"Saved my meeting"

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
the routing is really the only thing this looses marks on but for me this is a big deal... if i can figure out a way around it it would be a 9.5-10
Sound
I had the mackie 1642vlz pro and i have to say it was noisey compared to this board. the head room is tremendous and this board saved me i was having touble in the middle of a week long meeting (church) i chucked the other stuff (virtualizer pro, composer pro, and the mackie) and replaced it with this board. i it sounded so much better. crisper sound the efx are just enough for me.
Features
Efx only can be routed to the main mix or the aux send not the subgroups... in my situation this is a big deal same with the 20-24 channels i run a recording system off subgroups 1-2 and video camera system off 3-4 , so to me channels 20-24 are no good to me and the effects are great but can't get to the recorded ( that i have found yet.)
Quality
SoFar So Good. feels soild the faders feel better than my mackie
Value
$450 any Questions

"You'll love this board. (Hopefully not literally)"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
For live situations, this board does all I need it to do. Not sure how it would be for recording yet.
Sound
I wasn't sure what to expect, but I've been using this board for a few months now live, and it sounds great through the Behringer B300 powered speakers. I've had no problems, it's extremely quiet, plenty of headroom, and the FX are great. I've thought about hooking it up in my studio...I may even get another one for the studio. I like the fact that the board is small and light, but covers all situations.
Features
It's nice that it has 2 FX units built in, and the EQ section is nice as well.
Quality
Nothing has fallen off yet (I wish I hadn't said that) and it's a cool looking board too.
Value
I think this is the best board you can get for this kind of money.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't had to deal with them.

"I'm happy with it."

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
starting an analog, DAW based studio? Don't 1000's for a yamaha or mackie or whatever? Behringer has your back. Its not pro, and it doesn't claim to be, but it get the job done with little cash, minimal hassle, and with the quality you would expect from any other middle class mixer.
Sound
sounds great. The "invisible pre's" add no color to your signal at all. The channel eq's are nothing spectacular, but the main eq has proven really especially useful when using more than one mic.
Features
This thing may be the most versatile mixer i've ever used; channel inserts, independant aux sends, two fx processors, and twice as many channels at half the price. But one problem that has been driving me crazy is that the control room out is only one headphone jack, and the neat built in talk to mic, is only send able to the aux sends. That means that i have to route the preformers headphones through aux 1/2, and turn the playback channels aux levels on and off repeatedly, and i had to get a goofy adapter for my monitors.
Ease of Use
my previous experience with behringer boards, made the learning curve dismal, but learning to use the first one was a bit more engulfing than i would have liked, and i can only assume this model would be worse for a beginner.
Quality
bought brand new. nothing wrong at all, and after about 5 months, nothing has gone wrong.
Value
its absurd what you get for your money. Just like every other thing behringer makes, its a steal at half the price. I was sure i was buying a piece of crap, but i couldn't resist the 24 channel goodness. Well, i certainly wont be returning it any time soon.
Manufacturer Support
I've only dealt with my dealer about this product.
The Wow Factor
I cant seem to resist more channels and more gear, so it was almost an impulse buy at the time, ( a sure test of desirability). Although, silver isn't really my color.
