Behringer X-Touch B-Stock

For users who require more than eight channels, Behringer has equipped the X-Touch with two layers that can be toggled using the buttons in the lower right-hand corner, thus giving the user a full 16 channels. The eight rotary encoders have infinite travel and feature a push facility to which the user can assign their choice of functions. MIDI data can be sent to the Behringer X-Touch either via USB or via a five-pin connector, and the two additional USB connections on the back of the unit allow input devices such as mice and keyboards to be connected or several controllers to be operated in series. As mentioned above, the rear panel also includes two dedicated footswitch connections and one foot controller input for external remote control. The scope of delivery additionally includes a USB cable and a power cable.

The company, which was founded in Germany by Uli Behringer and now manufactures its products in China, has been known for affordable and great-value equipment since its very first product, the Studio Exciter F. An array of mixing consoles (such as the Eurodesk MX8000), signal processors, and later sound amplification and monitoring equipment, has made it possible for countless musicians to fit out their home studios, practice rooms, and mobile PAs within budget limits that were previously unthinkable. The acquisition of other companies, including Midas, Klark Teknik, and TC Electronic, meant that new product groups were added - and also resulted in the technical expertise of these companies being incorporated into product development.
