See the specs of the trademark or other notice.

bcp the pedal is heavier than it looks (and other pedals Behr). it is rather a guarantee of quality in electronics. I should just check if they have not put weight to illusion!

However, the knobs are soft and too small, too bad. it will take care for them through the years. I have no plans to torture them, so that's enough.

UTILIZATION

I bought the BDI for two purposes:
- Save (output to the soundcard and the other to the amp)
- DI have a better concert to rehearse or if not possible to have an amp.

Finally, it allows also:
- To have a boost pedal (blend 0, level above from noon)
- To have a basic EQ (blend 0, EQ and level at noon to choose)

SOUND QUALITY

Too quickly tested for now, but:

with the blend at 0 or off, the pedal is transparent.

the blend brings the right amount of "dirt" to an amp too clean (I do).

I have not tested the drive much, but overall it seems a pretty used to add crunch discrete (drive at 9 am), but not really to the saturation. Notice to review the use ...

EDIT: little test recording: the BDI direct the sound card (m-audio D44), no editing to do and the sound is really nice, and this net.
Briefly, it works well for that for which the box is made

OVERALL OPINION

Again behringer out a product that is respectable and useable, with a ratio Q / P very good!

AF tests show that the quality is below the original SansAmp, but if the goal is to make music, not comparative, and the BDI is doing well alone.
