Not only tasteless, but also unpleasant to watch. Quite an achievement!

I've seen much, much worse commercials.

That was below average, but not terrible.

Is it just me or did anyone else think bad porn-quality acting in this thing? I was waiting for the wah-wah music to start and the girl to start stripping. "Oh, you have a Behringer? I've got something you can 'plug' into, too." Bow chicka wow wow...

"Chestin!, aren't you ready yet? We're going to be late. If we don't leave now, we'll lose our receipts. Helloh-ho?"



Wow, what a terrible, terrible commercial.

A terrible commercial, hurts to watch it. Im glad its not on tv over here.

It would be better it most Behringer products (the cheap effects pedals anywho) didn't mysteriously stop working abter about 13 months...

Question; what is Behringer most known for anyway (other than their mixed-reviewed amps and pedals)? I know some groups use MIDI equipment from them. Surely they must have some strong product out there.

As for their commercial, yeah, that was bad.

That mixer would work better if something was plugged into it.

No, it actually works much better for blocking knives than mixing sound.

Sure, there are crappy commercials made with low budgets, but it looks like Behringer spent some cash on this stinker.

I guess I am glad my father got a Tascam recorder instead of a Behringer.
