Behringer 369 (Neve 33609 Clone) Sound Check 

My God! Someone who actually knows how to use a compressor on RU-vid!

I came for the compressor, but stayed for the music! 👍

This is a great example of “it’s not the car, it’s the driver”! It’s how you use it! Great video!👏

Actually the best thing Behringer ever made has to be said

It creates space and brings forward the vocals and glues the bottom to the rest of the mix

Extremely good demo, thank you for sharing. This thing sounds seriously great!

Thank God a cool sounding demo track ❤. Not another "splashy already squashed" drum example

This is a way better demo than the official demo.

So many flavours 🍭 the power of sculpting using your ears

Wow! This is the track to demo this thing. Love it when you are really pushing it.

Thank you for the video, music and for showing the guts inside the box!

First, great song. And the compressor ... very convincing.

33609 is one of my favs, and have worked with a few. All different revisions and one was specifically modded to be aggressive. From what I hear, this is so in the ball park. Definitely on my buy list.

Thanks. Sounds good. Great song and recording!

Thanks for taking the time putting this video together. 👍🏼

Dude, freakin good test and sound love it, thanx for that. Definatly gonna buy one, it s really woorth it :)

Hey, a lot better than I expected.

Great demo, great song Thanks 🙏

Looks great and sounds great!

I love everything about this track! Ofcourse your work on it as well!! Got my "STANK" face ON!!

Good demo, unit sounds good....and the track is DOPE !

Holy cow these guys are great

Great compressor and song!

Dope tuneage! Super tight 💪🏼.

Guy is a talk box beast

Those drums....sound huge on a tiny speaker. Brilliant performance too.

The 33609 has long been a favorite of mine. Subtle or outrageous. Both are easily found and even the switch stops don’t get in the way. Please let Behringer’s clone be expensive enough to be taken seriously.

Sounds pretty good.

Thanks for the video!

Great sounding

It seems to sound even better the harder you push it

The transients are being tamed very nice, sounds tight and groovy

It's actually very clean and musical sounding behringer did a good job, wish it had a sidechain and mix knob so it could be used with more bass heavy music

Man, I really wanted to hear those auto recovery settings on program material. That tells alot about how it actually stacks up against a real 33609, which is dry and weighty.

I’m buying one because of this video

Man it’s got the weight too. Impressive. That track goes hard.

Great track!

That's it I'm getting one!

Great sounding compressor. Was trying to follow the knob tweaking but I'm over here grooving too hard...

best compressor demo i ever seen, thanks for this. Very Great Compressor, but not my expectation when i compare it to the original. the price is awesome

Cool tune

Sounds like a Studer reel to reel with DBX preamps…

Wow!

VERY nice mix, regarding the compressor settings they all sounded great. matter of taste

Nice test and nice sound! Why is mono selected instead of stereo though?

Well well well! I didn’t think it would sound this good 👍🏽

Merci beaucoup!!

When this unit sells for a couple bucks second hand, i'll jump on it right away!

interesting, not a bad compressor!.. easliy one of, if not the best for that price. cool mix btw, the bottom end is really nice..

fantastique resultat

This was fantastic... we also have to challenge the " has to live up to the real deal". Is the pricepoint good? Is the sound good? Hardware makes the diff no question and just gets you there quicker. I think it's great we have more options for small studios. I think this unit sounds good personally.

Well damn, this thing sounds delicious

listening cassette tapes here from my TELEFUNKEN Casssette deck that was made before I was born and I was born in 1980....easily the best cassette player /deck. that I have ever owned.... sound is jyst so clear and bright but still watm and powerful.... anf and actually, I am a Behringer Analog modular synth user also so we have some things in common 👌🏻🤝

Man...my mouth is watering....GOTA HAVE IT!!

Thank you very much, great demonstration. I have 2 questions. One about gain staging. At what dbvu level does the song enter the compressor. Second, what is the process flow, does the signal go first to the compressor and from the compressor to the limiter or first to the limiter and then to the compressor? Thanks

Seems great!!! Cheap for us?

Nice! has it been released yet to the public?

Looks pro

good music

It actually sounds good. Be interested in hearing it vs a uad or acustica plug-in. Good video!

And here I was thinking the warm audio bus compressor was worth it

💪GR8!

Is there an EQ like this On the market for Mastering? Tkx

Thanks for the video. Noticed that you have the unit in dual mono and not in stereo. This has some effect on the stereo image.

What. A. Tune. Is it out?

Geiles Video und Teil Gruß Abo ist da❤

I can hear the difference but I'm not sure what it is. I'm an experienced user with lots of high end professional gear, but to be honest, I don't quite know what I'm doing when it comes to compression...

Now waiting for someone to compare it to the heritage clone and the real Neve

Could you take some HQ pics of the inside in order to see what opamps are used? Sounds damn good! It's pretty wild to have a 3 trafo stereo path for that price (and you even get a free compressor in it lol)

fucking awsome!

There’s no practical difference between this and the Neve, especially if used as a mix bus compressor, low ratio 1-2db rounding of peaks. Heck, I’d even argue it’s not all that different than an API 2500 or SSL G comp. Anyone claiming the difference is more than subtle at best is full of nonsense. It’s incredible that a compressor of this quality has been brought down to a price point accessible by a broader section of the market. Love or hate Behringer, they are taking advantage of economies of scale rarely seen in the pro audio market.

it sounds nevey.....oh yesssss

sounds awesome, listening in a crappy speaker, great mix!

I ordered one as soon as I heard from it, definitely curious about this one. For the money definitely worth a try and see if I like it. The Klark Technic LA2A clone is pretty good too and the Pultec clone is pretty dope too. I hope Behringer continues to surprise us with more great gear, a tube mic preamp would be nice or even some 500 series who knows what else they’ve got up their sleeves 😊

IT would be nice if they start maming all the hardware clones, ssl and etc. That would be steal

compressor sounds good

Tiene buen sabor

this is great

My first thoughts...oh cool, he takes a new Song from Omar to Demo it..😄..But seems like it's yours. Great work. 👍

Interesting that there is NO mention anywhere of this unit being a Diode-Bridge compressor. That's a key element of the original. Wonder if this is really being done with VCAs instead.

I have no problem with this, hell if I can swap out parts to my liking then I’m okay with it nonetheless it sounds awesome go Behringer 👍🏼

@TheWarriorSongProject 0 seconds ago Who gives a shit what this was mixed on. This is nasty fucking amazing.

i guess no attack setting in milliseconds hmm but if for subtle comp on mic bus it’s ok. i just don’t get buying outboard gear for doing subtle things.

Do you think carnhill transformers would improve the replica?

It's sounds like a bridge diode compressor, such good bang for buck.

On my list insert it into SSL Fusion tho

i think this would do great as a budget mastering compressor i do not think i would get this for vocals at least not from what has been demo i'd get something else like the wa-1b

at first i wanna thank you to behringer to make this (hope it quite affordable too #cough) also nice music that you use for test, sir!

Sounds great but the ONLY negative I've personally noticed from the 369 is those threshold pots seem to be really hard to turn and sound like you're stripping a plastic screw head when you turn them. That being said, I'm still gonna get one.

So here's my rant about Behringer. Back in the day they used to be an incredible high-end outboard gear company where all of their equipment was made in Germany. For one reason or another, and I'm not going to pretend to know the reason, they stayed in the business but unfortunately had to outsource their gear to China. Fact of the matter is, the genius of Behringer is still there and it's clearly behind so much of their equipment so when people piss and moan about them ripping other companies off or whatever they piss and moan about when it comes to Behringer, I think they should just look at the situation as being an incredible value for equipment that would cost easily five times as much if it was still made in Germany. And as they have control over what they release, does it really matter who's putting it together? I'm never going to be one of those people who know about labor practices or trade practices or any of that shit but one thing I do know a lot about is equipment. I know what works and what doesn't, I know what's good and what's cheap and by cheap I mean made like shit, I know when I've scored something that is pretty damn incredible for what I paid and that happens more often than not with Behringer equipment. I have a number of their mics that cost under $20 and I use them on a regular basis in recording and stage applications and Not one of my peers have ever asked me what I was using because it was terrible. However, "Dude that sounds incredible... what are you using on that?" is pretty common for me to hear on a Friday or Saturday night. I use their UMC-1820 quite frankly because the Midas preamps are just the shit. Especially for the price I paid. The amount of recordings that I've made with that and not one person, not one single customer ever has been disappointed. In fact because of most people's surprise at the quality and my recommendations I'm sure that I've helped them sell so much gear. But whatever, I do the same with any company that I dig and Behringer's just always been there at the top. Everybody knows that they're inexpensive, but what everybody doesn't know is that about 90% of it is just incredible, sadly just because they're afraid of trying it out incase their gear snob egos get crushed and they have to admit something that goes against every other sheep's opinions. Baaahhhh

Me want - Phat!

I wanna see a 909 thru it

It's crazy how a lot of people are dissing behringer, like they're defending their mom or something lol Companies don't care about you, they only care about your wallet, stop simping for them. Sounds great to me btw.

Got some Bill Withers up in here

End of the day it's crab unit

Dumb question, but I just bought a Klark Teknik LA2A and 1176 clone. did I waste my money? should I just have bought this? Can this handle vocal, guitar, drum tracks "better" than the K.K. 1176 and LA2A clones?

why mono mode?

as much as people want to shit on Behringer, they are giving the people things like this and no one else is (this is hyperbole, internet)

Jetz hesch denu scho?!

talking, youtubers do it
