Yeah, that's a nice deal.. I was looking at one before that had an MPK49 and a bunch of other gear for a REALLY nice price.

Correct me if I'm wrong, buyt the Xenyx mixer already has built in Phantom power. Making the PHP1 a waste of money.

Another point beeing... Nobody, EVER :) sells products at list price. Check the individual prices on the site instead.

Xenyx 502 Mixer (List Price: $55.99) Actual price: $44.99
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Behringer-Xenyx-502-Mixer?sku=631262

Behringer FCA202 F-Control FireWire Audio Interface (List Price: $99.99) Actual price:$79.99
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Behringer-FCA202-F-Control-FireWire-Audio-Interface?sku=240108

And so on... The package still propably is a bit cheaper than buying everything individually. But not by as much as they are leading you to believe.

Sabotage, I think the phantom power only starts at the xenyx 802 mixer, and by list price, I think they mean by the price at the local stores and stuff like that. And trust me, the prices at some stores can get real nasty. I bought my keystation 49e for 170 dollars at a store close to me, and could of get for 100...

you'll like the gear, but not the monitors. They're garbage.

I've heard they are descent for their size, plus i need smaller monitors, because I don't have enough space for a pair of KRK's

Not a bad package for starters but I think Behringer makes mediocre stuff...that audio interface's gonna be the first thing you'll hav to replace...but that's jus my personal opinion based on past experiences with their products.

Not bad at all actually. Only thing you may wanna upgrade is the mic and possibly the monitors, although I've seen people get good mixes out of laptop speakers.
But yea this should set you up real nice if you're starting out.

Ok ill correct u... Its def not a waste of money. This isnt "Rap" set, this is recording set and 502 has just one preamp, 

f-control dosnt have preamps at all so its actualy cool to have one more preamp (or phantom power suply) so u can record multichannell no?

I would buy one more preamp just to have it on all channels.

Friend this set nothing special but its a good deal
