Man, thank you for recording those Joyo reviews. I live in brasil and right now they're the most I can spend in pedals, so your reviews are incredibly useful.
Glad these are helpful!
Joyo pedals are good and they're really reliable
cara, tem o bass+ preamp da fuhrmann que é sai mais barato doq esse aí
Thanks! I have been waiting for this review!
That SansAmp grit is truly impressive. Something intangible about it that no other pedal seems to quite grasp. Other than that, yeah, the Joyo was great.
Nice! During the matched section, I actually preferred the Tidal Wave. Trigger pulled; shipping from China. Half the price of a used SABDIv2 plus a headphone out, which I will use often. No brainer!
Was just looking to get a good demo of the tidal wave, but also got some SYG in the demo. Win/win
Great video my dude, how this BDDI clone compares to the BDDI clone made by Behringer?
Thank you my friend , could you pls review of Joyo R-29 GLOAM Bass Octave Fuzz if possible. No one make it in youtube before . I bought a Monomyth after your review , too
Right on! Let me see what I can do.
I came here hoping to express a similar request!
I want to see your review soon with JoYo Gloam Bass Fuzz Octaver
yes, please!
I still can't decide beetween the Tidal Wave and the Monomyth. I just like both kinda tones. What's your recommendation?
One thing I really prefer at the Monomyth is the specific drive foot switch which isn't on the Tidal Wave.
Agreed, for the same money, the Zoom B one four (either flavor) is SO MUCH MORE pedal. Sure, it lacks an XLR, but passive direct boxes are CHEAP. Practice tool? Yes. Backup live rig? Yes. Main live rig? I can see using the Zoom as the whole rig
Would you recommend more the zoom b14 over a medium pedalboard with cheap pedals like this joyo
@@hombretostadasenpolvo it depends on what you’re looking for. For me, yes. For you, hard to say
The only reason I am thinking of building a board of cheap pedals, including a Joyo Uzi picked up over the weekend, is that 1) it's a bit of a hassle to toggle individual effects on the B1X Four with your feet and 2) the Zoom is limited to 5 effects. Some people on UA-cam have wired in an external box of switches that solves problem 1, so that might be worth checking out.
good review. Is it recommended for active bass?
you are in the Salt Lake City area right? Just moved to Layton and am looking for good venues and likeminded players. any suggestions?
My main pedalboard goes through the Sansamps V2, band is completely DI, but I want to have a backup to keep in the car when going to gigs in case something happens, which is doubtful since Sansamps are tanks, but I'd rather be prepared. Was debating grabbing this pedal at $89 or maybe just going with the cheaper Behringer for $40 and try to dial in the mids the best I can with just treble/bass controls. Either way, I'd probably get lazy and leave the backup on my practice amp so I don't have to go back and forth packing/unpacking my pedal board between band practices/gigs, so they'd get use throughout the week and I may even use the headphone jack on the Tidal Wave at times.
I also have a Zoom B1XFour, would it just be fine as a backup going directly to a mixer over the 1/4" jack?
Mate, can you please do a 'how to sound like' Lemmy video. It would be literally amazing. And l would like to know is there any place else, where l could get your patches fpr the zoom... Cos' l cannot access Patreon from where l live... (It would ne great, if you could tell the settings of every part of the patch in the video). Cheers, mate!
All knobs to 11, play the bass with pick like it owes you money
Thank you man! i was waiting for your review since it was announced in Joyo's page. Btw, does it have phantom power capabilities like the Sansamp? Thanks man!
That’s a great question! The manual doesn’t mention it, and it doesn’t seem to work from my interface’s phantom power unfortunately.
@@ampthebassplayerthanks for the info man!
What song is that part at the beginning from? The Bass Stuff person plays it in those test videos as well.
I probably subconsciously stole it from him tbh… 🤫
How does this sound compared to the sparrow pedal?
I bought the monomyth because of your reviews, thank you so much! Hmm this tidal wave is something I would consider soon. What are you additional takeaways after testing this? Have a good one!
Thanks so much! Glad I could help! I think the Tidal Wave. Maybe a bit less vintage sounding than the Sansamp, but definitely similar enough.
When Joyo makes an R-Series Chorus for bass, I will make a complete pedalboard with their bass pedals
Or a flanger. 🤤
What do you think is better, this one or the joyo monomyth as bass di?
Hi Bro, between Joyo Tidal Wave and the Joyo Monomyth, which Is better if you can get each one for the same price?
The manual says the Blend knob controls de cab simulation. Can you confirm that? The other functions are still effective when the Blend is totally off?
Blend mixes between dry and wet, but the EQ does affect the dry.
@@sparella oh, great. if the EQ affects dry, then the manual is correct. The blend knob activates the cab sim. great feature for when you don't want to DI.
@@ditorresyt Tech21 says the blend control mixes in the "SansAmp circuitry", but since Joyo can't use that trademark, they just wrote cab sim. The SA circuitry includes drive control, presence control, and the analog cab sim. But its equally accurate to call the cab sim a preamp voicing circuit, since it is the baked-in EQ curve that gives the design its signature scoop. I never had success using SABDDIv1 as a dirt box in front of an amp, and didnt plan on using the Tidal Wave in that way either.
Have you had any issues with the headphones jack not working? I just got mine, I've tried 2 different headphones, different cables checked the battery on my bass, still it doesn't seem to work. Just curious, if I'm the only one to experience this issue?
I didn't have much luck with headphones that also had a mic. More basic headphones might work better.
Anyone have an idea how good their customer service is? I'm still waiting for an email back from Paint Audio. I sent a support request 3 months ago.
I'm waiting for the Tonehammer Di Clone.
I heard they are gooped like the Agro pedal is, so you might be waiting a long time unless you are willing to contribute one to the cause. A clone won't happen until someone degoops and traces the circuit: No one made klones until after the centaur was degooped and traced at fsb.
@@sparella There is a man in Brazil, he cloned the Tonehammer DI. It sounds exactly like the original, but he makes them one at a time I guess and therefore it's not much cheaper.
@@buelow123 I don't suppose he decided to open source his schematic? Afaik, there has not yet been any instance of a Chinese company degooping and reverse engineering a pedal on their own and then releasing a competing product.
Any reason to consider this over a Behringer BDI21, which is 40% the cost?
Gread review by the way 👍
Build quality would be the big one. The Behringer unit is all plastic and I’ve heard stories of the footswitch being trash. This Joyo pedal is an all metal housing with a proper footswitch.
Thanks for replying. Even though it is all plastic, I have to disagree with you on the poor quality part. I play twice a week for a church band and the BDI21 has performed and held up well for the 1 year I’ve been using it, coupled with a Zoom B1x four. I think since I already have the BDI21, I’m going to holdout until I can afford a SansAmp.
They are different circuit versions so they have different controls. Tidal Wave has a mid control and selectable frequencies for bass and mid. V1 clones like Behringers have neither.
@@sparella Thanks for pointing that out. I'm wondering how this compares to the Caline Wine Cellar because I couldn't find any comparisons here on YT. I didn't realize the Caline was a V1 clone without the frequency switches.
But based on the sounds I've heard from demo videos, I think I'm still leaning towards the Caline for now
i cant find this on amazon
sounds farting in the bathtub vs biting into freshly toasted deli sandwich
😆
a simple hack for an aux in when a headphone out is available.. is to simply use a 1/8" splitter.
Lmao is that your partner in the background sometimes?
lol yeah. She lives here too! Might have to have her in a video in the future.
@@ampthebassplayer Lol, my partner gets in the background of my vids as well, as well as my cat. I'm just glad I'm not the only one lol
Bro these two pedals do not sound anything alike - not close. The Tidalwave also does not sound like the Behringer. Not hearing it.
