I listened carefully the test of this pedal, made by Mike Hermans and Brett Kingman, and there was no audible loss of power ! Your pedal is obviously defective. It is strange that you were unable to admit it (for an honest reviewer...) 😉

I bought the Atrospurt after your review. I like it, it sounds slightly bell-like and rather embellished if not completely neutral. Very nice sounding, and the EMPH control has a lo-fi effect, nice to have -all imo. Thank you.

m134 is pseudo stereo, not true. it inverts the processed signal to one side, so if/when the track is played on a mono system, the chorus effect is completely muted & you're left with only the dry signal. m234 is dry/wet, so you get one side processed & the other direct. just throwing this out there for others to see.

I am looking for a Freeze pedal and the Line 6 One has that effect but I caanot find a comparison with the EHX freeze. If it is as good as the EHX I would go for the Line 6 since it has much more effects. Do you have a Line6 Hx pedal to compare it? Thanks
@valhalla7975 күн бұрын
satisfaction is cool but its too situational. the tone isnt strong enough and it sounds like a hi pass filter is cutting the lows and mids, like a fuzz going to a telephone eq. you might as well just use an eq and run it after your fuzz and just zero everything to left
@baremetaltechtv6 күн бұрын
these honeytone can have great sound, sometimes you need to dial in the guitar as well, switch from neck to bridge or middle pickup, blend between them with the tone knob, between that and the controls on the amp you can find some good sounds. for what it is, a 20 dollar amp, its amazing if you got nothing else. The next step up, that I would consider anyways, is a spark go amp @ 120$ Which is a big step in quality, but also a big step in price.

@Bleats_Sinodai11 күн бұрын
I genuinely think that if they just put a speaker out for all mini amps, they'd become 100x more useful. Why do manufacturers refuse to do it? I've modded both a Honeytone and a MD-20 with such an output and both sounded a lot better. Changing the speaker for something that can handle more power than the amp puts out also helps a ton with the sound, especially cleans.

The switch on the silver actually toggles clipping modes, one mode is Germanium diode clipping and the other is LED clipping. It's a little annoying to get the volume drop/jump but nobody is going to bend down and flick that toggle mid-song so it should be fine. I like them both for different uses and having both in your board is great if you need a rhythm and lead option should you happen to have a single channel amp or if you just want 2 very different kinds of boost 🤘

Great video! I appreciate the comparison as well as your excellent playing. 2 notes from me: 1. Satisfaction is based off of the Rolling Stones/Keith Richards sound from that song. Just mentioning that since I haven't heard you say it so far. I agree, it really doesn't fit with this line up. Back then, fuzz pedals were marketed to make your guitar sounds like a trumpet 😅 2. The reason the Flat Iron sounds muffled as you turn up the Filter control use because Rats use a low pass filter instead of a typical tone control. This REMOVES high end as your turn it up. If you want greater clarity, you'll actually want to turn that knob down. Great video! This changed my mind from considering purchasing the Green Russian. Now I'm leaning more towards the Op Amp. 🤘

From what I understand BBD circuit design is challenging. Longer delay times introduce artifacts like aliasing, noise, and clock bleed which require increased filtering, companding, and other tricks. This is why each algorithm on the DM-101 has a tailored delay time range. Typically, shorter delay times will be brighter and longer delay times will be darker.

your example with only short notes in a low to medium register is not the best to make such a shootout. As a bass player i used the OC-2 for over 30 years. I never expected the sound ttwo octaves below to track well. the A is 55Hz. 1 octave below is 27.5 Hz two octaves below is 13.75 Hz outside human hearing. And you expect good tracking in that range??? Makes no sense to me. When i use two octaves below i play 2 octaves higher and it tracks really good. Problem solved.

Interesting how subtle the Vahlbruch is! The Phase 95 has more classic tones in there for sure. Have you tried the Wombtone mkII? That might tick your boxes for a 2/4/6 stage phaser and then some .. but a classic Phase 90 still rivals them all.
