- Stop hyping Behringer pedals!
I have watched a few videos lately about the Behringer pedals where they are promoted as a good purchase in some circumstances. I have to disagree and I make my case in this video. Thanks for watching!

Stop hyping??? They are the cheapest thing out there that get the job done stop whining about everything.
You first German huh?
.... Bro. Lol. Just wait till you meet a German engineer machinist. Lmao.
No love lost for Germans tho. It's the just that the kulture is very direkt and absolute. Totally, super fine kraftsman ship.
No u
@@subixbarbarasson6052Maybe in future "made in GER" wont mean anything anymore... Sad...
Their pedals are just fine. Never seen anyone hype them up more than they deserve. I have seen some of the harder to get hold of ones go for more than new price on eBay, which while being mad, it goes to show they are well thought of. Their reverb pedal for instance is fantastic. They are for 2 types of people, those that maybe can’t afford the real thing and those that realise we’ve been getting ripped off for years by pedal makers!
@@NubsWithGuns there are several like their hi band flanger and blues overdrive that are getting hard to find; next time you want to use the Kool-Aid insult at least check to see if the other person is wrong before you make yourself sound like an idiot
@@NubsWithGuns Sometimes, no matter who makes them, a pedal takes off. Whether it be because they imitate perfectly at a small price or because they bring something new to the table. It happens. They disappear and reappear with a more gross price.
@@aidanknox2430you're the one who sounds like an idiot, those kind of people who can't deal with diferent opinions. Soo glad that you're not the presiden. Btw, visit a doctor or buy a new pair of ears, it will save you money in the future.
Stop being a pedal snob. I have some. Very pricey pedals and quite a few Berlinger pedals. All of my Berlinger are fine. Berlinger's analog pedals are good. The digital ones are hit and miss. Try using a noise gate dude.
I 100% disagree. Your main point of noise never happens with several Behringer pedals I've had. They're crazy consistent. Think you're manifesting your problems. The Behringer fuzz is always on my board. Also, many people say they're worried about the plastic construction not being reliable with aggressive smashing but never anyone saying it actually was a problem. I stomp the shit out of mine and it doesn't break.
Amen bro ,, I love my Barringer fuzz also its really nice ,, found new in box at pawn shop $25 ❤❤❤
I feel like if you're smashing the pedals, you're doing too much.
The circuits are really good and in some cases are sonically dead ringers of classic and highly sought after effects. Less snobbery more rock 💥
I bought a few of them just to play around with at home. I was VERY surprised how good they were 🤷🏼♂️. Especially the tube screamer copy. I couldn’t tell the difference between it and the Ibanez tube screamer. The classic delay was really good too. I’ve always been a “ get what you pay for” kind of guy but the pedals performed way beyond what I expected for 20 bucks.
I've got 3, Ultra Metal, Classic Delay & Multi FX and can't find anything to complain about either. They work fine.
There is literally no difference in that one
Me too that tube screamer is just great period. And that vintage delay is pretty much the only delay most people will ever need.
There is a very good review on the JHS pedals channel, about Behringer clones compared side by side with the originals they copied. Especially with the tube screamer the Behringer version sounds better than the Ibanez and all that for like under $20. There are also 2-3 pedals wher the Behringer clone puts i.e. Boss to shame. I mean it's a no brainer. OK, it's a clone. Kudos to the original designer. Fine, we get it! But please stop bashing Behringer. It's all in the sound and our ears. If you like what you hear then who's gonna tell me the Behringer is ...unusable like this werke moron.
the analogue behringer pedals are literal 1 for 1 copies. same circuit, same electronics, just different housing and knobs. cause the circuit and electronics inside of those pedals, can't be trademarked or copyrighted due to the circuits being so simple.
with digital pedals, there's coding involved that is intelectual property of the original manufacturer, how beringer gets around that is by reverse engineering the code. they look how the original pedal behaves, and then write code for their reproduction pedal to mimic that behaviour. in the digital pedals, they get really close, but not quite the same. all the analogue stuff, is one for one though.
I own 3 Behringer pedals and they all sound outstanding (at least as good as the original inspiration). The only reason they aren’t on my live board is because I play very aggressive music and the plastic housing does not seem like it would last long getting literally “stomped” by myself or our wandering vocalist when he’s running across a stage. I’ve never had issues with “internal noise”.
Gear is a lie.
I own 3 and can't fault them & I've never had strange noises from them either. Good pedals.
Same here, no problem with noise, etc, or whatever, however you will be surprised how resistant the "plastic housing" is. It's ABS and it is also widely used in the airplane manufacturing business. Granted if you put them on fire eventually they will deform or even melt while the metal housing will not. But aren't we being a little pedantic here?! And at around $20 each I'd buy two of each if they sound right to me.
I have a behringer tremolo and octaver on my board. I have experienced none of the issues talked about in this video. Ive been very happy with them
I have to disagree, I bought ten peddles just to use at home. Every peddle is fine. I know they are plastic so I don't stamp on them. I have no noise from my peddles unless I use cheap guitars.
I have had so many peddles from so many manufactures some even from the 70's. I am not a peddle monster, I like my 100-watt Marshal and my 4 X 12 cabinet, maybe a delay and the heads reverb. However, I bought every Behringer peddle last month for between $20-25 each. I even bought their 12 peddle holding case, so maybe I spent $400.00. Out of all the peddles I think I had one that made noise, and two I didn't care for, so I sent them back. I am quite pleased with them, and I have been using them and changing positioning to see what sounds better and where. Personally, I think that you cannot go wrong for the money, and at 60 years old, I am more partial to the raw analog sound and even a little noise since I come from the days that music wasn't perfect. This guy up here, I don't know why he spent so much time crapping on a cheap product that does their job pretty well, when there is so many very expensive POS on the market he could talk about and save us a lot more money than a $20.00 peddle, or even a full box of them, with their peddle board, which is very nice by the way. P.S.-I just bought the Behringer 50-watt Amp Head, and I hate to say this especially to him, but I've been using it more than my Marshal, it sounds awesome and so cool looking!
I’m it’s you , this guys a cork sniffer
Totally agree!
Peddle
super underrated effects
I tried a lot of analog delays with different amps and guitars. Then i tried the behringer vintage delay and i tried not to like it because that would insult my fancy expensive pedals. But i actualy love it. Its my favorite. Huge. Warm. No weird noises. No problem with the enclosure. Gigged with it a lot. Same for compressor/limmiter CL9 and the ultra vibrato witch actualy makes my 'bypassed' sound better. They dont have to be an exact copy. Just sounds better than the ones theyre moddeled after. And about tonesuck.. i have experienced tonesuck with the most expensive pedals. Who cares. Some of the Behringers are amazing. Realy.
same! finally after 10 years the switch broke (easy fix) but it was my most used effect!
@@mohhie i also love it. I used to have the boss mega delau which sounded harsh and robotic this one is much better.
While I respect your opinion (you seem like a thoughtful intelligent guy), you can't ignore the many responses you received below! I've actually collected nearly ALL of the Behringer pedals, 60 or so (there's one I can't find for the life of me), along with most of the Boss pedals they clone and am generally happy with the Behringers. I've set up stereo boards using a long chain of Behringers and it's been fine. I also own ALL of the Strymon line (not the V2's) and the Source Audio line, and other "biggies", so I'm not some newbie. I own over 300 pedals currently in my collection. I've been playing rock since the 70's. I'd buy my kid a set of Behringer pedals if he/she was starting out and I'm sure they'd be thrilled! I can't see them being used by the top rockers because there are obviously better options out there, but in a pinch…
I don't agree.
Bought two Behringer pedals this weekend and I'm impressed.
Both work straight out the box and the price is incredible! Build quality is great.
Just brilliant, entry level equipment!
(I bought the Tube Screamer and Ultra Tremolo)
@@Safetysealed man, you don't have to smash them, just press with your foot; the sound is not any worse than many other Mxr, Boss or Ibanez... The only one brand that are less prone to failures is Boss... Ibanez, Maxon, Tc and Mxr are much likely to give problems like noise, broken switch or simply sound shitty for some reason.
@@Safetysealed bro they are 25$💀💀 you want them in vibranium or sum? ☠️
@@Safetysealed i wouldnt say i overpay on a 25$ pedal lmfao
@@Safetysealed stop the cap bro bro
HaHa! Just ordered a Behringer super fuzz. You encourage me no end!
In summary, your message is:
"Behringer clones do not have the same quality as the originals"
And where is the news? Why did you need 19mins of video to say that?
He also said that they are noisy.... like 4 or 5 times
@@fernandorosa7144 They aren't though !!
So, this guy has his problems with these pedals, but the overwhelming response in the comments is that the pedals are good. I am very much the amateur guitarist, but the pedals have worked for me. The plastic cases seem quite sturdy. I haven't noticed the pots being hard to turn. I really like the Behringer reverb pedal. Some of his complaints seem rather nebulous. Sorry, I still think the pedals have quite a lot of bang for the buck.
Berhinger pedals are great. As good as any of my boss pedals. 5 for the price of one.
These pedals are great..don't worry that they are plastic and all that stuff, if you're running over the pedals with a forklift, then you had a problem.
I have no dog in this fight, but, just thought I'd point out that boutique, and major manufacturers buy bucket brigade wiring FROM Behringer, and Behringer likewise uses that wiring in their pedals.
In other words, you can pay more for a more sturdy pedal (above plastic), but, as far as the analog pedals goes, these are, for the most part, dead on copies of their expensive counterparts.
Digital pedals, not so much.
I see no reason to pay more, unless you're a collector of pedals. I don't buy pedals, nor collect them, but, if I were to buy pedals, I'd go with spending the least I had to to get me where I want to be.
Sorry. I've got better things to spend my money on than a name.
I own around 30 Behringer pedals. They are awesome! It's so cool that us budget bedroom musicians don't have to pay $100+ for each pedal in 2023 from just a handful of companies charging an arm and a leg for the same sounds. There are so many budget pedal makers to choose from and some are even in metal cases with graphics and true bypass.
What would other good brands be?
@@5weating_8ullets The 60 cycle hum channel have lots of videos of what he called "afford-a-board"pedals and they cover most of the brands that are affordable. I would check out those videos for starters. If you are a bedroom player like myself just look on youtube for demos and reviews and just buy what sounds good. The great thing with affordable pedals is that they are typically clones or slightly modified versions of tried and true circuits or sounds and if they end up not being great then you are only out $30. However it is worth mentioning that I have packed up my Behringer pedals and am using a used Line 6 Pod HD Pro X with the HD Fully Loaded model pack and it basically replaced all of my pedals into one incredible sounding box for a mere $300 on ebay + $100 for the model pack which is well worth the money. That unit is like nearly 10 years old and it just sounds amazing still. I'm amazed that amp modeling is so good now.
I have an SF300 and it’s absolutely great
I have 4 Behringers that work just fine, no discernable noise, running through a Peavey Envoy 110, all sound great
Can you tell me which ones you have?
@@KrachWerke I have the TO800, UM300, TM300, and the VD400, I power them with a Hiree noise blocking power brick
I agree. I use the TO800, UC200 and the VD400. All are relatively noiseless and have held up to 3 years live stage use. Plastic or not, they work fine for me. I'll get more. My rig is loud too, Super Crush 100 head through 8x12.
Unsubscribed, this video is completely unnecessary. I have several Behringer pedals, and they're great! I will forever hype these inexpensive pedals.
bro just got flamed in the comments, maybe stop hating old man
I've had just as many issues on and off with my boutique pedals as I have any of my cheap ones. Their 808 clone is great, I use it over my $150 808 clone... somewhat to my dismay. It's a $30 dollar pedal, they're not meant to be pro-level gear, they're meant to be cheap effect pedals that sound like more expensive pedals and they are just that.
I gig with them. They work fine.
Me too. Yes, you are right.
Stop telling me what to do! lmao I love behringer and always have so tuff cookies I will buy what I want and tell my honest opinions on all of them. They are just as good as any pedal
Nothing wrong with any of the Behringer pedals. I've just started out and can't afford £100's of pounds on a single pedal. The Behringers sound as good as most of the pedals they are based on at a fraction of the price. As for the fact you stated that they're 'unusable' well that's not true...
I'm not "challenging" you, but I've watched about 20-25 videos and in 90% of them, the host didn't really "hype" the pedals per se, rather just gave an honest account of what was what, with the conclusion most often being that some of them are really good, some of them suck, and just pointed out the differences in them in build quality vs. the others. My experience so far has been great with the OD300 and the T808, they sound great and the build quality is fine as long as you don't go out of your way to abuse them. I did add little nuts to the input/output jacks, just for extra stability and durability, which cost me all of 50 cents.
So I am happy to be challenged because obviously what I post are my opinions only, fair enough I do only try to form an opinion once I know a bit about something but still... mistakes can be made.
Also, I am happy if folks post good experiences with these pedals because it means they are happy with their product and haven't wasted their money. I unfortunately have not had that luxury :-)
I have 3 Behringer pedals and they sound amazing. Most videos promoting them do publish sound tests and comparisons.
For 25 bucks you can’t beat that in todays world
I have to politely disagree... The alternative 'cheap' Donner pedals you speak about can not be purchased down here in the never-never outback unless I am prepared to spend more on postage than the pedal price (because it has to come from the US).
- Donner Micro Equalizer, 5 band EQ - AU $43 - postage = $52 for 1, $72 for 2, $92 for 3 etc ) 7-10 week delivery
- Behringer EQ700, 7 band Bass EQ - AU $38 - Postage = $15 ( free postage for 2 or more ) 1 week delivery.. So, where you live affects the price.
I just purchased 5 x Behringer pedals for use with my Synthesizers, so they fit my system at a perfect price. (total 5x for AU $190)
I do DIY electronics & cases so I have no concerns about whether the case has gaps in the joins. What matters to me is that it gives me the sound I am after and at a price that I just cant ignore...
Purity of sound is for the engineers and critics to argue over. I dont have time to critique noise, I've got music to make..
Rock on Mate. :)
p.s. to hell with the "Brand Snobs".
Thanks for watching the vid and understanding my point and actually commenting with a real argument.
If any of the Behringer pedals I purchased did not introduce a noise I would defo have kept and used some but that has not been my experience.
I hope is also translated but I am not interested in brand names either, just something that works for me.
Maybe you just got unlucky and got some bad ones? I just put together a budget board made up of 6 behringer pedals (CL9, TO800, HD300, UV300, VD400 and DR600) and I don't have any signal noise issues from them.
I know for a fact I will be buying some again because so many here have had positive experiences. You might be right, I might have just been unlucky.
@@KrachWerke If you use a power supply to power the pedals , check that, my pedals are silent, my power supply is a pain in the butt.....
I have a behringer SF300 (super fuzz), i use it on studio, live and practice. I traveled with it. It's always on my pedalboard. Never, and i mean NEVER had an issue with it, not a noise, not a "click", nothing at all, in fact it did surprised me that, it sound really loud yet there's no noise coming from the massive gain the pedal has. It's DEAD silent. The thing with behringer, is just what it is: they have really great affordable clones of pedals that are either discontinued, or stupidly expensive. Why would i go buy a nux fuzz (for example) if i can buy an exact clone of a Boss Hyper Fuzz for less the price? Because are made of plastic? that's a lame excuse tbh.
!!! WTF Sounds like to me you are Comparing A Rolls Royce to a Volkswagen i have been using behringer Pedals for over 15 years all over the UK as Well as in Europe with my band and have found them reliable and have no complaints
I am glad you had that experience. This video is not about discouraging folks to use the pedals but to counter the encouragement of folks using them.
Folks should buy what they want at the end of the day.
I have used 4 (5) and they were all unusable. And I am not a brand snob, gear snob in any way.
@@KrachWerke unusable in which way?
@@demoxcro786 Too much noise in the signal and the build does not inspire confidence
@Far Stox Seriously? No like seriously? The noise is my fault? The noisy internal buffer is my fault? Did I design or build the pedal?
@@KrachWerke I had a noisy overdrive using a power supply, went away using 9V batt. DC is cleaner, I suspect their AC to DC circuits bite, no filter. Drop a batt and see if it helps. It will serve to find root cause and give you a tech reason to explain why not to use.
I own 10s of boutique pedals and I own behringer pedals, theyre awesome. Some of them are the exact same as boss equivalent.
Never had a problem, never had any weird noise, never had any wonky knobs. The analogue ones are bang on copies and you literally can't tell the difference, the digitals are a bit different though. Made me laugh when you mentioned the wonky knobs, I had a boss pedal that I lost all the knobs on, they fell off in transit from rehearsal and had to be replaced. For whatever reason you have a beef with Behringer, god knows why
He works for Boss 😂
I have 5 of these pedals, they're fantastic! The only downside to the whole unit is that its plastic! Ive rehoused all of mine into 1590b enclosures!
Interesting. What are 1590 enclosures?
I will look it up. Sounds interesting.
Wow. That's awesome. Thanks!
I have a couple Behringer pedals, their EQ pedal and their octave pedal. The octave pedal was an impulse purchase and I don’t use it much, but it does what it’s meant to and does it quite well. No unwanted noise or volume drop or anything like that. Their eq pedal has stayed on my board since I got it, and I am not one to keep a pedal on my board that gives me any issues. I’ve retired at least 3 pedals that used to be favorites of mine by other companies that introduced unwanted noise or signal issues or created volume drops and had no qualms with buying more expensive pedals that worked better to replace those. I have had none of the issue ls described in this video with my Behringer eq pedal. Maybe it comes down to quality control issues. That said, I don’t see myself spending more for a different eq pedal any time soon as long as this one keeps doing the job as well as it does without unwanted side effects. I don’t think the “hype” with Behringer is undeserved at all, I think Behringer has a good track record going and you can’t argue with with the dedicated following they have and how long their success with pedals has continued. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but the vast majority of people using their pedals with nothing to gain from giving positive or negative reviews seem to enjoy them and find them to work just fine. But cheap pedals have come a long way and there certainly are other options these days, so Behringer is certainly not the only company offering quality pedals at affordable prices and it may pay off to try a few different pedals until you find the one you prefer.
you dont care is plastic, yet you mention it about 20 times
The cheap TC electronic pedals would be a better alternative to the plastic Behringhers. TC electronic pedals are true bypass and has solid metal enclosures.
I had a Behringer Chorus that was noisy when bypassed, like you described.
The effect itself was fantastic, but because of the constant swooshing sound when bypassed made it unusable. Off my board it went.
I disagree. I have no issues with mine.
I did not realize these were for music. I have been eating them for food. Difficult to digest.
I plug my behringer boog into my behringer vintage phaser pedal, and it sounds great. The fuzz one is also great.
The way you speak always sounds like you're giving someone the news that someone died. (great video)
I have 4 of them on my board. No problems. Sounds great. No noise. They have been there for 12 years on a gigging board. You mentioned Donner. I had their delay pedal. It lasted about a year and just quit working
Yes I agree. Mine work brilliantly. And, with me being poor - works out really well!
There's a few misses in their range, but most of the ones I've had, such as the screamer and the chorus are oustanding, and I appreciate that they make nice pedals that kids and beginners can afford.
The non-noise issue could be due to battery operation versus mains power
Anybody saying they aren’t good are contrarians. I have multiple boutique pedals, choruses, reverbs, delays, you name it-along with some behringer. most of the behringer pedals especially the analog ones sound just like the real ones they are mimicking. The reverb pedals sound decent, quite different than the ones they’re imitating but anyone who says they don’t sound good are just gear collectors who aren’t actually using their gear to make music.
Sorry you had bad experience but my friends had em to bits and apart from case there identical especially the tube screamer he had a broken tube screamer put electrics in and worked as good as the rhythm guitarists so they are identical same as the chorus and eq pedal all electric elements were same chips same boards
I have a few and they all sound great
The only negative thing I have to say about Behringer pedals is that they’ve stopped producing certain pedals like the Digital Delay and the Rotary Machine.
The Vintage delay didn’t provide me with the results I wanted, so I tracked down the Digital Delay and it was EXACTLY what I was looking for.
Behringer Digital Delay >>>> Behringer Analog Delay
I do what I want.
It's more than 30 years that i am a digital rack mutieffect man, so since them were not so good sounding as today, even if other than cheap once, never had many stomp pedals, recently, for my curiosity, i wanted to try some of them without spend a lot of money, so Behringer gave me the chance, and i've found them good enough to taste stomps, even if i'll continue use my digital multieffects Zoom and old Roland
They get the job done and I think they're great, never had a problem with it, never had noise, the only thing I wouldn't do is stopping on it at regular base, I put them in a switcher
I don't entirely agree with this type of generalization.
From my point of view, the Behringers are indeed low-cost copies that often sound less good (less "natural" to my ear), but there are sometimes very good surprises. I have several Tube screamer clones and the TO800 is ultimately my favorite (the one that best matches what I expect from a tube screamer). I bought a used Maxon 808 to replace it. It is undeniably better but it is not super obvious either .... so that in the end I always have the behringer - which does the job very well - on my pedalboard.
I also recently buy a SF300 which I took for fun (I've never been too attracted to fuzz) given all the praise I've heard about it. Well what a surprise! Playing this pedal on crunched amp is really crazy.
Last example, a friend of mine who plays bass in a metal band uses a Behringer distortion pedal (normally for guitar) which he activates on certain tracks. He likes this one because it gives a dirty sound that matches the vibe of these tracks well.
I realize this is 2 years old but I have experience with two Behringer pedals - the chorus pedal and the noise gate pedal. I find the chorus pedal to be quite good and I use it in my Marshall’s effects loop. The noise gate was purchased as a cheap alternative to my BOSS NS-2, and I find it to be inferior. It’s ok maybe as a spare if someone at a gig needs one, but that’s about it.
Basically saying they're not good without showing examples is not credible. People, watch reviews with sound examples so you can make an actual, informed decision.
I got a few as testers, much as you'd get a mini paint pot tester before you buy the full 5 litres. For instance I have an Ultravibrato to stand in while I save for a VB-2 Waza - it's fine. I'll probably pass it on to a friend once I'm done with it. I've stopped Gassing now that I have a Zoom Multistomp which I'd agree much more useful as a cheap, compact all in one unit. I generally regard them as stocking fillers for teenage guitarists starting out.
They are at least great for experimenting... if you want to try things out and consider using a pedal more frequently and on stage you are still open to buy the real deal... They are still the cheapest option in alot of warehouses online and offline. But I agree; My digital Multieffects still get more used; recording and on stage...
The beauty of aluminium pedal cases is that as long as they are shielded properly they are essentially Faraday cages. I don't know how the Beringer pedals are shielded, but plastic cases surely make them more vulnerable to rfi/emi. If there is some flex in the plastic cases perhaps there can be stress on the components (not least the pcb). That said, I've seen plastic Behringer pedals on pro pedalboards, so I guess I'll have to buy a couple and see for myself.

I just play guitar, for all I care I get them, plug them, and most importantly; play the heck out of them!🎛🎸🤘🤘
got 5 so far and they cut the mustard pretty darn well 👍👍
I haven't taken them apart, but I think they can coat the plastic with cheap graphite paint in the same manner as when you shield the pickups when you build a strat.
I think he’s got a prejudice and is hearing things. The old when you’re a hammer everything looks like a nail.
The problem with the majority of them is the plastic boxes! The circuits are exceptional! No argument there, but they are definitely not made to be on the road! So everyone giving this guy a hard time, take a hike!
He deserves a hard time.
He’s a clueless, obnoxious jerk.
where I live the tube screamer is $ 260 new and the berhinger (fantastic copy) is 40 $ (it`s plastic and feel solid and there is absolutly no noise problem with mine. Do you have some evidence about this weird noise problems ?
Try buying a noise gate. Doh
A noise gate has specific applications for specific conditions. When you need to use it for noisy pedals and noise in your chain that is better dealt with in another way... like not having noisy pedals.
@@KrachWerke i recommend the behringer noise reducer. it is a cheap way to reduce the noise that can be caused by adding pedals. its only like $25 so there is no reason not to buy it.
@@maddoxandhisband9146 I've got one. I haven't needed it for Behringer pedals.
Well I'll save you time. The guy is disapointed cause the 20$ copy isn't as good as the original at 100$.
Thanks captain obvious!
The OD300 is a great pedal. I get tones and a playing response from them that I don't get from my other pedals. My other favorite pedals are some of my earthqaukers.
The noise is in your brain. I've got the fuzz and the tube overdrive and they're as good as my hi end pedals.
Dude - good video - but stop smacking your tongue off of the roof of your mouth, in between sentences ✌️
Thanks, now I cannot unhear it. 😂
@@Wantar Imagine how his wife feels..
Also he's completely wrong in what he's saying.. clueless. He's keeping a straight face but he's made this video just to try and get views/exposure. If JHS, Know your gear, Andertons actually say these pedals aren't that bad - professionals, yet this unknown bloke says they are rubbish.. hmm
I only have one Behringer pedal. It's the Ultra Chorus, a clone of the Boss Super Chorus. They sound exactly the same, side by side comparison with knobs on the same spot, and they are undistinguible.
They're the exact same circuits as boss pedals the only difference is the housing
I have 20 pedals from Behringer and they are good voor the price . Behringer is not bad!!!
Mine are fine. Do I detect a little snobbery here?
I agree somewhat. I have the compressor/sustainer and the Graphic Equalizer pedal, and not that happy with them. They seems to lack something. Like you said the EQ is noisy at unity, and then more. The noise reducer isn't great. However the tube overdrive I think is a bargain. Underneath the footswitch a plastic stick thing that presses a small censor which is the weakest link. My compressor prob has some damage to this as you have to press the left side of the pedal. I'm not a gear snob as I have a Tomsline 'Plexion' which I much prefer to my Gov'nor. I agree with you getting a multi FX before buying 6 of these.
I have 2 myself for my bass and they sound great. Know quite a few people, one a doctorate in music, that uses multiple ones as well for guitar. There's nothing wrong with these pedals especially at this price
I respect your thoughts but i'm sorry, i really don't get your point. They have their place in the world, they have a market, many people are happy with them, many people can't afford different and last but not least you don't have to buy them if you don't like them. As i see it everybody wins ;)
I own a super fuzz and a hyper fuzz fz 2 and the Behringer I must say has a deeper bass tone to it zero probs with it all.
i 100 disagree i have been using for 10 years and the are amazing .....and the best cheap sound is mixing behirnger pedal with gt1 boss
Right, much better too pay 400 or, 500 bucks for a grossly overpriced Stryman
Can’t stop……won’t stop. Behringer out here offering the same sound as $$$ pedals at a great price.
Behringer rules
So you want a boss but can't afford one, buy a behringer
Thank God the Behringer pedals dont make your whiny, lip smacking sounds that you make so constantly throughout this video!
I would recommend any of the Behringer pedals for anyone starting out. If you get the point where their downsides are actually hindering your playing or progresss then you are ready to invest in something a bit more specific and you're saving the pennies to get exactly what you want. You cannot seriously complain about the quality of the sound/electronics for the price. Do you think you average learner, or hobbyist is going to spend their cash on high quality hardware that costs at least £100+ per pedal or around £100 on three of four Behringer pedals? Most people can't tell the difference between the Behringer pedals and the pedal's they're copying. However, if you can tell the difference in how they sound whilst playing, then, as I mentioned, you probably already own the pedal you want. Let's not forget that a lot of your sound will also be defined by your guitar and amp.
They sound good to me, and in some cases they are better than the alternative. The ultra chorus is a clone of the Boss Ch-1 but its a clone of the old, very expensive analog version, rather than the new digital version that Boss make.
I used them 15 years ago and considered them a starting point for getting into pedals and also not having much money it was a bargain. I used them for about a year and then got into Strymon and never looked back.
PS Your right they are noisy.
I've got Seymour Duncan SFX-08 Power Grid Distortion pedal, it was the noisiest pedal I ever played until I bought a proper power supply for it.
So if your pedal makes hum, check its power source first.
I own a plenty of Behringer pedals, they make no hum at all, because I'm using Behringer power supply with them.
I had a similar hiss, then I moved the things that were near to the pedals and they were fine, so...? Knobs are fine, sounds great, oh well?
I don’t agerat all. I have the vintage phaser and it sound way more expensive than it is. I also have the EQ pedal that i use as a clean boost and it sounds great. I’ve gigged with these pedals and they preformed just as good as my more expensive pedals. I havn’t noticed any tone sucking. The worst budget friendly pedals iv’e bought was from Tomsline, they where dissapointing.
Folks, this is a competitor of Behringer. I have a Behringer Overdrive, an Ibanez TS 808 and a Vertex Overdrive. Yes the Behringer isn't the same build quality of the Ibanez or Vertex but it's fine.
To prove your point, what you should do is set up some fair blind AB tests where you have to identify the pedals correctly without seeing them. Then you can prove that you can hear the internal noise etc above the Boss counterparts. That would be interesting. Otherwise, it's pretty much established that people hear with their eyes and that's most likely what's going on here. There are channels which have set up these AB tests and people can't pick the expensive pedal.
If something not like something else .Then it's something of it's own. so thats not a bad thing .I have Behringer vintage phaser and an ultra chorus that I am very happy with. I am in no way a gear snob and without Behringer my pedal board would be very sparce .
If 99 people have the opinion that they are great versus 1 person who has the opinion that they are no good, it's probably better to take seriously the opinion of the 99.
Getting back into music after many years and got a new found love for synthesis which i never liked. Ended up with 4 VOlcas now and was looking to dabble around with effects and bought this off amazon. This guy is right. They are way too crap. i mean i have a behringer umc1820 and its preamps are amazing quality. Behringer does have some amazing gems but sadly this pedal isnt one of them. HE IS RIGHT ABOUT THE TONE SUCK. I HAD TO TURN MY GAIN ALL THE WAY UP TO 12'o clock. The tone suck is fucking crazy on this pedal. I have packed it away as it came and will be returning it tomorrow first thing. Get any reverb pedal but not this one. If they are suckinbg so much character and tone out of the synth i can only imagine how crap it will sound with a guitar. THIS GUY KNOWS WHAT HE IS SAYING. wait, save up and get a zoom stomp effects pedal. Much better option.
Only one I had trouble with was the distortion modeler which was noisy but I got it used for peanuts so who cares , they've discontinued that one anyway.
Tremolo, chorus and drives are all good analog circuits.
I don't want a cheap digital multi effect thanks 😹
Welches Netzteil nutzt du denn genau?
own a few for my bedroom pedalboard (𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘦𝘥𝘢𝘭𝘣𝘰𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘨𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘨 & 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸𝘴) i have the Equalizer EQ700, Multi FX FX600, Ultra Chorus UC200, Noise Reducer NR300 & Ultra Metal UM300. All are awesome for what they can do & of cos the pricing...except the Ultra Metal UM300 (𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘥𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘬𝘴...𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘕𝘜𝘟 𝘗𝘭𝘦𝘹𝘪 𝘊𝘳𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘩). Internal noise? never a problem with this pedalboard...just use a power brick to power them
I bought 5 behringer pedals 12 YEARS ago. Two were rubbish; the rotary simulator and the bass synthesizer. The other 3 still live on my board. NONE of them inserts any more noise into the signal than there original counterpart. One is a copy of the echo park from line6 witch is discontinued but you can still buy new from behringer. Another, is the (maybe hyped) SF300 which, is nothing short of amazing, accurate and 20 times less expensive. Lastly, the third one is the refined version of the Boss ps5; yes this Chinese pedal outperforms it’s “Japanese” counterpart. For someone basically claiming all Behringer pedals suck but than praises there usb interface which have some of the ugliest pre-amps in the market; I must un-respectfully say to you sir, you are full of manure. TH-cam and hyping is basically the same thing, and you’re just playing that same old game.
I bought a Behringer Digital Reverb because it was cheaper than a Domino's meal. The circuitry is the same as more expensive pedals, I think you've got a problem with plastic mate. Take care.
ha ha ha... I never thought of it that way, but yes. A couple of pizzas or another Behringer pedal?
hmm, I think I shall go and get that Bass Overdrive pedal I have been eyeing off...
:)
I sold mine today. The only good reverb was the plate. The mix is useless after the mid position you get just wet signal after that. Behringer digitals copies are not that great. Legally they can't copy the algorithms.
@@ot4kon At 15, with a Woolco guitar and amp that only had 'echo' on it, any form of reverb would have been a wet dream. I don't know what an algorithem is, legally, Chinese Les Paul's are illegal, if you try and sell them on. Working class background. Mate.
@@ericcrawford9827 behringer products are legal. They are able to clone analog design legally because most analog pedals are just manufacturer implementations of the electronics. No one owns the building blocks of electronics. But with digital. Imagine a mini computer inside doing sound manipulation. And you can copyright a computer program. So they need to develop their own implementations without using any code from boss. That's why their digital clones are more like Homages rather than direct copies.
@@ot4kon I've got four amps, all with 'built in' digital reverb. Buying the Behringer DR600 was mainly because I wanted more immediate control of the effects. I'm a lazy bastard. I've got Donner pedals, because they're cheap. Being pedantic about effect pedals is a luxury. The amps have chromatic tuners and all the basic chorus/flanger/delay effects. I had a Marshall with spring reverb aound 1980, before TH-cam existed. Before a lot of things existed. People knock Zoom products, people knock Line 6 products. People knock any products concerning guitars, my Ukrainian's better. 😉
The heavy plastic case is usually in a pedal board. None of mine have failed....major brands HAVE. And if I need a weapon during a club fight, most guitarists know to use the VOX Wah Wah pedal. If you don't like them, don't buy them. WE know what we need.....Behringer, my custom pedals I build, and name brands are all together on one of my pedal boards....no worries.
