When people complain about Behringer clones, they're talking about current products that other companies are still producing like the Keystep, DFAM, etc. Both of these pedals are long out of production.
Chappers seems like an opulent fellow. He could show us all the upscale brothels of London then the climax of the season would be finding out Lee OWNS them all and betrayed his friends trust by failing to disclose this 😂
Use to have the MoogerFooger ring modulator, it was a favorite and I’m still sad I had to sell it (desperate times). I had it set up just like you guys did with an expression pedal controlling frequency, so I could have a warm variable rate tremolo or do little noise sweeps. Btw, just for anyone who’s unfamiliar with how ring modulation works, it really is just a tremolo effect, but then sped up fast enough to become its own audio wave. So you’re essentially vibrating your original sound at the speed of whatever pitch the knob is set to. At lower mixes this will come across more like an overtone, at higher mixes it can overpower the original sound entirely. Basically, it has room to be anywhere from incredibly musical to super chaotic, depending on your needs.
I was waiting for a gutshot before buying - I used to design and build pedals, and that includes many recreations of old fuzz boxes, and I was suspicious that Warm could build so many of these and at such a low price. I have used hundreds of NOS germanium transistors including lots of OC75's and I have NEVER seen an unmarked OC75. All the ones which I have used have been black painted glass enclosures with OC75 printed on the outside. the whole point of such components is that they can be easily identified. I understand that the Chinese are producing large numbers of these components in generic capsules to be marked up as required by the purchaser. The ones in the OC75 Warm Bender look to suspiciously me like the later replacement for the OC75 - the AC128. These are far more common, and I have seen these in unmarked metal enclosures. They don't have the rarity and 'vibe' of OC75's though! In my opinion these are what we are seeing in this pedal, if not those recently manufactured. Saying all this, by far the most important factors are hfe and leakage rather than the number on the outside when it comes to germanium transistors.
The way I understand it is they sorted the oc75 by spec not labelling , so they are functionally oc75s. Warm are able to probably produce these on a budget by buying in insane bulk numbers that most boutique builders can't do
@@JimijaymesProductions I consider that 'functionally' I am Atilla the Hun - but that doesn't make it a fact. Warm Audio are intentionally 'bending' the truth to fit their narrative, and it sucks.
@@alanhaynes418 except your not but I get your point. They said they are sourced for a us retailers and that they are all nos German transistors. We don't have the full story of each individual transistors so will never know. If it sounds like a good oc75 based Mark 2, I'd be happy. Reliability worries me more being warm audio.
@@JimijaymesProductions I used to build guitar pedals for a living and know quite a lot about Germanium transistors - without provenance I would never accept that a transistor is an OC75 or OC76 - they are now very rare as NOS and there are tons of fakes out there. Anyone can CLAIM that a transistor is an OC75/76,and they do, because of the vibe and extra value of them. The ones on the Warm Audio website look nothing like OC75/76's - they are rebranding general purpose generic Ge transistors and then telling porkies about them.
@@alanhaynes418 I understand your not suggesting they have unlabbeled nos transistors that meet oc75, you are suggesting everything written on the site is lies? I honestly don't know why they'd bother if it were lies. Most sellers don't even state where they sourced their transistors mind tell a whole essay on the parts and testing and such. You might be right though, if so that's a wild thing for them to do to risk tarnishing their rep for a guitar pedal (considering their pro audio stuff is much more scrutinised).
Well, essentially 'rate' is for the rate of one lfo, and 'frequency' is for the rate of another lfo. This is why it can modulate more slowly while also modulating so fast that it creates pitchshifting. The faster it moves, the higher the frequency. 'Modulator' is just another word for lfo. Because that's what's used in any modulation effect to create that movement. An lfo.
Put the level at about noon and attack at about 9 oclock and try out some tones there. For me, that is a pretty good sweet spot for Tonebender style fuzz pedals that I feel makes the guitar volume more dynamic especially on a Marshall style amp with a clean setting. I've got a BPC Sound LTD OC75 Tonebender MKII that I love the single note and chord characteristics when playing through the Friedman Twin Sister on a channel set to a clean sound. I've also got a MoogerFooger that I had for years and only use with an AC30 but I never used an expression pedal with it. Now I want to try...
Love these pedals! I have their Centavo & Warm Drive and they are amazing! Can’t wait to get my hands on the Warm Bender. I love that their pedals all can run of a 9V battery. A lot of new pedals only run off an external power source cable.
The RingerBringer does NOT have a true bypass mode as Lee states. It is buffered bypass only! (Thus the drive control is always on... this would be impossible in a true bypass design)
I've got Warm Audio's Foxy Tone Box, the Jet Phaser, and Mutation Phasor, which are nice pedals. These two I'm not so sure of. I'm having trouble hearing the practical application of the Ring Modulator and I've heard better Tone bender style sounds.
Sometimes my brain plays tricks on me. I was reading the comments and was astonished every single comment is in English 😂 The whole list was in English, why is there not one comment in German? It took a while till i realized Andertons always has been an English channel and i can't expect any German comments. Best wishes to all from Bavaria Germany 😂😂😂😮
I love you Lee and Pete, but could not someone who knows how to work the pedal be involved? Lol ring modulation fnar. For example, I presume one cam apply CV to the expression input for more tuneful pitching.... I would have thought the filter fooger a riper target to clone!
The most desirable of the bunch, but unfortunately also the most unlikely to be revived. The prices fo the MN3008s BBD chips used in the 104 are just as crazy as the prices for the pedal itself. Best hope is that Behringer starts producing the chips again, unlike pretty much every other gear manufacturer they have the capacity to do so.
I always feel sad for the guitar amp and speakers when we get into the more crazy sounds and noises like this.. When are you at risk of something getting damaged?
You feel sad? Absolutely no harm is being done to these inanimate objects whatsoever. Men have too many feelings thesedays. What happened to objectivity. Anyway, dry your eye and move on now you know the Amps and speakers are fine. Hope your day improves and you stop feeling sad.
@@jaaybee101 On the actual topic. As long as you aren’t trying to put something with more power than the amp/speaker can handle; I don’t think there any immediate damage it could cause. Though, cranking an amp with certain speakers, using too low a frequency, or just too loud in general, can blow it. Good speakers will usually last awhile before they blow, at least in my experience. I’ve blown a bass speaker, and a couple guitar amps, but the bass amp, was an early 70’s Ampeg combo, with the original speaker it came with. The guitar amps were cheap, and I just wore them out playing it dimed. Lee did mention they switched amps at one point, because they needed something that could handle the low end.
Pete is one of the most tasteful guitarists I’ve heard - but this demo doesn’t show that at all. Surprised to not hear him vary his guitar volume and the pedal level and attack to show the versatility of fuzz and this pedal. Watching him attempt to “rock out” was ridiculous and he was nearly mocking what hard rockers do with fuzz as opposed to showing how all styles can incorporate fuzziness into their playing. Sabbath, Pete, really? C’mon, Captain. Folks, watch this one instead for the bender th-cam.com/video/ybenoigGFrM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_wmY2hP2sFn1blC_
There's too much chaos in this world for 'unpredictable sounds'. That said, it is interesting. More importantly when will Andersons get the Black Cat Rubicon amp? That's what I need. Yes, it's all about me!!
If you have to save for these pedals you can't really afford them. Maybe put your wife and ger wishes before your own? She'll get sick of it in the end but at least you'll have your pedals for lots of lovely comfort if she leaves.
The trick is to marry someone who respects your interests and doesn't have an issue with you spending your own, hard-earned cash on a harmless hobby that brings you joy. 👍🏼
Why don't these guys just stop screwing around and demo the pedal??? .....the "Comedy relief" is NOT funny......just plain stupid and annoying....causing would be customers to leave their TH-cam channel and go where they can actually hear the pedal.....It's really a shame too because I know each of these guys are not as flippant and idiotic as they are acting. My one question to them would be. "Are you guys in the business of selling musical gear or not?"
Lee: "Let's just gun the sh*t out of this!" is right on par with, "Hold my Beer!" Epic.
No one is allowed to complain about behringer clones anymore! If warm audio can put out a moogerfooger, behringer can do it to!
Glad you said it . I was about to til I saw this.. The hypocrisy is real
Big difference: warm makes quality products. Berhinger makes junk.

That warmbender is so damn good
That opening with the ring modulator was gold! What a trip back into de 70s!
Warm audio is taking the lead in a good way on guitar pedals !!! From good studio to good stomboxes !!!!! So cool

You'd think them saying Moogerfooger and warmbender would be enough.
Been saying this for YEARS now!! I'd literally pay to see that!!
That intro sounds better than anything currently in the charts. Half expected Chappers to do a cheeky cameo/pop in for the explosion.

Two of the most impressive pedals I've heard. Really nice! Now I know what to buy. If I ever get the money.
I'm way into that ring mod. They also make a MuTron clone that looks tempting.
That is a really nice sounding fuzz pedal wouldn't mind having one of those
The editing on this one is next level
The pain on Lee's face during the intro was worth the price of admission.

Inagaddavida! I think these are the first pedals that play you.
are you sure the ring mod is switchable between buffer and TB?
Did I just see Scooby-Doo with a pink Hardon and Pete's face?

You should have run the Bender without the other pedal.
