Hi
bought them yesterday and I must say it is well build mixer. It doesnt have aux sens but I doon't need them. It got a tape in/out which can be used for extra monitoring pruposes (stereo or cassete). It has usefull EQ and good knobs (very soft twiddling), If you are a hobby musician at home, this mixer has it all. You can also output your microphone recoding to tyou rsoundcard through your FX output and thus record your vocals and listen to your background at the same time. GREAT! and phantom! and light! small! cheap GOOD! better than mcdonalds! |

HI
Oeps, the berhinger does have aux send (but they use another name for it=fx sends). Well, if it got aux sends and aux returns, it has everythign you want if you are a amateur muscian at home. It has everything. I prefer NOT to buy silders cause the knobs on this baby are better than silders. I tried soem otehr conections , such as: 1) outpyt audiophile soundcard to the aux returns jacks of the UB802 and inout soundcard to FX send UB802 works great. 2) outpyt soundcard to line in mixer input soundcard to output fx send mixer works great, plus you have EQ and pan control of your soundcard output and at the same time youc an record your microphone vocals indepently of your soundcard output. Just turn the fx knob on your mic channel all the way up and minimilize the FX knob on your mixer's line in channel. I don't know anything about what behringer does with its products or its operational and strategical decisions, but I am happy as a client and they work for me. That is themost important element. I just buy the products, I don't look at they business and how it is done. i don't care. it ain't my fault and still their products are on the market. Must be cause they are legal. Otherwise they wouldn't be on the market. BEHRINGER! GERAT STUFF! |

Well, faders are probably a little more detailed than pots, but if you like
pots, that's fine. As long as it benefits what you're doing, then it's right for you and that's what counts. -- Roger W. Norman SirMusic Studio 301-585-4681 "O_Zean" wrote in message om...

Oh, you must have wanted something back or you wouldn't have posted! g But I really think we may have to shuck our "seriousness" over how companies do business and let the courts work out infringements and such. Child labor laws and slave labor claims aside, it's a given that in third world countries the kids making a dollar a day are bringing a dollar a day more into their households than would have been there without the job. I think at this stage of the game it is all splitting hairs over whose slave labor is more slave labor like. So much of the manufacturing is in the third world. Mike http://www.mmeproductions.com |

No I wasn't inviting a response. When are you going to start believeing what
I say? Shuck ahead.....oh, I guess you already did. Jeeze Roger, you ever think about writing OpEd pieces for the Post? It's my position and I'm stickin' to it. Regards, Ty Ford In Article , "Roger W.

Child labor laws and slave labor claims aside, it's a given that in third world countries the kids making a dollar a day are bringing a dollar a day more into their households than would have been there without the job. Personally, I think the totally ****ed up painting of watch dials with irridium where people would lick the paint brushes to get finer points was far worse than having kids do menial labor and bringing money into their homes, particularly when kids without supervision are just as likely to start gangbanging and really screwing with society regardless of what country they reside in. Then it starts getting exported and we're all fighting against an element of crime that the "social conscience" created because they wouldn't accept the circumstances. And no, before anyone gets all up in arms, I'm not advocating such practices. I'm saying that I've seen, first hand, a better living standard based on this scenario. Life with food and a home vs life with food and a home and tons of debt as we have taken on simply to have a life. Don't get on me about it, check the bankruptcy figures and homeless figures and the foreclosure figures and the child mortality rates and the elderly that can't purchase medicines because they are too expensive and such. It's not me saying that it's acceptable, it's me saying that it's a way of life that gives third world people some of the same sense of humanity that we all desire from the sense of accomplishment. Everybody wants their piece of the pie. Fortunately or unfortunately, as the case may be, everybody's piece of the pie ain't the same sized piece. Ask anyone who's farm is going to be foreclosed. Any job is better than no job, any crop is better than no crop as long as the big wigs don't play with the local officials so the crop is so cheap as to not make a difference. To the homeless a hovel is better than a rainstorm without cover. Hell, our own mega companies are shipping American jobs out right now, not because Americans won't work for the wages, but because there are laws that make the wages too high, collective bargaining specifing that unfit workers can't be fired, that productivity isn't as important as the worker providing that productivity even if they don't. That compensation for such things as health care and retirement are absolutes when most of us have neither reasonable health care nor a retirement other than our homes, our businesses and the equipment they own. I'm sure you guys realize that I COULD go on. Sorry Ty, I didn't mean to make this something you didn't want to see. But the concept of our judging others in the world because of their business practices and making those practices the basis for all arguments against a product simply don't any longer seem to pan out. If the Germans, prior to and during WWII, could make really nice mics that are highly sought after now, then why can't the Chinese, for example, be putting out really nice mics some 50+ years later? Because they are Chinese employing children, or is it that 50 years of additional technological development hasn't brought them a day forward, or is it some "inner consciousness" that says "this is wrong" and therefore can never be changed? Should we today be suggesting that anyone susceptible to a heart attack or stroke take Bayer aspirin, or should we be pointing out that Bayer, during WWII and before, disected humans to make the most comprehensive collection of detailed anatomy drawings ever assembled? I'd suggest that we all start looking at the world for what it is, not what we'd like to see it as. Third world countries need our help in staving off genocide, not instituting child labor laws. And the courts will figure out the infringement things, so that's not our concern either. I'm not saying buy a Behringer because it's there. I'm saying that we shouldn't look down on someone because "we" wouldn't buy a Behringer due to business practices. In that case, we shouldn't be buying power from almost anyone here in the US because we're getting gouged all the time due to deregulation and power hungry moguls as evidenced by Enron in California amongst others.

And the cheapest markets are where labor unions can't keep people in jobs
they don't do the work in, like the federal government, who ostensibly can't fire someone without a long drawn out grievence hearing and testimony from others, so mostly people who can't get the job done end up either moving over or moving up. Ask Mike Rivers. I'm sure he's known some really idiot people who've worked for the government but managed to continually get advanced because it was easier than taking them to task for their inability to perform. Certainly I've seen it time and time again in my 20 years of government consulting work. It's not the work you present, it's the projects you work on. High profile projects get you advanced whether you did the work or not. In more mundane jobs it's still the same. Here in DC it takes 5 people to paint an electrical access lid, or dig a trench, 4 of whom watch the 5th guy doing the work. I don't disagree with you. In fact I said exactly the same thing in the paragraph above your response. I just went into WHY we can't get Americans jobs, and a lot of it is these labor union situations where one entity can't get the people they need because they have the people that can't get the work done and can't be fired, so they have no positions available. Labor unions had their day; they increased the income and safety of the worker, and built the guidelines that we, as Americans, expect to see when we hire on to do a job (40 hour 5 day week). But they also made this arbitration thing so costly that most union situations do not get rid of slackers, and, in fact, build slackers because the slackers know they can't just get fired. OTOH, George Bush is trying to eliminate a lot of the good that labor unions have done by calling an initiative a worker's bill, intimating that it's an extension of Clinton's maternal/paternal leave to take care of newborn children, when in fact it's an effort to eliminate big corporation's obligation to pay "exempt" employees overtime by either deferring it until the end of that year, or simply saying they can't afford to pay it and the employee is screwed out of as much as 160 hours of work per year. Multiply that by 10,000 + employees and you've got some $23+ million of cost savings to each corporation. Multiply that by the Fortune 500 and you've got BILLIONS of dollars staying with the companies when the people have ALREADY done the work. This is George Bush in action for you. Now how all this fits in is that on the one hand you have jobs that HAVE to pay X amount because they are union jobs, and on the other hand, money will be taken away from people when they work required overtime because it's not beneficial to the companies that employ the people. And all the while we still have millions of Americans out of work who would be glad to work at any reasonable price if they can just do their jobs. This is a three way schism, not just a dichotomy. So to avoid all the possible legal hassles, American corporations send work overseas while our unemployed can't get a job. Now is it simply because the mega companies can make more money overseas, or is it because there's too much going on that won't allow our American brothers and sisters to work? -- Roger W.

No the jobs are always shipped to the cheapest market, no matter what. American jobs are shipped out as elsewhere because the mega companies can make bigger profits elsewhere. |

And abot the war.....dont use your power to gain more poewr. sto it Well gee if you are going to accuse us of being slovenly, careless workers, lemme tell you about my two Waldorf (GERMAN) synths. The XTK arrived with two screws rolling around inside, one of which had obviously been snapped off from somewhere. The Q arrived with some sort of weird power supply fault, where if you power up from standby mode, it does not put out audio at all. It's an intermittent fault that happens about 10% of the time...really hard to chase down. I love the look, sound, programming, etc. of the Waldorf company and the people that run it, but so far the are batting 0 for 2 in the reliability department. I've got three old (one from 1984, one from 1988, one NOS from the early 1990's) Oberheims that work just fine. So much for that fine German build quality I guess... Analogeezer Well, let's talk about USA polution. That ismuch worse thatn broken waldorfs and ****. Look at the BMW or german pioneers in music. Must be because they are good. I am not saying USA stinks or whatever. i buy american stuff too and I watch jerry springer and oprah somtimes. But americans tend to be so nationalistic. Like the french. Just be koel man! |
