I never noticed even a hint to Audacity by a slip of paper. I don't
claim that there isn't such a hint, but I never noticed it. You
shouldn't expect that customers take care about all the slip of paper,
stickers, advertising brochures etc., that ship with a Behringer
product. I don't think that I'm the only one thinking that those things
are waste. Who does put on a Behringer sticker on something? Even if
some people should notice that there is a hint to Audacity, that doesn't
mean that they attach more value to it, than to a sticker.
