Value For Money : Excellent
It is a distortion of type "metal", using analog technology.
The distortion is paramtre thanks potentiomtres 6, 1 for the amount of distortion, one for the output level of the signal. The other four are for 3-band equalizer (1 knob for high frquences, one for low, 2 for medium).
The pedals connects between a standard jack (3.5'') and the same output.

I read that some find the color a bit tacky ... well, it is not got good trs, and I repaint my living room not as a, but the pedals is a effect ...
In terms of design, seems to me a strong enough ... The case is indeed plastic, but is not cheap or fragile.
For potentiomtres, it will do with time, if a does not deteriorate too much.

UTILIZATION

The config is really simple and intuitive.
Everything is described on the pedals, is that reading!
For those who choose to use a battery (9V), the Systm is not super convenient, especially if you fall during a concert in the bay (which does not happen if there is a minimum conscientious .. .).
The manual is clear, but a simple fact, no need to read it.

SOUND QUALITY

It is a metal distortion, so no crunch or overdrive lightweight warmth.
It is suitable for hard rock riffs (Deep Purple, Led Zep) or metal. It's nice on the solos.
The PDAL is transparent ByPass (unlike what I've read elsewhere), and the equalizer is effective trs. Within minutes I get a distorted russi trs own.
Also I would add that there is no breath ... I was on a jou disto Marshall 6 times the price that was a sound of hlicoptre.
I play a Peavey Studio Pro 112 amp, and rglant the basic sound as neutral as possible, I get really impressive sound, and that by not putting the knob gain than others.
Dja jou had a Boss and I must say that the sound is close trs, and in any case there is no sound as good on the Behringer.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought two days ago, and I jou all weekend with ...
Excellent. I use it for both solo (either with double or single microphone on my guitar) and for rhythmic rock. The sound is really clean, Dfine, distortion does not 'spit' it.
The ratio quality price is excellent.
I advice to beginners course, notament the metalheads who want to put a little more money in a good scratch team of good microphones double, they will not regret it ...
Although sr is deprecated those who seek a disto type, vintage and warm enough. It is a metal pedals, and trs is a good job.
It remains to see his life, but, only time will clear.
