I’ve been on a behringer buying kick recently, got a Poly D and a Deepmind 12, both of which sound fantastic and combined cost less than half of what I would pay for one of the synths they’re cloning. It’s amazing how far that company has come from being basically a joke in the early 2000sEllo Sailor wrote:Has anyone been following the Behringer Klon-clone lawsuit? The original Klon pedals go for over a grand, and now scumbags are flipping the Behringers for a similar price.
Apparently they've changed the name and decal and are free to continue producing them. Still, that's crazy.
Two years ago when I took on the duties of recording my drummer I spent countless hours scouring the internet for any and all information on this. I was obsessed. So many rabbit holes to go down!coptheriotact wrote:ive been watching hours of video on drum mic placement this last few weeks, only to not to be bothered trialing out anything new with my current setup.![]()

I gave it a look over and pretended to tune it to the original E and play she talks to angels...I just had an idea that I might just steal it and put a $250 Yamaha in its place and he probably wouldn't notice for a few yearsEllo Sailor wrote:Did you sight the neck? Lookin' good?
