"It has been used to capture and mix tracks that ended up on multi-platinum records... even as far as using the onboard mic pre's to power mics on vocal tracks that I guarantee every single person here have heard."
With due respect, I'll make a general observation that if you make an appeal to the authority of your experience, you ought to cite them. There's no crime in dropping a name if it's what you've done, and it permits me (and perhaps others) to filter for your experience. As an example, I have experience in the early/mid 90's with then-alt-rock-champs Fort Apache Studios (where I did not work, but sent projects there) and Zippah Recording (where I did work on some projects) as well as other places. So if I refer to guitar sounds or some of the work of former friends, they can think "ok, Pixies / Dino Jr. / Lemonheads" and at least get an idea of my personal template.

Is Behringer crap? Well, of course it is -- it's cheaply made gear that aims for those who can't afford what they really want. Since that's most of us at some point, you figure out the best compromise you can: can I work with this particular cheap gear? I have had good luck with Danelectro, bad luck with Behringer, and can't bring myself to break my Line 6 cherry.
My question to you, JP, is why cheap out on the wah? I could see throwing down $150 for a cheap preamp when the corresponding Mackie is $1,200, but aren't wah pedals all affordable, relatively speaking? I have a Budda Budwah and it's less than most Squier guitars.
Is there something about the Behringer that's unique?
