Strange, the one in my case is 24hp.

The Behringer 305 works ok "for the money" but mine sits on the shelf.
The EQ section flattens the dynamics and harmonic content and to my ear, it sounds dull, cheap and non-musical.
A mono EQ in a stereo device is kind of an odd feature anyways.

The little thing that I thought would be useful is the 220/440/880 tuning reference.
Mine hasn't ever been close to pitch and it drifts and flutters in frequency even after warmup.
So it's useless as a tuning ref. Maybe I just got a bad one.

I understand the value proposal, and the merits of an all Series 100 box, and I do like my other Series 100 modules,
but this one is a disapointment, especially considering the space it takes up.

A 16hp module, like the rest of the series, that dropped the EQ and pitch ref,
and added output level modulation for controlled fade of everything, would have been better.

Could have been worse, they could have added that sad Klark-Teknik delay and reverb.

I suppose Behringer had to "emulate" features of the Roland system, so this is what we got.
As a whole though, the Series 100 is an impressive bargain, and that's what they do.
