 9315

We were looking for a cheap alternative to our events at work and had a nice yardsale find of a Fisher TAD 9315. I figured if i use either the video or phono inputs of the system, i could connect a Behringer Xenyx 802 mixer board using two radio shack 1/4 mono phone plug to 90 mono (rca) cables (Radio Shack P/N 42-2440 and 42-2440A). When i powered the system up and raised the volume considerably i could hear the music really faint. I tried making the switch to video and phono, but neither would work. I removed the mixer and plugged in my ipod directly to the video plug using an RCA (red/white) cable to male stereo and the system picked the sound right up. While i can kind of guess at some thing, I dont really have teh background in audio and was trying to see if someone could make some suggestions as to how i could make this setup work.

What you've done should have worked on the video input. The phono will not sound like you'd want. Have you made sure the mixer is working correctly by trying it plugged into a different amp using the same outputs and cable?

SOURCE: I have the 2442 fx behringer

Check you assign buttons and bottom (three black square buttons) and play with them. It sounds as if you are not sending to that side. You should use mono cables into left and right. I set pan on left all the way left and right, all the way right. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: connect active subwoofer to Studiomaster Walkabout

You CANNOT have a stereo set of RCA jacks "wyed" into a single XLR mono input.

The RCA output drivers will "fight" each other. Some things will appear to work, but give poor performance.

You could make a rudimentary passive mixer by putting a series resistor say 1K ohms from each of the RCA's to a common UNBALANCED input of a subwoofer.

The XLR is balanced so that would not really work unless you also have an unbalanced input on the subwoofer.

The right way to do this is to get a cheap two input mixer that has EQ with it and mix your two mains before sending to the subwoofer. You want a little mixer that also has balanced outputs (XLR or TRS) to send to the subwoofer.

UNLESS the subwoofer has EQ in it, you really need to have an EQ in the little mixer so that you don't send high's to the subwoofer... They don't like highs and the sound will suffer.

SOURCE: Behringer XENYX 1622FX, won't power on. Phantom power works(?)

After reviewing the schematic, I don't understand how the Phantom power can REMAIN on with the power switch off... this CANNOT occur except for what energy is left in the 48 volt supply filter cap... This might last for minutes after the fuse went... UNLESS you have devices connected which are backfeeding the 48 volts. (which would be a disaster)

The 48 volts, +/- 12 volts and +/- 15 volts and the +5 volts ALL come from the SAME switching power supply. I suspect one of the filter caps went or the primary switching regulator a TDP245Y chip.

You should ONLY work on the line side of this using an ISOLATION transformer since the line side has lethal voltages.

To do testing, one replaces the fuse and puts a 60 Watt light bulb in series with the hot side of the inout line. The lamp "acts" as a resetable fuse and limits the current for testing. When all is well again, the lamp will remain out with the power flowing through it.

The D1 diode bridge and C7 input rectifier and filter are first things to check. You can do those with an ohmmeter.

I will caution you to ALWAYS power any and all equipment from the SAME power source. Plugging in devices from across the room will set up ground loops and any ground fault will fry equipment.

SOURCE: hi all i own a behringer

You would need TWO DC supplies as they use AC so they can create both a plus and minus 15 volt power source to run the internal op amps.

Here is a schematic for the 1202 which has same power supply configuration as the 802.

Scroll down to the little link "Get Manual" and download the service manual and schematic. You will find the power input in the upper left corner of page 5.

My behringer xenyx 802 premium 8-input mixer worked fine for 1 day but now it sounds watery and behringer support was no help at all

Sounds like it may have failed. Yes, it is likely that it needs to be returned. Another option is to unplug all inputs and outputs. Plug in ONE device into the board, and use the headphone jack on the board. Does it sound the same? Just basic troubleshooting may help.

How would i connect a Behringer 1002B Xenyx to a hercules mk4 mixer

The main output jacks of the 1002 are PSUEDO balanced so you can use TS to RCA connections from the 1002 to the MK4. It is not hte best design, but it will work... with two cables go from the 1002 main outs to the stereo ins of the MK4.

I'm looking to run 5 live instruments through the behringer xenyx 802, is this possible? Would the split channels force the instruments to pan? Any help would be much appreciated?

You could use the Left inout of one of the stereo channels. You can pan it with the balance control as needed... HOWEVER remember these are LINE LEVEL signal levels into the stereo jacks... so if you are using instruments with low output you MIGHT have to use a preamp to go into these jacks. Try it... nothing ventured, nothing gained. Using a keyboard into these jacks would NOT be a problem.

How can i setup mu xenyx 802 with my pc? i also hve fca202...

You can do it one of two ways when coupled with the FCA202. First, You can just come out of the main outs on the 802 via 1/4 in to the 202s 1/L in and 2/R in. Second, you could do two separate channels (ie. Vocal channel and Guitar Channel) using the L/R out on the 802. Use the pan knob to send the instrument to the selected channel. So, If your Guitar is on channel 1 pan hard left and you will only get it out of the left channel sending to channel 1 of the 202, and your vocal is in channel 2 pan hard right and you will only get it out of the left channel sending to channel 2 on the 202. Good Luck, Cody J.
