All user reviews for the Behringer Distorsion Modeler DM100

(Article purchased magazin the + close)

---

I Espanole but a good scratch ...

it is rather to boost the output of my synth without effects.

(See description ...)

UTILIZATION

(Note)

I connect a cable jack symmetrical, the pedal is not lit.

.

return magazin. test ... OK!

.

a single bright yellow cable will do between my synth and "purpose" ..

SOUND QUALITY

ui gf ...

I ecouté including BOSS 1 .. 2?

bp too acute ..

I like the switch for the bass, med, and ultras': D

OVERALL OPINION

more gf at the moment ... I had totally use this jack from the AUDIO HEADPHONES out to in my synth ..

surprising indeed "xOOOOOx"

->

if you are a heavy guitar pop / rock / (at lower prices ...)

this pedal is made FOR YOU!

-

(The only regret ...) it lacks the "true bypass" -> pr bass / guitar elec / ca tro acouss
chain nothing

on the other hand behind the mono A left North lead, we lose altogether! fishing for this synth!

so ...

I will not put 4 * either, but as synthesist ke ...

WELL I rate this distortion pedal effect "dirty in low" with not one, not two ...

BUT 3 STARS!

if I had to make this purchase ...

I will try to see if the same "behriner" (a V2, but still!) with true bypass, in case I do not use .. without grain loss / gain.

This is a distortion pedal that can model numerically classques three pedals fuzz / overdrive / distortion that are the DS1, the D + and the RAT. For the user it is as transparent as using an ordinary effects pedal, analog input and output but digital processing internally. So unless you have a pronounced distrust digital emulation, nothing can hold you to experiment. So for me it's a 9, because I reserve the 10 for each original model.

UTILIZATION

Three knobs and a switch, the setting could not be more obvious, it determines the amount of distortion with the first, the amount of harmonic tone (this gives a sound ranging from very dull to very metal) and finally with the gain Level. A reservation, however, the material quality of the pedal. In addition to its case fully plastic promised an aging random (over time it may become brittle especially at the hinge of the hood), it does not feel very comfortable pressing it like a madman and I highly doubt that this pedal has a place on stage. Furthermore, the race is not very regular potentiometers not to touch but to the ear. Numerical modeling requires you through a step value to another instead know the escalation analog pedals. Thus, the adjustment of the distortion appears quite reached the approximate 3 / 4 of the race, we pass suddenly from a subtle crunch to overdrive a wild one nuance that the other two knobs that are Tone and Level.

Another major weakness, however, use: changing the 9v battery, you must use a system of push buttons at the turn of the pedal cover requiring the use of two pens bic, not very elegant ... So a 5 because of this lack of usability and fidelity in the sound settings. Besides, if you hesitate to buy, though these defects have in mind because they are really the counterpart of an unusually low price.

SOUND QUALITY

How to judge the sound quality for such a pedal? Let's be honest, I do not own any of the three pedals emulated so I will not speculate to say that this is true or not. I have a US TV that I plug into a Behringer V-amp 2 which I find the sound a little too clean and too cold and dirty distortion. What I can say is that the DM100 has brought the little grain was missing. Disto with little but a lot of Level I get a nice boost that highlights the medium with a touch of heat (as to what the digital ...).

With pronounced disto I find the sound I wanted to know tend noisy, Sonic Youth, Placebo, Nirvana. The sound of the DS1 is by far the most fuzz, causing a terrible noise, the word draft is probably what best describes the result.
The D + and rats have more body and offers distos punchy and harmonically rich.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three days, I immediately detected the weaknesses, now it remains to exploit the nuances of the pedal modeling. I guess it falls into the category of the Line6 modeling distortion and given the price difference, no doubt the second option seems preferable for those with heavy use of their pedals.
If one seeks only sounds noisy, wild, dirty and full of harmonics, the DM100 is a perfectly acceptable option. I use sticks at home, I had also not want to spend over 80 euros for a single pedal, it was of exceptional quality. I have owned many pedals distos: the boss (OD1, MT2), an ibanez (TS808), a tube marshall (governor), I got tired one day or another and I am ruined. I therefore find the quality / price ratio extremely interesting and I think my interest even close to that reproduces the big muff.

This includes pedals Ralite distos diffrent 3 (DS-1 Distortion + and RAT). There is an input, output jack, a power supply jack. Rglages level there is a three position slecteur to select the type of distortion, a SETTING THE gain a rglage SETTING THE qulisation and output level. The pedals are heavy enough to stay well on the floor (thank you the lead plate below!). However we should not give big kicks over or so .... squeak! It's lightweight robustness level. The slecteur control a small cross (nothing to do av a big footswitch what). To stack one seeks a time. Must be removed above the pedals (the footswitch) stack your checks. We look for a moment if someone shows you. I put a battery and the battery connector is broken ds I wanted to change it. In short C not tough but for the price ...

UTILIZATION

Setup is simple and easy. It turns a walk. The manual is practically nonexistent, but It is not necessary either, except to change the battery. It's simple but very easy knob turns so be careful!

SOUND QUALITY

Then do not believe that one is in possession of the pedals century. Personally I was looking for a distortion waiting to buy some pedals more ... expensive lol.
I use the pedals with a tube amp. The attack is fairly well made. I persois in a certain configuration of espce derrire buzz sound of the guitar. As if two guitars playing at the same time, one with a crunch and the other distortion. It's pretty weird but you really have to listen!
I do not know the original distos so I do not judge the quality of rendering. Basically the RAT is the sweetest (it's a little more crunch) the distortion a little more pchu + and DS-1 really more dirty. It happens to have a good sound without having either a crystalline distortion in La Mesa. Once faith for the price ....

OVERALL OPINION

I use it recently. It is a quality pedals with a report irrprochable prices but will not suit those looking for high quality effects or have the hardware is just o hear the difference. Personally it is a temporary pedals so I had going. With a transistor amp must be heard under the small default. Another thing, there is not a true bypass for APRS what I heard. Is stopped when the effect is to turn the buttons on the pedals has come to change a bit but its a faith you really have to cost.
In short if you can not afford to pay you 100 euros has pedals and you do not want to sound trs trs end ... PDAL this is for you. But do not expect has seen miracle for 23 euros

3 emulation distortion pedals:

BOSS DS1
MXR D +
Proco RAT

A switch allows selection mode
Level 1
1 Drive
Tone 1

Powered by 9v battery or transformer

UTILIZATION

It selects the type of distortion, adjusting the gain, tone and level. Nothing too complicated ...

Where it is more annoying (I agree with above) is the race of winning. Actually to 3 / 4 one gets a good overdrive and soon you push a bit further, we move on to a hard distortion that wallpaper! it lacks a little subtlety in the settings ...

Otherwise setting tone and output level ok.

Otherwise, change the battery is a bit boring (like all Behringer pedals). But if you use a power supply is OK

SOUND QUALITY

Of any good overall.

I do not know the pedals emulated (except a little Rat). But it sounds pretty good.

DS1: the distortion typically typed a little Fuzz. A big sound a little dirty and slimy that much hard to do a good hard rock or metal. But be a little lower tone of the pedal if it sounds too shrill for my taste.

D +: Overdrive boosted very medium nickel to play ZZ Top. This mode of personality.

Rat: Fuzz with great presence. Well-defined bass. Allows for either a light or just plain overdrive sound like Big Muff. Going very well on Sorrow Pink Floyd. It seems to be fairly accurate compared to the original.
The criticisms I can make this pedal is the difference in volume between different modes and a lack of subtlety when playing with the Drive just pushed. But I think it is not for use overdrive but rather as a very powerful distortion. So it makes sense that it is more comfortable in distortion. This is what is expected and why it does it well ...
Also, the overall impression is still sound a bit "dirty".
But the fault really bothersome is the presence of noise artifacts in the background when the sound of the guitar is weakened (eg keeping score). But it comes off when rubbed with a noise gate ...

OVERALL OPINION

This is not a definitive opinion because I have not yet exploited its full potential.
But at first glance, this pedal is fulfilling its function and is even surprising for the price.
This gives a wide range of sound with only if it is only three modes available. If after we play on the drive and tone, we still get other sounds ...

The sound that emerges is not cold at all, it has a huge potato. In addition, this pedal produces no more breath than the average. If you are looking for a powerful overdrive, it will, of which distos tear - even better. But for a crunch / blues, go your way. Better in this case move on Behringer TO800 (copy of the Tube Screamer).

The effects listed are:
* Distortion
* Overdrive
* Fuzz

Digital

UTILIZATION

Very simple: a selector 3 positions for each of the effects knobs + 3 tonalite and gain level

sounds are difficult to edit because the knob is low precision!
no manual

SOUND QUALITY

The effect, once properly adjusted is not rendering evil and not so ttrop degueux than that but it is the gallery for a look because of the knobs!
it is in series with a Squier Stratocaster and a Marshall AVT 30 and play in the living room, ca is more than enough for small gigs if need an adjustment it can go through to save against it releases a sizzling WHICH appears with the computer ...???¿¿¿

but for that price the AC does not take abuse!

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a year it is used I thought she would soon be damaged since it is plastic but it holds up!
For the money we pedal emultaion making it three so it's cool
As against the low quality knobs emmer ** a bit to find the right sound (enough without being dirty or saturated gadget!)
unbeatable value for money payee € 23 uros
I would do with the experience probably the choice, or hesitate with vintage tube of the same brand that made it not bad either!

Behringer has been on a mission when it comes to cloning pedals. This time, they combined the Boss DS-1, MXR Distortion+/250 and the RAT. There is a three way switch to select between these three different modes, and it also has a tone knob, volume knob and gain knob.

UTILIZATION

Unlike the Boss counterparts, I'm not exactly sure how well these will stand up to touring. Where as the Boss products are known to be able to survive a nuclear holocaust, this pedal is still new. The casing itself isn't too bad, and it seems like it could take some abuse without much of an issue. It's ridiculously easy to set up, and you shouldn't even need to read the manual as to how to run this thing. That said, I have never read the actual manual, so I can't comment as to how well it's written.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound isn't too bad, but it doesn't truly emulate all three different pedals. For one, these are fairly different distortion pedals. Hell, the Distortion+ is actually an overdrive pedal. In the DS-1 setting, it's supposed to be like the Boss DS-1. However, it seems to be a bit buzzy. Then again, the DS-1 was a bit buzzy anyway so there's not a huge change. The Distortion+ mode sounds nothing like the normal overdrive. It is way more like a distortion pedal than anything else. The RAT setting also doesn't sound like a RAT. That said, for the price, it's not that bad.

OVERALL OPINION

If you're expecting to get all three different pedals in one little box, you might as well give up now. It doesn't sound like all three pedals. That said, for the price, it's not that terrible of a pedal. I have a moral issue with these pedals in that you should never support actual clone pedals like this, but it's up to you if you wanna buy it or not. I'd rather have all three different pedals simply because they sound different and are way more versatile.

See previous posts.

UTILIZATION

So we find ourselves faced with a knob Tone, and Level one Dist.
Nothing too difficult, so no need for manual, especially for the little information given in = D

There is no problem for a sound we love once having passed the phase of "discovery" of the pedal.

SOUND QUALITY

Tone: In the middle, without its special properties.
Far left, sounds very very thorough in the bass very pleasant to deal with for being quite deep and heavy or to rebalance a guitar in this too acute.
All right, a sound with too much treble really giving effect "radio" very inadvisable; D on the other hand, to 3 quarts (hence half the right side) is really a good position to give some punch to the guitar, if it is a bit soft and not aggressive enough compared to what you want is the right thing.
Dist: Pushed to the max, he spits very hard regardless of the mode to half or one quarter the D + and TAR, we have a very nice crunch but we must raise the level knob beforehand.

When I play volume of apartment, my favorite effects are undoubtedly the user mode crunch or RAT cranked, the RAT is also rather similar to the D + but with more sounds, when the DS1 (type metal) it is simply horrible apartment with my volume = receiver).

on the other hand in small repeated with a Peavey amp TransTube pushed to the max, mode and RAT D + Dist even with the max does not change almost anything if it is a more ugly, that pushed to the max, this amp makes us sympathetic overdrive by the DS1 cons here really stands out and proves its usefulness, we have a really great sound! This will delight any guitarist in this case indeed ^ o ^! The distortion was really impressive.

I use a Hagstrom F-20T white, my little amp is a Fender Frontman Reverb Amp 38 Watts which is never driven more than 1.2 or so, repeat the amp is a Peavey Bandit ® 112.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it about 6 months.
What I like most is the fact that it can be used in situations with very different potential often very well hidden.
What I like least is that each mode may not be usable depending on the situation, there is usually only one mode which makes it very well at a time.
In fact I was enormously knowledgeable about the market models to replace the pedal Monarch MMM-22 Metal Master I always typed this pedal is metal, I wanted a crunch.

The quality / price is indisputable, paid in the 25 €, it has a huge potential risk of sounding pro in certain situations.

So what choice I would do nothing without hesitation with the memory of his crunch at home and the huge distortion in repeated! = D
(And for 30 € is really given the coup>. ")

Well I'm waiting for a Blackstar HT-DISTX that will allow me to sound very, very heavy, but there is not the same range or price or features, we talk about stuff lamp there.
