FOREWORD
Dear Customer,
Welcome to the team of PRO MIXER users and thank you very much for expressing your confidence in |
|
BEHRINGER products by purchasing this unit. |
E |
It is one of my most pleasant tasks to write this letter to you, because it is the culmination of many months of |
|
hard work delivered by our engineering team to reach a very ambitious goal: presenting an outstanding mixer |
|
for flexible use in studios, clubs or at home. The task to develop our new PRO MIXER series certainly meant |
|
|
|
a great deal of responsibility, which we assumed by focusing on you, the discerning user and musician. It also |
|
meant a lot of work and night shifts to accomplish this goal. But it was fun, too. Developing a product usually |
|
brings a lot of people together, and what a great feeling it is when everybody who participated in such a project |
|
can be proud of what we’ve achieved. |
|
It is our philosophy to share our joy with you, because you are the most important member of the BEHRINGER |
|
family. With your highly competent suggestions for new products you’ve greatly contributed to shaping our |
|
company and making it successful. In return, we guarantee you uncompromising quality (manufactured under |
|
ISO9000 certified management system) as well as excellent technical and audio properties at an extremely |
|
favorable price. All of this will enable you to fully unfold your creativity without being hampered by budget |
|
constraints. |
|
We are often asked how we can make it to produce such high-grade devices at such unbelievably low prices. |
|
The answer is quite simple: it’s you, our customers! Many satisfied customers means large sales volumes |
|
enabling us to get better conditions of purchase for components, etc. Isn’t it only fair to pass this benefit back |
|
to you? Because we know that your success is our success, too! |
|
I would like to thank all people whose help on “Project DX100“ has made it all possible. Everybody has made |
|
very personal contributions, starting from the designers of the unit via the many staff members in our company |
|
to you, the user of BEHRINGER products. |
|
My friends, it’s been worth the trouble!
Thank you very much,
Uli Behringer
