Alpha Omega definitely has more clarity and midrange punch, but honestly, that can probably be pulled out of the Monomyth with the EQ with a little bit of work. They're close enough to where most people could probably get by with the Monomyth at low to medium gain and some tweaking. The cab sim feature is more advanced on the Darkglass stuff, so that might be worth it for some. Still, Joyo has a couple massive wins in my book as far as value.

Exactly my thoughts. Just add some 1.5k-3k on the Joyo, maybe even a bit of the high shelf, and it should be fine. We would not need the bigger headroom on the Darkglass for these frequencies anyway... I am sold on the Monomyth! 🤩

Damn, i mean fair play to darkglass for sending the pedals but also huge kudos to you for not being limp and just going with who sent the pedals. I get it that thw darkglass may sound 'different', yes it does a touch but, as you said, without an B2b comparison, would anybody know?, probably not. For pros with loads of spare cash, why not splash out on top brands but for amateurs, and those with less disposable cash....the difference really is acceptable:). Great vid

If I had to absolutely stick to a restricted budget I wouldn't hesitate to go for the Joyo pedals, but given the choice free of money constraints I would definitely choose the Darkglass pedals. The slightly more articular sound along with the build quality, in my humble opinion, is worth the premium price.

I love my AlphaOmega, and it is by far my favourite sounding pedal, but I hate putting it on a pedal board to gig with. Someone with a keen eye will identify it, and some things have a way of growing legs and walking away, you know what I'm saying? Anywho, I got a Monomyth to gig with. Everyone still loved the sound, though I personally still use my AO at home as I also noticed the difference when I was at home. Live though? Sounds great, and goes well in a live mix.

In my opinion the Double Thruster vs BK3 is very close. So close in fact I may even try to get my hands on a Double thruster. However, AO vs Monomyth is pretty much a no contest for me. The extra 5% - 15% improvement you get from the AO would probably save me 30 - 60min ( and less plugins) while mixing. Either way, I'm glad I took the time to watch this video cheers!

Blindfolded? No way to tell. I think the b3k filters low end a little better? As you mentioned it is more articulat. The bottom end of the d3k just sounds more crispy to me, probably just better electronic components. And the alpha-omega feels more compressed and articulate also. And I'm probably getting the monomyth since I was interested since your last video and after this video, I'm convinced. I've always wanted an Alpha-omega but can't really justify the price.

Awesome review, exactly what I was looking for and has helped me really decide which ones to get (Thruster and A/O). Only point of criticism would be that you didnt really play much in the lower register to show off how much more clankyness and clarity the A/O has which is kind of what Jon Stockman uses the pedal most for. Check out "We are" and the final minutes of "New Day" from his band Karnivool out for some examples, especiallyin new day where he just chugs on the low E string (he tunes up to F#) and the low B string. Otherwhise awesome awesome work, thanks a lot, love your channel!

Just bought the Monomyth and the Scylla a few weeks ago and I must say, both are amazing, especially for the price. You really can't go wrong, if that's the type of pedals you need. Particurarly for rehersals, playing at home or smaller gigs, I really don't see the need of taking a 400-500$ preamp with me, same for basses etc. Give it a try and see whether it works for you.

I have just bought the joyo to emulate some DG tones..I also have a b7k ultra clone that sounds incredible and have just bought a used DG b7 x ... First impressions of the Joyo ..holy hell can it produce some immense low end.... I'm not sure I like the distortion circuit in it as much as the B7 stuff...but in the UK at the moment you can get the Joyo for £62 (Amazon may 2024) and the AO ultra is £399 that is 6.65 times more expensive.....sorry but if your into the AO distortion circuit you'd have to be crazy to go for the DG at that price point. My B7 X is coming tomorrow and I can't wait to see how it compares to my b7k ultra... So for live use I think I'm going to be using the Joyo purely for low end in one chain and use the 2 B7s for my dirty tones.... Oh and I love that buying cheap knock offs has led me to buy the real deal...it's a win win...

Darkglass is a very innovative company that has spent the time and money on research and development to bring us these great sounding pedals. Joyo just copied them without the R&D cost. It is like someone stealing your original music and profiting without paying you royalties. Imitators destroy creators!

EQ can make anything sound like anything. Noise is the other thing to worry about.

well yeah, but you would need a very precise EQ, more precise than any pedal option

EQ should be our go-to tool, but EQ can't match the nonlinear characteristics of a circuit.

$200+ is a lot for any overdrive. On a stage, no one will care. If they do, it's not $140 worth. Darkglass would probably sell more pedals if they had a lower price point.

Darkglass cost as much as they do because only they sound like that. If nobody cares what you use, might as well go on stage with no bass at all

Joyo are so cheaply built and break, mine combusted into ash on stage and fire evacuated the venue, all 12 of us had to stand outside in the rain.

having pulled apart a stack of Joyos to see how they tick, i completely disagree, they're just as well made as any other mass produced brand

@lysdexiar31 I build pedals and I've pulled Joyos apart too, they are machine soldered and the solder will pop undone with climate changes, the PCBs are thin and will crack if dropped, the switches are cheap, the wires are thin and cheap, the jacks are cheap and even the alloy the cases are made of are cheap and malleable. Joyo are cheap, poor build quality and unreliable.

Except, Joyo is part of Chinese communist plan to blatantly steal profits from the west using slave (and near-slave) labor. I can’t judge, I already own at least 1 Joyo product.

Good riddance? The bass world would be much worse off without DG pushing distortion design in innovative directions. Joyo certainly isn't doing it.
