I own a behringer too, it still works, but I've always had to wiggle jacks 
and cuss it a few times and it's not the quietest, it cost me about 50 
bucks, and I don't think they make it anymore but it was the one with 2 mic 
pres and 2 stereo channels and one fx send and tape in and out.

Don't go behringer if you can help it, a little money saved now will not 
make your proud later, save up and get anything better, go for the lexicon 
alpha even, but don't buy a behringer, and if you do and it doesn't work 
nice, don't come bitching to us 'grin'.

You were warned.
