3 dual-input stereo channels, one switchable to mic level with auto-talkover function. Gain, 3-band kill EQ.

Behringer's top-of-the-line VMX gives you 3 dual-input channels for connection of up to 6 stereo sources. Channel 1 features a built-in ULN mic preamp and an auto-talkover function for your mic; channels 2 and 3 are laid out for phono and line-level signals. Each channel sports a gain control, an extremely musical 3-band EQ with an amazing 32 dB of maximum attenuation, a PFL button with status LED, and an Ultraglide fader with a curve control switch, allowing you to choose between soft, mid, and sharp fader curves.

The VMX300's master section provides 2 separately controllable main out sections, talkover controls, and a flexible PFL section that allows you to mix and split your PFL signal as required. A dual 10-segment LED level meter displays main or PFL levels; below that, you'll find the controls for Behringer's knockout QRS surround circuitry. Add a reversible Ultraglide crossfader with freely adjustable curve and our beat counter with Tempo Difference and Time Offset displays plus Sync Lock and Beat Assist functions, and you've got one hell of a master section. But the best is yet to come: the front-panel 3-way kill switches with tap-and-hold action open the door to the most creative mixes you've ever spun. Like all of the VMX Series DJ mixers, the VMX300 is entirely based on Behringer's renowned ULN (Ultra Low-Noise) circuitry to ensure professional audio quality at all times. And our state-of-the-art VCA level engine is assurance that the Ultraglide faders and crossfader read more will operate with maximum precision and outlive most other faders on the DJ market.

Overall i love the product. Fits between my tables and samplers perfectly. Nice size and once again great faders.
Sound
I just wish it had balanced outputs.

I don't use the BPM counters but i really love the way the faders feel on this mixer. They have as good of a feel as any other mixer faders.
