I'm blowing $1100 on new struts, strut mounts, ball joints, and a few other misc suspension parts. All boring OEM stuff too.

IMHO, a 24 channel Behringer for $500 isn't bad. Behringer aren't bad for home recording, but I admit they are the suckiest compared to every other mixer on the market. If I didn't have my Yamaha mixer and I needed a new board and only had $500, I'd admit I'd get a Behringer.

I'm trying to save money to go the Firewire route also.
I *had* (past tense) a Behringer 2642 mixer. It actually sounded okay for the piece of **** it was.

Took it gigging ONCE, came back with a bent fader.

Hooked up a single Studio Projects C3 condensor mic, and it blew the power supply trannies after three days.

Turns out most Behringer mixers are underpowered. And by design not repairable except by replacement. They have a 72-hour turnaround repair service which would have cost me $100 or so. To what effect? The same-spec condition it was in before.

Thank you very much.

I GAVE the mother****er away to a friend, just to be rid of it. He's a DIY freak who probably spent three weeks getting it apart to skimp on a few eurodollars.

I will NEVER spend another dollar on Behringer equipment again. Ever.

(Except *maybe* that new motorized-fader control box. No audio path in that, at least. But I think I'll see how it fares with my friend, first - he manages to break almost everything digital. )

You'd be very lucky to get a working one for $1500, from what I understand.

Of course, that's half a minimoog Voyager, right there.

Now THAT's an investment. If I didn't already have the mini...

P.S.: mine.
