Behringer X18 Description

The Behringer X18 brings the mixing power of Behringer’s X AIR platform into a compact tabletop mixer that works well for bands, venues, churches, studios, rehearsal rooms, and mobile engineers. Its 16 MIDAS-designed mic preamps provide programmable input control for microphones and instruments, while the additional line-level and stereo connectivity options make it flexible enough for complex live or recording setups.

For recording, the X18 functions as an 18x18 bidirectional USB audio interface, allowing multitrack recording to compatible computers and supported mobile workflows. This makes it useful for capturing live shows, rehearsals, podcasts, worship services, or full-band studio sessions while still providing low-latency monitoring and onboard processing.

The built-in tri-mode Wi-Fi router allows the mixer to be controlled from compatible iOS, Android, Mac, PC, and Linux devices using X AIR control apps. Engineers can walk the venue while adjusting front-of-house sound, musicians can adjust monitor mixes from the stage, and studio users can control sessions without needing a large physical mixer surface.

Onboard processing includes a 40-bit floating-point DSP engine, four stereo X32-style FX slots, channel and bus dynamics, EQ, and a 100-band real-time analyzer. With six aux buses, main LR outputs, ULTRANET connectivity, MIDI input/output, and multiple analog outputs, the Behringer X18 is a powerful solution for users who need portable digital mixing, multitrack recording, and remote control in one unit.
