Reviews

Great for 80’s guitar & parallel mixing!
Not many reviews of people using this for wet/dry or parallel setups! Amazing quality & versatility! Plenty of level especially for effects with low headroom!
Music background: Rock/Metal guitarist
perfect for studio keyboards
I am a synth junkie, 18 so far.... I'm running three of these bad boys. Very clean and just work!
Great line mixer !
I needed a mixer but didn't have any room for a desktop mixer.
I already had a Behringer line mixer but it only had two stereo channels.
So what I liked about the Behringer RX 1602 was that it was all stereo or all mono.
Check out my unboxing video on my YouTube channel.
I love Behringer gear.
And one more the this thing is pretty quite!

My 2nd RX160 and a great addition
I first reviewed this in April of 2022. Since then my Synthesizer and overall setup has grown, to say the least. After the last 18 months of adding new gear to my Music Workstation Studio, constantly moving things around to accommodate it all and growing a sloppy nest of wires behind it all it was time for me to do a MAJOR rewiring of everything. I pulled my entire Synthesizer Workstation apart and did a complete rewiring, routing and proper bundling of all of the Power Adapters, Wall Arts, and Audio cables. Part of his process was making a better plan for where and how all of my Synths, Drum Machines, and Sound Modules would better Interface with my Tascam Model 12 and workflow. I decided I needed another Behringer RX1600 Pro.

With this second Line Mixer I was able to now feed my 5 Modular Behringer Synths (Neutron, K-2, Pro-1, CAT and Model D thru a Passive Mixer Box into the first 2 Channels of the RX1602, Channel 3/4 have my CRAVE, 5/6 my Arturia MicroFreak, 7/8, 9/10/11/2 Empty leaving me room for more….. OH NO
Channels 13/14 have my Behringer RD6 and 15/16 L/R Outs of Behringer Blue Marvin ARP 2600. What's nice about this setup is:
1- None of these Synths have built in Effects
2- I feed the Stereo Out of the RX1600 into Channels 1&2 of my Tascam which have the INSERT points. I can then use those for my ZOOM MultiStomp Effects Box (or any other Effects Device). This now gives me the option to add Effects beyond what the Tascam offers to any or all of these Synths. This works very well for me as I rarely use all of these Synths at the same time and when and if I do they typically can share a common effect nicely.

My other RX1600 has all of my other Synths and Drum Machines assigned to it( HydraSynth, DigiTone, 5 Roland Boutiques, Korg Volca FM2 and Sample 2) and its L/R outputs feed Inputs 3 & 4 respectively on my Tascam 12. Channel 5 has my Drum Brute Impact, Ch 6 is Empty, 7&8 are fed the L/R Outs of my Moog Matriarch, 9&10 are fed from a MACKIe Big Knob Passive Switch which has my turntable into Channels A and my Alesis SR16 into Channels B, so it's an easy switch for when I want to play some Vinyl Albums through my system.

Overall this new setup with their addition of the 2nd RX1600 has been great. Just like my first review, the RX1600 line mixer is a gem in terms of my options. It is quiet and can handle any signal. The inputs are selectable for +4dBu or when the switch is depressed (-10 dBV), the inputs are
more sensitive. The 7-digit level Left and Right meters are very accurate and the front Mute switch for each channel is a bonus. It fits nicely in the rack under my left side Workstation. It is very solidly made. And.... you can't beat the price. oh and yes, Synthesizers are a bit old an addiction, especially in todays world of technology where you can get such incredible machines for a fraction of what they once cost back in the 70's and 80's.

Stands Up To The Seasons
It's now 2023 and I've had mine since around 2008. Still kickin and just as high! What makes this unique is that it's been housed in a customized sound truck that has endured temps from sub-zero to a sweltering 100+ degrees for those years, even being operated live in the latter. Lots of vibration while traveling also. It sits at the top of a 6-space Gator short rack case and serves as the primary submixer to four wireless mic receivers and channels for CD, iPhone, Weather Radio, and Aux. Then the stereo signal goes on it's merry way thru various ancilliaries and multiple amps. The monitor-out signals from the mics feeds the insert point on the compressor for ducking the music when speaking. It's the perfect tool in the arsenal and you're hard-pressed to find such a versatile equivalent. And it's also a very handsome gent!
