JMB-Experience Devil Inside V3

(Originally written by jef31/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
Hi,

I've been owning this JMB Devil Inside fuzz and distortion pedal for two months.

First of all, don't hesitate to get in touch with the designer and producer... He is very kind and listens to your needs.

The product was properly packaged and delivered quickly.

UTILIZATION

Many (too many?) sound possibilities, so it's impossible for you not to find your own tone! The pedal produces fuzz and distortion effects as well as strange sounds.

The sound depends on the guitar pickups, which is a good thing.

The tone control is effective and indispensable (I miss it on the Zvex Fuzz Factory).

SOUND QUALITY

I'm not a fuzz fan, and I have tested many products that sound sharp and not very musical.

The London Fuzz and this one belong to the best fuzz pedals.

OVERALL OPINION

Good value for money considering the sound quality and the possibilities.

Pros: sound. Cons: I spent a long time looking for this product. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

Fuzz ... see other opinions.

UTILIZATION

ditto ... it's a happy mess, what ...

SOUND QUALITY

the sound is really excellent. My guitar has a tendency to scrap with distos (SRV Strat and an old tube amp). Here, it is filthy, very powerful, but without being annoying. In fact, I play very loud without noticing ... except when I stop.
But if I add that opinion, not essential, it indicates that at home, the order of the pedals was crucial. I know someone has already mentioned, but I wanted to repeat. After the tuner, and a status wha Xotic, it was not that. more severe enough, not enough roundness. Put in first place, it's heaven.
So now, to watch out for that.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two days. But it promises ...

The Devil Inside V03 is a Fuzz! or plutt of Fuzz's! Whose combinations and behavior to read DIFFERENT rglages available seem endless.
Its technology is analog and uses transistors (Germanium please).
Seeing me the designer explained that he was sorting the components at length, keeping only the best, like a Japanese chef vrifiant uncompromising a shipment of fish, before making sushi.

UTILIZATION

Compared to what is said above, it is ncessaire to spend some time exploring the craft. Yeah, it's a lively and pedals not plug a preset.
In order, there is a SETTING THE Volume, well tag used on the race
a filter button, rglage a noise gate, a rglage texture, and finally the level of fuzz, fury and a button named Insane. We amme ACCS using a screwdriver to SETTING THE "Force" the Fuzz, the effect of "planplan" to "supa'killer".

SOUND QUALITY

Effective?? No, dmoniaque and these are the exact words rac
me I introduce a guitar, but try to have it, The Devil also behaves well with a trs BASSS by following in his lowest notes.
I do not prevent me uses more wild and noisy dviantes.

OVERALL OPINION

I possde the Devil for 2 months, j'hsitai take the Z-Vex (also excellent), but the Devil a doubt even more surprising characters. Although its construction is superb hand-made.
Certainly not give, but given the quality of manufacture and the excellence of its sound, I can only recommended its choice.

- What are the effects or types of effects available?
This is an ultra versatile fuzz.

- What technology is used? (Analog, numrique, lamp ...)
Germanium our, true bypass

- Are they ditables? Via an editor Mac / PC?
Editable, yeah the hand ...

The case looks super solid (note that they are all numrots during manufacture of the pedals). You can either plug in 9v power supply with classqiue boss or cell type.

What can I say? Apparently robust design, simple and efficient technology

UTILIZATION

Then the one must say that it is a machine producing fuzz (and sounds bizare to time). There are 6 knobs that interact with each other over an internal rglage acessible ince the cot of the pedals.
The filter is acting strangely but beautifully too! 0 1 or 2 was an effect on the midrange with good bass and treble a little attnus, APRS we go back treble, mids then remaining fixed. Finally we must try to understand. Edit: actually in position 0 it does not boost the midrange or low trs, but in fact keeps the signal intact guiatre and adds the fuzz on the other potions have been a great influence on the acute frquences and serious.
Cut, as its name suggests ... But it also has an influence on the sound for the feedback
Texture, which affects the texture of the fuzz but not limited to (bottom to test as well)
Fuzz, which acts on the gain (the more you get back and stuff DIFFERENT INTERESTED)
Insane, which acts on the whole no one knows how many trs.
Finally, it is difficult to talk about rglages as they act as diffrent rglages other knobs, especially as often in the most extreme positions they indict functions.
The internal trim is rgler the characters from the fuzz, but in its lowest rglage was a kind of overdrive quite simpa!
And therefore difficult to trs Premire minutes to find a good sound, but the more we understand we try. After one hour hack on the beast mastery a lot and it comes out all the sounds you want! Really should not be afraid to bottom or with the zero-pedals.
The manual gives a good aid for beginners but should not be relied upon 100%, try to understand what a particular knob is used in this configuration and move a bit in all directions, sometimes ca plays a quarter to have his hair or another.
While this may seem a bit boring Premire (aprhension the difficulty of the pedals in its operation) is a standard asset rvle be without this apparent complexity (and relative) there would not be so much wealth.

SOUND QUALITY

What can I say? I've had really short time but I am dj poustouffl. We want to exprimental, you have, the fuzz of greasy, you have, the fuzz plutout soft, you have, the tuft of whistling, it is! the feedback or not, chaos or ahr ... I think even those who do not like the sound fuzz could get a lot of love rglages.
She leaves trs good bass and midrange I think it's the quality that most j'apprcie. You can really shape the sound, even leaving a neutral rglage the amp.

I use a Squier Start team of humbuckers in bridge and gives trs trs bottom (not top microphones, guitar State dlabr not only great for a test anyway). It has a lot of notes but trs trs serious kind guiater 7 strings still give several low, ca ring less than half of conventional ground if the r mid dsaccord or one or two tone lower. APRS with a bass on a bass amp that can be ca can.

A bc rich with superdistortion in bridge, then the guiatre which is the need! Agreement in R (or a little lower?) Is a real rgale. With the neck pickup is almost dark but ca INTERESTED.

A transistor amp (an old marshall 20Watt) it sounds trs trs well, better than I thought! M'enfin I always clean the AIM of this amp, the distos will go well, bizare also because of the same version but with more watts and larger ca hp goes the less pedals.

A pod xt ca is doing really pretty! This is the very first time I put a pod in front of the pedals and bin it's still not bad at all! APRS good I test on two simus amp that I like, I have nothing too detailed yet, but still a nice surprise!

On an amplifier PGA (randall rg50) it sounds better, but frankly the diffrence is not abhrante, clearly audible but not extreme. It comes adapt well the amp that he sticks derrire whatever appears.

It can be from any which way when you stop playing or when the limit of its one end. Apparently it's pretty similar with what some of their fuzz factory cot l. Excellent!

OVERALL OPINION

I just bought like that. I wanted a fuzz to make noise in my group and some riffs a little fat and grimey. I wanted to point me to a big muff or fuzz face, something usual, but I came across the samples of JMB, and versatility of the pedals was a real tent. So After a few exchange of mails with JMB (super simpa available and the way! A true enthusiast!) And I take on a whim. I'm not the type to put big bucks in my stuff but I needed a fuzz that is crazy but Grable, I got it, with as hundreds of fuzz under the foot ...
The ratio quality price is not bad in the end. It is certainly not cheap but the opportunities it offers are consquence, that's all that I m'intresse.
APRS is handmade in France with components sorts, with a passion but good in the end this is what we can do that matters, and we can do things with!
