That would be this one, right?

Looks very much like the BDI21 bass direct interface, which I've used and been pleased with for nearly two years.

I will admit that I hankered to get something like a SansAmp but didn't feel like paying $200 or so.  The $30 BDI21 has done well by me.

Anyone used a Behringer wah pedal? They claim the frequency is adjustable enough for bass....

I'm not sure I have a need for one, just curious if others have tried them out....and for what.

I've always wondered why Behringer copied the look of the MAG300H, since it's not exactly a high end amp. Also I would like to meet the designer who thought it would be a good idea to cover amplification gear in black nylon carpet with a magnetic attraction for cat and dog hair.

Have you noticed that black amp carpet also attracts cigarette burns? Even if you don't smoke, it somehow gives off an aura that makes smokers want to rest their lit cigarettes on it.

I don't own any Behringer Amps, BUT I DO own a BDDI21 -sans amp copy- & it has been treating me well for a few yrs also.    ;)
U mention the 4500 being the ONE bit of Behr. gear ppl seem to like.... well the EUROPOWER amps seem to be failry well respected in my circles.  A friend's been using the 2400w EP amp for about 5 yrs now & it's never given him a bit of gripe!  Been working tirelessly 2x/week now.   :o

I have a 4500H that until I got my 1001RBmkII a few months back was my main amp. No problems here.

'magnetic attraction for cat and dog hair'..... You got that right.

The only Behringer gear I've currently got is the rack tuner. Zero complaints on my end and for a company that's known for reverse-engineering, they do it very well. I've owned one of their cabs in the past and found it ...... sterile to say the least - it wasn't around long. However, I actually didn't mind the few heads I tried. I found them easily on a par with Hartke. Oh yeah, IIRC, BFB from BABP used the Europower amp for several years without complaint. He's the ultimate road-dog, like 250+ gigs/year so that's definitely a testament to Behringer.

Here are the clips of my Behringer VT999, sorry for the long delay but I'm an extremely lazy person!
I use my Epi Tbird (both pups full), settings on the vt999 are: vol/treble/mid/bass on 12 o'clock.
I play bypassed/gain on 0/gain on 3/gain on 5/gain on 7/gain on 10.
I have change its cheap valve with an JJ, that made alot of difference.
First clip is fingerstyle, on the second I play with a pick, third clip is Motorhead (hell yeah).

That pedal sounds pretty good - I prefer the fingerstyle sound - about halfway between distortion and fuzz.  Could be very handy for the right number.
