Behringer has of course acquired many brands, giving it legal access to many designs. Go back to the 1990s and they blatantly copied other companies gear, like Mackie and Roland, without the benefit of owning those companies. They're still at it, the Klon Centaur pedal being one example. Not that plagiarism in the gear business is unusual. Jim Marshall copied Fender circuits, and there are innumerable clones of Strats, Les Pauls, P Basses and J Basses. Behringer was a bit different, as at one time it seemed that everything they made was a copy.
