Unbeatable at this price point

Honestly, its simple to use, lots of features for a patch bay, at this price point it really can't be beaten.

I've had several over the years and some breakdown unexpectedly. It is usually a dodgy solder joint or something whchi is easily repaired.

No real complaints.

Quality Patchbay

This is an affordable, and solid patchbay. It seems pretty durable, and I'm happy with it so far. No complaints!

Flexible & reliable

I use 7 of these. Very easy handling & good versatility with a selector for each channel between Normalized / Half-Normalized / Open configuration.

TRS jacks are connected in a smooth and reliable way compared to my 3 awful Neutrik patchbays ...

Good for the price!

Fir this price, it is unbeatable.

Actually, the quality is really good, just like the other Behringers I bought recently.

So far so good

I've had this for a short while in my home studio now, and it does exactly what I need it to.

The only real caveat I'd have with it is that the switches get covered as soon as you rack the unit, but realistically that's not a huge deal.

Excellent!

For the price you can’t beat this product.

I’ve recently gone mixerless in my studio & this patchbay has been so useful I’ve bought a second one.

Well constructed & weighty, the switching across the top to set normalisation is easy to use & change.

For those on a budget look no further.

Works as intended.

It's cheap and works wonderfully. There's multiple settings to allow for routing configurations. For example there's two of these in a synth studio set up. All channels are set to be independent except for channels 1-8 that are set up to feed an interface regardless of if any cables are used.

You can't get a more convenient 1/4'' TRS patch, and can't get a cheaper one than this.

At first I didn't expect good quality, for I though "for the price, who care? I can replace the whole thing for the price of one single jack in a competitor's equivalent." After a couple of years, I still haven't experienced any issue. The quality is rather good, actually.

My only qualm is that the (super convenient) mode switches are on the top part, and can be accidentally changed when inserting this bar into a tightly packed rack.

affordable patchbay that does the job

I recently bought the Behringer PX3000 Ultrapatch Pro after having read some reviews of it. it's and very affordable unit. Build quality at first seemed to be sturdy. However when hooking stuff up to it I noticed that the connection on the back seemd to be a bit loose. The ones i front seemed to be firm. There was also a noticeable noise if you thouch and move the inserted cables slightly. I'm not sure if the loose jack connection on the back is only on my unit, or if this is common to all. At this price range corners had to be cut somewhere.

That said, I'm new to the patchbay thing, so I wasnt sure what to expect. since this is planned to be a more or less fixed installation in oure rehearsal room, I'm not too worried about the backside pannels jacks. I'm going to give the unit a few weeks to try out some ideas and then decide if I'm going to buy the same for the next 2 units I have planned, or if I should try another brand. I cannot of yet say if it has any significant imprint on the sound passing through it. I havent noticed it yet. for these reasons I will give it 3 stars out of 5 for the total. Feature wise - It got all what I need and expect from such a unit.

Does the job

I plug stuff in, and sounds comes out where it should. That's all I can really ask for from a patch bay.

Likes: Mode switches on the top

Nothing to dislike as it functions as described

Flexible and solid

I have two of these and they both work really well. In the UK they are also holding their value on the secondhand market. So better buy new! I think that they have the designed the front and back around the wrong way, but that may not bother most people.

Cheap and solid solution

I use this unit in a home studio environment to patch in guitar pedals and other external gear at various points of my signal chain.

I have no bad things to say about the unit. It does not introduce any noise that I can hear, seems solid enough and was easy to configure.

If you need a patch bay you can't go wrong with this one.

Great patchbay with 3 modes. Saves the input jacks on my pricey mixers and rack units from repeated patching and tidies things up quite a bit. After recently upgrading mixers, I needed to change the modes from normal to pass-thru which took only minutes as opposed to older patch bays I've used that require opening and reversing the jacks.

Seems to be built well enough. I'm no stranger to Behringer gear - some of it is good, some not so much. This one is a winner for sure.
