The VMX1000USB, VMX300USB and 

VMX200USB all feature BEHRINGER’s 
awesome XPQ stereo surround effect will 
give your mix an unmistakable finishing 
touch. These three models also give you 
a 3-band kill EQ, Gain control and precise 
level meter per channel. The VMX1000USB 
additionally has an EQ on/off switch on 
stereo channels. There is also a monitor 
function with PFL/main balance control 
& split option and auto-talkover function 
with separate depth and sensitivity 
control. Meanwhile, the VMX100USB 
features the most simplified controls, 
with a 2-band EQ and level meter for 
MAIN output.

For the DJ in need of mammoth bass, 

the VMX1000USB features a subwoofer 
output with adjustable x-over frequency 
and level control, perfect for putting some 
extra punch to your dance numbers. 
And you will never run out of connectivity 
options with the balanced MAIN and 
additional zone OUTPUTS.

The built-in beat counter is an 

extremely useful feature, allowing smooth 
crossfades between two tracks—an 
important key to the success of your 
performance. The beat counter analyzes 
and displays the tempi of your tracks in 
BPM (Beats Per Minute). The beat counter 
sections of channels 1 and 2 are identical, 
with the tempo of each track shown in 
the respective channel’s display.

In the case of multiple tempo changes, 

the beat counter would normally change 
continuously, causing confusion and 
rendering the function virtually useless. 
But thanks to VMX’s SYNC LOCK button, 
you can limit the range of possible tempo 
values within a given song. Pressing this 
button once allows the counter to lock 
onto and display a more realistic value. 
Additionally, the BEAT ASSIST button 
allows you to set the beat counter’s 
tempo manually, similar to “tap tempo” 
function. Pressing the button three 
times in time with the track will set 
the beat counter and its display at the 
desired tempo. 

The BEAT ASSIST and SYNC LOCK 

buttons are each equipped with an LED 
that shows which function is activated. 
Once the tempo of the two tracks has 
been determined and locked with the 
SYNC LOCK or BEAT ASSIST buttons, 
the tempo difference between the 
two crossfader-assigned sources is 
displayed via the 9-segment TEMPO 
DIFFERENCE LED display (not available on 
VMX1000USB). When the center LED is lit, 
the tracks are in perfectly in sync; when 
the display moves to the left or right, the 
corresponding channel is running out 
of sync. It just doesn’t get much easier 
than this!

When you hook up with a VMX mixer 

with USB connectivity, you’re adding the 
ultimate modern touches to your rig at 
a price that will leave you with cash to 
spare. Their superior build quality and 
rugged components mean these mixers 
will serve you well for years to come.
