Feature:
The features are nice, but they should have put a little more into the crappy slow tuning

Quality:
Tuner does not track well. I play bass, and the lo "E" is very hard to tune, an the low "B" on my 5 string does not register at all

Value:
The price was great. that was the reason to buy it. But in this case it jst doesnt work well. Although the rack lights are cool, I already use a Furman power conditioner with lights

Desirability:
looks nice, but I think the Korg's look better, and function a lot better

Sound:
NA. doesnt change the sound

Ease of Use:
it has nice featurs, but unless you memorize the multi-function buttons it is hard to read, especially in low lit stage situations

Support:
NA. Never dealt with them

Overall:
I used to use a Kork rack tuner, however I sold it when I stopped playing professionally. Now that I am playing again I will go back to Korg

Feature:
I was very excited about the dual inputs, cool looking light, multiple tuning options, large colorful display, cheap price compared to other tuners, etc...

Quality:
It's built well, looks good, has great features, a cool light, multiple routing/muting options, a metronome, you can make it look like KIT the Trans Am from NIGHT RIDER.... But it is one of the SLOWEST responding tuners, and inaccurate tuners I have every had to deal with. It doesn't pick up on the notes your playing, or the changes from note to note. It's like it has to clear its memory every time. It got to the point that I pulled my boss tuner pedal out and sat it on top of my rack and ignored the Behringer. After getting off the road, I took and compared my Boss tuner, online tuner, a guitar mounted tuner, a Peterson strobe at the studio, and the Behringer... ALL of the other ones agreed. The Behringer had me almost 2 cents sharp of 440.. it was like 441.5. Very, very disappointing.

Value:
Well, if you want all of those features, except the tuning, it totally rocks. If you want a tuner, I'd look elsewhere unless you have a lot of time to kill on stage and don't mind being slightly out of tune with everybody else.

Desirability:
Cool Look, Cool Light, Great Features (except tuning)

Sound:
No change in sound going through the unit.

Ease of Use:
A number of different buttons with dual functions, but half of the labels for the functions are hard to read onstage. Knowing which ones to hold verses just push when onstage in the middle of a show is time consuming and frustrating. Though generally live you'd just leave it on tune, that usually wouldn't be a problem, but in a couple instances where I needed to change some things live, I found myself trying to step through each process from memory and read the lighter labels in the din of the stage. Single functions buttons would be better, or darker labels.

Support:
N/A

Overall:
I generally love Behringer stuff and won't be afraid to buy any of their other products. I had been eagerly awaiting this since I saw it at NAMM in Anaheim in January. I couldn't wait to put it into my rack... and then it was a big let down. I had expected this to be the last tuner I bought for a long, long time... I'm returning it and getting the KORG DTR 2000. I can't afford to have a slow responding tuner live, let alone an inaccurate one. You get what you pay for in this case.....
