Behringer might be looked at like the company to avoid in my audio industry from a professionals standpoint

The 222, on the other hand, also comes with Energy XT2.5 ("Compact Behringer Edition") and another disk with "over 100 virtual instruments plus more than 50 effects plug-ins including VST host-, audio- and podcast-software for direct start-up

There are many choices out there when it comes to getting a USB powered DAC.However, not many others can give you what the Behringer UCA222 U-Control Ultra-Low Latency 2 In/2 Out USB Audio Interface with Digital Output And Downloadable Software Bundle can

Again, though, going to Energy-XT's site for the Behringer-version download (search for "energy-xt behringer") allows you to download the same software; the webpage says, "If you already own any of the following BEHRINGER products, please fill out this form and we will send you an email with instructions on how to activate your copy of energyXT 2.5 Compact BEHRINGER Edition" -- and both the UCA202 and UCA222 are listed among the "following BEHRINGER products."2

I'm always amazed Behringer is able to pull off such good results at such a great price point

The Behringer UCA222 is an excellent improvement over the usual audio hardware present on most desktop motherboards and laptops

EnergyXT 2.5 (version depends upon package to package), a driver CD which also includes hundreds of VST instruments and plugins, a manual, my favorite Behringer sticker and finally a silica gel pouch to keep your device free from any humidity

I love Behringer's products even though I've had a terrible time with one of their amps but that is a different story..

Behringer is a serious brand that maintained their quality for this product as well

Great job Behringer.

I still like that little Behringer, but I decided I wanted a professional level of setup for my podcast, so I went for the upgrade.

The Behringer U-Control device worked amazing and I got it at a great price

Also, Behringer promises a software bundle to be included
