Is this what youre talking about?

Behringer gear is good when you're on a budjet.
I wouldnt want my signal going though one though.

Thats the digital model. Im speaking oif the analouge model, the VX-2000. But keep in mind, this is a VOCAL proessor, so it may not suit your needs. I use it to filter and add resonence to my synth r guitar. The pre-amps suck monkey balls tho, which I was confused why anyone would use it as a vocal processor. For 60 bucks, you cant beat it tho. And if your looking to spend a high bit on quality gear, you consider Lexicon or DPS?

Yea I know. For the price of it its the best. I think all Behringer products are the best for their price.

I run vocals through a TL Audio Ivory 5051 real tube EQ-Compressor.
I wish I had Manley VOXBOX though. :)

If you know someone who can make PCBs you can also use this here

The owner of this website sold the pcbs once but they are out of stock at the moment. But on the site he say that maybe there will be another run if he gets enough people who want to buy one.

MFC is a lot of fun and the EB-16 is dope if you know how to freak your settings and not over saturate your sounds (that's when the cheesiness of it comes out) . And as already said, one of the major bonuses is that they're mounted right on your MPC, in front of your face . IMO both are definitely worth it . . . if you find a deal :D .

Ive built 4 or them up to now. As with all of Tonys projects, the boards are the best around,real easy to build too.

Its got a very interesting filter section which may sound limiting at first view. At the time I built mine, I had a big analog synth collection with lots of synths I used as processors but this thing sounds real classy. I makes the sherman sound cheap and is a fraction of the price.

Just a suggestion.

How much do they sell the DIY kit for?

The boards were £28, rare parts kits £12 and the rest is up to you.

Prices may be more now he has redesigned it.

Check out his modular stuff too. Top quality like MOTM.
