Best Behringer FBQ6200HD Alternatives

I bought this for room eq with a small PA. Positives are that it was inexpensive and the feedback analysis enabled me to get a much flatter sound which was a bog benefit. It's compact, in fact so compact that a shallow 2U rack case is much bigger than you want and I found that a bit of a problem in small venues. I've moved on to a different system now with a digital mixer but I can recommend this for PA or room EQ in a studio or home. The feedback eliminator is great if you don't have any other ways to use it, but if you learn about using a Graphic EQ you can go further.

I use this in conjunction with a compressor for mastering (yes, there are still people mastering in analogue). For the price you cannot really complain, you can cut and boost selectively in very fine detail. There are many EQ which cost many factors more, but I would hesitate to think that they are going to be much better. The only thing I don't like about DBX boxes is that they don't have a power on/off button, so the unit is constantly on when the rack is powered up, and I can't see it costing much more to implement that. This is why it has lost a few stars from me. Balanced connectors on the back is a big plus, usually limited to pro EQ models. All in all don't really have any other bad things to say about the unit. At the end of the day it is far more organic than shifting virtual...

OK. It took a couple of weeks for me to get this EQ into a gig environment, so I didn't know how to review this piece of kit from Harman until then ..... well, you have to put it to test somewhere you would use it. In the studio most people have DAWS, so why bother with another piece of hardware eh? 15 channels ( actually FSC) is probably perfect for live gigs as most mic problems happen at around 2k and the the other frequencies are perfect for tweaking to the venue. I found the +12 was not neccessary in my instance, I use MIDI for my show, but I'm sure a lot of people would need this for group sounds as guitars, brass, drums etc vary a lot depending on personel. All this in a 1u rack, very important, for the price is fantastic. So, it's made in China, my underpants share the same...

As the title goes, this unit offers a plethora of features that are unthinkable at this price range. This fact is not new for the brand, but in this case is probably even more obvious. Illuminated sliders are just an example of that. I use this unit both as the final unit in my guitar rig and for the overall mixes. The sound is reasonable flat when disengaged (neither full flat, as should be, nor coloring the sound in a way that will survive the final mix, for instance) and the features work as they should. Looks good, is super robust for the studio (and I guess reasonable for the road, even when that is not really relevant, since at this price you could just grab another one if something goes wrong, or be proactive and get it as backup from day one!) and looks super nice.
