Feature:
This is an unbalanced patchbay. That’s a feature, not a bug. In a guitar rack where all (or almost all) of your equipment is unbalanced, why should you pay for a balanced patch bay when you don’t need one? You’re money goes into higher quality components and innovative features, like the switches that make it easy to configure. Other patchbays say, “just rotate the cards” to reconfigure. Of course, they never specify the axis on which to rotate the card. Not a problem with this unit!

Quality:
Sturdy.

Desirability:
Patch bays don’t have sex appeal. They don’t even have “Sex appeal” in quotes.

Sound:
Sounds great.

Support:
Behringer presales support is awful. I’ve never needed support after purchasing.

Value:
Just avarage. Cheap price, cheap product

Desirability:
All the money you don’t pay upfront (for a dbx, neutrik, hosa, tascam,…) you’ll spend in hours crawling behind your desk/flight case stacks to check the connections, removing the unit from teh rack to check the switches (which are a good idea, but stupidly located and inaccessible as soon as the unit is racked)

Support:
Behringer support is legendary to take forever and cost more than the product. For a price tag below $50, I’d consider it’s a consummable.

Overall:

Neutrik NYSSPPL 48-Point TRS Balanced PatchbayNew, economic, and versatile describes the 1/4 in. modular Patch Panel. 48 balanced channels in one rack space and just 1U high.
Price: $89.95 Buy now!

User Reviews:
Feature:
I don’t like flipping PC boards, and you’re limited to two or three modes of operation.

Quality:
Enh, it’s there. I had a couple of bad boards in the two patchbays I bough. The connections are metal-tipped but otherwise plastic and cheap.

Value:
I’m sure the Behringer patch bays are a better value.

Desirability:
Bleh.

Sound:
Well, what can you say? It’s a patchbay. It doesn’t ADD anything to the signal, so I’ll say it’s doing a good job.

Support:
Can’t really say.

Overall:
If I had to total up the number of hours I wasted plugging and unplugging my cables in and out of this patchbay to find bad nodes and loose connections, I’m sure it would rival the amount of work I was actually able to get done with the patchbay.This patchbay is a hassle to get setup due to the fact that you have to really work to get the cables seating in the jack properly while it only takes a little bit of force to loosen them to the point of a bad connection. Boo.
