BehringerCONTROL2USB High-End Studio Control with VCA Control and USB Audio Interface

I added the Behringer CONTROL2USB to my home studio and am happy that I did. The Control 2 is a feature rich studio monitor controller that is designed for the recording studio in mind. Chose between 3 sets of monitors and 2 sets of headphones. Monitor mute, dim and mono switches add to the versatility of the unit as do the VU Meters. A back panel to die for, it is so well appointed. Easy to see at a glance how your routing is set up thanks to the LEDs and dead quiet courtesy of VCA volume control at a very budget friendly price. Highly recommended.

Tenía como un año o un poco más en adquirirlo y no me decidía, siempre me lo pensaba, tenía dudas, de su calidad, de sus funciones, si sería buena compra, en fin... después de tanto pensar lo compré por fin y debo decir lo siguiente: si de algo me lamento es de no haberlo comprado desde mucho antes, es un equipo de lo mejor, de muy buena calidad y sus funciones son muy amplias. Si tú como yo te lo piensas mucho, no lo dudes y ve por él, tiene un enorme volumen tanto para los monitores como en los amplificadores de audífonos. Lo que más me sorprendió fue el micrófono del talkback, suena realmente fuerte, tiene un tamaño grande, he visto cómo algunos se quejan de eso pero para un estudio profesional es irrelevante, es decir, su tamaño es idealmente conveniente. Su medidor es del sistema K-20, igual que mi consola análoga lo cual le quedó como anillo al dedo. Cada vez Behringer me sorprende más, como dije antes, si de algo me lamento es de no haberlo comprado desde mucho antes.

Good and trustable product

Let's be honest, the name Behringer doesn't conjure images of high quality gear. Having a Dangerous Monitor ST in my other room at the studio, the expectations for this Behringer unit were about zero. I just needed something to switch between two sets of speakers. Looking at the cost between this and a Mackie Big Knob (of any of the three flavors) I thought I would take a chance because how bad could it be? I was ready to be underwhelmed. WOW, was I wrong. First of all, this unit is pretty substantial and big. It's actually heavy! Tons of ins and outs and it appears to be built like a tank. My first test for cheap gear is to wiggle the knobs side to side and see how loose they are which is an indicator of board mounted pots and overall cheapness. I have to say, these are pretty solid. Hooked it up using my UA Apollo as Input 1 and running to two sets of powered monitors. Perfectly silent! Does exactly what you would imagine and the price is unbeatable. It looks great as well. My only comment would be the stepped VCA big knob is great, but show the location of the pointer in the sexy lighted ring or at least have a white engraved line so we can see where it is at. Not a deal breaker, though, but more of a lost opportunity to make a great product even better. Listen, for the $149 I bought this for new it's a steal. I have had none of the issues (noise, etc...) that some of the other people mentioned in other reviews. Built like a tank, looks great and does what it should with tons of routing and in/outs. A no-brainer. Just do it!

La construcción es de buen material y muy funcional
