I think Behringer are doing awesome things, its absolutely fun to see them release designs based on barely-available synths and letting the kids get access to it all - and I don't share the ire that most, working in this industry, have for Behringers' pricing pressure, as this industry has long been exploitative when it comes to charging exorbitant prices for exotic hardware. That said, they're not pushing the UI paradigms forward nearly fast enough for my purposes - which is, actually, a good thing: because it leaves a lot of room for big innovation to come from other exotic manufacturers. I just wish it were happening fast enough, but it seems that the maxim is true: "Musicians don't care about the interface, they just want to make noise .."
