" Hi! I’m Tad Donley and I’m speaking in behalf of Expert Village. Believe it or not Behringer ADDA 800 converters and sometimes they do not work. You got to get a couple that work, you have got to probably go across half of United States, to get 2 of them or 3 of them to work, and there are 1-8 channels analog in, digital ADDA out to the computer, clean, it is the cleanest way to do it, there is no stuff in between, there is nothing but just clean pure ADAT, something better. It is totally clean. There is no correlation with Behringer. When you use Behringer you get one that works it will stay working, but if you get one that does not work, you have to send it back, get one until it works, that is what I did. But what happens is, this has no correlation whatsoever, has no certain distinctive sound to it, so whatever goes in is exactly what it sounds like, so I would recommend it and it is cheap, doesn’t cost a whole bunch of money, it is cheap, that is your converters, I had used that, that is what I go for."

on 8/2/2008 I will agree with south50. In my opinion, the Behringer ADA8000 is on the lower end. From this video- I feel led to believe that products by Alesis, Presonus, and Manley are completely equal to Behringer - but this is not true. I also feel led to believe that Behriner products are all but completely defective out of the box - again this is not true. Mr. Tad Donley contradicts himself with the reliability of the Behringer Product from the start.
Signals that travel via fiber-optic are not effected by magnetic interference- that much I will agree with, that is to say that is what Mr. Tad Donley means, still i find his video's incoherent and without goal orientation.
Now- I would like to expose a major contradiction in a statement that Mr. Donley has made. This refers back to his video on Pro Tools.
"This is for a computer thing and it is really going to sound pretty digital sounding. There is no warmth, nothing, it is just going to be flat, as a pancake and it is almost going to sound like your playing with the tinker toys." - Tad Donley
Yet- Mr. Tad Donley endorses the Behringer ADA8000? I find this as a major contradiction. Then he goes as far to say that this product does not color (i'm sorry "correlation&qu ot;) the incoming signal in anyway. But wait- doesn't correlation have to do with phase? Are we seeing a pattern of contradictions yet?
Mr. Tad Donley, I find your video's very misleading and I find them completely frought with inaccurate statements. You sir (again in my opinion) are a bruise on the face of the upstanding recording engineer.

on 8/2/2008 behringer is not the cleanest converter (neither is ADAT). "there is no stuff in between," referring to the quality is absolutely false. This brand is closer to the low end of quality converters and there is plenty of stuff in between Behringer and top quality. They are known for how much coloration they add. I believe these videos should be removed due to the inaccurate and extremely biased information they contain.

on 8/2/2008 At least do a better intro scene whoever edited these Tad videos. There are such things as second takes. This guy should be on the Tim and Eric show for comedic value.
