A Brief History:
1989–2001: Foundation and early development:
Mr Uli , the company’s founder, was committed to music and technology at a very early age of around 16 when he had constructed a synthesizer.
While studying sound engineering and classical piano at the Robert Schumann Conservatory in Düsseldorf, Mr Uli, due to the university’s limited equipment, started to build his products. On popular request for his gear from his students, he soon was receiving more orders than he could handle himself, leading to the creation of Behringer Inc.
In the early days, The company focused on studio audio processors such as noise reduction systems and compressors.
Product development continued, and soon the lineup included guitar amps, PA amplifiers and loudspeakers, mixing boards, stompboxes, recording interfaces, microphones, digital pianos, guitars, lighting equipment etc. Behringer’s package of performance and low price is what made it appealing to people.
Earlier days of firm’s product manufacturing happened at Willich, Germany, since many of the individual components were from mainland China,
In 1990, to reduce the production costs, The company shifted production from West Germany to mainland China. By 1997, Mr Uli had relocated to Hong Kong to supervise the manufacturing quality and to understand Chinese culture better.

Audio mixer’s technological specifications:
MIDAS technology: MIDAS has had a long history of innovation and leadership in the world of audio mixing consoles. Behringer is proudly associated with MIDAS designed mic preamps & digital mixers for the ultimate high-quality audio reproduction in both live and studio environments.
Behringer mixers:
Behringer mixers are an excellent choice for audio mixing with specifically designed mixer for various applications such as:
S, SD and SRC series for I/O interface
DJX, VMX, DX and NOX series for DJ mixers
Behringer X32 and XR for digital mixing
PMP series for professional powered Behringer mixers.
Behringer X32 is the most favoured among mixers for its digital mixing capabilities with programmable MIDAS preamps.
Headphones: Behringer provides high definition DJ as well as studio headphones delivering highly efficient music quality with thumping bass. HPM, HPX and HPS series products are few who rule the Behringer headphones.
Professional Speakers:
Behringer has high-performance loudspeaker systems for commercial installation applications, multimedia, portable speakers as well as studio monitoring. MS personal monitor series, B series Pro Audio speaker system, B20 high-resolution studio monitor and K6 audiophile studio monitor are few celebrated Behringer speakers.
Behringer microphones:
Behringer offers microphones in three broad categories:
Condenser microphones: Behringer Condenser microphones are the ideal choice for capturing vocals and acoustic instruments.
They are capable of capturing more detail due to their broader, flatter frequency response and collects sound from throughout the environment rather than just directly in front of it.
Large-diaphragm microphones: Behringer provides gold-sputtered large-diaphragm condenser microphone for professional studio purposes. Designed and engineered in Germany, these have heavy-duty suspension mount with a transparent aluminium case included.
Dynamic microphones: The XM series Behringer dynamic microphones have several advantages which make them ideal for live vocal applications and recording amplified instruments.
Designed and engineered in Germany, they are robust, resistant to moisture and can achieve high gain before feedback. The best feature of this masterpiece is that they don’t require any phantom power.
Other Audio products:
The company has products for varied purposes like Behringer mixers, computer audio, headphones, tuners and synthesizers for musical instruments, loudspeaker systems, microphones, power amplifiers and wireless systems.
Popular reviews on Behringer products:
X32 Digital Mixer:
“Behringer is known for making cost-effective products, but their new Behringer X32 live mixer takes that to a whole new level. The preamps are clean and usefully quiet, with sufficient gain for live-sound applications. The relatively high input impedance works very well with dynamic mics, and the ability to accommodate line-level sources is beneficial. The built-in effects cover far more ground than usual, and achieve a far higher sound quality than would be expected of a console at several times the price of the Behringer X32.”
-Hugh Robjohns, Sound On Sound.
C1 studio condenser microphone:
“The Behringer C1 is a very affordably priced condenser with extra features and would be the first step into the world of home recording for many people. The C1 is a “large-diaphragm” condenser microphone suitable for both live and studio applications.”
