I was just reading about the Behringer DEQ2496, an overfeatured
underachieving EQ, and was interested in how it has a mic input on it
dedicated for a spectrum analyzer which is graphicly overlaid over the EQ.
That, I might pay $375 for...
So I'm thinking I could use the EQ for a drum monitor when using the
spectrum analyzer for more important issues, when I read more about the mic
input...

Check it out thoroughly, because the original Behringer digital EQ could not
perform spectral analysis & EQ simultaneously. One or the other.

15V phantom power ?!! FIFTEEN?!!
It's the perfect voltage to ruin any shot the unit had at real-world
usefulness! Too much for an electret, not enough for any decent SDC. At
18V a Rode NT5 would be happy. 3 measly freakin volts away from brilliance.

It's enough to run an AKG C451 (or a C414B-ULS for that matter,) & these are
often used in the diffuse field for RTA purposes due to their rising HF
characteristic.

Never messed with the original effering, but the DEQ2496 one does stupid
amounts of stuff simultaneously, including RTA, buncha bands graphic
style, parametric, dynamic EQ, delays, manual and/or auto feedback
suppression, at least. Pretty nifty so far IME.

I'm going to get one for myself to play with, along with a DCX2496.
