Behringer has ver bad rep, but since they bought some companies like MIDAS amongst others, they've changed course.
I would still not buy their entry level or DJ mixers, but for example their digital mixer is a great product, so is their iNUKE line of amps.
If you've got the opportunity give it a go somewhere, you might be surprised of some of the little gems you might find in their linecart.
The passive B PRO series monitors are really good as well, not bright at all and the 1800pro and 1520pro stack nicely frequency range like.
I did not really feel the urge to show and tell, but it has been some time posting here just let you guys know i'm still out there
Got married along the way as well, which helps a lot in creating goodwill for these kind of investments As does finally going on honeymoon after nearly a month of business travel.
Didn't do anything productionwise after the Telic and Sasha remix comps.
current focus is really mastering and engineering, where "stem mastering" or full track mixing (just a full individual track dump form start to end) seem to happen more and more. I've also already had a few projects where we went back to the midi of some instruments and revoiced them with some other kit. With all the felixbility available boundaries dissapear and there are a lot of creative ways to work together.
I guess fiddling knobs is by far more my forté than writing interesting arrangements. I've hit a plateau there, not being able or motivated to step outside my little boring habits. That's why i find working on other people's creations far more re-invigorating and my contribution to the end result more rewarding.
And i guess that's where my customer sweetspot is as well, i'm being asked to assist, after the creative wrting and building part, where people want to get the mix "right" and they sort of get stuck.
As opposed to the traditional "i'll process it for ya" mastering aproach. |
Don't get me wrong me I know Behringer make a few good products (BCF range, Truths etc) but their old PA stuff (in fact most of their products) were just horrible rip offs of mackie gear.
From what i heard they bought midas because MIDAS were about to go under and it gave Behringer credibility. In fairness they probably got a ton of good R&D from it and high end expertise so that may be where the new products are coming from. Hmmm....might have o go have a listen.
How do you like your SRM450's? Personally I cannot stand them - they are quite possibly the harshest sounding PA monitors I've ever heard which is weird because I like a lot of Mackie products, including the SWA1501 sub.
