Everyone of these pedals sounded great man. We play a lot of the same music/style. I'd use any of these pedals. I'm actually pleasantly surprised how good they all sounded.

I've been meaning to this video for a long time. It took awhile to gather all of these, but I think it was worth the money and effort. The idea that we can get great sounding pedals on a small budget is very exciting to me.

Great video, man. I love the approach. Just jump right in, no long intros; anything we need to know will come up as text while you're playing. And obviously if a particular pedal grabs us, we'll research it more. Well done.

The cheap overdrive I can’t take off my board is the Caline Enchanted Tone (Dumble ODS tone clone I think?). I use a Vox Silk Drive (Dumble SSS NuTube clone) as my preamp (ampless DI rig) and together they provide such a nice lead tone, I can’t. Just can’t.

Is fuzz a part of overdrive or a part of distortion? To me Sonicake and Dark Flame belonged to the distortion vid. Anyways i think NUX and JOYO are nailing it. Quality sounds and earthy prices. Great vid as always. Looking forward to watch the Green Mile (by the Tone Lounge this time) review.

I have an American Sound pedal - not all bad but I found there's something of an unpleasant tinny sound to the treble which makes the top end difficult to get right. Of the pedals that I've tried I like the "Dumbal" pedal from Donner - Not a heavy drive sound but the tone is good IMHO and if you're pushing a loud valve amp with it sounds great.

My favorite drive pedals are Klon klones, and I've tried at least a dozen different ones under $100. My favorites are the Caline Medusa, the Joyo Tauren, the Tone City Bad Horse, and the Caline Pegasus. I haven't yet tried the Nux Horseman, the TC Electronics Zeus, the DemonFX Gravity dual, which is a Klon on one side and a TS10 on the other side, or the Mosky Marksman.

The Harley Benton emulator pedals have non-defeatable ‘cab sim,’ which is essentially a fixed EQ at the end of the internal signal path. They should be recorded direct to get their truest results. That being said, the only one I didn’t care for in the video was the AC Tone. It was just a little dull sounding. Everything else in this video was excellent. I was surprised by some, particularly the Steel Singer. It was a deeper sound than I anticipated. Great demo, overall. You have a new subscriber.
@TheToneLounge
2 жыл бұрын
I've heard others say that too. I could not hear that cab sim, so I recorded it as-is. I'll have to do further testing with the pedal straight into my audio interface. Glad that you joined the TTL community. Let me know if you are looking for anything specific, I may have a video on it...or could make one. Cheers

That depends what you are aiming for. The Pure sky might be a bit more neutral sounding, so it would pair well with the Horseman. The Morningstar and Horseman would be very cool, but more mids and punch.

The joyo pedals seem to be just the ticket for trying to pull way more treble from my recently dragged back out Stageright 15w... I didn't mess with the tone beyond a classic tone back when I last played it, but now I am noticing that it's way too dark. Tone and presence dimed out gives me exactly... *NOTHING²!* 😡 Sorta like an Orange without the other side of the tone control beyond 11 o'clock. Either it plays ball or the oscilloscope comes out to modify exactly where I want it filter.
