I think the ultramizer and I will be working together for a long time. If stolen I would most like purchase a new one.
Sound
I was shocked when I heard my recordings play back. I had this machine connected to my behringer mixer and let me tell you. For the prices behringer sales their products for is unheard of for this kind of quality. I used to use Sonar 6 producers edition with the usb sonar power 250 wich retails for at least $700. I no longer have use for it now thanks to behringer products. With just the mixer,ultramizer,and sonar recording software my home studio sounds like a $100,000 studio.
Features
So far as features go I only tried one function so far and that was the ultramize button set to about +32db and I was happy with that. I will try different setting though.
Ease of Use
It was too easy. Once you have all the ins and outs going to and from what ever device your trying to enhance all the rest is common sense.
Quality
This device shouldn't be hard to transport at all it's light weight and very strong and sturdy. If you take real good care of it I see a lifetime life span on this thing.
Value
This product does way more than it's worth.
Manufacturer Support
No problems so far.
The Wow Factor
I love the look of it. Being that I have a behringer mixer it matches perfect in my studio.

Behringer DSP1424P Customer Review
Features
Stereo Widener: makes your music sound excellent. Can set it from "0" (no widening) to "100" (extreme widening)
2 Band Compressor: Bit overkill and can cause "pumping" but you can turn it down, sounds good when just a little compression is applied
Hard Limiter: Works perfectly, no pumping. Your audio will never ever exceed the level you set it at.
Exciter / Low Frew Booster: Can set the frequency you want to extend and how much by, very useful to achieve a mid-cut effect
Quality
Looks solid and the resolution of the display and LED's is very attractive & bright

I've checked out other products prior to purchasing this one. Many of the other Manufacturers units are good and are of high quality. However, many of the other units seemed a bit pricey for what they had to offer. If something happended to this Product, i.e. lost, stolen, or just plain old and too tired to work anymore, I would have no problem with purchasing another one as a replacement. I like this Product!
Sound
I had absolutely no idea how much drive this little unit would have on my studio monitors! I had to lower all of my Mixer,Stereo Buss,and Monitor Contol levels on my Recorder to keep from blowing the Speaker Cones off of their Frames! All of the Features on the Ulramizer Pro were well above my expectations and it will be a part of my mastering operations.
Features
I tested all of the on board features and each of them performed very well. I was especially impressed with the 3-D Surround Stereo Width Control as it gave my mellower tunes a very warm and spacious sound.
Ease of Use
The Ultramizer Pro has has some pretty sweet sounding Factory preset modes and it is easy to experiment with making my own adjustments with just the push of a Button and rotation of the Jog Wheel! The Instruction Manual is easy to read and understand and it allows you to start operating almost immediately while minimizing the learning curve that i've experienced with some of my other Devices.
Quality
This Product in my opinion is of sound construction. All of the Parts fit well and they have a tight solid feel while maintainig ease of operation. I would take this unit anywhere and use it with confidence!
Value
Dollar for Dollar,the seemless perfomance of the Ultramizer Pro far exeeds its selling price!
Manufacturer Support
My unit is only a couple of months old and so far it has not given me any trouble. I hope that in the future if service or repair becomes an issue,Behringer would be just as efficient with Customer service as it is with making a great product.
The Wow Factor
If the Ultramizer Pro was a Woman, I would want to take her out again and again! It's a great addition to my Home Studio because it has the ability to sweeten up my music, make it fatter, and enhance loudness through my monitors without jacking up the levels on the Channel Strips and as I've said before, it will be a major Tool in my mastering operations!
