BEHRINGER SOFTWARE DJ UNIT

[slavestudios]

for the pro people who make a living out of music & release regular, Mr Drummer, Behringer simple isnt up to it..

but for those of us strugglin to pay reant AND build a studio, Behringer is a wonderful way to access the world of hardware.





some of the snobbery over their products is simple embarassing.. i'd love to have had 8 u of Drawmer as opposed to behringer, but i just couldnt afford it. and they never failed me. EVER

who says i'm not struggling to pay the rent too

they're still crap though

how many months behind are ya ? ;)

Fair enough, but i will not be recomending them to anyone! Dont get me wrong, i have had a couple of basic mixers (anyone remember the yellow synergy one with no eq just kills?) and it was ok, granted basic but ok build wise. I also had a numark dm2002 which again served its purpose without any complaints from me. The behringer is just so i can listen to my records on as mixing on it is both annoying and near impossible, grabbing the pioneer back when i get back from sonar

[Jimfish]

some ppl simply dont have the money to spend over £500 on a lil mixer for their bedroom..

Behringer isnt aimed at pro's. its entry level stuff. anyone expecting anything else is being foolish..

The trick is to avoid the behringer shite, and look into somthing second hand, some pretty old gear or if you research a bit then gear that was overlooked due to bad marketing or whatever can be a proper bargain.

Behringer stuff would be amazing if it actually worked.

[Jimfish]

saying that, i have got a behringer mixer.. and its cack of the highest order. Its the kind of stuff they give away in happy meals or crackers.

That control surface looks sweet, trouble is (based on passed experiences with most of behringers gear) i have no faith whatsoever that it will do its job.

[Jimfish]

and im not snobbing out, im not like that at i can assure you.. Ive learned it the hard way that behringer is a pile of toss ;)

[eyes without a face]

the bad press alone that behringer get puts me off entirely, i wouldnt touch anything by them.... everyones skint pete mate but it doesnt stop others just saving and saving, even if it means waiting as much as a year, 2 years to get the kit... or good, decent 2nd hand gear is another option as Jim said...

the behringer gear ive used sounded so cheap and nasty, id much rather use high end software over low end hardware like Behringer anyday i must say

[slavestudios]

:roll:

[RDR]

The trouble is...

I cant fully for sure say that EVERY piece of Behringer stuff is shit, its a fair guess to say that. But they produce so much stuff that i cant imagine that all of it is useless. At least they give people the opp. to own a piece of hardware.

just a thought.

who knows.. might good, might be fanny batter :lol:



as for vinyl... its day are numbered kidz... get of the boat before it goes down eh ;)

Actually it is CD's that are going down......
They have developed a new CD format that uses a blue laser instead of a red one so that the tracks on the CD can be thinner and you can make a longer CD.........
If your vinyl was sent out into space an alien could play it with a pin and would eventually invent a record deck.....
Not so with CD's......
Also technics decks are obviously an alien invention otherwise why did they have a pitch control on them over a decade before acid house made everyone want to beat match?????

u say it sounds shit, which i do agree with, but wot about the midi controllers they brought out?? they aint that bad for the money and midi doesnt affect the quality of the sound like a bad mixer etc. does.

My experience with Behringer equipment hasn’t been positive to the slightest

I had a dj mixer and it was so badly designed that when you released the kill switches they locked into kill lock. The studio mixers sound cold, my mate has one and he hates it. Says it’s the biggest waste of money he has ever bought and after playing around with the EQ I can see why. I wouldn’t even bother with any of there hardware effect units and compressors as waves plugins sound better

Behringer = Cold

[Adverse]

behringer are crap and always will be

agreed.

[SlavikSvensk]

cheaply-made stuff that is designed to look like less-cheaply made stuff...

[slavestudios]

lol

[slavestudios]

bear in mind this a controller in one aspect.. not a processor.

yee of little faith lol
