XENYX — Premium 16/24/32-Input
4-Bus Live Mixer with XENYX Mic
Preamps and British EQs
Ultra-low noise, high-headroom
analog mixer for live, front-of-house,
monitor, corporate and touring
audio applications
Introducing a bold new line of live
sound mixers that combine professional
features, dramatic styling and astounding
value. XL Series’intuitive layout and
color-coded control interface is
designed to make them easier to use.
We’ve added the features you’ve been
asking for and then some more. And of
course the XL3200, XL2400 and XL1600
are build around our proven XENYX
high-headroom, low noise mic preamps
and warm, musical EQ.
(which can also be used for 4 additional
mono mic channels), making it easy
to accommodate a wide variety of
live performance configurations.
Depending on which XL mixer you
choose, that means you can connect
up to 8, 16 or 24 microphones (or other
mono instruments) and up to four stereo
instruments (keyboards, for example).
You also get four buses, allowing you to
assign multiple channels—say all the mics
on a drum kit or all the backup singers’
mics—to a single fader.

The Ins and Outs
Best of all, you don’t need a black belt
in engineering to operate the XL series.
Some manufacturers can be sneaky
when they tell you how many inputs
their mixers have, counting features like
CD/TAPE IN as an input. But the XL series
really gives you 8 (XL1600), 16 (XL2400)
and 24 (XL3200) mono channels and
four stereo channels (with two ¼" inputs
apiece—an additional 8 line-level inputs
4 Subgroup outputs with inserts plus
2 independent main outputs with
inserts on Main A
To get started, assign all mics and
instruments to their channels by
connecting them to the corresponding
jacks on the back panel. Now, get ready
to quickly become acquainted with the
XL series’incredibly user-friendly design.

The back story
Each subgroup has its own
INSERT and OUT ¼" jacks. The inserts
allow you to connect noise gates,
compressors or equalizers, while the
OUT jacks send the subgroup signal to,
for example, a multi-track recorder.
The back panel of XL series mixers
features an intuitive patch bay that gives
you tons of flexibility in configuring a live
show. In the upper left corner you’ll find
the MAIN OUTPUTS section. There’s left
and right XLR outputs for connecting to
PA speakers, as well as dual ¼" inserts
for connecting a dynamics processor or
equalizer to further tweak the main signal.
There’s also dual OUT B jacks governed by
the MAIN B dial on front.
XENYX XL3200
XL2400/XL1600
Along the bottom of the back
The MAIN A section lies in the bottom right
section of the board. It gives you a channel
fader (light grey); a 13-LED master level meter
in the top right corner gives you a dynamic
visual gauge of overall output; a MUTE switch
(red) mutes all input channels except CD/TAPE
inputs; and a BAL control (black) adjusts the
mix of the left and right output signal before
they are routed through the MAIN A output.
Above, you’ll find the MAIN B section, which
governs the signal sent through the MAIN B
outputs on the back panel. Use the MAIN B
section and outputs to connect to a separate
power amplifier and multiple loudspeakers, or to
a stereo recording system.
panel, you’ll find the mono and stereo
channel inserts. Mono channels feature
both a ¼" and XLR input, as well as
an INSERT jack for applying outboard
equipment and a DIRECT OUT jack for
sending signal to a device such as a
multi-track recorder. Stereo channels feature
a single XLR input and dual ¼" inputs.
Next door to the MAIN OUTPUTS section
is the FX/MON/AUX SENDS section. The FX 1
and FX 2 ¼" outputs send signal to outboard
effects processors. MON 1 and MON 2 XLR
outputs send signal to monitors, and AUX
1 and AUX 2 XLR outputs can be used for
either effects processors or monitors.
Take On The World
Not every town on the planet uses
the same voltage common in yours.
Unfortunately, this sometimes doesn’t
occur to jet-setting sound technicians
until they’re 5,000 miles from home. With
the XL series mixers, this is never an issue.
The internal autorange power supply can
run on anything from 100 to 240 V with
noise-free audio, top-quality transient
response and low power consumption.
The next section to the right
contains the AUX RETURNS. Stereo AUX
inputs 1 & 2 allow you to connect
more effects processors or submixers,
while stereo FX 1 & 2 returns accept
processed signals sent from the FX 1 and
FX 2 outputs.
Talking back, listening up
The XL series features a Talkback section in
the upper right corner with its own XLR input,
LEVEL control (red), and switches that allow you
to send its signal to either the MON, AUX, GROUP
or MAIN outputs.
Left and right SPEAKER ¼" outputs
allow you to connect monitor speakers
that provide the same signal as the
headphone outputs.
Finally, a pair of headphone outputs at the top
of the board allows you to personally monitor
your mix, and a pair of BNC lamp outputs ensures
you’ll never have to mix in the dark.
