so called experts always knock behringer, it's fashionable to do so cos it makes you sound like a pro, lol. If you make creative music u can get even major-label US album deals using cheap assed gear, i know cos i've done it. dont listen to these so-called 'pros' or you'll waste your prime creative years saving up for 'pro' gear. By the time you finaly get it you wont have anything left inside yourself to record, all the spark will be gone. Just do it and let the creativity flow :)

I am not pro on audio recording...but I deal with live stage setup and we had mackie mixer and that mixer was very annoying and noisy and it was not even 2 year old. We went and bought a Behringer eurodesk for less than $400 and it saved our day from being booed lol

Behringer make great active monitors and pretty decent desks and accessories. It's frustrating to see some stubborn engineers insist on various boutique brands at 10x the price when they could just ignore the names and buy unfashionable kit that works.

Is identical to Bogota Colombia some places XD

Gotta agree with you. I don't own any Behringer gear, but what I have used on occasion has worked well enough for about 95% of all the musicians in the world.

The Eurythmics recorded their first album on a very noisy 8 track analog tape machine. Didn't seem to lessen either its artistic or commercial impact, did it?

Go in stages. Get 'C' gear, make music while saving up, get 'B' gear, make more music while saving up, & THEN get 'A' gear when you actually have the experience to use it right

Sorry to say that dude, but you're an idiot! You posted four comments in a row commenting four times the same shit on how behringer rips off, produce in a third world (lol, almost everyone does!) or claiming its quality is shitty. Are you an employe of an competitor?

Quote by Uli Behringer: "In our history we have often been attacked by competitors, and this is understandable since we have dramatically decreased the price level."

Is this guy frikkin serious? I've got a news flash for you, ITS ALL MADE IN CHINA. Me thinks he has an axe to grind with Behringer. BTW, my mdx 1400 is still going strong after eight years.

- It isn't hard to sell gear cheaper and undercut your competitors when you're having it made in a Third World country instead of paying your fellow countrymen a decent living wage. It's also easier if you just rip off your competitors' ideas instead of paying someone to come up with original ones.

@AlphaJunoOne - Mackie and Allen & Heath have been forced to move part of their operations to China in order to compete with companies like Behringer, but at least these companies *care* about the products they're making, unlike Behringer, which mainly pushes out uninspired knockoffs at cut-rate prices.

[deadbirdsings]

It's no secret that Behringer rips off many of its products from its comptetitors. The latest example of this I've seen is their "Vintage Time Machine" delay pedal, which is a blatant ripoff of the Electro-Harmonix Memory Man.
