Rated 4 out of 5

lots of features, but you need the free phone app to use it fully

FLOW 8 seems extremely capable, but I still don't quite like how most of the features are buried behind menus, or accessible only with the phone app. I've watched lots of reviews and how-tos on youtube, but still don't have confidence using this. Behringer documentation is sparse, and their phone app has no documentation. Otherwise build quality, packaging, and signal quality seem good.
