Most disappointing purchase for your studio?

A Behringer Ultramizer (Digital Multiband Loudness Maximizer), it really sucked but when I sold it, I got more than I payed for it when I bought it, so it was worth it after all...!!!

ABSOLUTELY LOVE MINE!!:)
 
My Behringer B2031A's. I did get a few years use out of them until one died.
THe big killer was my Tascam FW-1884. Not a bad unit on paper but a crappy design with the phantom power means that I now have 2 out of 8 pre-amps that no longer function. This is a known issue with Tascam but they don't believe it's thier problem even though it's well documented that it's a design flaw. In fact I would steer clear of tascam in general. Their customer support blows and they don't update there drivers for any product more than a year old. TASCAM used to be a great name in the 80's but they've really dropped the ball in my opinion.
 
Tascam DM-24 mixer (confusing), the Alesis 3630 compressor (unusable for most things), Tannoy System II monitors (honky), and the AKG C3000 microphone (usable for just a few things).
 
the CAD "premium" 7-mic drum pack. all 7 mics now sit in their nice flight case as i've graduated from using 8 mics on a 5-pc to 4 mics on an 8-pc.

paid $240 for the CADs a few years ago, and then paid $160 for a d6 and $110 on a pair of mxl 603s just a few months ago.

that extra $30 would've gone a lot further a few years ago...:mad:
