Hi, there is nothing on the pot no value or anything, sides are empty too. It must be some garbage pot.

These are super cheap components, it's not worth your time to mess about with them. For reliability just replace them with better quality same value pots that fit... 🙂Leave a comment:

Hi, there is no spillage whatsoever. Mixer is well serviced by me and there was just problem with faders which I spray with deoxIT and they are fine now, but I wanted to lube pots too and then I spray them too, and after I spray them, few of them are not moving as they used to. Some of them are ok, but some are moving like they need to be replaced. I already order 6 of them to replace. I mean mixer is 12 years old, not all pots are in daily use but some are, those that are not in use are making problems, and I tend to move them weekly just in case...maybe they just need some lubricating but not by spray with some grease. I have PTFE grease, but I would need to desolder them If I get you correctly ?
Btw
Pot for headphone is not closing the channel good on 0 I can still hear music like it's on 1, but only on one channel. I tried to clean that pot, but still same, any suggestion for that ?Leave a comment:

you gotta clean the shaft as well, not only the bottom. I would take it out and stick it in a ultrasonic cleaner with hot water a little bit of IPA and Dawn dish soap. Dont forget to work the pot and flush out all the old crap. This mixture cleans sugar up like nothing. Dry it with 99% IPA then relube the bottom with Deoxit and the shaft with some thick oil that has PTFE properties.
I am guessing there may be some spillage inside the shaft as it usually is with mixers. I only swap out pots if they are beyond repair physically damaged.
Problem is I don't know if it is spilled sugary drink or hardened up old grease.Leave a comment:

Behringer xenyx x1204usb mixer
Hi, I have few questions
1. few of my pots on mixer are turning so hard, I tried to clean them and spray some DeoxIT Fader spray in it, but it didn't help. Is there any way to put some grease inside that pots whole that is on the side instead of spraing in it ?
2. Or is it just simpler to replace them all with same ones ? I am not into pots, so am I able to put some better quality ones or it needs to be same one as they were default ?Attached Files -

Hi, I got Behringer Xenyx 1204USB mixer, and in the morning mixer was working fine, but when I came home from bike ride I turn it On but nothing happend. Phantom switch is working because red light is On, but other switch no respond.
I brought mixer to my friend today who is electronic expert and he will tell me if it's the button or something on power supply that died. But I am 90% sure that it's power button. My question is, is it possible to put some better quality switches on that mixer than the ones mixer came with, I found them very cheap and low quality. -
Hi guys
I have this faulty mixer here. Basically the owner says it worked fine at one gig, then the next one it didn't
When I power on, both the L & R LED Meters go to +4 and stay there. This is without any input and with all sliders Level Set knobs set to zero
Also the LED meter on the 24-bit dual engine DSP goes to red (clip)
I didn't connect an speakers but if I use headphones I can hear what I can best describe as a purring noise on both channels
I found a schematic for the PSU There is a 10 way ribbon cable going from the PA/PSU... -
Hello dear audio friends.
I am feverishly looking for the full electronic schematic (not a block diagram) of the RCF type M18 digital audio mixer.
The device does not make a WIFI connection with my Apple tablet and yet I have already installed the recent app on it.
I suspect that there is a problem in the mixer itself with the WIFI card and of course I would like to see this on an extensive schedule before opening the device.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help me with this schematic.
Of course, all information about this digital mixer and possibly references...07-24-2023, 06:40 AM -
I am planning to buy myself a new mixer. Yamaha MG12U or XU(not sure) and I always like to take a look inside of mixer to check how it looks, if caps are low quality and other stuff.
I manage to find some teardown video on youtube but video name is saying MG12XU, but when you look at video on mixer it's MG12U.
And when I google those two models they have different PSUs one have cheap low quality caps, and other is way better with quality ones Nichicon. So I am confused now from what model exactly is that better PSU??
I google a little and found that there is this part number... -
Hello all.
My first proper post to badcaps forum so just wanted to say a big thank you for all the information I've learned already from lurking and reading old threads.
Signing up to the forum took a little longer than I'd expect so I've now fixed the initial problem I was having (and introduced a new one) but thought it would be good to document here and see if anyone has any ideas on the new problem.
The initial problem was that when the mixer was turned on from cold, there would be a ticking from the power supply area and the mixer would continually...
