8 Flexible Channels of Connectivity

The Behringer Ultralink MS8000 8-channel microphone splitter sends your mic signal to multiple locations, such as mixing consoles, stage monitors, and broadcast trucks. This, for example, would allow you to connect to front of house and your in-ear monitors simultaneously. Eight inputs and 16 outputs provide you with plenty of flexibility, while a Lift/Ground switch and linkable channels make the Ultralink MS8000 an indispensable tool for stage and studio. How many uses could you come up with for the Behringer Ultralink MS8000 8-channel microphone splitter?

Behringer Ultralink MS8000 at a Glance:
  • Direct and Link outputs offer amazing flexibility
  • Input Link function doubles your outputs
Direct and Link outputs offer amazing flexibility

The Behringer Ultralink MS8000's eight front-panel XLR inputs make it easy to connect your microphones and DI boxes, even in a crowded rack. A Lift/Ground switch improves your sound by eliminating hum and other ground loop noises. An XLR Direct Out sends your signal post-transformer, while an XLR Link Out sends it pre-transformer. This allows you to send the Direct Out signal to front of house or a mixing console, while simultaneously sending the Link Out signal to your monitor board or headphone mixer.

Input Link function doubles your outputs

By employing the Behringer Ultralink MS8000's Input Link function, you can link two adjacent channels. This allows you to connect a source to one channel and send it from the outputs of two channels. Imagine plugging your mic into Channel 1. You could then send your signal to front of house and a monitor mixer from Channel 1's outputs, while sending it to a recording interface and broadcast mixer from Channel 2's outputs. The Ultralink MS8000 also allows you to link two adjacent channels and merge their source into a single output, which is great for managing multiple playback devices or converting stereo signals to mono.

Behringer Ultralink MS8000 Features:
  • 8-in/16-out microphone splitter
  • Direct and Link outputs let you send pre- and post-transformer signals
  • Lift/Ground switch eliminates hum and other ground loop noises
  • Input Link function doubles your outputs
  • Passes phantom power from your console or mic pre to Direct Outputs
The Behringer Ultralink MS8000 8-channel mic splitter is a useful tool for stage and studio!

Low cost and does its job.

I use these both as a front panel input for our X32, and to split our microphone signals when necessary to a FOH console. They're sleek, inexpensive, and have done what they're designed to do without issue for multiple rehearsals and performances.

I see some reviews say that they're noisy, but I've not experienced this. I have to wonder if some of the reviewers realize that you can't just bolt equipment into a rack and be completely free of ground loops. ALL of my rack equipment that passes audio is isolated from the rails, screws, and other units by Humfrees isolation tabs which are also available from Sweetwater.

Works perfectly for Live Broadcasting

I do live broadcasting online for church, bands, weddings, etc. thus allows me to go to any venue, plug everything into the splitter, the send signals to both the FOH sound guy, and the other to my soundboard, which is currently the XR18. The ground lift is a huge help, and I've also had no issues with phantom power. I ended buying to two, to have 16 channels.

Perfect for in ear rack

I use 2 of these to split the mic sends to my X Air 18. Works perfect. I also used the Humfree's Iso Tabs. I figured while switching it over to another rack, just to add them to be safe. Sounds great! Would buy again!

Don't Buy this without buying Humfree's Iso Tabs! After properly isolating rack gear, this thing is GREAT.

Bought this unit for the price and needing a way to IEM's/tracks for my band live and being able to split our signal to FOH. It was SO noisy when I plugged it in and the ground lift buttons did nothing. I saw at someone else's suggestion to buy those Iso Tabs, overnighted them and installed them. $ plus shipping for tabs for 2 rack units. It's NIGHT AND DAY difference noise wise. Ground lift buttons now are effective (because each unit it is actually grounded and not transmitting ground hum over the rails etc.)

For the price this thing is fantastic but don't forget the ISO TABS!

Perfect for my band. Works great.

Perfect for my band, we plug instruments and mics into the inputs, and one of the outputs goes to our digital monitor mixer, and the other outputs go to the front of house.. Love it..
