Behringer FX600 3-stars Reviews

Tested on different amps and different guitars, but still all the settings sound the same. The octaver is cool though

Pretty Good

Pretty good, as expected for a budget Behringer pedal. A great multi-fx to get started with, and very compatible with a non-guitar (eg sax/trumpet) pedal board rig. Slightly limited in build quality, and sometimes provides a faulty connection, and definitely on the noisier side especially without an isolated power source, but overall good value and you get what you pay for.

NOT WHAT I EXPECTED

PEDAL WORKED OK, BUT NOT THE EFFECTS I EXPECTED, BUT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A MISTAKE READING ON MY PART, HOWEVER SOUNDED AS IT SHOULD AND WORKED WELL FOR THE PRICE

Beoordeling

Het pedaal heeft veel goed werkende effecten, maar er is jammergenoeg veel gepiep aanwezig dat zorgt voor een storend geluid.

A throwaround pedal

You can’t expect good sound from it in general, you can find a few good combinations, or you want to use just a little of an effect.

I use it for tremolo, for quick mild chorus, for flanger in cleans.

Overall meh sound, if you want to use it a lot you will be disappointed long term.

Behringer FX600

Quite a suitable device for your money. I took it for a test, since I'm a beginner guitarist and I'm still looking for my sound. Of the disadvantages:

1. Plastic housing. To create greater stability, a massive metal plate is screwed from below.

2. When rotating the handles PAR 1 and PAR 2, a crunch is heard in the speakers.

Lots of knobs to turn and flick and dik

A lot of effects but no good. The Delay is good tho

Great value

I have given this 3 stars as I am being objective here regarding the sounds that you can get from this pedal, but I will state at the outset; at this price you can't go wrong! This pedal is excellent if you wish to try out a few different effects and see which ones suit your style.

Obviously each effect isn't as good as a dedicated unit, but there are a broad range of options here. I like the tremolo most out of these effects. Obviously one flaw is that you cannot use more than one effect at the same time. I got this because I only had a chorus pedal and I wanted to try out a few more effects. This certainly did the job!

I did not like the way the dial for choosing the effect moved. Most pedals have the dial 'snap' into place, but there are apparently no grooves here for the dial to sit in.

Good all rounder

Great for home use, have to spend some time with it to work out settings.

Good sound quality but sore on the battery, so get yourself a mains lead.

OK pedal.

I use this in the send/return of a Memory Man DeLuxe. It has a nice array of sounds, even has dual in/outs. Construction is plastic, which is of no concern to me as don't operate my gear by foot but by hand.

Good, but not flawless;

Bought this pedal for the pitch shift function. I needed a pedal that I could just throw next to my board. This was the cheapest option.

When it comes so sound; The pedal has several effects, though they don't always work that good. When I use the chorus, flanger or phaser they just don't give a nice colorful touch to your sound. Sometimes I even get latency. Even when using the pedal on it's own. Luckily for me not on the pitch shift effect.

The pedal had a plastic housing which isn't sturdy at all. It goes wherever it want with the smallest nudge. The 'in' jack inputs are very loose and the cable easily pulls out.

Overall; a good starter pedal for a home setup, but not for a proper stage. Watch some videos on this pedal before you buy it.

Lots of features, all mediocre

A good pedal for a starter to develop your taste for what you like.

Having established what sounds you want then buy pedals for those specifically. Good second hand value and easy to sell afterwards.

For the money and to try new things... Is ok

How do you rate a pedal? What doesn't sound good might perfect for somebody else, so... Does it module the sound in different ways? It does.

I didn't find them specially overwhelming, but I used quite a lot the flanger and the phaser.

Sometimes was a bit weird to adjust, but ended doing the job.

The problem I see comes with the construction itself. A plasti box with this kind of pedal is a bit weak, being not the responsive you expect. Sometimes the pedal wasn't engaging, sometimes wasn't turning off... but putting the price upfront... you can't expect much more.

I used it to find the tones I was looking for and getting dedicated pedals after some time. Nice pedal to explore new stuff, not so nice to use forever.

Handy but not user friendly

Cheap and affordable but not lacking in quality. Worth the purchase and essential to my set-up.

Could however have more usable friendly parameters.

Decent Starter Pedal

This is a good pedal to start you pedal collection. Its not the best sounding pedal you will hear but it will get the job done on a budget.

I would only recommend this to people only starting out in the guitar pedal world and looking to dip your toe in the water.

Not for anyone who is serious about there pedalboard.

I found there to be an unwanted hum when using this pedal with the level up past a certain point which I dont find on the more popular pedals.

Can't obtain good sound

Pros:

1. Dirt cheap

2. Much features in single small pedal

Cons:

1. Low build quality(it is not because of plastic. You just feel it)

2. Not quality pots

3. Hard to get good sound (all of them are bad)

This is perfect device for beginner who wants to explore guitar effects. But if you don't use all effect, just invest more money and buy a good pedal. I just buy it for using delay and chours. I will return it and buy separate pedals .

A nice start into the effects world

This is one of the first multi effects pedals i ever owned. It has a lot of features but the best are the tremolo and pitch shifter. The tremolo has a great range and the pitch shifter is easy to use with a nice sound. The delay is crazy and hard to control which makes it near obsolete. The problem with this pedal is durability. It only last a few months on my board. Great to start off with but not for anyone other than a beginer.

Fx600

If you are looking for a flanger? I am not recommend this one. nut asside from that this is a multi Effects, Delay, Phaser, Chorus and tremolo work well but flanger is not that good. For thos beginers who does not yet effects or no budjet yet to buy chorus and delays? this one will work fine!..

I find one good effekt...

This is a stomp in the usual way , no effects are stored.

In a single-effect stomp that's not so bad because many people use just not umpteen different chorus ( or whatever ) sounds. Who makes but is probably better off with a multi-effects with memory locations.

The BEHRINGER FX600 is on the design for live use a very unfavorable device , sitting there several different effects that are not called up individually without fumbling and can be saved .

Therefore , most players buy those individual effects that they would use the FX600 as single pedals .

For a beginner, the thing could also be a very nice tester.

The operation of such a ground offender 's much simpler than a multi-effect program with menus and at home it's not so bad if much needs to be turned over to the unit.

29 euros are really not much, but the buyer has to be clear that he later (assuming the thing sounds passable ) has no real multi effects unit .

It may be realistic to assume that he is touting 3 settings and adjusted during the concert 2x .

However, if one of the effects is useful and the thing is behind even used only as a single effect , then the price is also not too much.

Is it possible to pack so much into such a small box?

Is it possible to pack so much into such a small box? After playing with this pedal, I'm not so sure. Unfortunately I'd say the most remarkable thing about this pedal (other than the price, which is practically a give- away) is the light to let you know it's active. It's practically bright enough to let your friends, neighbours and anyone on the moon know you're switched on. It's functional but also a little irritating. The effects themselves are passable and they perform as required but inevitably Behringer have sacrificed some flexibility around the controls to produce this pedal so you're left with some pretty basic options. Of the controls, one selects the level, two select the effect parameters (these are different for each effect) and the fourth is the effect selector itself. This final knob puzzles me a little as it lacks a reassuring "click" as you turn it from one effect to another which leaves me constantly wondering which effect I've selected. In short, whilst this pedal is great value for money (like other Behringer equipment) I would only recommend as a first foray into pedal buying. Excellent for practice but not for serious gigging.
