Behringer XR16 Description

The Behringer XR16 X Air delivers powerful digital mixing capabilities in a portable, stage-friendly format. With 16 inputs including 8 Midas-designed programmable mic preamps and 8 line inputs, it provides clean, detailed audio suitable for live performances, rehearsals, and recording sessions.

Its integrated tri-mode WiFi router enables direct connection to tablets or computers for wireless control via iOS, Android, or desktop applications. This eliminates the need for additional networking equipment in many setups, while Ethernet connectivity remains available for more stable environments.

The mixer features a built-in USB recorder capable of capturing and playing back uncompressed stereo WAV files, making it ideal for simple recording tasks without requiring a DAW. Additionally, advanced DSP includes a 40-bit floating-point engine, four stereo effects processors from the X32 series, and a 100-band real-time analyzer for precise EQ control.

With flexible routing, six aux buses, and full dynamics processing on all channels, the XR16 is well-suited for small bands, houses of worship, and AV installations. Its rugged, compact design with included rack ears and protection bumpers ensures reliable use in both mobile and installed setups.
