Behringer TUBE AMP MODELER TM300 Ultimate Tube Amp Modeling Instrument Effects Pedal, Teal

Behringer, like many other pedal makers out there, makes clones of other pedals. The difference is that Behringer isn't a greedy and doesn't as much or more than the original pedal. Most of Behringer's pedals are modeled on BOSS pedals and you can't go wrong with that! This one is a quality Octave pedal and like with any good pedal, if you can't get great tone out of it the problem is with you. This is a full size (think BOSS) pedal. Some are overly critical of the plastic housing, but it's a solid housing and I can't imagine what you're have to do with it to break it. Speaking of which, have you ever seen a picture of a Behringer pedal with a broken housing? Me Neither. This is the most versitile Octaver I've found andI couldn't be happier!

So far so good. For the price it’s a good tuner

One of my first guitar pedals, I was drawn to the idea I could have a sample platter of effects in one pedal. To that end, it does deliver. Do note it *does NOT come with a power connection*. You have to supply either a 9v battery or 9v power connection. The battery compartment is a bit of a pain to access, and the plastic dowels that hold the battery cover in place feel really cheap.The body is in a no frills plastic casing. I'd be wary of using this as a literal stomp box. I personally engage with it with my hands on a table. The knobs are a little loose for my liking. I do have concerns using it for traveling purposes but it's fine for home use. With all that said, this is one of my favorite pedals to chain with. It's one of those things where it doesn't excel in one thing but makes up for it by offering me multiple dynamic options. It trades individual depth control for intensity and duration. When chaining with other pedals, it's great.I would recommend this for new electric guitar players dipping their toes into the world of effects pedals. I wouldn't pay north of $40USD though, but if the budget is tight this isn't too bad a choice. Again, with the understanding this is a budget built item.

Awesome 👍😎

I was quite hopeful about this replacement for my dead Cry Baby pedal. I like the idea of the dual power source and the auto pedal return. There are tons of great reviews. Seemed like a sure thing.Wrong. While the pedal build quality was generally great, the battery compartment and installation was ridiculous - tricky to mount the battery in the housing lid, and it fell out easily.The real deal breaker, however, was how incredibly noisy the pedal was. Pedal movement was good and the auto return spring felt great to use, BUT the circuit switching off and on every time the pedal went all the way to heel down position was extremely noisy, with cracks and pops and cutting off the sound altogether for a split second. It was horrible. The whole point to an optical wah pedal is being quieter. This isn't.I tried positioning my foot to avoid the full heel down position, but that just made it harder to use the pedal to get any usable effect. It might work better if there was a resistive threshold that warned you of getting too close to the off position and made it enough harder to go full heel down. Maybe.In the end, it was just too finicky for me. Also, it would not let you use the pedal as a fixed bandpass filter by leaving the pedal part way throught the range of movement.While the hardware on-off pushbutton seems like extra work, the switching noise from this pedal makes it completely unusable for me. I am going back to a pedal that has a hard on-off switch and retains a mechanical pot on a gear. Yeah, it may wear out and have other issues, but I am not a working mucisian and I don't wear out gear very often.I generally love Behringer gear, but this is a serious fail in my opinion. I returned it.

I picked this up as a replacement for a stolen Crybaby, being a guitarist on a budget, the price appealed to me. I did my research, read reviews and watched youtube videos on the Hellbabe, and was convinced to try it. For 40 bucks, how could I go wrong ?It's not a bad pedal, not at all. It does what it says it does, but it's not without flaws. For example, the pedal itself does not have much range. The overall tone of the Hellbabe is fine, but the limited range of motion on the pedal itself severely limits your "sweep". There are mods that can be done which are beyond the scope of my review but if you Google "Behringer Hellbabe mods" you can find a few things you can do to improve the pedals range of motion and overall tone as well. I will probably try them, as really the only thing stopping me from giving this pedal more stars is these issues.The fact that you can dial in the frequency range is a nice touch, and for that alone this pedal is worth the price of admission. I also dig the fact that you can really fine tune the frequency response of the wah with the "Q" and the "Fine Tune" knobs. This gives you more control over the tone than your typical wah. The boost is kind of useless though, I do not notice much increase in volume even with the boost dialed all the way up. BUT, since I get my lead boost from a TS9 Tubescreamer, I can't really say that this is a problem for me. I didn't buy it for the boost feature, so I'm not upset that it doesn't do much for me.I also really like the whole "step on, step off" feature. One thing I didn't care for about my Crybaby is having to rock the pedal all the way forward and then press down to engage the wah, since the wah was activated that way, rocking it back usually caused me to start sweeping in reverse and it sounded funky. With this, I step on it, do my thing and step off and it's out of the signal path. Speaking of that, I haven't noticed any "tone suck", like some users have mentioned. When it's off my tone is my tone, and when it's on, it does what I need it to do then gets out of the way.It is supposed to model the Dunlop "Crybaby from Hell" wah that Dime was famous for using. It does a respectable job BUT if you place this unit next to an actual Crybaby from Hell and A/B the two, the Crybaby from Hell is clearly the better of the two. It has a more pronounced sweep and a more aggressive mid-range "honk" that really helps it cut through a wall of guitars. As I understand it, some of the mods you can find online for the Hellbabe can change that and bring it closer to Dime-time, but as I haven't done these yet, and I am reviewing a out of the box as it is product and not a modified one, what it CAN do with some help is not relevant. What is relevant is what it does "as it is". But the Dime wah is also about 4X the price of the Hellbabe, so the fact that it doesn't exactly hold up next to what its supposed to be emulating can be forgiven. At least in my opinion.Behringer gets knocked around for it's build quality, but I don't see why. Yes, this thing is injection molded plastic, but it feels very sturdy. It couldn't stand up to being jumped on, but since that doesn't seem likely to happen I am not the least worried. I own a few other Behringer pedals, and haven't had any problems with them in the quality department either.The Hellbabe has earned a spot on my modest pedalboard, at least until I can find a better replacement that won't wreck my wallet. Even then, I will keep this around as a backup wah. Too many guitarists buy gear with their eyes not with their ears. Maybe that's why Behringers' company slogan is "just listen" ?
