One of those maybe….?
Per

The ADA8000, The omni test microphone, a 4-channel headphone amp, and 2 pairs of headphones. Most of this stuff was brand new when it failed. I usually don’t like making across the board statements, but it’s clear to me that Behringer saves its money through lack of quality control.

Then again, if you can get a good one, it usually is a decent product.

If you need something to get you out of trouble, and you need it cheap and quick, then Behringer can be one answer.

The Behringer that fell over on you is unfortunate but I have had a large frame Midas console do the same thing!

I suppose the difference is, when I rang the Midas distibutor, they delivered and setup a replacement in under two hours!!!!

Behringer: “Welcome to Behringer customer service. Our office hours have not been decided on yet so please call back when we make up our minds or the product, in question, is discontinued”

Cheers

Maybe this was an isolated incident, but it was a profound enough experience that I decided I had no need for a Behringer product. Maybe I’m cheating myself.

Hi Brandon

I have seen about a gazillion of these ADA8000s around the traps. The only problem I have ever heard off was that some of the earlier batches, flipped the polarity on the analog output signals. Once spotted, this was not a big issue.

I have been using three ADA8000s on a road PA and so far….. not one issue (touch wood!!). I have another two in the home studio. Behringer seemed to have got this one right.
I also have a DDX3216, Ultracurve and Virtualiser Pro, and none of these have ever played up.

Actually, most of the Behringer digital gear seems to be very good! (did I just say that?)
It is almost like they actually know what they are doing in the digital world. (Maybe the digital stuff is just easier to copy)

Unfortunately, I cannot say the same about a large part of their analogue gear.

I mentioned this in another post last year, but I have three Firepods daisy chained together and it works great for me. 24 simultaneous channels (overkill, maybe) but you can slap a whole bunch of mics on a drum kit and really expand the possibilities tracking a band live (additional room mics, too)
I use Sonar Professional 6 and the only gripe I have is that I have not taken the time to see if you can rename the inputs when they show up in the drop down menu as they repeat with the same input names for each of the three units ( you know 1L, 1R, 1 Stereo, etc.) Just lazy I guess. I do have a standard input routing set-up saved in Sonar which helps.

I just have a 24 channel snake running from the control room to my live and recording rooms and can plug in anything. granted, I do not have the subtle control of Avalon, Manley, etc. premaps at my disposal, but as you alluded to…why do you think they put all those knobs on the instruments and amps themselves. Adjust those knobs and buttons, select the right mic and take your time and the presonus premaps can be fairly transparent.

I did things this way, because I got so confused about how to take multiple preamps into a firewire interface and do it with more than 8 channels. At one time even considered a Tascam DM3200 with the firewire option, but that just seemed totally unnecessary being that it is very easy to mix in the box with Sonar (my opinion)

Sorry for the rambling, but to cut to the chase, it was a real pain trying to decide how to set everything up initially with all of the potential options out there. So everybody can take this post for what it is worth…wasting 3 minutes of your day.
