"I love it. You don't have to be a professional DJ to use it."
Feature:
For about $ 200 it has lots of features. No other company ofers so many channels and programs in a small box and so affordable.
Quality:
No problems at all. It is built well, and looks very nice.
People complain about the battery, but more than two years have past and the battery is still good. I had to replace the 5 pin DMX connector with one that has 3 pins, and now I connect it to the dimmer packs with microphone cable.
Value:
Yes, I think it does all I want it to do and has features that others did not offer for same price.
Desirability:
People that came and looked at it were impressed. It looks great.
Most of them think it costs a lot more than what I paid.
Sound:
It is a light controller, but it uses the audio line out from the mixer to sync the lights to the music. Im am not quite 100 % happy about how it follows the beat. Sometimes I have to manually jump through the steps of a chase. It does not put any noise in the sound system.
Ease of Use:
Now that I play with it a lot it is very easy, but in the beginning I had a hard time learning, because the book is very bad. I gave up trying to use the book and discovered how to program it on my own.
They really need to rewrite the manual. I would have loved to see a video on how to program and use it, but Behringer does not offer one.
Support:
I sent a few emails asking for more info on how to program the chases but they never answered back.
The book is bad, needs to be rewriten by an English or American born person. Behringer could make a video demostrating how to program the chases and how to use the conroller.
Overall:
I have no plans to replace it, but if it is stolen I will buy another one just like this one.

"Please please please Behringer, restore my faith in your products, I would buy and recommend more of your stuff if I could trust"
Feature:
Lovely looking piece of kit for the money, more features than you'd ever need for one gig, plenty of headroom to experiment with it's features which could cover from Disco sound to light to 24 channel theatre lighting and more.... but three important faders have packed in on mine grrr after only a few hours use
Quality:
Looks fab straight out of the box, love it's looks. The case is pretty but lightly built, which is ok if you cherish your stuff and look after it like I try to. It can be cased easily enough to protect it's light build - just dont throw it around un-boxed! I am really cheesed off at the failure of main faders though, the unit is unuseable after only a few hours grrrrrrrrr!!!
Value:
If it worked sweetly I would be over the moon with joy at the price. I love it's looks, I am fascinated by the features it packs, It's well capable of what I need and more, very compact, did I say it looks good? - it does. but..... it's let me down horribly by being faulty after such short use.
Desirability:
I still want it, that's why I considered it carefully before I bought it - but...... (read the rest of this review)
Sound:
Umm, it doesnt produce a sound you know.... it does have sound to light features which look interesting, but the chase fader and now the main faders have packed in after only a short use so I can't try anything grrr....
Ease of Use:
It can do lots of things, so there's lots to read up on from it's manual. I reckon I could write the manual with better context and grammar. I tried to read it in english while trying to think like a german engineer! it's got lots of nice little features, that you might not use frequently so forget easily, then you're back in the manual, reading English, thinking in German ^_^
Support:
Dunno, not tried them yet cause I am so annoyed and fear I'm going to be "fobbed off" with "you probably didnt do this..." which is my usual experience of customer service departments, but I will have to get in touch I guess or bin the unit.
Overall:
I have another Behringer product - a Virtualizer, nice kit, again more features than you'd ever need in a practical situation. Again, it's manual is set out really badly and not very friendly. That machine works fine - except when used with computer generated audio, where it suffers terribly from digital noise intereference.
