    99.9% of the audience at a show wouldn't notice a difference between them. And honestly, they're VERY close.

      Yeah, because everyone actually stomps on pedals instead of pressing them with your foot. And because the Behringer is made of this really brittle plastic that will break if you breathe on it, you don't dare do anything other than lightly feather it in fear of it shattering to dust. STFU.

      @@Axess-sv8nq Of course most people don't actually stomp on them, but they're called "stomp boxes". Don't be a nit-picking buffoon. Don't sleep, Behringer pedals are so cheap and flimsy that even just pressing on them will flex the PCB. It's only a matter of time until they fail. If you respect your live performance at all, DON'T use Behringer pedals live.

    Harmonically they also sound ever so slightly different. Metal Zone slightly more square, which makes it slightly more harsh and thick.
    The Ultra Metal seems slightly more triangle, which makes it slightly more smooth and thin.

  • @springbloom5940
    @springbloom5940 Před 2 lety +4

    Behringer cheaps out on the EQ circuits. The BOSS pedals use active EQ controls, where Behringer uses passive tone controls. For those unfamiliar basically, a passive control 'cuts' and active 'boosts'. That is, when you roll it from high to low, a passive tone control cuts out the high frequencies. With an active control it leaves the highs alone and adds lows.

    • @tauvholiik7936
      @tauvholiik7936 Před 3 lety +2

      Not true. However, one must know how to chain and adjust them into a pedal board and dial in its "one trick pony" as they say. It's just that some pedals are easier to tweak than others. I extensively use both the DOD and Digitech Death Metal Pedals to which I have two noise suppressors (Boss & Behringer) and feed them into the Mooer GE150 or even to my older Digitech RP20, RP12 or GFX1 Twin Tube, then stereo out into two Mooer Radar cab impulse responses. I also mix between 2 to 6 reamp channels for sculpting killer new guitar tones not heard before. I also use a Rocktron Blackjack & Tsunami with a springverb and mooer radar pedal board and a Roland VG88. I easily mix volume levels with either foot pedals or with an Akai APC40 with Ableton Live. For any other pedals I do not have, I will use sims as a final layer of which I prefer the sim on my phone to which I have bought a duplicate with antennas turned off except wifi and use Tonebridge. I prefer even the worst physical pedals over most sims as I cannot get extreme distortions that actually sound good enough as standalone or within the mix of a song. I recommend to anyone to try different setups that include and combine both old gear and new. You will be pleassntly surprised to discover new guitar tones that will fit the songs you are producing that indeed fit the mixdown.
