Behringer Xenyx Q502USB Product Datasheet
One-Knob Compression
Ask professional sound engineers what their favorite piece of external processing gear is and the
majority response will be virtually unanimous – dynamic compression. What is compression?
We’re glad you asked. Compression essentially limits the dynamic range of a signal, lowering the level
of loud sounds and turning up softer sounds, to achieve sonic balance. But applying compression is a
delicate art that many novice, and even intermediate, sound techs fi nd challenging. Our “one-knob”
compression is available on all mono channels and is easy to operate, even for entry-level users.
With this one knob, you can easily dial in the perfect amount of compression for instruments
and vocals, creating powerful mixes with punch and clarity. This is indeed a rare feature for products
in this class – but standard on the XENYX Q502USB mixer.
