Behringer EQ700 5-stars Reviews

It's an eq, what can I say

Very similar to the Boss GE7. The only downsides i can find is that there is no "notch" for the sliders at 0 dB like on the Boss, and the case is plastic. But for the price it'll do the job pretty darn well.

Can't better!

Very good!

For this amount, you can't find better EQ on market.

Plastic but still fantastic

This isn't a super durable design (all plastic) and doesn't feel the best to use.

HOWEVER

This is the cheapest 'real' EQ pedal that just works a charm, in the best way possible it has no 'sound' and just allows you to shape the tone how you like. I can't recommend it highly enough, the only thing is that if you are travelling a lot then you might want a more expensive one with a metal enclosure (that's probably double the price) just for the peace of mind.

A great, low-cost EQ pedal

Since it's basically a recreation of the BOSS EQ pedal, the 7-band EQ does a great job of shaping your tone with focused frequency ranges. The level slider also turns this pedal into a great boost pedal if you push the volume above unity.

Unbelievable!

An EQ pedal may not be sexy, but what a difference it makes. It makes everything sound better. I can adjust the sound of a fuzz from 'Satisfaction' to a sticky bassy velcro sound! Amazing.

Predominantly I play blues and this is great for dialing in different tones. Even just leaving everything centered and turning it on makes everything sound better.

A must have piece of kit.

EQ is EQ.

For shaping my sound, bumping mids or scoooping out, compensating for the inherent EQ-profile of other effect pedals etc. this does whats needed in a simple and cheap package. Plenty good enough for my home studio and practice.

I guess you could break the plastic enclosure by putting on boots and stomping down hard, so for hardcore stage use and touring something in a metal enclosure might be better suited. Or, buying two of these to have one as backup. Still cheaper than many alternatives.

Ridiculously powerful tool

The amount of tweaking you can do with this thing is enormous.

100% worth the buck.

Extremely good for the price

This pedal flawlessly allows you to EQ your sound. The only tradeoff at this price is the build quality at which it is plasticky and knobs feel flimsy.

recomend!!!

good equalizer for a decent price

Graphic equalizer

awesome quality and sound in one!

Get one. Its worth it

So what if the shell is plastic. It does what it need to do well. Just take care of it. Don't stomp too hard on it, and it'll last.

Love this eq for my acoustic guitar

It does just what I need it to. I don't have enough eq on my desk to sort out problem frequencies on my acoustic guitar. This pedal solves the problem.

Bargain Pedal

It works very well, everyone knows that has a plastic enclosure, but is seems that it's harder than my feet, so ok for me. the only thing you should know is that it has the AC clable connection on the side. If that is ok, no problem with the pedal, I've been using since few months and I found zero problems

Big difference for small change

Didn’t think I needed an EQ but thought I’d try this because it was SO cheap. It’s capable of making a huge difference to your tone, well worth the money and then some. Only 3 stars for quality because of the plastic housing but it still feels pretty solid if you don’t need access to the battery compartment.

Exactly what I was looking for

This is a high-quality, low-price pedal - I highly recommend it!

I was looking for a way to boost the level of my guitar during solos. I found that boost pedals not only made my guitar louder, but altered the tone in ways that I didn't like; they also introduced a lot of unwanted noise. All I wanted was something to make my solos stand out.

I had seen articles on the internet suggesting that an EQ pedal, placed last in the signal chain, might do the trick. My idea was to try the least expensive REPUTABLE product that I could find, and this Behringer seemed to fill the bill.

It turns out that this is exactly correct! With all the bands set at 0 and the level bumped up a couple of Db, this pedal gives my sound a small boost without altering the tone at all. Even better, the Behringer EQ700 is extremely quiet!

Although I don't use it as an EQ per se, I have played with it in that role and it seems to do very well. In fact, if I decide to add a graphic EQ type pedal to my chain, I will buy another one of these.

My only word of caution would be that the casing is made of plastic. I suspect that if you are very hard on pedals and are stomping on this one a lot, it will eventually break (and probably at the worst possible time). However, since I use a loop switcher, I never need to activate the footswitch on this pedal, so I expect that it will last a very long time.

Overall, I highly recommend this pedal as a level boost!

Great EQ pedal

It's a great EQ pedal, does its job, the only downside is that it's made from plastic, but it's a pretty strong plastic, it's not something that breaks in the first few weeks.

Great pedal for the price.

I find the pedal works just as well as the boss graphic eq of similar format. I use it in the effect loop of a high gain amp such as a Peavey 6505 to cut out certain frequencies in the end of the signal chain for making vocals in the band mix stand out or for reducing certain frequencies that build up form pre-gain eq settings. It does the job well. Build is ok. Can also be used as a boost.

bought as an extra?...

hmmm....mixed thoughts about this!...its worth the money and works well!...I just don't like the slider action with NO centre detent...! trouble is Boss equivalent is too expensive to buy in the first place?.....d;-/
