Going mobile with the Behringer Xenyx 1003B
The Behringer Xenyx 1003B is a new compact analogue desktop mixer that offers versatility for a wide range of recording or live sound applications.
So whether you need a solution for podcasting, content creation, studio, or live music, the 1003B provides the necessary tools to take on whichever task you need it for.

From the left, the Xenyx 1003B offers 2 mono mic/line channels with insert points, 3-band EQ, and both monitor and effects sends. Channels 3-8 are mono/stereo combo channels, providing mono mic or stereo line operation, which is handy.
In addition, channels 9 and 10 provide a stereo line input that you might use as an effects return track. There are RCA outs for both record and stream and LED metering on the master fader.
What’s more, the 1003B can operate using 9V batteries, making it even more versatile as a sound reinforcement or recording tool. Even without this feature though, it’s still impressive for such a compact mixer.
The layout is logical and intuitive, and the inclusion of insert points and multiple sends is fantastic for a mixer at this end of the market and for its size.
It can be used in your rehearsal space or on stage, for any style of music, as well as in studio, for recording, podcasting, or content creation, and the ability to connect external effects or create a monitor mix is certainly welcome.

The XENYX 1003B will be available from your favourite retailer soon, at a price of $129 MSRP.

One response to “Going mobile with the Behringer Xenyx 1003B”
I just don’t understand this obsession with small mixers to force summing to mono on FX/Aux outputs.
Stereo fx processors are not elusive, magical creatures. They do exist and it’s quite nice to have the option to preserve your stereo imaging when using said effects.
