discreet Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Oooh! Should this be a thread about riders, or about Behringer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bremen Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I'd like it to be a thread about engineers, and how a competent one can make a good noise come out of Behringer whereas your run-of-the-mill numpty couldn't get a decent sound out the most beautiful professional rig.

EBS_freak Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 [quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1366116330' post='2048464'] I usually see Behringer DI boxes at gigs, I see them everywhere, nowt wrong with them. [/quote] Its cos they cheap and get the job done. Lets face it, spending alot of money on a DI seems quite a dull thing to do, especially when live, it's hard to appreciate the difference between a good DI and a poor DI.

[/quote] It was quite funny, but we're talking about the relative merits of the Behringer DI box at the moment. Maybe Mr Funny should invest in his own little DI box ?

[/quote] yeah, it was funny, sorry to enseriousize the thread! Just a bit grumpy cos of what happened the last time a know-nothing arrogant f***wit engineer got near us. Wouldn't have been the end of the world but it went out on live radio and I (and others) got to hear it after the event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
