A little while back behringer made a pioneer djm 600 mixer clone.. it sucked really badly on many levels, it was wrong and poorly built. they obviously got their fingers burnt, as their new flagship ddm 4000 digital dj mixer is quite the opposite ;)

certain widgets like bpm syncronised effects are increadibly fun & useful, also features eq and dynamics processing on all channels. the mic section also has its own effects section for adding reverb etc ..and supports channel ducking for announcements/radio talkover.

also, took the time to test the players and mixer with midi control from the mixer to use it as a control surface for traktor ! ..and used the time code cd's in the cdj 1000's to control the scratching section of traktor to manipulate music on the pc also. i can confirm all of this works flawlessly :) ..supprised at that ! ..was expecting a niggle.

I don't like most Behringer stuff, although I do like the build quality of the BCF/BCR 2000 controllers. I often find their stuff has underspecced power supplies that run too hot, which can lead to other problems.

NOTE: measured with ARTA & Saffire le soundcard, performance of unit may well be higher on accounts of distortion & noise floor.. as the figures quoted will include what marginal hash it generates too.
