I just purchased the Behringer UBB1002 Eurorack. I have tested two
mics on the mixer/console. The mixer was then connected to my
computer sound card.
On two separate test with two different mic, I noticed that I had to
turn the volume/db pot up all the way to get a nice even sound. The
great thing was that there was no clipping, but I wondered why I had
to turn the sound up so much.
What were the meters on the console doing? If you had headphones plugged
into the console, were the levels reasonable in the phones? Do the mikes
need phantom power and was it on?
Before I got the mixer, I had an old radio shack mixer that I used to
use with the very same mics. There was never an issue with volume.
Even with the pots turned up to 4-5, it was plenty loud, but with the
Behringer it seems like I have to almost crank up the dB to hear it at
a normal level.
If it sounds good when the knobs are turned way up, turn the knobs way up
and don't worry. If it doesn't sound good, find out why.
Is this a problem with the Behringer or maybe a bad mixer?
I'm not sure it is a problem, but I would check levels at each stage along
the way, and I would suspect cables before anything else.

Isolating the exact cause of feedback can be difficult, but re-aligning the angle of wedge monitor to mic or FOH speaker to mic can sometimes help pinpoint the cause as the feedback will either stop or get worse. ...
