I have a technical query.

I've ordered a Behringer 302USB mixer and in the marketing information for it it says that it comes with recording software for recording and also 150 VST instruments that can be downloaded.

I went to the Behringer download site and downloaded the relavent VST instruments but they don't seem to do anything. There are various drums and synthesizers all in zip files but when I try to open them nothing happens. A message just appears that says that they are just files that are part of an operating system or part of a programme.

I was expecting that these would be standalone instruments that could be triggered with a mouse or midi controller keyboard or alternatively used within the recording software using MIDI.

Another part of my query relates to the recording software itself. I downloaded this and it's Audacity.

Audacity is not a programme that allows you to record and edit midi though so I'm struggling to understand what the point is of selling a mixer and advertising that you can download VST instruments if there is no software provided to make use of them.

I know that I could purchase separate music recording software such as cubase or protools that might enable me to use these VST instruments but I was expecting that as the interface was advertised with these instruments as being an additional benefit that the necessary software would already be provided to make use of them without the need to purchase separate recording software.

So in summary my query is , can you use the VST instruments with the free recording software that Behringer have provided for use with this specific mixer/interface?

And if not then what is the point of advertising the VST instruments as a "feature" in the marketing information for the mixer if the recording software doesn't support them?

Hi all

I use a Midas MR12 and love it

The one thing that does annoy is I saved all my house music on a "Store and stay" drive with the intention of leaving it in place. However I cant see the song files on there when I switch on - I have to take the drive and and replace then it works fine.

Not a huge issue but as I often place the mixer behind the starcloth I only seem to remember once I have done all the velco ties up!

I either need to fix the USB or my memory :-)

Im sure I did have a stick once that worked fine in this way though

Any ideas on a solution?

thanks

Zigtone.com is another website where you can download free ringtones for iPhone. This site features a wide variety of ringtones, and you can preview them before downloading them. There are a number of different categories available, and you can browse by genre and tag to find the right one. After selecting a iphone ringtone download, you can manually choose the MP3 or M4R format for your phone.

Once you've chosen a ringtone on your phone, you'll need to download it onto your device. Most free ringtone sites have a search box and lists of popular sringtones for iPhone. You can listen to the music before downloading, check the number of downloads, and manually choose the format for your iPhone. Once you've downloaded your earphone, you'll need to install the app to be able to play your newest 'ringtone' on your device.

Here's what I'd like to accomplish:

  i would like to be able to have my own In-Ear Mix that sounds pretty much like it would sound out front, like I'm listening to a CD. Sounds weird, i know! Here's what i have to run it all... the band has a Behringer X32. I have (currently) a Porter & Davies rack system, a Sennheiser Wireless IEM system, and the Behringer S8. I don't think i can accomplish this as a stand alone IEM for myself with the S8. BUT i think i could if i got the X32 Rack. Everyone keeps telling me I would need a splitter though. BUT... couldn't I just run the CAT-5 to the X32 Console to keep it cleaner instead of involving all the fan-tail snake splitter stuff?? HELP!

I am an integrator and I have a install that I would like to propose a TLS84 rig in. I need help with EASE to generate supportive data. I have .DWG files for the space, and of course .GLL files for the boxes. I am just VERY inexperienced and therefore inefficient with the software, and require assistance. I am on shows thoughout this weekend, but would greatly appriciate a call from someone at the beginning of the week.

 Thanks so much.

what does this sentence refer to in the Warning section of the manual - 

► Use a three wire grounding type line cord like the one supplied with the product.

Is it referring to the A/C adapter? Because the A/C adapter is only a two pronged (non-grounded) cord. Or the guitar cord?
