Why couldn't he have used some more interesting pedals?

An overdrive, a distortion and a compressor? YAWN. Get some delay, pitchshift or modulation non that shit.

Documentary was really interesting - do feel a bit guilty though, seeing the Chinese human construction lines.

These people are practically legal slaves - they only get paid 10p an hour at most. boo.

They're happy though and it's a job with good conditions and board and food included. It gets a whole lot fucking worse over there than that.

Yeah, Chinas own factories and production companies are much worse than "ours".

Behringer makes some totally awful products. It also makes some extremely good products, especially for the prices.

the narration is Hilarious, he acts like he's touring a WarZone. He gets all melodrmatic when talking about Uli Behringer.

It's an amazing video though, the way the whole entire city is basically a behringer factory. It speaks to a larger issue, China has arrived, it's doing what the US did in the 20th century, what Japan did post WWII. You can feel how China is growing so fast it might outgrow itself.

This video shows me Behringer isn't going nowhere, so if you hate their products you might want to Rip Van Winkle for the next 15 years. They're just going to get bigger and take over a chunk of whatever market they want to.

Oh of course it's OTT and stuff - very interesting though. And you're right - they are killing the opposition. No way I would buy an expensive mixer, I'm buying the Behringer cheap shit all the way. People are getting into their 4x12"s too and have you heard about their 5150 and JSX clones under the name Bugera?
