Behringer PMP 4000 B-Stock

The Behringer PMP4000 features eight mono channels equipped with Behringer's acclaimed XENYX mic preamps, delivering a 130dB dynamic range and ultra-transparent audio quality. Each mono channel includes XLR and 6.35mm jack inputs, inserts, gain controls, low-cut filters, and a three-band EQ. The four stereo channels - two with full EQ and two simplified ones - feature both 6.35mm jack and phono inputs. Three mono buses streamline routing, with two dedicated monitor sends that double as AUX channels and an FX bus for the built-in 24-bit Multi-FX processor. The latter offers 100 presets, including reverb, delay, and chorus, accessible from each channel strip. The seven-band graphic EQ on the main bus features Behringer's FBQ Feedback Detection System which pinpoints troublesome frequencies and simplifies the sound-check process, while the XPQ surround effect enhances the stereo panorama. For karaoke and backing tracks, the Voice Canceller reduces vocals in pre-recorded material.

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.
