"Is it any good?!" I would say absolutely! I loved the vintage pedal and hearing these pedals layered with other ones brings so many songs to mind...I'm dying to hear what a synth pedal sounds like...next video pls 😏
Could seem weak due their plastic enclosure, but I can say that they can resist a regular use with no issue, unless you use to activate your pedals jumping over them, then maybe this don't be your kind of pedals. I recomend you try the Ultra Vibrato UV300, some Behringer pedals has become collectible like the Reverb Machine and Echo Machine, if you have the opportunity of get one, don't doubt about it. I just bought an used Ultra Tremolo/Pan TP300.
Hi George. I have the fx600 and it was better than i expected it to be. It's an affordable way to find out which modulation effects one might like. If the Behringer cases really bother anyone, TC electronics are owned by the same people. They make metal cases for a little bit more money.
I wanted to experiment with a phaser pedal, an effect I rarely use, to see if it was worth splashing out on a MXR or something more expensive. I'd read a lot of good things about the Vintage Phaser VP1 so I bought one with the idea that if it wasn't very good I haven't lost much money. I was really pleasantly with it. I totally agree with what the video says about the build quality, for the price it's a very sturdy metal unit. The nice thing about the actual effect is that it provides some very usable sounds, some low end effects can be too over the top but this unit can give you some subtle tones if you want them. Of course, you can go to the extreme if you so wish. I'm so pleased with the VP1 that I don't have any immediate plans to upgrade and it sits quite nicely with more expensive effects on my pedalboard.
@@guitar_george Yes, the biggest problem with the pedal is the stigma of buying a Behringer. If you can get over that you can get a lot of pedal for very little money.
"I can't stop buying pedals"..... I feel your pain, I'm in the same place right now. Thanks for this review. I was contemplating this pedal but needed to research. Very helpful. 🎸🎸🎸
The VP1 sounds like I expect a phaser to sound (not all of them do). Having passed that test, I have three questions: 1) Do you hear a pop when the switch is operated? 2) Does the noise floor become much more noticeable when the effect is switched on? 3) Does the effect bleed through when it's switched off (i.e., can you still hear the phasing, very quietly, in the background)?
Great questions! Just did some testing for you now and I didn't find any of those to be an issue. My biggest problem with it is the pedal is very large for what it is. If you have the room on your board it's a great phaser otherwise
I never heard anyone complain about the Ibanez plastic pedals back in the day. To damage these you'd have to be some kind of idiot, but then again a bad workman usually blames his tools. Nothing wrong with the Behringer range it seems to be snobbery on price and labels.
It seems like it. I have a Skysurfer Reverb (by TC Electronics) that seems like a similar build (to the VP-1) and I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that TC Electr. had upgraded Behringer pedals (at some point not too long ago - from plastic boxes, etc.) and the Skysurfer, which BTW sounds great, was one of the results. Again, it is the heavier built box (like the VP-1 Phaser), etc. Neat stuff and I definitely don't mind saving $100 (or more) on a pedal that sounds and behaves just as well as the better known high end ones. :-)
Well no, but I think the mxr is the most famous and recognizable so it's the easiest to compare it to. They are also similar in design (one knob). I got a video coming out today at 3 with Brian Wampler. Make sure to check it out if you're interested!
After reading the booklet, I can use it better now 😂 but it's still not a great pitch shifter. You're right though, can't go wrong with all the other good stuff you get for $35!
Funny you say that, he just had it set wrong. He admitted he doesn't know what to do with a pitch shifter. I got it to make a great Chuck Schuldiner tone. The FX600 is great for the money, but some of the effects kinda suck. The delay sucks because it won't go slow enough. The flanger needs a hi-cut filter, and the phaser sounds wonky. The chorus is great, the tremolo is good, and I think the pitch-shifter is actually good, if you know how to set it. So for $37.... it's a bargain. Plastic case doesn't bother me. I'm not going to gig with it.

![Multi Effect Pedal UNDER 25€?? [SOUND TEST] - Behringer FX600](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/MgxZyvj9-OM/mqdefault.jpg)
I have 8 Behringer effects and the two you are reviewing and they are amazing for the money and have very solid plastic casings.
Thanks for this. I think you've pointed me in the right direction.
I'm happy to help! Not the best effects pedals around but for the price you can't beat em
"Is it any good?!" I would say absolutely! I loved the vintage pedal and hearing these pedals layered with other ones brings so many songs to mind...I'm dying to hear what a synth pedal sounds like...next video pls 😏
i love me a synth pedal!
You could also use this phase shifter pedal on synths too if you're into that JMJ string sound
Very informative appreciate the content brother keep it going
thanks brother

Thanks for the tips! I'll look into those
Reverb Machine/Echo Machine and Tremolo/Pan Super Phase Shifter and Flanger Machine are amazing as is the Super Vibrato
So many good ones from behringer indeed. Can't go wrong for the price
I agree they withstand fine. The jack on my boss chorus broke almost instantly but after using it for 2 years my behringer tuner still works like new
The Vintage Phaser is an EHX Small Stone clone. It does a great job.
They sound great, I had two for over ten years, were always reliable, no problems!
So far, so good!

I saw it as a phaser that I would replace as well... But I like it too much!

@@JC.77776 thanks! Appreciate you my fellow pedal addict
Sweet review, thanks. I ordered the Behringer VP1 before the video even ended. $30?!?! 🥳
its a crazy value!
I've been stepping on my "plastic" chorus pedal for years and it hasn't given me any problems.
The VP1 sounds like I expect a phaser to sound (not all of them do). Having passed that test, I have three questions: 1) Do you hear a pop when the switch is operated? 2) Does the noise floor become much more noticeable when the effect is switched on? 3) Does the effect bleed through when it's switched off (i.e., can you still hear the phasing, very quietly, in the background)?

@@guitar_george Thanks for taking the time to check this and reply.
No problem. Thanks for watching!

Small Stone Clone.
I like the volume drop when engaged..
Always on my pedalboard

Very cool! I'm getting one!
Definitely worth it for the price!
Hi. Is the Behringer vintage Phaser similar to a Small Stone Phaser? Thanks
I haven't played the small stone. The Behringer is great for the price though
Yes, it is based on the EHX Small Stone.
Very good review; smooth playing too!
thanks!
Hey Guitar George, do you know all the chords?
Only I get it 😂
Lovely presentation dude.
Much appreciated 🙏
The.phaser works for me using a sss Strat really well.
Hi.does this phaser pedal soinds good with a distortion pedal? Thanks
What a cool pedal !!!
Thanks! Pedals can add lots of cool sounds
there's an MXR phaser in every Behringer Vintage Phaser video, are those the only two on the market in 2021? ;-)
Well no, but I think the mxr is the most famous and recognizable so it's the easiest to compare it to. They are also similar in design (one knob). I got a video coming out today at 3 with Brian Wampler. Make sure to check it out if you're interested!
What is price
Vintage phaser ka
@@ranipriya7122 about €29 from thomann
Huge Chinese company, low-cost labour, and immense volumes means Behringer can produce equivalent equipment for much much less.
Hello. Is the pedal body metal?
The vintage phaser seems to be cased in metal. The fx600 is made of plastic
Your problem was that you didn't complicate it enough, should have +9, +11, +13, +17, +19 at least.
that pitch shift was terrible... but man, you still gotta love it for $35...
After reading the booklet, I can use it better now 😂 but it's still not a great pitch shifter. You're right though, can't go wrong with all the other good stuff you get for $35!

The FX600 is great for the money, but some of the effects kinda suck. The delay sucks because it won't go slow enough. The flanger needs a hi-cut filter, and the phaser sounds wonky. The chorus is great, the tremolo is good, and I think the pitch-shifter is actually good, if you know how to set it. So for $37.... it's a bargain. Plastic case doesn't bother me.

One of the best parts about getting a new pedal for me is learning how to dial it in!

@@guitar_george I think so. It will be very welcome at my band practice. Can't wait.
