Behringer Xenyx QX602MP3 Mixing Desk

Compact 6-Input Analog Mixer with USB MP3 Playback

The Behringer Xenyx QX602MP3 is a 6-input, 2-bus analog mixer built for solo performers, small ensembles and presentation rooms. This compact unit combines two XENYX microphone preamps, two stereo line inputs and a built-in USB MP3 player into a 1.3 kg desktop chassis. In its price segment, the QX602MP3 delivers a feature set usually reserved for consoles twice its size.

Standout Features

A 24-bit stereo multi-FX processor layers reverb and delay onto any channel via the aux bus, while the British-style 3-band EQ borrows circuitry from 1960s consoles for warm, musical shaping. Switchable 48 V phantom power activates condenser microphones without an external supply, adding genuine studio flexibility.

Mic Preamps — Quiet and Spacious

Two onboard XENYX preamps deliver 130 dB of dynamic range and a bandwidth stretching from below 10 Hz to above 200 kHz, comfortably outpacing typical budget mixers.

• Mic Inputs: 2 XLR with switchable 48 V phantom power — accepts dynamic and condenser sources
• Dynamic Range: 130 dB — clean gain staging across vocals, ribbons and acoustic pickups
• Bandwidth stretches from below 10 Hz to above 200 kHz, capturing full sub-bass depth and the airy top end that condenser sources demand.

EQ, Routing and FX — Musical, Not Clinical

Vintage-toned shaping defines the 3-band British-style EQ, flattering vocals and electric guitar in equal measure. A single stereo aux send feeds the onboard multi-FX, and the stereo aux return doubles as two extra line inputs when FX is bypassed.

• Channel EQ: 3-band British-style traceable to the consoles that powered the British Invasion
• Aux Send: 1 stereo — per channel, available to internal FX or external effects
• Stereo aux return reassigns on demand, becoming two extra line-level inputs whenever onboard FX is bypassed.

USB Playback, Outputs and Form Factor

All key outputs sit on the top panel for fast mid-set access. Channel 5/6 accepts a phone or tablet through a 3.5 mm TRS jack, and the integrated MP3 player reads USB sticks via a 4-button pad with Random, Play/Pause, Rewind and Forward controls.

• Outputs: Main, Phones, Control Room — top-panel mounted for instant reach during a performance
• Plug-and-play track rotation runs from the 4-button pad with Random, Play/Pause, Rewind and Forward, so cues never need a laptop tether.
• Dimensions: 195 × 230 × 75 mm | Weight: 1.3 kg | Rackmountable: No
• Internal Effects: No — only the aux-fed 24-bit Reverb/Delay engine is on board, with no per-channel insert slot

Who Is It For

The Behringer Xenyx QX602MP3 is the right choice for solo performers, café and small-house-of-worship sound techs, mobile DJs, podcasters and music teachers who need quiet preamps, friendly EQ and no-fuss USB track playback. Two vocal mics with stereo backing material fit comfortably on its channel count, making it a strong match for home studios, classrooms, lectures and intimate live dates. At 1.3 kg, the QX602MP3 travels easily with acoustic duos and travelling presenters without weighing down luggage.

Behringer Heritage — The XENYX Line

Built around the XENYX preamp architecture praised for its 130 dB dynamic range, channel EQ borrows circuit topology from the 1960s British consoles known for warm vocal shaping.
