There are only 2 resistors that are different from the 808 and TS9. Biyang OD-8 has op amp chip swap and comes with the rite JRC4558DD and 2 other chips at $45.
I bought one and was blown away compared to my original 808 and TS9. It has a little more clarity to me. So I sold both my 808 and TS9 and bought another. 😊
I purchased and noticed the enclosure was not grounded. So I found the ground point on board and soldered a wire from that to the screw hole. And the noise went away and stopped catching interference. I recommend you do same :).
@@NinecoreNeil lmao I know it's so cheap it ain't worth it. I know I ain't going to spend the money to buy the real ones so i did it haha and it was improved in my opinion.
@@goatizied open back plate and you will see the green board. All the wires are black. One of the wires will have 2 black wires, just add a 3rd wire and the other end strip and put in enclosure screw hole and close up. Make sure its same gauge and tin the tip of wire and iron and use little soldering paste.
I PREFERRED THE 808 SETTING, AS IT HAD SLIGHTLY MORE TREBLE DEFINITION, SO THE NOTES WERE A LITTLE CLEARER BUT THE SOUND IS AWESOME FOR £25 YOU CANNOT LOSE! AS FOR THE POSTAGE, MANY SELLERS ON EBAY ARE IN CHINA WITH A REGISTERED ADDRESS IN UK BUT THEY RARELY CARRY STOCK, I THINK IT'S A CON,🤔 TO TRICK UK BUYERS INTO THINKING IT IS A 2-3 DAY POSTAGE WHEN REALLY CHINA TO UK IS ROUGHLY 10 DAYS NOW!
Hello Chief. I'm certainly not an electronics expert. I disassembled the pedal and noticed that there is only one chip inside, that is the "4558D JRC 0088T". This chip should be part of the "Tube Screamer TS808", or am I wrong? Now can this pedal work in TS9 mode if it only has the chip for the TS808? Thank you.
It's a bargain, but it makes a big thud noise when switching modes ts 9 to ts 808. Also led is blinding. Could it be wired to use both modes at the same time> It may sound better. Great guitar playing.
Bought and it’s a keeper absolutely! I’m looking forward to a demo of the dual boost which is a supposed Fortin 33 and Exotic booster. I was wondering if You know that this rumor may be true; Hotone Ampero is a Valeton GP 200 and Sonic Matribox 2 with out the touchscreen rebranded? Also Have You shot these against Joyos Dark Flame and Uzi vs Revv G3 G4 vs Demon Fx G3 and G4. I could probably go on and on but I think I should stop😂 Thanks Man! love Your Content!
Hi buddy the Matribox is nothing like my Ampero buddy Not sure about Demon fx and what’s a clone of what I’ve lost touch a bit with them haha Glad you like the channel thanks for your kind words
Hi Neil,Great video as always.I already have a maxon OD08 so would you recommend me getting one even though I already have an overdrive pedal or would you just recommend it if I didn’t have one?.Do you feel the TS9 offers something different to the other setting on the 808?.Thanks
Gazza Duce hi there 🙏,yes there is a subtle difference I just got it to see if the ts9 brought anything extra as I have an 808 myself ...it’s quite a handy pedal very cheap
@@NinecoreNeil Sorry friend, what I mean is, if the key that changes from Ts 9 to Ts808 works. If there really is a change in sound or if it's just an ornament. I'm from Brazil, I think the translation was not good before, but is it clear now?
well, it has a toggle switch for ts808 and ts9 modes...now starting from the fact that they can't sound like the originals (since even two ts808 won't sound exactly the same ), do they even sound different at least? I'm afraid it's simply a marketing labeling. DOo you hear any difference?
@@NinecoreNeil Oh, I know I'll like it. I had a Maxon OD808 (loved it) but now use a Keeley modded Boss SD-1 (love it). I also have a TS Mini (great) and just ordered an EHX Soul Food (used like new / super cheap). I love overdrives and though I only use 2 on my board, I still buy/try others :)
The musical gear industry is a RACKET! No pedal is worth more than $10 and no guitar is worth more than 50 bucks unless Clapton played it. $8,000.00 for a Les Paul is sinister and ferocious craziness.
I got the newer 2 version that also has a mod switch on the inside. There's enough blues dad noodling videos with these. Nice to see someone use it for metal for once. I plan to do a video of both uses !

The part on board that has 2 black wires together I added the 3rd.
Interesting 🧐 I didn’t even use a gate bud in this demo 🤣 ...so you have no chance of me getting a soldering iron out ,great tip though my friend

Hmmm interesting the Ts9 mode is definitely brighter and tighter I’m wondering if they just tweaked the eq
It uses a different part of the circuit (I imagine it's a small bypass)...

TBF YOU WON'T BE SWITCHING MODES WITH THE TOGGLE DURING PERFORMANCES SO IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER!

Sounds great! What Jackson is that?
Jackson js32 q
Ts9 sounded a bit tighter.it's hand wired supposedly.$25 dollars u can't go wrong...
Mike Cooper yeh it’s a bargain I’ll put it up against the Maxon next couple of weeks or so
@@NinecoreNeil I'm keen for the comparison against the Maxon!
smithy289 hoping to get it done next week although I have a flow of Jackson’s on their way 😜
Wow! Thx for the nice video
Ultimate metal guitar tones not bad for a cheapy eh 😜
@@NinecoreNeil not bad at all! Check out my channel lots of clips featuring mesa boogie mark 3, 4 and some preamps!
How do u like that hesu cab?
I love them great cabs mate ,I’ve just started using Zilla this week so keep your eyes in the channel
Friend, does this key work in practice?
I want to know if there is any difference in sound.
Not sure what you mean mate ?

@@andre_martins61 no worries yes there is a difference the ts9 is brighter and tighter 👍
@@NinecoreNeil
Thank's friend, I will buy this pedal.

Wow super high gain, no lead play, only metal riffs. And how is that helpful!?
Because that’s what most people use them for 🤣 you can’t please everyone
The exact reason we buy them!
Because the power of the riff compels you
