Harley Benton (Joyo) Classic Flanger Pedal Demo

[@LiebsterFeind]

IMPORTANT!!: If your Joyo flange starts making a slow loud whining sound like a siren falling and rising, and it doesn't go away even if you decouple the power source and restore it, *make sure you check it with a fresh battery or power supply* before returning it! It seems to do that freaky thing when it gets insufficient power, even though the LED burns strong (unlike Boss pedals whose LED's dim when the battery gets weak). I thought my unit had gone defective when it started making that sound. Turns out the battery was low on juice. Fortunately a new battery fixed it easily and now it's the same sweet sounding, quality flanger that costs way less than it should, just like when I bought it.

for a first time I didn't skip what the anchorman has to say when testing pedal. great work!

[@Albrecht777]

A surprisingly nice, full sound, ranging from subtle chorus to classic flange. Thanks for the video!

[@jjm3205]

Awesome demo! definitely one of the best pedal demos I have seen on youtube. This also goes for the rest of the joyo/harleybenton pedal series. Keep up the great work!

[@md4645]

AWESOME TEST. THANKS for complete description for all controls.

[@PeteMOBie1]

Love your demo's - very charismatic and informative. It is also good how you show pedals in a track context. Regen is best thought of as Feedback or Resonace.and is the main difference between Chorus and Flanging. Therefore a Flanger pedal can be used for both Chorus and Flanger sounds for the musos on a tight budget. The Flange is the metal tape reel. The Beetles, John Lenon used the effect by having a pair of reel-to-reel tape machines both with the same tracks, synced together and when played back pressing on the metal flange slowed one of the tape machines down slightly to get this type of effect. The Delay control is a very short deal say 3 or 4 milliseconds to 20 milliseconds.

[@EytschPi42]

Thanks Pete, very helpful. I remember the Tape Reel story from my production classes.

[@EytschPi42]

thanks, great to hear!

[@renanbrito.]

Hi Harley! So, would you recomend buying a Classic Flanger instead of a Classic Chorus pedal? I'm not sure but the Chorus pedal seems to have more dedicated chorus effect. I am thinking about buying a Joyo Chorus pedal. What would you say about? Thank you, and great video!

[@andreacaccese]

cool review :-) about the delay time, it seems to me that what it does is actually setting how fast will the flanging start from what you are playing: if you play a chord with short delay value, the flanging will be immediate, while if you you put the delay on the other side and play a chord, you can see that it takes a little longer!

[@lewis9510]

Can i get the sound of van halen with this and the hot plexi? And how do i modificate the flanger cause seems it's difficult. And you make really good reviews.

[@arthurveldhoen3932]

Bit late to this video, but the backing track that runs through it is just MEGA!!! It that yours as well? What pedals did you use for that, this flanger and what else? It sounds like old Cocteau Twins, really atmospheric. Nicely done, thank you.

[@RobinUriah0927]

I wanted to ask is their a difference between the Harley version and the joyo I found the Harley version at a shop in the uk but they want 30 pounds to ship to America I really like the dig delay and others but tring to find a cheaper way to get them to the USA , I love the Harley vt demo sounds great ......

[@EytschPi42]

You can buy the Joyo pedals... they are exactly the same

[@RobinUriah0927]

thankyou hope to see some new produts

[@ROCKSTARCRANE]

Thank GOD someone finally did one of these vids RIGHT.

[@andythrash.]

Ordered one yesterday... Pretty cheap so I thought Id give one a shot!

[@JC_0X]

works well on bass?

[@EytschPi42]

...eine 6000 Euro Gitarre und teure Amps mit guten Mikros, die in einen 2000 Euro Pre-Amp gehen, durch einen 3000 Euro Konverter... mit Pedalen betreiben, wenn ich nicht davon überzeugt wäre das die Resultate stimmen. Schau Dir einfach die Videos an und mach Dir selbst ein Bild. Deshalb spiele ich die Dinger in den Videos ja auch immer mal im Track, damit man sieht wie sie in einer realen Situation punkten können... ich bin jedenfalls überzeugt !

[@Achtungworld1]

I really love you videos man. Very informative, clear and concise. you get to learn a little background about the effect(s) history. Keep it up!

[@guitaräxl]

Hallo ist es möglich einen sound wie unchained von v.h. einzustellen?

[@hammill444]

This flanger or the TC Thunderstorm? How would you characterize the difference between the two?

[@ebu666ebu]

Thanks to You, i discovered and bought Joyo Classic Flanger and Digital Delay, also Harley Benton power plant Jr. Very good sound but i have question, when both of them are turned off signal is normal, when one is turned on volume goes down ( no matter which one) but when both of them are turned on volume again is normal. I have them placed in FX Loop in Marshall JVM 410. Did you have something similar with this pedals? I suspect that is Marshall Loop problem, but other pedals have no effect on volume such like joyo produce. By The way, perfect work with reviews.

[@EytschPi42]

That is strange, the individually influence volume, but not together... I have not discovered anything like that, sorry.

[@zentura88]

Good demo.

[@thebetterdad]

Hi, Does it have volume drop or up?

[@BobCorey]

not exactly, it takes out a lot of your low end so it is kiiiind of a volume drop

[@Bss_-eo9dn]

@@BobCorey That's odd. Mine happpens to boost the volume just a little bit, but not much. Maybe since mine is the non harley benton one with a jet on it.

[@guitaräxl]

Hallo vielen dank für die rasche antwort. habe mir nähmlich vor einigen tagen diesen flanger bestellt. bin aus österreich und egal was es ist, ich kauf nur noch bei thomann ein. da ich schon fast 30 jahre gitarre spiele (leider ohne erfolg), hätte ich eine frage.: harley benton ist ja wirklich nicht schlecht, aber sind die overdrives und distortions wirklich zu empfehlen?

[@guloguloguy]

I would suspect that Robin Trower uses a "Flanger" to great effect, on many of his famous tunes! It can be quite an interesting effect, if not overused! Thanks!!! ; D

[@strassercaster]

sorry you suspect wrong. Robin trower uses an original Shin ei univibe on bridge of sighs album. he still uses Univibe i. the chorus setting. its not really chorus though. A univibe is an out of time 4 stage phaser. so if you want that Trower sound get a univibeor a modern reproduction such as the Mojo Vibe or the deja vibe. I made my own with a circuit board from madbean pedals called the Harbingor one

[@strassercaster]

He does use a flanger for the opening riff of Day of the eagle thats it as far as I know

[@guloguloguy]

+strassercaster Thanks for the info!!! I'll have to check one out!!! .....COOL!

[@luisgoregonzalez7394]

is clon of boss flanger? Or electric misstres?

How does it work in loop?

[@guloguloguy]

....This IS an EXCELLENT product review!!! Thank you!!! (P.S. .....I loved your NAMM 2016 Carvin/Kiesel Guitar review!!!)

[@turbodistortionirmc]

Your english is exellent!

[@elguiridelondres6]

Great demo as ever. You need Thomann to give you commission!

[@luisgoregonzalez7394]

This is based exh or boss?

[@EytschPi42]

Hallo.... das sollte möglich sein... ein bisschen rumprobieren und dann geht das !

[@Pirinola47]

hi! can i use this one on my bass?

[@EytschPi42]

I really wouldn't do that!

[@Pirinola47]

because of the sound? or can i have problems with the hardware?

[@EytschPi42]

because of the sound... this thing is very bass heavy and has a lot of gain. You'll end up with a very very muddy sound.

[@Pirinola47]

Thanks for answering me! im starting with pedals.Nice videos, regards from Chile (and sorry for my english)

[@uzmeyer1752]

+EytschPi42 I have to object that. I recently bought it just for fun to try it on my bass, with the intent of giving it to our guitar guy should I dont like it as it is only 30€ Well, let's say he'll need to buy his own flanger. It sounds really nice no matter what, no gain issues and no noticeable bass heavynes. Of cours you are going to loose some deffinition, but that is to expect with any kind of filter effect. Basically it sounds exactly like I would expect from a bass flanger. I was thinking about getting a used BF-2 but this thing does everything I want and more. Subtle, chorus-like to moderate (Tools 46&2 sound can be done) up to full on jetplane and Self oscillation (which i heard the BF-2 is not that good at), that sounds really nice with some OD in front of it. So yeah, I can only recommend it to Bassist looking for a nice and affordable flanger!

[@MrLW1977]

This guy is crazy, but this is really helpful. Thank you!

[@Hagchtogow]

Always interessants videos. I appreciate the way you do it. A french guitarist (that explains my poor english😀)

[@zentura88]

I like my flangers more wooshy but this one is pretty decent... especially for $30... I was wondering about this one... Thanks!

[@2008HERI]

nice thanks

[@stevievictor]

Good.

[@juss-f4s]

eu queria só um cabeçote desse ai estaria ótimo pra mim

[@soulagent79]

Chorus and flanger are practically the same anyway.

[@EdwinAdame00]

"Ahhh cool hands!" XD

[@Mark_Williams300]

Flanging = Martial Arts? 😕
