It's basically a programmable digital multi effects, midi, 19 "rack. 35audio Connections XLR or Jack 6.35
UTILIZATION
Once we got it the general philosophy of the device, programming is the hands down ... and with two good ears. The English version of the manual is far more comprehensive than the translations in French, Serbo-Croatian, Pakistanis etc (which we have nothing to f. .. finally) and allows for example to make a proper set-up of the beast according to the configuartion in which it is used.
SOUND QUALITY
Let's be clear: I bought it for reverbs and other effects applied to the voice config live (effects loop of the table). The background noise is there but bearable. It is mainly based on the settings of high input / output (at the table as the same effect). Well, now, who needs a ring modulator, a vocoder, a vinylizer and other effects to audio of a pinball machine? Not tried the amp simulator, but it's not why I bought it. The reverbs are honest and not metal (as has often been criticized in these columns) ... subject to reasonable use of equalization functions available on the reverb. The overall effect can be used in live ... if we do not change the patch in mid-song (1sec latency!)
OVERALL OPINION
Purchased last week for € 115, the value for money is unbeatable.
The reverbs are more than adequate, I particularly appreciate the combination chorus / reverb. Otherwise, why manufacturers (and Behringer is not alone) do they feel obliged to peddle the "special" effects that would hesitate to use it in the background of science fiction films in the series? Repeat this choice? Yes, if I face the same requirements (using live Buget tight).
