As with nearly all of the Behringer clones, there is nothing the legal system can do to provide what is "fair" to the original designers of their cloned circuits and interface likeness. In my opinion, there is no way to solve this problem. Perhaps design trademarks? This happens in every hardware industry, and China is usually the country that can provide the lowest prices for manufacturing a product.
- EamonnMR 7y agoThe companies that own the original designs have abdicated their responsibility to produce them. It's sort of like abandonware. People have been making software clones of these machines for years, the only difference is Behringer is actually making them in hardware (and thus adding the much sought after premium analog halo.)
