Behringer K450FX PA Karaoke

I bought this item roughly about two years time and I made the right decision., this amp/mixer never failed me in times of need. I normally use this as PA system during parties like birthdays, during my wedding reception and other small-venue events. It is loud enough when use indoors and fairly decent even when use outdoors. This is a multi-purpose amplifier/mixer with built-in effects like chorus, flange, reverb, delay, etc. I have tried using a Yamaha PSR 350 and tried using the effects especially reverb and it sounds brilliant. Also have experimented with flange and chorus and still I was impressed, made a difference to the PSR350. Also the mic inputs are excellent, three ¼-inch input with 1 shared XLR, all with independent volume and effects control. There is a 5 band EQ with feedback detection button, 1 sub out, 1 line out, 1 RCA input for laptop/mp3 line in which I normally use during parties or for backing tracks.

This amp is also very good with acoustic guitar, however, not so convincing with electric guitars because I can’t help but compare it with Fender, Marshall, Peavey, Hohner practise amp amongst others that I’ve tried using and this Behringer K450FX is way below the line in terms of proper electric guitar amplifier sound. Also the other thing, this amp is a bit heavy, I am able to carry it but I can feel that there’s really weight in it which is on the other hand an indication that the speaker is of good quality. So, if you’re looking for a portable PA system which is multipurpose and got a lot of mic/line inputs and sounds decent with some expansions like Sub Out and Line Out. This one is definitely the answer. At the moment, I am using this one specifically for Karaoke with our Extreme Magic Sing.

My first recording experience

I went to Norwich, a couple days back with my band, Crossedwind, to record our original compositions. We've been exchanging on the net about ideas and backing tracks on our songs. We made use of our celphones, recording our raw materials... pretty rough record but we managed Then, I keep doing the backing tracks so that my bandmates can rehearse the song whilst Im away because I live here in Southampton. To cut the story short, we almost managed to practise and finalised our songs virtually. We have four songs to record, so I arrived in Norwich last May 22 at around 6 pm, went straight to Earth Studio to rehearse. It was like an overnight practise and then due for recording the following day. We struggled a little bit, because backing tracks was far from doing the real thing with my bandmates. There were changes made from intro, on how the adlib would sound, up to how we'll do the ending of the songs and so forth. Even after our rehe...

EnergyXT comes with a flashdrive

EnegyXT comes with a portable drive or what we call flash drive. In there are necessary files to run EnergyXT to any computer from a desktop or a laptop or a netbook as long as you got access to USB. The files that we need to copy are: clips presets projects samples temp\ energyXT2.exe energyXT.ini lame.exe libaam.dll xt.lck energyXT2 VST.dll energyXT.ini And paste these files in the program files with your folder EnergyXT then create a desktop shortcut or copy the shortcut onto your desktop. The more you update your EnergyXT the more files will be included like rexloader, etc. You can now hop from one computer to another always make sure to keep your flashdrive safe and secure. This is what Im doing now, from Dell Inspiron to Sony Vaio to my wife's HP mini. Really portable and handy.
