I have a good few mates who work for the BBC. One of them went to do a bit of repair work in a transmission centre in Norwich. He was surprised to see four Behringer limiters in the broadcast chain.

NO LIE.

I really hope my arriving pedals will be nice, I even got a replacement tube for the pedal, cause few said the one in it was too noisy for the low voltages.. but I hope all will be fine.. It has I dont know what tube, and I got sovtek 12ax7 eh tube, I hope it will be better.. and the people on some "review' sites said, that it hasnt got and led, its just glowing very lightly... (cause of the limited voltage)

That's because they make good cost effective product.

Yeah, but we've used the same stuff in our radio broadcast chain and results were not length.

The results were not "length"?

I don't know. My grasp of the English language and capability to type words has got pretty bad recently.

It's all that money they're paying you.

Oh wait...

I assumed it was some new Glaswegian term, probably from those who equate "length" with "quality"

read the manual.

Eh. Reading the manual doesn stop things losing power or suddenly not doing anything. We had a Behringer headphone distro that lasted two weeks as well.

yikes. sounds like you had a bunk unit.

i have had a bunch of behringer stuff (my first proper speaker cab was a behringer bg412h 4x12. heavy as sin but had jensen speakers and sounded really good) and i have always had good luck with them. i even have some behringer studio headphones that i use at home for recording stuff. those are rad too.

i guess what im saying is every company is gonna have screwups no matter who they are, and behringer gets lots of flak for reverse engineering or copying circuits, but when it comes down to it they are a legit company with good products.

When did I say anything actually bad about Behringer. What I said was I was suprised, as was my friend, that the BBC would use Behringer in the broadcast chain for their local TV ouput. Rather than perhaps something industry standard like Alice.

you're a dirty behringer nazi and you know it euan! any opportunity and he's bashing the behr!

Totally. I hate using my Behringer distortion, delay and DI.

What did you do to J. Ross? I missed it tonight because I was pretending to be social.

This forum is disappointing me.

Behringer is shit.

They make some good stuff. But obviously their quality control and overall durability leaves something to be desired.

Anyone using them is cheaping out. They're not superior to anything in any way.

I cant wait until I discontinue the Great Destroyer adn then behringer will come out with "The real messer-upper!"
