6. Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues, try these basic troubleshooting steps before seeking professional assistance.

• Ingen lydoutput:
  • Kontrollér alle kabelforbindelser (indgange, udgange, strøm).
  • Ensure all level knobs (GAIN, MIC, LINE/USB, MAIN MIX, PHONES) are turned up.
  • Verify that your monitoring system (speakers, headphones) is powered on and functioning.
  • Check the signal routing switches (e.g., MAIN MIX to PHONES).
• Forvrænget lyd:
  • Reduce input GAIN to prevent the CLIP LED from illuminating consistently.
  • Lower the channel level or MAIN MIX level.
  • Kontroller for beskadigede kabler.
• USB Not Recognized by Computer:
  • Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the mixer and the computer.
  • Prøv en anden USB-port på din computer.
  • Install the latest drivers from the Behringer webwebsted.
  • Genstart din computer og mixeren.
• Problem med fantomstrøm:
  • Ensure the mixer is powered on. The XENYX 302USB's phantom power is always active on the MIC IN. If a condenser mic isn't working, check the mic and cable.
