12stringbassist Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 I wouldn't be without my BDI21. A little bit of drive and the tone boost are fabulous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the two input one of those to take the input from my chapman stick as it also produces phantom power - the stick has a weird / clever 'active if there is phantom power, passive if there isn't' thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huge Hands Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 i used to do pro sound in multiple venues in the late 90s/early noughties. We used a lot of Behringer outboard gear, such as quad gates and quad compressors. The running joke back then was everything seemed to cost £99, no matter the model! A lot of visiting engineers sniffed at the name, but they worked for our needs. We didn't need to hear noiseless perfection in a venue with 1500 drunk punters in it. We would get the occasional failure just out of warranty, but at £99 we were happy to chuck them in the bin and buy another one - which would have been a bigger issue if we had been using top of the range gear. 20 years on I now own a BD121 and a UMC-22 interface and am very happy with them, thank you very much. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowla Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 The older pedals themselves are plastic copies of Boss, but the internals of both are cheap components. I've got a Behringer Model D and an El Toro; they are both very good. I go with the cheap but not nasty opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 Behringer kit has a habit of creeping into everybody's setup, the sign of a worthwhile brand IMO. Using an XR18, Xenyx 302USB, P2 and BD121 at the moment, all bought because they do the job I need them to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franticsmurf Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 My tuner of choice is Behringer, I use a UMC1820 to record with and since the band I'm in is using an X32 mixer, I now have the P16m as my IEM controller. A P2 acts as my IEM link for use with other bands and, of course, a BD121 is a cheap and compact back-up should the need arise. I started out using Behringer pedals to try out effects I wasn't sure about (usually guitars effects for bass) so I now have a collection of them. I did put together a Behringer pedalboard for fun and a couple made it to the main board for a gig in which I swapped between bass and guitar.
