Behringer ULTRAGRAPH PRO FBQ1502HD Equalizer

BOUGHT AS A VINYL RECORD PLAYER ADD-ON..... 'EXACTLY' what I needed and wanted! This is an amazing piece of hi-tech at the right price. Using it for my recently acquired 80s Technics record player, and I was using the graphic equaliser in 'Garage Band' on my MAC, which worked okay but - I get occasional annoying noise and interference I think due to wifi and mobile devices the MAC talks to (couldn't seem to irradiate that). So, I bit the bullet, and bought this fine beast instead. Now have very good control of input and output, the low-cut filter is working a treat, can hardly hear any rumble, no noise interference anymore, the device seems to create a very clean sound, I can obviously still hear the occasional crackles and pops on my ageing records, but I can live with that! Frequency changes volumes can be easily made using the 9 sliders, and easily set to listen to whatever music genre you like! I like a bit of oldie progressive rock like Free and Fleetwood Mac, a bit of Tamla Motown, a bit of electronic Jean Michel Jarre, and so far the results of the sound quality have proved to be excellent using my new FBQ800, and I'm not just saying that. This was the best value for money product I bought all year, and would have given it 10 stars if I could, well pleased! If like me you are on a budget, but you like records, this will enhance your listening! 57 English pounds well spent, you 'might' get it a bit cheaper in January or you might not - who knows, good luck!

I must first admit that I am using this equaliser with the Behringer AMP800 headphone amplifier and the two devices are so well matched that they fit together like a well made sandwich, in all honesty they should really be sold together with connecting cables as a matched pair. OK, once properly set up (to taste) the FBQ800 brought joy to my old ears, for example, I can now hear those delicately played instruments hidden in the mid-range, the lead singer enjoying the song he is singing, background singers now brought into focus and, most amazingly, when the lead singer is singing harmony with the backing singers. I have now tailored what I hear to my particular liking, such as firming up bass and taming bright treble, i.e. mixed and equalised to taste. I believe that this item is well worth the price for it's ease of set up, loads of controls to tailor your music, the way it works so effortlessly with the AMP800 and above all this device can be set to accommodate any music lovers particular tastes. Now I will say that Hi-Fi purest will turn their noses up at the FBQ800 but this device is not about Hi-Fi, it's about enjoying your music and for this well targeted goal the FBQ800 truly brings it. However, the downside to the FBQ800 is it's plastic look and feel but if you can overlook this one flaw you will be very happy with how this device controls and delivers your music. For me, this is a great addition to my music system and a well deserved 5 star device, and “5 stars plus” when used with the Behringer AMP800.

Firstly, it works and certainly greatly improves the sound from your amp and, of course, any EQ pedal is better than none. Buy it if you're on a budget and you shouldn't really be disappointed. In any event, your basic rig should contain a Tuner, EQ and a Looper. You could, of course, just get a Joyo American Sound which does a similar job, or get both!

Excellent equaliser the old quality is perfect. Sounds good good base thank you very much.

Such a cool piece of kit. Brilliant for fine tuning your sound but also lets you know which frequencies require clipping. Such good value and great quality. Sits in my 19" rack a treat.

Budget pedals, Behringer especially, get a really bad rap as a whole. I'm an advocate of budget pedals and it is important I make that really clear and have used Behringer before too. They serve a specific purpose and my review is pitched as such and will not be making a blow by blow comparison to the Boss on which this is based. It wouldn't be fair or appropriate to. This 7 band EQ pedal works. It serves the purpose I got it for. Which was to 1) experiment with an EQ to see if I could make use of one 2) have an alternative clean tone readily available and not have to mess with core settings on my amp and 3) be able to 'tune' for the room when I playing live. This EQ has done all that really well. If you are considering an EQ chances are you have researched how to use one so I will not go into how it sounds from the point of view. Just know that it works as intended for sound sculpting like any other 7 band EQ with the same dB cut/ gain too and it works just as effectively. The inclusion of an overall output level is great giving you more flexibility too - often something left out at this price point. I use it infrequently so the more flimsy build quality isn't a problem for me right now as I am not switching it on and off regularly enough to break it. I have also deliberately put it on my board in a place that requires a bit of a gentle tip toe to switch it on and off. So again, I'm minimising the risk of breaking it from being heavy footed. Some things to consider: -It IS built to it's price point, you must factor this in. -The sliders have little resistance and it's very easy to knock them with just a guitar cable brushing them. -It will break if you're heavy footed with it because it is all plastic and all the internal control mounts are too. -You can clearly see (and feel) where they have compromised the build for the price point. -It is appreciably noisier than other units even with only a few dB boost on the mids. However, if you have your expectations in check before you click buy, the above should not be an issue and I will not mark it down for it. One thing I will mention though is signal loss. Again, this is because it is a budget pedal but it is something I feel warrants a mention as it is a fundamental tone thing. Plugging this into my signal chain had a very appreciable impact on upper mids and trebles with a darkening of the tone even when switched off . Thinking it was simply the 'tipping point' for signal loss on my existing six pedal setup I ran direct into the EQ pedal and then the amp with my shortest cables. The same darkening. I'm lucky that I already have an always on buffer unit on a larger board to fix this, but this is quite a significant thing when you consider it is aimed at budget user who may not have a dedicated buffer. Or even know about them. The more expensive 'buffered' pedals on the smaller board couldn't compensate enough for the signal loss from the Behringer either. Which makes it hard for me to REALLY recommend it. I'm an advocate of budget pedals. They make experimenting affordable and I wish they had been about 35 years ago when I got started and I still buy budget now when I am experimenting myself. Either selling or passing them on when no longer needed. However, there are times when the more expensive version is the better starting point and in this case I think it might be true. A second hand Boss GE7 is still double the price of this new, but even if you decide it isn't for you it will retain the value you got it for and will be easy to sell on and unless you get a severely beat up one, there is little risk with buying second hand Boss stomp box format. Having A/B'd the Behringer and the Boss, there is no appreciable signal loss with the GE7 and on this occasion, I'd say go for the Boss.

Super item first of all Amazon fulfill i like e

家庭用オーディオに使用しています。SPは自作の20cmバックロードホーン（BLH）型ですが、115HzにあるBLH特有の大きなディップは低音域の量感を大きく損なっており、トーンコントロールでの補正もできないため、長年悩んでいました。 このたび最終的にグライコを導入することにしましたが、15バンドの機種では115Hz付近にてピンポイントの調整ができないため、仕方なく100Hzと125Hzの調整が可能な31バンドの機種を選びました。極端な話、私の場合は115Hzだけの「ワンバンドグライコ」があればそれで十分だったのですが、実際には100Hzと125Hzを+10dBほど上げています。 デリケートな信号経路に大がかりなグライコ回路を挟むため、かなりの音質劣化を覚悟していましたが、聴いた感じではほとんど劣化を感じません。さらに入出力はバランス・アンバランス変換による音質劣化も心配していたのですが、これも聴感上では問題ありません。 グライコ挿入＋入出力ケーブルにより、厳密には音質劣化があるのでしょうが、それよりもイコライジング効果の方がはるかに聴感上のメリットがあるため、グライコを導入して正解だったと思います。グライコ自体のコスパはよいのですが、長さ1mの入出力ケーブルの価格は、4本の合計が1万円を超していて、少し高いと感じます。 〔その他のメリット〕6dB/12dBレンジ切り替え、つまみ式ロー&ハイカット周波数設定、入出力切り替えレベルメーター、パススルーSW、私は使いませんがFBQ検出やサブウーファー出力等、至れり尽くせりでコスパは抜群です。 〔デメリット〕左・右それぞれに31バンド、合計62個のスライダーを調整しなければならず、結構面倒に感じます。夏場はかなりの熱を持ちます。左右のラックマウント用金具を外すと大穴が空いてしまうので、何かフタを作る必要があります。

Best budget EQ pedal by Behringer and a very good clone of the boss original. Very good clone, if you are on tight budget and looking for a gateway into pedals. What more could you ask for in an entry level pedal by a very good and trusted brand.

Prodotto valido. Silenzioso ed efficace. Utile la funzione segnala eventuali frequenze In risonanza anche se non capisco se è legato all acustica della stanza od è un indicazione empirica.. By pass a relè. Ottimo prodotto

Seems to work well, I do not get extra noise. Only using with 9v battery for now. For the cost it’s worth it.
