BEHRINGER STUDIO XL CONTROLLER

The Behringer STUDIO XL Studio Control Centre is packed together with a comprehensive monitor controller with a premium audio interface in one unit, designed for professional and home musicians to record, playback and control your recording system. Jam-packed with features and functions, the STUDIO XL features two premium-quality Midas microphone preamps to record in immaculate quality thanks to the 192kHz sampling rate with ultra-high headroom and near-zero noise floor, as well as two headphone sockets for discrete monitoring and three pairs of studio monitor outputs to connect up to three pairs for quick referencing when mixing and mastering your music.

Designed to integrate seamlessly into any studio environment, the STUDIO XL provides you with a multitude of different connection options including three source inputs with an auxiliary input to playback tracks for recording or referencing as well as the unique talkback function. The STUDIO XL lets you communicate directly with your live room with the integrated microphone or by plugging in an XLR to the dedicated input for an elegant solution for chatting to musicians or engineers to get the best sound and performance from that take. Not only that, but it's foot-switchable to quickly easily engage the microphone.

Expertly designed, the STUDIO XL utilises a premium VCA control for extremely precise and accurate volume changes with your monitoring to give you more control than ever. Additional convenient switching tools are given at your fingertips such as Dim, Mute and Mono to give you more flexible control over your monitoring.

Comprehensive connectivity

A generous amount of inputs and outputs allows the STUDIO XL to integrate seamlessly into your existing setup to become the centrepiece of your studio. Instantly switch between audio sources, USB signals and monitor outputs. Coming included with two microphone preamps, a pair of headphone outputs with individual volume controls, a pair of stereo 3.5mm source inputs as well as a stereo auxiliary input. Whether you're connecting a pair of your favourite condenser XLR microphones, three sets of studio monitors, backing tracks for playback through your phone or tablet device, STUDIO XL gives you all the connectivity to keep up and running in your sessions.

As well as a host of connectivity options, the STUDIO XL gives you a unique and functional feature - the talkback microphone. Making it the ideal solution for professional recording environments with separated control rooms and recording rooms, you can now instantly communicate to your performers in the live room, or your engineers to give immediate feedback to get the best sound and take for your mixes. Save precious recording time and microphone channels and eliminate any constant back-and-forward between your control and live rooms with the STUDIO XL.

Legendary Midas preamps

One of the worlds leading brands in the world of audio production, the onboard Midas preamps give you access to pro sound instantly. Two state-of-the-art preamps are engineered to perfection to provide you with ultra-low noise and high-headroom performance to allow you to record any instrument or voice in immaculate quality without distortion. Any instrument that contains a wide dynamic range for emotive performances can be captured with ease with the STUDIO XL, thanks to a staggering >90dB signal-to-noise ratio, whether you're recording a subtle violin solo piece or a dynamic vocal recording, no detail will be left out. Ideal as part of a home recording solution for amateurs or professionals, the STUDIO XL gives you the tools to face any recording challenge and still produce world-class results, with +48V Phantom Power for both microphone preamps, you're not limited to which microphones you can use to capture your performance.

Crystal clear quality

More than just a reductive monitor controller, the STUDIO XL is an all-encompassing studio solution with best-in-class components that gives you one of the best USB interfaces available to date. Capturing the most complex harmonics with no distortion thanks to the high headroom and 192kHz sampling rate at 24-bit, every nuance of your performance will come through loud and clear with a crisp and articulate sound.

Powerful VCA - more than a volume dial

Utilising a high-end voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA), the STUDIO XL allows for extremely precise volume changes. Where conventional volume dials pass the signal through a potentiometer, the STUDIO XL controls a separate high-precision amplifier circuit for immaculate phase coherency and detailed volume controls. A large dial allows you to make small, incremental changes to control your sound easily and get the perfect level for mixing and mastering your tracks.

More monitoring options

When it comes time for the final mixdown, it's vital that you hear how your mix sounds through a number of different systems to ensure your mix will translate between different sets and types of speakers. STUDIO XL gives you three sets of monitor outputs to connect up to two pairs through one unit with a dedicated switch to A/B/C between them instantly, with individual volume dials to get a perfect balance. This will allow you to hear any subtle differences between two sets of speakers and will allow you to make adjustments to get your mix sounding professional and polished on as many unique systems as possible.

Further playback switches are included to make sure you have complete control over your monitoring directly at your fingertips with no complicated menus to dive through. Mono, Mute and Dim switches are all available on the face of the unit to help you listen at different volumes quickly and easily without disturbing your VCA volume dial as well as to monitor how your mix may sound through a mono speaker source such as a mobile phone or tablet device.
