It's really quite if you use it dry. The only problem is that the noise floor on the FX bus is LOUD. For Live PA, it is not noticable, but for recording it is out of the question. Even the limitter is too noisy to use for recording.

Built in Live worthy FX, the normal mixer stuff, etc.

Travelled a lot and still works fine. Has spent a month on and still works. It's durable.

For $250, what more could you ask for. I didn't get it for the FX anyways.

My dealings with them have been good (simply Q&A, no product problems).

I got it. I would rather have the MX9000, but this one is great for any small live or studio setup.

Rock and anything else.

great mixing, great sound with speakers

great features. i am always finding more things that i didn't know it could do. just when i think i have it figured out, i find another dial or switch or plug or whatever.

great mixer, strong metal body that would withstand a drop, not that it would drop seing as how the rubber stoppers are so sticky

best product for the money

never needed support from behringer but this is based on other reviews

i saw this and i immediately wanted it

Before buying a mixer, i read a lots of stuff on the web... For this one, it was said that it has a very low noise circuit. I dont think so. Especially, if u turn on the effects channel (where u use the fx built-in) an obvious "hissssss" comes out off the speakers... Micpreams are also noisy i think. I turn all the preamps and mute the channels to get rid of that noise...

It has micpreams on the mono channels which makes it useful to get a higher sound level. if u forget about the noise... (no problem in live PA) There r many additional ins and outs on it so it makes it flexible for routing... it has 2 subouts so u can route desired channels there and record them even if u have different tracks playing...

The quality is ok. the sliders r not pleasent to operate but the knobs r ok... connection jacks r fine too... the only think i didnt like r the sliders...

i think this mixer gotta be 300$ or more. 200 is very very affordable...

i didnt need it. i hope i wont.

i want to try alesis or sound spirit consoles which r better in terms of sound, i believe...

Excellent bang for the buck! Very transparent sound. Easy to "dial-in".

For the average 3 to 6 piece band this is an excellent value. The combination of mono and stereo inputs, effects and monitor sends, and built in effects cover all the bases for the average band's needs.

I've only had it for a few months but it appears to be very well built with no problems thus far.

The ideal, easy to transport, compact, feature packed mixer. If you're on a tight budget, this mixer keeps you from sounding like it.

Hevn't needed it so far.

I have been using this mixer in a home studio environment for about 3 months. The sound quality and noise level is unparalleled in anything in this price rance. The sound FX are useful for live application in my opinion, however not for recording as they do introduce significant noise. If you watch your FX input levels on the mixer itself, you can overcome mosdt of this problem.

In my estimation, NOTHING compares at this price point regarding features. This unit is packed with features that I need not reiterate for you here. This unit is very well suited for a small to moderate-sized home studio or a small to small/moderate live application.

I have only had the mixer for three months, but to this point I have had no trouble at all with it. It feels and looks fairly sturdy. It will sit in my home studio, so I don't expect too much in the way of heavy wear. I would be a bt afraid to take this on long road trips unless it was cased well.

Unbeatable value for your money with this one. I had done my shopping before my purchase and did not find anything comparable to this mixer.

Nothing too sexy or exotic about this mixer, which I think is a positive trait. The features are tuned to give you just what you need for a small to moderately sized home studio or live application.

This mixer gives hands down the best value of any mixer under 1500 bukcs. My company e-generationstudios.com used it coupled with a MOTU 828, and DP studio 3 to produce recordings that rival anything and the east or west coast, or nashville.

If this thing had a firewire, the digital market would go nuts! At 200 dollars, it has aveything exept direct outs, and suround sound. But the 16 inputs and the controls/chanel and effects bank more than make up for it.

The sound is distortion free, the IMPs and filters do an uotstanding job, even with that 60khz hum.

I am stunned at the bang/buck...stunned

The Best support, is having a system that I have never needed support with.

what can I say.. Its a mixer... mae leds o cool lights may be a concideration
