  • I've been asked about my opinion on some of the Behringer pedals. So I bought a bunch of them and compared them to the pedals they are clones of. What are your experiences with the Behringer pedals? Good, bad or indifferent, leave a comment.

    The Behringer compressor/sustainer sounds better than Boss to me

      Absolutely right my friend I find that behringers red compressor limiter is similar to the ibanez, but the behringer has a fuller low end that I enjoy more than the original, it’s sad to say but totally true from personal experience. Not all clones are built alike, but some are just wicked awesome.

    I appreciate you doing this shoot-out. I’ve got a few of the Behringer pedals but don’t have the Boss ones to compare. Your shoot-out shows me I shopped wisely-thanks! My only objection Is your conclusion of “don’t expect them to last if you use them a lot,” because your shoot-out doesn’t substantiate their durability. I’ve got a plastic Arion tuner pedal Ive used for 30 years or so and it never even occurred to me that “it’s plastic.” So, a truer statement of the Behringer pedals might be “If you don’t abuse them, you can expect good service from them for who-knows how long.”

    I think you did a great job comparing the pedals. It should be noted that differences in POTS/Knobs, even between pedals of the same manufacture can create variation. Its hard to do apples to apples at the very same knob settings, but in your case... its probably the only objective way to do it. Nice vid.

    • @liamgilmour3941
      @liamgilmour3941 Рік тому +2

      Yeah agreed, good comparison. More than just the pot tolerances though, all the caps/resistors etc will have tolerances which affects the output. Would be interesting if you repeated the test and tried to match the sounds of each as close as possible regardless of pot position for the ones which were less similar like the flanger. Granted issues like the LFO's being less smooth won't be similar regardless

    Perfect timing as my CS400 just came in the mail yesterday ($21) and I haven’t tried it yet. I don’t gig and play solely for my own enjoyment so I tend to buy clones because I can’t justify the cost, nor do I think I need to. I also have the following Behringer pedals: Noise Reducer (pretty good), Graphic Equalizer (really good), and Vintage Delay (pretty good though I rarely use delay). I have other inexpensive clones (Joyo, Caline, DemonFX, Moskey, Muslady, NuX, & Danelectro FAB [my least favorite of the cheap ones]). Only 2 cost me (slightly) more than $25 so I’ve been able to experiment with a wide variety of effects for a total layout of about $200. I appreciate videos like yours that highlight some less expensive gear and especially show side-by-side comparisons. Thanks!

      I've had a few cheap clones. Some have died on me. Others I sold.
      Nowadays I use a GT1B as my main processor and have a few others for more focused tones.
      Black russian muff, dual bass wah and dod fx 25. After owning 100 pedals I've settled on these.
      I definitely recommend a boss processor. They're definitely worth it. But when it comes to fuzz get a real big muff.

    Great comparison. If only the Berhinger had a better build quality (metal case, etc.) they would be more populat.
    What many do not know is that the Berhinger coproration is so big now that they develop and produce their own chip sets that they sell to other OEM manufacturers, too.
    Only where SW plays a huge role when using the same chip set other OEMs often spend more effort to make their devices that are based on Behringer chip sets sound better.

      Yes they are pretty sturdy for plastic. The only time I have worried about breaking them is if you try to put a battery in them. That whole maneuver is where the plastic seems like it could break, but batteries are optional.. If you treat the pedals even half as well as you would treat your other equipment you should be ok.

I have a Behringer Super Fuzz (Boss Hyper Fuzz clone) which is an insane octave fuzz (with an excellent boost option thrown in). But, as you say, Boss pedals are built like tanks while the Behringers are plastic. End of story. Your closing comments were spot-on, couldn't agree more. For those wanting to dip their toe into the water, it's a good place to start, but if you're a gigging musician, good luck with these things over time.

    A friend who plays doom can't seem to find a FZ-2 for a normal price. I tipped him to get the SF300 and he's being using that ever since. In fact I gifted it him for a whopping 27 eur including shipping. He plays in a small band and is very very uncareful with his gear. So for me if it survives his abuse they are fine. He literally stomps the pedal a few time per week during songs in rehearsals and during live.
    For me the downside of the plastic enclosure is maybe a more realistic concern (I don't care about the material really) in terms of noise blocking. You don't get any shielding with a plastic enclosure since it is not grounded. You'd think EMI would be a problem but no so far they are fine.
    And the switch they use internally is pretty small. Just a tiny pcb mount switch. But the way they implemented the rubber cq foam stud that just physically compress to absorb overpressure. Kind of smart for a cheap pedal. If it ever would fail I'd just solder in a new simple footswitch.

    My guitar effects pedal board has a mix of pedals from several makers - including Boss, Behringer - and I've never found the plastic cases to be any problem whatsoever, nor had any issues with reliability which might have caused me to lack confidence in them for gigging. And as far as them being 'made in China' is concerned, isn't that where everything which is decent is made these days?
    Sometimes I swap pedals in and out of the mix on my pedal board, but there are two pedals which always stay on there, and both of them are Behringer: One is their EQ, which to be fair is nothing special really and could be replaced by an EQ from a different maker, but since it does the job, it stays there, the other however, is one I would not be without, and that is the Behringer US600 Ultra Shifter/Harmonist, which is great. At the time I bought it, I think it was one of Behringer's more expensive pedals in their range, but it was still cheap, these days however, since it is discontinued, used ones go for around about £100 on Ebay. The fact that an old, used Behringer pedal goes for approximately three times what it used to cost new when you could get hold of them tells you all you need to know about why that one stays on my board.
    Now in fairness to Boss, there is one of their pedals which stays on my board too, and that's their Tremelo/Pan, because that thing is great.
    So the idea of them 'never being able to be cool' is preposterous; cool is not a logo, it's an attitude and it's in your sound when you play and the things you can do with the gear you have, regardless of who makes it. Anyone who would honestly think cool was about a logo on the headstock of their guitar, or on the front of their amp, or on their effects rack (like anyone could see that at a gig anyway), is automatically not cool, because they think like that instead of having the confidence to do their own thing and make their own choices, regardless of what anyone else thinks.
    Now, having said all that, I have had one Behringer product which was faulty on arrival because of poor build quiality and so had to be replaced (it was one of their Swing MIDI controller keyboards), so they are not perfect every time, but then again, I've got one of their ARP Odyssey synth clones; that thing is built like a tank and is in fact better than the original ARP Odyssey, because they added a sequencer to it. I've also got one of their Vocal processing FX racks, and that thing is great too, it's pretty old nowadays but still works perfectly.

    It would be interesting to do a comparison of two of the same Boss pedals, perhaps manufactured a year or two apart, it would not surprise me if there are equal differences between them as there was between some of the comparisons you did. They may be plastic cases, byut they are very durable plastic cases. Having dismantled a number of ‘professional’ quality pedals, many that appear to have proper foot metal switches are no more than a sprung loaded metal shaft, pressing on a surface mounted cheap and nasty tactile switch.

    I actually thought the overdive from Behringer sounded better..a little more definition in the mids.
    The Falnger was horrible indeed..it sounded to me like it couldn't handle a low input at the end of the sweep, maybe it could with a boost before it.

  • @FromWitchSide
    @FromWitchSide 4 місяці тому

    From my experience Behringers tend to be slightly darker possibly due to their buffer, and this can work for or against them depending on the specific effect (for example I think it helps with a lot of their heavy/metal distortions). If it seems the other way, where they have more tone it usually is just due to knob positions not necessarily corresponding to each other, but generally difference in components, even if they have the same spec, can be there as well. One thing to keep in mind about the effects used in the video though - Boss CH-1 Super Chorus had big silent revision from analog to digital, but Behringer UC100 is the analog variant. If I recall it right CH-1 made after october 2001 are digital, that was found out only around 2010-2012 - nobody really heard the difference for a decade :P

    The overdrives were almost spot on...the modulations were different and not as smooth; I have the cc300 and cd400 (Boss dc2 and dc3 clones, which I have too) and they're great even tho being still a bit different. I also have the vintage delay that I dislike, and the dr600 (clone of the Boss rv3 that I had and sold because the Behringer is actually better). Other Behringer that I tried and really liked are the ph9 (phase 90 but more subtle) and vintage phaser (small stone). Good video BTW.

  • @TheWolvesCurse
    @TheWolvesCurse 9 місяців тому +1

    just my two cents as someone working with electronics: it doesn't make much sense setting the pots to the same visual setting to compare two pieces of gear. you could have two boss blues drivers set the same way and they'd sound slightly differently due to tolerances in the manufacture of the components. instead of asking "will it sound the same at the same visual setting" try asking" is it possible with the given dials to make these sound equal?". we've seen a digitech bad monkey can be made to sound like a klon centaur, so that's the value in this, in my opinion at least.

    • @JasonAyalaSpare
      @JasonAyalaSpare  9 місяців тому

      I don't like doing it, but that's the standard when comparing pedals. If you don't set them the same, you get accused of bias. I've tried to explain several times that not all pedals are the same, for example the volume on a blues Breaker needs to be run up at 3:00, while on a
      Klon style overdrive the same volume can be achieved at around 9:00.

    • @theuselessdrunk
      @theuselessdrunk Рік тому

      IN THEORY the um300 was sold as the most high gain from the metal line. but in reality it doesn't deliver. i can't explain it in words but i tested it against other cheap hi gain pedals (metal zone, digitech DF7, DOD death metal, MXT D+) and it saounds like shit. the XD300 was a clone for the digitech xseries and it's much better accomplished. the other is an alternative to a boss ds2. it's not good for the sound of modern metal. but for vintage metal it's ok.

    Nice video, and great job. I have some Behringer pedals and I can sure that they are enough though how to resist a normal use. Unless you jump over your pedals, then they couldn't be the best option. They are good, and I've looking for some models like Super Fuzz and Vintage Delay. Also I've looking for the "Machine" series pedals but they are rare and I've only find the echo machine and Reverb Machine. Those pedals are now collector items.

    BD-2 has more presence to me. TS is just the same. CS can' t tell any difference. Chorus, you can definitely hear the Behringer had more depth, though on same dial settings. Tremolo, again Behringer had more depth and even rate is faster on the same dial. The tone difference is negligible.
