BEHRINGER
UB SERIES
Ultra Low-Noise Eurorack Mixers
By continuously responding to the suggestions of their customers, Behringer has developed a range of mixers that offer more bang
for the buck without compromising on audio quality. Built to exacting standards, they are rugged and reliable, and offer the flex-
ibility and sonic integrity demanded by the most discerning end users. Ultra-low noise circuitry and transparent audio, balanced
mic/line inputs, invisible mic preamps, solid steel chassis, sealed potentiometers make the UB Series Euroracks ready for broad-
cast production as well as MIDI rigs, home/project studios, video editing suites, and live sound reinforcement. And with ten mix-
ers in the line, there is sure one to meet your requirements.
With the UB Series, Behringer takes mixing to the next level. From the miniscule UB502 to the largest UB2442FX-PRO, all mix-
ers combine the same high-quality components and innovative features with affordable pricing. They all feature premium IMPs
(“Invisible” Mic Preamps) and ULN (Ultra Low-Noise) circuitry design, and with a feature set of impact-resistant pots and first-
rate faders from ALPS, and low-tolerance components, the UB Series provide uncompromising quality under their sleek and
sturdy roadproof skin. In addition, the PRO models feature an internal autorange (80-240v) switch-mode power supply and all
FX PRO models feature award-winning 24-bit digital and 24-bit/46 kHz internal processing Virtualizer technology with 99
breathtaking stereo effects.
The state-of-the-art, studio-grade IMPs provide 130 dB dynamic range for 24-bit, 192 kHz sampling rate inputs, ultra-wide
60dB gain range and +30dBu line input capacity for crystal-clear audio and ample headroom. With their extreme bandwidth
and amazingly neutral, noise- and distortion-free circuitry, the mic preamps deliver crystal-clear audio for awesome sound with-
out any coloration. ULN low impedance circuitry design coupled with high-quality 4580 op amps provides maximum headroom,
minimal noise and stunningly transparent audio.

Invisible Mic Preamp (IMP)
◆ Five years in the making, the Invisible Mic
Preamp (IMP) is a superior mic preamp that
delivers crystal-clear audio with incredible
reproduction of the slightest nuances. It
matches or exceeds the performance of out-
board mic preamps.You get extreme band-
width of 5Hz to 100kHz coupled to unusually
neutral, noise- and distortion-free circuitry.
Ultra Low-Noise (ULN)
◆ ULN stands for the Ultra low-noise design of
their circuitry. It is based on extremely low-
impedance components that keep
thermal inherent noise and crosstalk at an
absolute minimum.The result: your console is
considerably less noisy and crosstalk between
neighboring channels is virtually non-existent.
Switch-Mode Power Supply
(SMPS)
◆ All PRO series mixers (UB1204-PRO and up)
use a state-of-the-art, over-sized, switch-mode
power supply with lots of headroom. The
advantage, compared to conventional circuits,
is that a switch-mode power supply automati-
cally adapts to AC voltages between 100 and
240 volts.Furthermore, due to its much
greater efficiency, it consumes much less ener-
gy than a conventional supply unit.
◆ Even more important is the fact that
conventional transformers always induce
50 Hz hum (check it out on other mixers
when you turn up all volume controls).
Behringer’s switch-mode supply operates at
very high frequency and therefore keeps the
mixer “dead” quiet.
High-Quality Construction
◆ High quality ALPS sealed rotary controls and
faders keep out dust and moisture to ensure
long lasting, reliable performance. Steel chassis
and horizontally mounted fiberglass circuit
boards are used for their ruggedness,whether
on the road or bouncing from studio to studio.
24-bit / 46kHz
◆ Digital recordings done at 16-bit depths break
up the dynamic range between the loudest
and quietest portions of a signal
into 65,536 steps.Behringer uses 24-bit
resolution (dividing the signals’dynamic
range into 16,777,216 steps) allowing for far
more accurate rendering of the quieter parts
of the audio.
◆ Audio signals change constantly, so a digital
device must capture these changes as faithfully
as possible. The higher the sampling rate,the
better. UB Series mixers use a sam
pling rate of
46kHz (46,000 times per second).
Since the
sampling rate should be twice that frequency,
46 kHz is more than adequate for capturing
all signals in the audible range—the human
ear can not hear sounds whose frequency is
higher than 20 kHz.
