You mean he worked with Garbage? I'm actually impressed. I thought they were a pretty good band.

:D

Don't worry when they have finished with this thread they will find some other toy to throw out of the pram. :p

Not that I really care, but if you worked with even one of the artists he supposedly worked with I'd be impressed.

That's kinda how I made my first million, only hidden cameras were involved.

Is that what happened to the early amorphis releases?
 
It would explain the tone of the Elegy album... Not that it isn't one of the greatest heavy metal spins of all time, but it certainly sounds like it ran through a few boxes that were... questionable...?
 
Ok, let me get this straight, you're impressed by a half-assed producer who works with half-assed bands that labels tell listeners that they like?

Popularity in the music business is rarely proportional to ability or artistic merit.
 
If you could buy one of everything in the Behringer catalog, you might be able to assemble a decent headphone monitoring station, provided it all worked straight out of the box. :p
 
Hmmm ... I met Martin Walker on Friday and he does not look like that. Unless it's a different one. The one I met is the PC specialist for Sound on Sound and was a bit on the grey side and a little hippyish. Oh well ... if it gets him what he wants, then good luck. :)

I think I've argued with you before. It is very very rare that someone just gets famous... the only case I can think of is Ashlee Simpson. Almost every artist has to demonstrate to any label that they can play a show well, record and produce an excellent cd, and sell their cds on their own before they are even considered. You've got this warped idea that these people don't and didn't work to get where they are. However, you are right on some level when you say that popularity in the music business is not correlated with ability or artistic merit. But that is not even half of putting on a good show or creating a platinum album. Are you attractive? That in itself is a god given skill. So you can play your easy solo... can you run around on stage in front of 15,000 people and still execute it perfectly? Can you look into a sea of people and not feel nervous?

The largest part of succeeding in the music business, is being a businessman. Success with your own multi million dollar business is impressive without the music let alone with. So please, don't take your jealousy out on famous people. Respect them because they are more experienced than you (I can only assume this if you are this bitter).

o.k. so now we know you own a sony whoopy doo. i bet the guys over at gearslutz would laugh at your gear.if youve never owned the stuff its so easy to beat up. some of it believe it or not does work. some of my sony gear has been tossed in the garbage too.
 
My only experience with Behringer was with the eurorack mixer. I played around with it side-by-side with a Yamaha MG10/2. I was not impressed with the Behringer at all. It was much noisier than the Yamaha, and after all was said and done, it was not worth the money I would save in the long run because my recordings would suffer (an for anyone who has heard my songs, you know they suffer enough with decent gear).
That's all I have to add to this. If you own Behringer equipment and are happy with it, then I wish you well. But don't get into an argument over it. That's a waste of time and it's been going on here for as long as I have been here (including the 8 months I was just lurking around the site)... and probably as long as Behringer has been in existance. They found a way to make gear cheaper, and at the expense (some feel) of sound quality. If you like them, you like them. If you don't, you don't...

If you're at a point such that you can throw a DMXR100 console in the trash, then my hat's off to you! :cool:

Clearly, you're clueless as far as knowing what constitutes good gear - no surprise....

As far as knowing what good gear is, you guys get your asses into the mp3 clinic and check out what Bruce has done with his "throw-away" gear. It's not the fucking gear, it's the engineer working it that makes the music.
Now get off his nuts and go record something! :mad:


Um, I'll get off your nuts now, too... :o
 
Who the hell throws out Sony gear? Are we talking consumer CD players or something?

Wait a minute, maybe I'm confused or misssing something, but isn't Blue Bear, actually Bruce?
 
Sorry forgot to add this to my last post.

Even if I'm wrong in the last post, go check out Blue Bear's website. Check out the gear, and most importantly the knowledge he has. Also, ask how many people around this forum he has helped out.

Oh and gemsbok, you should go over to gearslutz sometime, Blue Bear is there all the time, and I've never seen anyone laughing at his stuff.
 
From their website, they have 213 products listed, of them 21 had the words ULTRA PRO in their name, 45 had the word PRO, and 41 had the word ULTRA.... Therefore Behringer makes ultra pro gear... I don't care my Behringer mixer is serving it's purpose for now.
