Note : 10 sur 10

Well, it's a Behr in all its glory: solid plastic case, analog. 4 knobs: enhance (more harmonics?), Ratio: compression ratio and thresh: threshold that triggers such compression.
2 connections pedal jack, a power supply. 8 for plastic
UTILIZATION
Setup is simple if not used. Otherwise, we put the knobs "at noon" and we hack settings 1 by 1.
It's pretty convincing. Unlike others, I do not notice breath disturbing with high values of the enhancer. (There's one that may be broken-up in the studio but not live) ... Normally in the studio, you got concrete effects, no need to pack your Behr, right?
Manual available, in English if the order comes from beyond the Rhine)
SOUND QUALITY
While there, amazed!
Enhance with the mini, you win really attack and definition (I play on Fender BXR 300 bass & jazz). The bass are there, well defined. It's clean.
Going up the enhancer, the slap is very nice: use sparingly, it can ring your 18 "as a tweeter 2 balls ... Well I'm exaggerating, but in homeopathic doses.
I edit: live, it generates a breath effecive disturbing. Almost unusable or repeat ...
OVERALL OPINION
Used in recent weeks, it became indispensable to me. It is ugly, the knobs are fake but it has already fallen a couple of times without collateral damage.
Before, I only use compressors that existed on the amps. This pedal is at least as good.
Last but not least: the price: € 9.60 at Thomann (no, I have nothing Ouli: sixty nine euros) ...
The full zikos choose to have a boss, others will like me!
As usual, my rating reflects the value, not absolute value compared to the gear 20 times more ...
