This stuff is crazy. I'm definitely going to check out the DMM clone, that thing should be awesome. The feedbacker and slow gear clones should be a right awld larf, too.

They make me smile, because they straight up don't give a fuck. They are blatant copies and they don't even try to hide it.

Yeah I think everyone is going to end up getting the DMM, it'll be interesting to hear back to back test and see how close it actually gets.

The Phase 90 clone could be a sleeper pedal too. I doubt they are using match JFETs, but you could spend a ?10 on JFETs match them and get a pretty good pedal out of it.

I think they have been sued by Aphex for their rip off of the Aural Exciter back when it was so expensive people spent thousands renting them for studio sessions.

There might have been a lawsuit over a Mackie mixing desk as well.

hahhaa.. I'm no snob! I have those Dano FAB pedals people hate but I love.

I'll probably get one or two of them - they're too cheap and fun and face it, they cost BIRTHDAY PRESENT PRICES! How cool is that?

Pedals from friends instead of a crate of beer - rock on.

I just realised, if you actually have ten Behringer pedals on there it'll sound like you are playing and a 3'x3' cupboard before you even use an effect.

They need to release a Fleshlight copy that is cheaper and more affordable for the average loser.

"New for NAMM 08, the Behringer Skintorch"

I still don't really trust this Behringer stuff, I've heard such mixed reviews. I loved the sound of the Muff copy (more than the EH NYC Pi reissue, truth be told), but the construction and bypass were crap. Sure, it's only like 20 quid, but I don't wanna piss money away on something that's just gonna break within a year.

The tremelo is meant to be better than the Boss version because it sounds the same and does not drop in volume when switched on.

I wonder if you are an electrical engineer and you work for Behringer then try and move jobs if you'll actually have any luck. I don't think they get much love.
