    I have the Joyo. I thought I recognized it and was right. I also felt the UA was a greater refined sounding product. I think there;s reverb and things going on in the feature set of the UA. You've done a great job dialing in a surprisingly good pedal in the Joyo, but I'd wager there are things the UA can do that the Joyo cannot.

    When you played clean channel, A sounded brighter, and B sounded smoother. I didn’t discern much of a difference on overdrive and spaced on the fuzz. Preference may be more taste-I liked the brighter sound of A and so maybe the expensive, although it makes sense for smooth to be more expensive, but maybe the cheap one is B?

    @@dar8837 you have no idea what I'm talking about, and that's okay lol you could have just asked... Look into circuit design, and resistors filtering gain staging, and maybe you'll know what I'm talking about! You'll also need to realize that UA utilizes high end DSP *heavily* in their audio processing designs, so naturally they'll result in what could be defined as a more full range frequency response in their pedals. Unless you were just looking for attention on the Internet. 👍

    If A is just for messing around in your room, you can't go wrong with it. If you need a serious pedal with specific capabilities, the ampbox seems to be worth the extra dollars. I think B sounded better on my studio monitors, but that could come down to any number of factors in the recording chain.
