Can i control personals in ear monitor with our iphones with the mixer built in wifi without having the mixer connect the internet? (like mackie dl16)

Yes. I have this mixer and am very happy with it. I think the built in wifi is great for setup, and non-venue use (reharsals etc). The network established by the built in wifi is a local network, so no internet involved. There are 2 different apps to control xr18. X Air (for ios or android) will allow full control of the mixer from all connected phones/tablets. There's also X Air Q app that only allows control of inputs and levels to the aux busses, not changing the main mix. Performers get this app to do "more me" in their monitors without the ability to "accidentally" mute another performer. Now, if you're going to use this where there are other wifi, people with phones. dang near any public place, please buy a cheap wifi router. I bought a $10 Belkin at Ollie's closeout store and it's been fabulous. A good,, current model one will work even better. Many advantages: Stronger signal, ability to put router and antennas up high, use 5g instead of 2.4mhz (faster, fewer idiots with phones trying to connect to your mixer, etc), and you can keep a laptop wired to one of the other ports on the router for control that cannot fail due to wireless problems. In fact, go to your app store and get the Behringer apps. They have an "offline" simulation mode so you can try em out without having the mixer yet. And a boatload of youtube vids to teach you how to use it all.

Does the mixer have single-channel stereo inputs for keyboards and guitar processers?

The mixer is very flexible, it's all about how you program it. Each input is a mono input. Each input can send to one or both sides of a stereo "main" mix. It also has several monitor mix outputs. Each is independent of the main mix. You could configure into a surround sound system, each input can go to an independent different output. I found some tutorials on Youtube that were very helpful.

Will system be able to work if iPad is not present? For a church. At times the sound system simply needs to be turned on by the priest.

The XR will work without using an iPad, Adroid device, or computer, it will remain in the last configuration it was set, however, there won't be any control at all, therefore, the volumens, EQ and any other setting cannot me controlled.

Digital mixer, nice!

Purchased through Sweetwater on Amazon. The mixer works great for my 4 piece band as a mixer and usb recording interface. I can control it with my laptop or tablet. Had trouble getting ASIO drivers to load on my laptop. Sweetwater tech was able to get me up and running.

Best Unit for Price and Performance.

Even though this product is older when it comes to newer digital systems its still a solid sounding unit. Installed it into a church and connected it to a Access Point. Boom.. This thing is just great for its value. I will be ordering the 32 for another church just because of how solid this unit is.

A Lot for the Money

This mixer has a lot of features for the price. I am using Mixing Station app on an iPad. It’s a nice tidy package to transport.

Works like a dream!

It works like a dream! I bought it for a band of 4 musicians (bass, keys, drums and guitar) where each will have their own IEM for church services and any where we might play. It's very portable and works well with my windows computer to control and also use as a DAW. I love it!

Support stinks

I love the mixer. If you buy it, you had better be a self-starter. Behringer support is ridiculously bad. Thank God for YouTube videos. I'm teaching myself through trial and error.
