Behringer UC200 Reviews

Beautiful BBD chorus that paris well with synths

Quality of the construction is not the best. Enclosure is plastic, pots and bypass switch is not the best quality and because of this I reduce one star. I give it 4/5 because this pedal sounds very good with analog synths (and with any synth). Sound reminds me of old boss bbd pedals. If you are a synthhead I can warmly recommend this product for you.

You can't go wrong with this one

A budget friendly option to an amazing sounding chorus. I had read some reviews about being made of plastic, but it really feels stable. Never had any problem with this one and I've been using it for about a year now!

Good for the price

I mainly use it in the studio for giving my mono synths a stereo image in some cases. Mainly when in a prototyping stage. For the money, it manages to pull that out quite successfully. The case is all plastic so I wouldn't take it on stage. But in general, there's always the feeling that there's something missing. I don't know what but maybe it's because tweaking the settings won't give you those sweet spots you are looking for. It's rather neutral. All in all pretty good for the price though.

Was not expecting much

For this price i was not expecting a great pedal, and i guess you get what you paid for. The sound becomes distorted even when the pedal is turned off

Very good for the price

I will not talking about the price, which is a very strong point in selling this pedal. The question is: I would buy this if the price wouldn't be in question? Probably not, because of plastic casing. But the casing is more sturdy than I expected. So what's holding me back? In fact nothing, the quality is in the sound. This is not "in the face" type of pedal, it is subtle and refined. It has clarity and warmth in the sound, of course, with extreme settings it became worbbling, but this is not its natural character.

The single case when the signal lost some level was when I placed it after a reverb pedal.

Outstanding value for money great sounding pedal.

It may be cheap but its a VERY good pedal

Was not expecting too much from this little pedal but, it gives more than enough for any situation and can be taken down to minimum chorus for subtle tones.

Highly recommended at this price. Probably won?t survive a world tour but for home use and local gigs, brilliant!

A terrific chorus pedal

This pedal is essentially a low-cost version of the Boss CH-1. It has the same controls and the same sounds as the CH-1. I own both and I can't tell the difference between the pedals if I'm blindfolded.

As with all Behringer pedals, changing the battery is a bit of a pain, but you can't go wrong getting this pedal for one-fifth the price of other chorus pedals.

Good for the price

Sound quality is good.

Pedal housing is made of plastic- again for the price is ok. The plastic itself is average quality but elements are fitted correctly.

The on/off switch is simplest tact switch mounted on PCB. Once you open battery compartment all of that is visible.

Pros:

+ good sound quality

Con:

- it is not true bypass. Effect when is turned off has some minor impact to sound.

- materials quality is direct result of price. As it is affordable pedal.

Shortly:

Good sound in plastic package.

Another great budget effects pedal!

Once again, I'm impressed how good this sounds, considering the price! I bought a bunch of these cheap Behringer effects to try out and combine some new sounds, and they haven't let me down. The chorus sounds good and the knobs actually change the sound! I remember that being an issue back when I started playing - cheap effects wouldn't sound good and you couldn't really adjust much through the knobs. I'm really happy that now you can get decent sounding (and handling) budget gear. The cheap plastic casing (they had to save money somewhere!) doesn't bother me, as it doesn't feel as it would break that easily. Definitely recommended!

UC200

This pedal is a keeper. A nice chorus sound that I use on synths and guitar.

Great chorus pedal for a great price

it sounds really great, it is the exact copy of boss, for a very low price, as said by many the effect is plastic not metal, but anyway I think it is a very solid build, even for stage use if you dont jump madly on your pedals, unbeatable quality/sound/price ratio

Very good pedal

very good pedal with an incredibly good sound for that price

Decent for the price

Nice to have stereo out, shame for the plastic box, but again understandable for the price

Another Tester Pedal but great

Bought this pedal along with some other Behringer ones as a cheap way to try and build a pedal board to get the kind of sounds i'm am going for without purchasing expensive boutique pedals and then realizing that its not the sound I want or need. To be honest the pedals sound great for the money and are pretty easy to use. Plastic casing may be an issue but once attached to a pedal board board i can't see an issue. Worth the money and may just keep on the board instead of a more expensive version as I am happy with the sound.

Total beast hidden under a plastic shell!

It definitely looks as a much more shy and "toyish" pedal, but as soon as you plug it in - you understand where did every cent of your money go!

Great chorus sound, really the thing for grunge, indie or alternative rock.

Pros:

Ultra cheap

Magnificent sound

Cons:

Plastic case, makes you feel a bit scared when pressing on it, although it is pretty strong.

The switching mechanism feels a little clumsy, but still works just fine!

To sum up I should mention that this pedal does not lose to many more expensive pedals when speaking of sound. My biggest objection is the plastic body which is not hard to deal with anyway.
