The demo gear in this video is all run through Practical Patch cables, including instrument cables and patch cables. These are using some top-quality components, including Neutrik jacks and Van Damme cable and are hand-assembled and tested in the UK. After having off-the-shelf cables for years and suffering failures again and again, I bought some Practical Patch cables and have been happier than ever with them. They also don’t cost you the Earth, which some other hand made cable companies seem to do. If you want to find out more, head over to www.practicalpatch.co.uk to see what they have to offer.

One thing: you should have opened the pedal. Inside there are two dipswitches, one for more gain/less output v.v, the other one works with the trimpot, shifting the mid/high range.
This is a very nice pedal for a ridiculous price. I'm a professional guitarplayer for over 40 years, I had and have lots of stuff, both expensive and affordable, but I still am amazed about how much good stuff you can buy for little money nowadays. Lately I use a Mosky Golden Horse (wich you can buy online for under $25) as a treblebooster on my main board, that consists of mostly more expensive pedals. It's one of the many Klon-clones and it works great. I got me two, because the Silver Horse somehow went dead, probably because of a problem with the power supply. I also have a "affordaboard" that I use for jams, rehearsals, as a spare etc. with only a couple of affordable (what else...? 😄 ) pedals, but I think I'll get me this Mosky SOL918. No patch cables and no Pedaltrain needed. 😉
Yeah, this is an ideal thing to bring along for open mic nights. I didn't know about the internal trim pots, that just adds another layer of versatility to an already useful bit of kit 👍
Yes mate. Thanks for this quick demo. I'm currently just looking for a cheap little box for Delay and Reverb for my Electro Acoustic and after browsing online there seems to be an infinate number of really cheap options and I've been going crazy over the last week or so struggling to make any kind of decission but after this demo I think I'm gonna purchace this one. Thumbs up my mate.
Yeah, it'll do that and some 👍 let me know if it works well for you
@@BudgetPedalChap Will do dude thank you
I really like that od circuit. It's a very nice compact multi pedal, I could see it being very good for a fly rig
Yeah, ideal for an open mic night or a pedal board you need to have on hand luggage.
i bought one of these i think 2 or 3 weeks ago, i really like the DS the most, if you crank the Reverb high enough you'll gonna have a nice ambience, worth the money specially i combined it with cuvave as a pre-amp it was very powerful
Yeah it does have possibility for some ambience with that verb huh? It's a nice solid unit that doesn't cost a lot, it's a win for me 👍
@@BudgetPedalChap big W
@@errorsofnovember6068can you explain to me why you used cuvave as a preamp and whats the benefit of using it
Great job as always 👏🏻
Gracias! It did a much better job than I expected and it's so well priced too
These are really cool, I almost bought one but went in a different direction instead, maybe in the future I might. Nice demo!
Yeah, I was really pleasantly surprised with how good this was. It is a really convenient solution for compact gigs
@@BudgetPedalChap I just picked up a Mosky Ch-Vibe, it's a really decent sounding "uni-vibe" style pedal for a really inexpensive pricetag, if you get a chance, check it out
Not a bad little budget pedalboard rig!
Exactly that huh? So convenient
Now this is my good to go rig. Affordable & lighter 😀. Awesome video @BudgetPedalChap 👍🏻
I could see it doing a great job for that. Thanks for your kind words 👍
Sounds fantastic and for the price you can't get more :)
Even if you were to buy the cheapest version of each of those effects, you'd be hard pressed to get a delay, verb, dist and od for less 👍
It is a very versatile pedal.
Not bad for a budget fly rig! Not a fan of the delay sound personally, but that's me!
With the loop, you could put in any delay you want. For £45 it's easy to forgive it

@@gilbertsevdays cheers for that 👍
Fuck that sounds good for the price. Ive been looking at reviews for similar units. This one SOUNDS analogue. Is it? I'm just guessing by the smooth sound. The digital ones sound digital and will probsably cause ear fatigue but this one sounds NICE! I don't know if it's just because your guitar sounds good to begin with.
Yeah, the verb and delay are digital but the rest are analogue as far as I can tell. It felt really good to play and was rather impressive for such an affordable unit 👍 You're right though, my guitar sounds ace 😂😂😉
Thank you for checking this beast out
No problem at all. Thanks for watching 👍
When you compare this to the Zoom 505 I got when I first started playing, it's just in a different league!
Absolutely. It's easy to forget how far we have come since those days
Yep the zoom 505 was my first pedal also. Loved it and had my full set programmed into it. Unfortunately it was stolen from me when I quit playing for years.
I think this would pair nicely with a Joyo American Sound plugged into the FX loop.
I think you're probably right 👍
I bought both models as they are great.
I didn't know they did smoother, thanks for letting me know 👍
Does the overdrive boost the volume of the distortion setting for soloing?
Yeah, you can use it that way 👍
Thanks 👍🎸
I would invert the OD and DS order. Otherwise it seems like good stuff for travellers (last summer I set up a budget, simple board with OD -> DS -> EQ -> IR loader and it already takes up more floor space at twice the cost).
Yeah that was my initial thought too. Having a toggle switch for FX order would be great, but it's so inexpensive, it's easy to overlook this missing feature.
I agree with you regarding the order of the drivers (I would also prefer the distortion after the overdrive), but nothing prevents you from putting an overdrive pedal before the distortion of this multi-pedal. For those who see the need for this, the solution is very simple.
@@andrebreder666 oh yeah, absolutely. It's a really great and simple solution with a fantastic price point
@@BudgetPedalChap Yes. I bought one of this multi-pedal from Mosky last month, after watching your video. My pedalboard is a little big (it has 21 pedals) but the basic effects that I use frequently are exactly those available on the Sol918, so it is a very cheap spare for my pedalboard. And the Fx Loop option is great for me to place modulation effects between the overdrive and the delay, if I need it, as well as the possibility of placing any pedal before the input or even after its output. It is within its price range, one of the best multi-effects pedals I see on the market, due to all the usage options it allows.
what guitar and amp that u used in video?
Guitar is a Variax, but only using the magnetic pickups. Essentially it's like a mid level Yamaha Pacifica.
The amp is a fender model on the HX stomp 👍
Try to pair it with the Cubebaby and Joyo American Sound! 😁
Would prefer chorus to the reverb.
Sonicake has something similar that has chorus instead. I think it's called the black hammer or something similar
Mosky also have one, it's called mosky dc5. Its got a od, ds, chorus, and delay
Do these sound compressed? Or are they good? I know they are cheap, but do they sound cheap?
They sound surprisingly good tbf, the distortion is maybe the least refined bit but all in it's worth what they are asking 👍
why the distortion level was sensitive when increasing the volume?
Level and gain are linked in most pedals. The more gain, the more compressed your tone gets and so you might have to adjust the level to compensate
@@BudgetPedalChap but i'm stuck to minimum volume due to the hiss of the distortion patch. do i need a noise gate pedal?
Looks similar to Ammoon Pockmon.
I've not tried that one. It wouldn't surprise me if they were the same though 👍
Can I use the drum rhythm in it?
To add FX to the drums? You could I would think, I'm not sure it's the best use for it though
Me estoy convenciendo por este pedal pero tengo duda de la distorsión y el overdrive, Es q busco q el overdrive este ligero y el distorsión mas pesado si suenan asi los dos??
They sound good. Even if you're not convinced, it has an fx loop so you can add any other drive you want 👍
Do I need to connect cables with loop send and return and can record loop? And if I need how to connect it ? Thanks
It's an fx loop, not a looper. You can add other pedals between the drives and other FX 👍
@BudgetPedalChap oh I just understand bypass fx loop . looper kinda fun so, I need to buy looper pedal and include it with this mosky too better than buy many separate pedals as beginners focus in few first then see what kind of music you like to go for more pedals
Please can I ask...What does the adaptor look like? I need to know please
Standard 9v barrel jack like most pedals
@@BudgetPedalChap Thanks Man I'm new to the all of this
@reeseadenmeana8216 oh cool, welcome to the world of guitar pedals. Feel free to ask anything 👍
What is the signal chain? First OD or first DS?
The signal chain goes from right to key, so OD first, then Dist, FX loop, delay then reverb 👍
@@BudgetPedalChap thanks.. great.. 👍👍
Are you just going guitar in and out to the input of the amp?
Yeah pretty sure that's how I did it with this one 👍
@@BudgetPedalChap thanks, I just tried that on two amps and this thing sounds really good! I use a Boss GX100 as my main rig but wanted something small enough to throw in my gig bag to drive my tube amp at practice. I may be selling that GX!
@@rtroiani aye it's a real nice sounding unit and so convenient
Ahh just missed it
It doesn't take me long 😂😂😂 or so I'm told
@@BudgetPedalChap you're a professional. Ha!
drive is more of a boost od effect it seems..
Yeah it's based on the king of tone, I imagine on the boost setting. There is a little grit there, but the main drive comes from that distortion mode
And no chorus..
It does have an fx loop, so if you wanted to add chorus, you could do so.
Stoopid work conference calls
Gotta earn that bread, I mean how else can we fund that pedal habit huh? 😂😂
Pareció que escuche en el comienzo la intro de sólido Iván Moya 🤭
@@AlfonsoGonzalez-tf4pr maybe 👍😂😂
Just wanted to see how the delay goes, yep, full 100% feedback is there. That's all I needed to know.
Gotta say though, very surprised at the tones coming out of it, very useable.
Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised by this one too 👍
