I recently purchased a Behringer 1202FX mixer. I plugged several
different computer microphones into the XLR jack on channel one, but
none of them work. I hear nothing, but I do hear the line-in inputs.
What type of microphone do I need for a mixer like this. I am only
interested in using i
Hi,
They're probably not connected right in the xlr plug.
There are microphones that needs phantom power wich probably can be turned on
with a button on the mixer.

There is a phantom power button on the front right, but my microphones
do not work either with or without the phantom power, so phantom power
is not the issue.

They are connected properly, because they snap in securely. Phantom
power is not the issue, because they do not work even with phantom power on.

Good morning Rich, I hope I don't get too technical. Low-cost computer
microphones are an economical breed of condenser microphone. As opposed to
the dynamic microphone, which works on moving a coil in a magnetic field,
the condenser microphone requires some voltage between vibrating elements so
Rich,
I also have a Behringer mixer so I am familiar with the mixer controls. I have
Rode, MXL and $20 Dick Smith microphones with XLR connectors that work well
with the Behringer. It is possible that the mixer has a faulty circuit. In
that case, I hope you have the original packaging and c
Hi Robert, thanks for your thorough response. I have now tested several
microphones that I have had for some time, just to see if any worked. I
tested one computer headset, one computer microphone, and one older

The fact that you were using a 3.5 mm to XLR adapter suggests that there is
some difference in the way that the tip, ring and sleeve on the 3.5 mm jack are
wired up. With the one that you could hear, the white noise would indicate
that the microphone is not producing sufficient gain for
