I am going to be getting the x1204usb that has the effects processor built in although I liked the external processor. I believe that I can use an external effects processor with the new mixer as well but don't have the money to add that to my shopping list.

If you plan on using AUX SEND and RETURNS for external effects, the x1204usb does indeed have those, but it does not have INSERTS. One model up, the x1832usb comes with INSERTS as well, and more nifty things that the 1240 doesn't have, along with the one knob compresors.

I've owned 4 Behringer mixers and used to run a 5th one when I did sound for a band, and they all performed flawlessly and lasted/are lasting through years of constant use. Currently have an x1832usb at each of my two bars, and take one on the road for any private parties. The internal effects for the Xenyx series are very good, so much so you probably won't need to bother with an external.

I know, I know, Behingers get a lot of bad reviews. What can I say? Am I just lucky to have had and used so many without a single problem for 20 years? I'd recommend them to anyone.

He lives in an alternate world made up of alternative facts where what may seem logical to me and you is seen differently through Danny's eyes. Many of us, including the scholars on this forum have tried to figure it out but have failed. No one can really get a handle on his behavior. Because of this, he has frustrated many people who have offered to help. But in his world, life is good. We will never understand the things that Danny does or why he does them. And at this point, it's not even worth trying.

No I live in a what can I afford mentality. I purchased several items this month including 2 sliding shelves and I was not about to buy the overpriced poorly designed one that all the music stores sell. Whomever designed it forgot to tak into account the fact that everytime you pushed the shelf back into the rack, the cables get caught between the shelf and the back rail. The ones that I bought do not have a back rail for the cords to get caught up in and I was able to get 2 for less than the price of the SKB.

I think that I am leaning towards just accepting the onboard effects rather than an external effects processor. If I can get the onboard effects to give me close to the quality of the Lexicon's delay+reverb I'll be happy.

All I know that it doesn't have the flaw that the SKB VS-1 does. Yeah it is harder to install but at least I don't have to worry about the cables getting caught up in the back rail.
