From Our Research Team:A Complete 20-channel Live Mixing Rig to Go!If you're in charge of setting up full-scale sound in small- to medium-sized temporary locations, then the Peavey XR 1220 is a perfect powered mixer for you. First and foremost is the XR 1220's layout - a traditional mixing console format that's easy to operate for hours on end. But despite its less-compact form, the XR 1220 isn't unnecessarily bulky or heavy. In fact, thanks to revolutionary new Class D power amplifier technology, the XR 1220 weighs only about 25 lbs. What did Peavey leave out? Not a thing! Not only does the XR 1220 provide you with dual 600-watt outputs and a full 20 channels of input, but it also includes extra features and functions designed to make live mixing easier.Each of the XR 1220's 20 channels includes a microphone preamp with an XLR input, and there are also stereo line-level inputs on the last two channels. That's easily enough input channels to handle a full-sized band. Dual monitor sends as well as an effects send with built-in effects all have their own dedicated faders, which makes on-the-fly adjustments a snap. The EQ section is where things get even cooler. Each of the XR 1220's mono channels (channels 1-18) features a 4-band EQ with Peavey's Mid-morph function. EQing the midrange is the bane of many live engineers, which is what makes Mid-morph an incredibly useful function. Instead of cutting or boosting one frequency range, Mid-morph does both, adjusting the ratio of the high mids to the low mids. Turn it clockwise (up) and vocals become much more intelligible; turn it counterclockwise (down) and you instantly tame the harshness from overheads, amps, and brass. The XR 1220 also gives you a pair of 9-band graphic EQs. Even though you can make EQ adjustments manually, you're far from limited by your ears alone. Plug in an RTA microphone; you can instantly tune each amplifier to accommodate for the frequency response of the room. But that's not all. The XR 1220 also features Peavey's Feedback Ferret technology - a real lifesaver in just about any less-than-ideal environment. Plus, five different power amp modes (including a fully active subwoofer crossover) let you set up your system to best suit the room in the first place. Together, all of these great features mean you can leave behind your rack full of power amps, graphic EQs, crossovers, and feedback suppressors - the Peavey XR 1220 takes care of everything!

by Darryl. from Peoria, IL U.S.A
I bought this for my basement studio mainly. I have a yamaha MG series unpowered, and not being a soundman/engineer, just found it too complicated to get good sound (don't get me wrong, it is an excel... read more [+]lent board also and will run my mains and this one will cover monitors live, but then there will be a soundman. For now it was just beyond my level of knowledge). This board is a godsend. If you search peavey powered mixers on youtube, there are 2 videos (part 1 and 2) showing you in 15 minutes how to use every feature of this and there are many. It takes the guess work and need for alot of technical knowledge out and allows even me to get a good sound. (I'm sure if out in the hands of an expert it would be even better). Other than plugging it in and hooking in the speakers and mics, it about does everything else for you at the push of a button. From the filters cutting unwanted lows, to the auto eq'ing and ESPECIALLY the feedback ferret. ( I've heard people say it just lowers the sound quality...etc.... and maybe it does for an expert. But it certainly gives better sound quality than speaker damaging, ear drum popping feedback. Which without it and me operating a board your sure to get). The other reviewer was right, about the effects just being adequete..... not great, but ok (that could also be my skill level. lol) but even having said that this board is still straight up 5 stars. The power is great, it takes up way less space than my other board on the table, and allowed me to pack up my rack amps leaving more space in my not oversized studio. You really can't go wrong with this. Technology is great isn't it!!! BUY it!! Oh, and just mentioning, I've made probably a half dozen purchases from Sweetwater over the past few years, and they realy seem like a great company to deal with. Comapnies that actually give personal service and care about the indiviual customer have become hard to come by these days. Sweetwater seems to be one of the few. close [-]

by Simpson Desbonne from US Virgin Islands
I bought this muxer to replace my rack of equipment consisting og a peavey USB 14 mixer, Peavey PV1500 power amp, Peavey equalizer, and Lexicon MX400.March 3, 2011 Music Background: Pro Musician Well, I'm still using the Lexicon ... read more [+](the built-in effects pale in comparison), but the XR 1220 does a stellar job of replacing everything else, and saving my aging back in the bargain...heck, just my rolling rack alone weighs more than the XR 1220. This mixer has really good microphone preamps. They are comparable to the mic preamps on the PV series mixers. The power amp easily has enough guts to cover a fairly decent-sized venue. I usually play in outdoor setting for audiences of up to 300 people. I run two Mackie Cs300z's and a Mackie 1801 sub, and the subwoofer output is perfect for my speaker configuration. When you set this mixer to use the subwoofer output, it very effectively removes anything below 100Hz from the mains. That makes me very happy. I give this mixer a 4.5 because of the built-in effects. If you have been spoiled by Lexicon, Alesis, etc. you will find the effects somewhat lacking, but they are usable. There are several types of reverb, and you can adjust some parameters. A nice feature is that you can send reverb to the monitors, so your singer doesn't have to listen to herself "dry" in the monitor. This mixer has made my gigging life so much easier, it's amazing. Buy it, you won't be disappointed. close [-] PV 1220 mixer

As of today I am waiting to get my mixer to the repair shop. The wait time for it to be seen is over a week. Other than the small output of one signal outlet on the monitor 1 powered side, I have no... read more [+] major issues. I think the manual should be more detailed on the capabilities of the unit. The manual does not make it clear that the powered output of the unit are mono when using the unit as a separate powered monitor and powered fronts. It is understandable that the 1/4:" jacks are non powered. What is so confusing is all channels have separate volume controls for monitor 1 & 2 which will not affect the unit in the above powered scene. I have been in pro sound for over 30 years and this is the worse information description I have seen to date. The engineers and sales representatives are excelent to work with! A fantastic company to deal with! close [-]
