1.1 General mixing console functions
A mixing console fulfils three main functions:
sSigna processing: Preamplification, level adjustment,
mixing of effects, frequency equalization.
sSigna distribution: Summing of signals to the aux sends
for effects processing and monitor mix, distribution to one
or several recording tracks, power amp(s), control room
and 2-track outputs.
sMix: Setting the volume level, frequency distribution and
positioning of the individual signals in the stereo field, level
control of the total mix to match the recording devices/
crossover/power amplifier(s). All other mixer functions can
be included in this main function.
The interface of BEHRINGER mixing consoles is optimized for
these tasks enabling you to easily keep track of the signal path.
1.2 The users manual
The users manual is designed to give you both an overview of
the controls, as well as detailed information on how to use them.
In order to help you understand the links between the controls,
we have arranged them in groups according to their function.
The illustrations at the beginning of each chapter show the
controls described in each respective chapter.
+The b ock diagram supp ied with the mixing conso e
gives you an overview of the connections between
the inputs and outputs, as we as the associated
switches and contro s.
1. INTRODUCTION
FOREWORD
Dear Customer,
Im sure youre one of
those people who have
devoted themselves body
and soul to your chosen
area and no doubt this has
transformed you into an
expert in your field!
Well, for over 30 years,
my passion has been
music and electronics.
This not only led me to
establish BEHRINGER,
but also enabled me to
convey and share my
enthusiasm with my
employees.
During all the years Ive
been involved with
studio technology and
end users, I have developed a feel for the things that really
count, such as sound quality, reliability and ease of use. Whats
more, I have always had the desire to push the boundaries of
technical possibilities to the extreme.
It was precisely this motivation that prompted me to start work
on a new series of mixing consoles. Since our EURORACKs had
already set new standards world-wide, I knew the development
objectives behind the products bearing my initials had to be
especially ambitious.
Thus, the concept and design of the new UB mixing consoles
bear my signature. The design work, the entire circuit diagram
and PCB development, and even the mechanical concepts are
my own work. I carefully selected each individual component
with the aim of pushing the mixing consoles analog and digital
technologies to their limits.
My vision was to enable you, the user, to give free rein to your
true potential and creativity. The result is incredibly powerful mixing
consoles that offer intuitive operation. They cannot fail to impress
with their extremely flexible routing possibilities plus fantastic wealth
of functions. Innovative technologies, such as the completely new
IMP Invisible Mic Preamps, guarantee optimum sound quality.
And extraordinarily high-quality components provide unrivalled
reliability, even under extreme loads.
Your new UB mixing console is of high quality yet is simple to
use youll soon appreciate that I, both personally and in my
capacity as musician and sound engineer, put you, the end user,
first and that these products were only possible because of the
passion and the attention to detail that went into them.
Thank you for the confidence you have placed in us by
purchasing the UB mixing console. I should also like to thank all
those who, with their personal commitment and passion, have
helped me realize this impressive series of mixing consoles.
Kindest regards,
Uli Behringer

EURORACK UB502/UB802/UB1002/UB1202
For the moment, just try and trace the signal path from the
microphone input to the FX send connector. Dont be put off by
the huge range of possibilities its easier than you think! If you
look at the overview of the controls at the same time, youll be
able to quickly familiarize yourself with your mixing console and
youll soon be making the most of all its many possibilities.
If you need to know more about specific issues, please visit
our website at http://www.behringer.com, where youll find
explanations of (for example) effects and dynamics applications.

2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND
CONNECTORS
This chapter describes the various control elements of your
mixing console. All controls, switches and connectors will be
discussed in detail.
2.1 Mono channels
2.1.1 Microphone and line inputs
Fig. 2.1: Connectors and controls of mic/line inputs
MIC
Each mono input channel offers a balanced microphone input
via the XLR connector and also features a switchable +48V
phantom power supply for condenser microphones. Please note:
the EURORACK UB502 does not supply phantom power.
+P ease mute your p ayback system before you
activate the phantom power supp y to prevent
switch-on thumps being directed to your
oudspeakers. P ease a so note the instructions
in chapter 2.3.5 Phantom power and LED disp ays.
LINE IN
Each mono input also features a balanced line input on a 1/4"
connector. Unbalanced devices (mono jacks) can also be
connected to these inputs.
+P ease remember that you can on y use either the
microphone or the ine input of a channe at any
one time. You can never use both simu taneous y!
GAIN
Use the GAIN control to adjust the input gain. This control
should always be turned fully counterclockwise whenever you
connect or disconnect a signal source to one of the inputs.
2.1.2 Equalizer
All mono input channels include a 3-band equalizer, except for
the UB502, which is equipped with a 2-band EQ. All bands provide
boost or cut of up to 15 dB. In the central position, the equalizer
is inactive.
Fig. 2.2: The equali er of the mono input channels
EQ
The upper (HI) and the lower band (LO) are shelving filters
that increase or decrease all frequencies above or below their
cut-off frequency. The cut-off frequencies of the upper and
lower band are 12 kHz and 80Hz respectively. The mid band
(UB802/UB1002/UB1202) is configured as a peak filter with a
center frequency of 2.5 kHz.
LO CUT
In addition, the mono channels (UB1002 and UB1202) are
equipped with a steep LO CUT filter (slope at 18 dB/oct., -3 dB
at 75 Hz) designed to eliminate unwanted low-frequency signal
components.

EURORACK UB502/UB802/UB1002/UB1202
device will then have to be brought back into the console via a
normal stereo channel. This does, however, give you the ability
to use the channel EQ on the effects return signal if you wish.
+When using a stereo channe as effects return path,
the FX contro of the re evant channe shou d
genera y be turned fu y down to avoid undesirab e
feedback.
If only the left connector is used, the AUX RETURN automatically
operates in mono. Use the AUX RET(URN) control to determine
how much of the effects signal is sent to the main mix.
FX SEND
The FX SEND output (does not apply for UB502) should be
connected to the input of an external effects unit. The post-
fader FX signal you created using the input channel FX controls
is sent to the effects unit via the FX SEND ouput. Use the FX
SEND control of the main section to adjust the overall send level
(UB1002 and UB1202 only).
2.3.2 Monitor and main mix
Fig. 2.9: Monitor/main mix connectors
Fig. 2.10: Monitor control and main mix fader
PHONES/CONTROL ROOM
The stereo PHONES jack (at the top of the connector panel) is
where you connect headphones. The unbalanced CONTROL
ROOM OUT jacks carry the summed effects and main mix signals,
as well as soloed channel signals. The PHONES/CONTROL ROOM
control adjusts the level of both headphones and main monitor
outputs. The UB502 is not equipped with control room outputs.
MAIN MIX
The MAIN OUT connectors are unbalanced mono jacks. The
main mix signal appears here at a level of 0 dBu. The MAIN MIX
fader adjusts the volume of these outputs. The EURORACK UB802
and UB502 mixing consoles feature a rotary control for this purpose.
2.3.3 Tape connectors
TAPE INPUT
The TAPE INPUTs are used to bring an external signal source
(e.g. CD player, tape deck, etc.) into the console. They can also
be used as a standard stereo line input, so the output of a
second EURORACK or BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO MX882 can
be connected.
Fig. 2.11: Tape input/output
Alternatively the line or tape output of a hi-fi amplifier with
source selection switch could also be hooked up here, allowing
you to easily listen to additional sources.
TAPE OUTPUT
These connectors are wired in parallel with the MAIN OUT and
carry the main mix signal (unbalanced). Connect the TAPE
OUTPUT to the inputs of your recording device. The output level
is adjusted via the high-precision MAIN MIX fader or rotary
control (UB802).
2.3.4 Signal assignment

8
EURORACK UB502/UB802/UB1002/UB1202
+48 V (UB802/UB1002/UB1202 on y)
The red +48 V LED lights up when phantom power is on. The
PHANTOM switch activates the phantom power supply on the
XLR connectors of all mono channels.
+P ease do not connect microphones to the mixer
(or the stagebox/wa box) as ong as the phantom
power supp y is switched on. Connect the micro-
phones before you switch on the power supp y. In
addition, the monitor/PA oudspeakers shou d be
muted before you activate the phantom power
supp y. After switching on, wait approx. one minute
in order to a ow system stabi ization.
POWER
The blue POWER LED indicates that the console is powered on.
LEVEL INDICATOR
The high-precision 4-segment display accurately displays the
relevant signal level.
LEVEL SETTING:
To correctly set the gains of the channels, first set the LEVEL
controls of the input channels to their center positions (0 dB).
Then use the GAIN controls to increase the input amplification
until signal peaks show 0 dB on the level meter.
When recording to digital recorders, the recorders peak meter
should not go into overload. While analog recorders can be
overloaded to some extent, creating only a certain amount of distortion
(which is common and often desirable), digital recorders distort
quickly when overloaded. In addition, digital distortion is not only
undesirable, but also renders your recording completely useless.
+The peak meters of your EURORACK disp ay the eve
virtua y independent of frequency. A recording eve
of 0 dB is recommended for a signa types.
3. INSTALLATION
3.1 Mains connection
AC POWER IN
Connect the power supply to the 3-pin mains connector on the
rear of the console. Use the AC adapter supplied to connect the
console to the mains. The adapter complies with all applicable
safety standards.
+P ease use on y the power supp y unit provided
with the conso e.
+Never connect the EURORACK to the power supp y
unit whi e the atter is connected to the mains! First
connect the conso e to the power supp y unit, then
connect the power supp y unit to the mains.
+P ease note that both the power supp y unit and
the mixing conso e heat up considerab y during
operation. This is comp ete y norma .
3.2 udio connections
You will need a large number of cables for different
applications. The illustrations below show how the connectors
should be wired. Be sure to use only high-grade cables.
Please use commercial RCA cables to connect the 2-track
inputs and outputs.
You can, of course, also connect unbalanced devices to the
balanced inputs/outputs. To do this, use either mono plugs or
stereo plugs with the ring and sleeve bridged (pins 1 and 3 in the
case of XLR connectors).
+Caution! Never use unba anced XLR connectors
(PIN 1 and 3 connected) on the MIC input connectors
when using the phantom power supp y.
