Default OT: any products you wont use???

Ok I have a PS2. a DVD/CD player, Digital 8 camera, MDR v6 headphones. All made by Sony. All of these ideas keep my recording sessions going well.

I'm no longer happy with Sony products. Why? Because when I lost my driver for my Sony ilink CDRW. Sony wanted $35 to send me the software. I couldn't download it. Now Sony is only using usb2 since the firewire committy wanted to call it firewire and not ilink. I have one word to say to Sony. BETAMAX

Wiz

What CDrw was that? The good thing is that you don't need any for OS X. I just plugged mine in and it worked. I have a Spressa 12x8x32

no more Behringer for me. I praised my mixer when I first got it (MX2004), thinking they deserved more credit, but now I know better, as two of the faders stopped working. I'll be looking into a Soundcraft for the next one.

I foolishly bought 2 Behringer stereo compressors. I guess they make nice blank panels. that's the last of my $$$ they'll get.

I also, for personal reasons, will not use any autotune type application or hardware device.

Hope this is helpful.

Where-I'll send you two blanking plates and you can send me the compressors!
Auto is rubbish-agreed!

pkhat-yep I had similar reliability problems with a Behringer 8 bus I had a long time ago-bought a Soundcraft Ghost and had many more problems!

EMU have been off my buying list for a long time due to lack of proper support and customer respect.
