BEHRINGER Spezielle Studiotechnik GmbH (Behringer) is a German company, founded in its present form in 1989, that manufactures and sells musical equipment. The company began outsourcing manufacturing to China before it was common among other manufacturers in this field. By doing this, the company has managed to be a major player in the low cost segment of such equipment. The company has been accused of copying other manufacturers' designs, resulting in corporate lawsuits from Alesis, Mackie, and Roland (makers of the BOSS Brand). These lawsuits and the sometimes improbable low price of Behringer's equipment has resulted in a somewhat questionable reputation amongst some music professionals, with accusations of shoddy craftsmanship and low longevity of their equipment. However, Behringer has been able to provide music technology students and enthusiasts with user-friendly products at a low cost in comparison to their competitors. They use Jensen brand speakers, which are also used by Fender. They make affordable amplifiers packaged with varying options as well as a series that comes with over 20 digital effects (auto-wah, chorus, flanger, etc.) built in. These effects use the company's "V-Tone" technology, which models them to sound like analog effects (which typically sound clearer and sharper).
Behringer designs and manufactures a full line of professional audio products for musicians and sound engineers. Their products include mixing consoles, analog and digital signal processors, guitar amplifiers, studio reference monitors, microphones, MIDI controllers and public address enclosures.
