Uli Behringer, the company’s founder, was committed to music and technology from a very early age and had constructed a synthesizer (the UB-1) by the age of 16. Obviously, both music and electronics inspired me to later study classical piano as well as sound engineering. In 1982 I moved to Dusseldorf, Germany to take up piano studies at the Robert Schumann conservatory as well as sound engineering at the Fachhochschule. Psychoacoustics was a hot topic in the ’80s world of professional audio. The few manufacturers who providing solutions for processing or enhancing compromised audio signals were charging a premium to elite engineers and recording studios. A great deal of effort went into hiding the “mysterious circuitry” employed in this technology just to keep it a secret. The Behringer story from a “kitchen-table startup” to one of the largest and most successful pro-audio companies in the world.
