re-bought a lot of things this year.
behringer monosynths are a tough one. i think i bought some this year but i wouldnt call most of them misses. i just feel like its so easy to re-sell or return behringer stuff because it sticks out as “cheap” in the back of your mind no matter how it sounds. i liked the cat, the k2, the pro 1, and the model d. but didnt hold onto any of them. considering another pro 1. sounds incredible. dont think ill ever sell the crave. little bit of an off-topic tangent, but it does relate to my hits/misses line of thought when re-evaluating what i bought and kept this year
