Tempting?

Post by Jesse »

I know that these Berhinger things have been ripped to shreds, but really, for this price... it's tempting for this pedal. Y'know, just to try it out!

Honestly don't touch it. I bought they actually decent blues driver copy and on a whim bought the delay pedal too. That thing sounds pretty horrible.

Dano pedals are the only cheap pedals you should buy. Behringer is shit.

Best description I've heard is they take good stuff, copy it, and remove the magic. Though I've heard the TR100 is better than Boss' tremelo pedal.

+1, but i'm starting to think this company arion might be worth a look. i got a decent phaser for $20 new. if they've got anything else with a good sound, they may have to be added to that list.

Arion is quite decent actually. I've got the old SAD-1 pedal and it's pretty good compared with some of the best analog delays.

their chorus is good but the bypass mixes in the chorus anyway and sucks the clean tone

i just bought a behringer preamp and it's fucked straight outta the box. going back to the shop. and hence a working christmas present for donk still hasn't arrived.
everything is not going to be alright

I've got an Arion octaver which is pretty decent too, construction aside.

Everybody says it's really sweet. I heard a guy's recording from like the Valve Jr. forum and he lined out from just the pedal and it still sounded good!

Tubulator = Tubescreamer.

Well cool for that price though. Apparently Daphon also make excellent copy pedals - keep an eye out.
