Fredenstein Bento 8 Pro Pure Analog

As always, excellent service from Thomann and no issues with customs despite being purchased shortly after the UK left the EU. I wanted more slots and have been wanting to introduce analogue VU's into my hybrid mix bus. The Pro Pure Analogue fullfills both needs and considering the spec, this is a great price. Build quality is excellent, feels very solid and no issues populating it with both single and stereo 500 units. The link function works perfectly. No hums/noise with unit in 8th slot, haven't needed to use the ground lift, no noise at all. Thoroughly recommended.

I am very satisfied with the appearance, functionality, and stable power supply......

Sounds good, works well.
Using it on different locations it's working reliable after a half year of usage.

I do like the meters but do not use them all the time.
It's nice to check the levels for a module that doesn't have a meter.

If the screws are aligned well they go in without trouble.

For me, this is a very significant upgrade. The device is built excellently, there was no compatibility problem with any module, everything fits together perfectly.
The connections are only XLR, for me that is enough in the configuration I work in. Another interesting thing is the meter on the front (although the calibration probably differs between types of DAW.. but the point is really interesting)
highly recommended.
