A tool for the dynamics – and the extras

The Behringer Composer Pro-XL, also known as the MDX2600 V2, is a fully featured 2-channel dynamics processor that brings together everything needed to control two signals, or a stereo signal, in one compact rack unit. Combining expander/gate, compressor/limiter, de-esser, and peak limiter, the device comes equipped with balanced connectors and an internal power supply, offering a range of functions that cover all practical requirements and leave little to be desired– especially in this price range, where Behringer continues to impress with an almost unbeatable price-to-performance ratio.

Everything included

The Behringer MDX2600 V2 is built to manage all common dynamic processing tasks, with each channel featuring a switchable expander/gate offering two release times, followed by a powerful compressor/limiter that serves as the core function block. Alongside the usual parameters, it provides an auto function for the envelope, automatic soft/hard knee switching, a side-chain path with a high-pass filter and a switchable tube simulation, while the subsequent de-esser allows selection between male and female characteristics, with both the compressor/limiter and de-esser equipped with in/out switches for added flexibility. Completing the signal path is a peak limiter with straightforward level control, while the rear panel offers balanced audio connections on both jack and XLR with +4/-10dB switching, as well as jack sockets for the side-chains. Despite its extensive feature set, operation remains straightforward thanks to the colour-coded buttons, which ensure clarity even with the unit's high density of functions.

Affordable features and functions

The Behringer Composer Pro-XL MDX2600 V2 is an exceptionally versatile dynamics processor that delivers impressive flexibility for a surprisingly low cost, offering a feature set that makes it equally at home in tracking applications or serving as a bus compressor, while also proving highly effective in live sound reinforcement scenarios where budget considerations are key. Although no prior expertise is strictly required to benefit from its extensive functions, a certain familiarity with dynamics processing can help unlock its full potential and make operation even more rewarding.

About Behringer

The company, which was founded in Germany by Uli Behringer and now manufactures its products in China, has been known for affordable and great-value equipment since its very first product, the Studio Exciter F. An array of mixing consoles (such as the Eurodesk MX8000), signal processors, and later sound amplification and monitoring equipment, has made it possible for countless musicians to fit out their home studios, practice rooms, and mobile PAs within budget limits that were previously unthinkable. The acquisition of other companies, including Midas, Klark Teknik, and TC Electronic, meant that new product groups were added - and also resulted in the technical expertise of these companies being incorporated into product development.

Versatile budget tool

With its extensive range of features, the Behringer MDX2600 V2 is well suited to all common dynamic processing tasks, from de-noising and dynamic limiting across virtually any type of signal to effective sibilance suppression in vocal recordings, making it especially valuable in tracking situations where these functions can also be freely combined. When used with the stereo link, the unit becomes a highly capable bus compressor, further enhanced by the inclusion of a peak limiter and automatic knee switching, while additional options such as side-chain inserts make even more practical applications like ducking effects a reality too. Connectivity is equally flexible, with both XLR and jack sockets ensuring that the MDX2600 V2 can be easily integrated into almost any setup or working environment.
