I cracked the seal and peeked in the box on the way out the door this morning, it's really not that bad from the back...
But I did throw up a little in my mouth
Take a healthy dose of Neve and call us in the morning.

My Kurzweil is actually racked right above mine. Got mine a couple weeks ago, and after playing around with it a lot, I'd have to say WOW. For this price, I can't believe it. I'm actually going to it more than the Kurzweil now. They sound pretty similar, but at this price, I may have to get another one and sell the Kurz. Shhhh, don't tell anyone. Also, I haven't found a false faceplate for it yet, anyone know where I can get one?Yeah...like Fishmed says above, this thing is astounding for the price. I do in fact have a Kurzweil Rumour racked right below the 2496. From just a few hours of testing I'd say they're comparable in most respects, but that the 2496 beats the Rumour pretty handily on the long 'verbs. I mean, seriously...the down side to cheap reverb units has *always* been the big room sounds. They're typically grainy and irritating. The 2496 is as smooth as it could be. Adjusting the pre-delay time does just what it should...makes the source pop and gives the tail some definition. I found it very easy to find a dozen different settings that would have worked perfectly in this mix. Too bad I finished it before I got the 2496..

^Now that's good thinkin'1) Get an SKB Case to place any and all Behringer units in it
2) Set the case close to your normal racks for ease of use
3) Place the cover back on the SKB to hide the hideous when not in use
PAPER BAG TRICKS can be used for more than one occasion.
Someone is going to string me up for letting the cat out of the bag.

I can't seem to find the 2496 in the West end music shops , i don't normally shop on the net.
I did see the Behringer Virtuliser Pro , which is also a multi effects unit , does that come close to the 2496?

Heh!, Agree with that.I...well, I bought a spare just in case that happened. It's a little embarrassing how much I like this thing.
