Thank you for this review. I have been shopping around for a new djenty pedal and I'm now sold on this one. A very appreciated comprehensive review. Thank you.
Hi Ashray, Thank you heaps for checking out this video. It's a powerful little pedal, which a decent amount of options. Hopefully you find my other videos helping and informative.
Thanks Animal Mother, it's a pretty rad pedal for such a tiny pedal. I haven't brought it out for a while now, I think I'm due for another video with it paired with different equipment to see how it can sound.
i play 8 and 7 strings and detuned 6's ever since i picked up guitar, and the djent tone for us teenage metal heads in the early 90's late 1989 etc. was this 'djent' tone , in the stores trying to find amps to play it and produce it store owners and associates noticed the tone, they said it was kind of 'jenty' and we looked and said yeah that sounds like the word that it sounds like, i just wondered how they knew of this sound as we were always trying to capture it, they said it was "kind of - jenty" when you make the sound of the word 'j-e-n-t' sound it out. . .sjhjugh eeeehhhhh nnnnntttttttt' that is literally what the guitar tone sounds like shjjjjughhhh eeeeeehhhhhh nnnnnttttttt. it has the chug that is vowel like, and the eeeehhhhh that is vowel like and the hit and percussive and textured violin pick attack and bite at the end and there is clarity all between and palm mute and ringing singing tone so all bases covered it is the most dynamic flexible in use one all sound, just saying, that is why we tried so hard chasing it with everything literally made that we could try in a music store, hard to find if looking for an end product like this one, it is usually fabbed with things like dimebag put things on a randall to get it to do what he wanted. This is the best way. however i am suprised at how usable this pedal seems to me right now, so i am going to give it a try through a 2x12 and my solid state 15 watt head. thanks..
Thanks for sharing, tones have gone through such a long journey. Let us know how you go with pedal through your 2 x 12. That's what I use and I like the tone. I use it more for my drop c tuning compared to using my 7 string.
I'd be willing to bet that this pedal's circuit shares some components with the pre section of the (now discontinued) 5 watt Hotone Heart Attack micro amp head. I'd love to open one up to see if there are any internal trim pots.
I didn't realize the Hotone Heart Attack was discontinued... I'm glade I got one when I did then. The Djent pedal is a pretty powerful little pedal, I've gotten some pretty rad sounds out of it using it under different circumstances. I'm not confident enough to open them up and know what I'm looking at...

I'd love to open one up to see if there are any internal trim pots. If you want something that absolutely djents in this price range, for about $10 to $15 dollars more you can get a Biyang Metal End, which completely smokes this pedal in tone and features. This one actually is pretty good for it's size and simplicity through.
I didn't know they discontinued the heart attack... I'm glade I got my hand on one... I haven't tried the biyang metal end pedal before, I'll have to keep my eyes out for it.
Biyang Metal End does not smoke this pedal because it doesn't sound djent at all. The metal end is a metal zone type of pedal. a great pedal but it does not djent.
Great video. I bought this pedal because of your video. Thank you for the review. My two cents, it isn't easy to dial the hotone djent and because of the low end boost and saber knob being small, I feel like the changes in presence are subtle. You need high volume and a good speaker to really notice the subtle changes. the tone switch also has a subtleness to it. You can hear it in this video, when he changes the knobs but the changes are very subtle. I think it needs an eQ boost for the high end in the end. layering the different selections would fill out the sound in production.
Subscribed bro, me and you cud possibly create some hilarious metal head comedy, usually ppl don’t make me laugh cuz I’m typically the one making ppl roll on the floor while they rip their own faces off due to the extreme hilarity!! Duncan Hills Coffee!! Ur awesome bro!! I’ll be trusting ur input from here forth my good sir!! After piddling around with the tones of the pedal I now call ur opinions in which I find parallel to mine I have decided, ur bloody hilarious mate!! If u try it out on performance amp and it does better please state a quick comment in the near future please and thank u!! Stay cool my metal brethren
That is a really good question! I think the Djent has more settings are variance to it compared to the whip... My first thoughts would be to go for the Djent pedal.
Its a pretty rad little distortion pedal. I like its shaping options it has. It's not quite as punchy or boosting to really push the djenty sound, as a saturated distortion... it's really rad.
Thank you for checking out my channel. As cool as this little pedal is, this is one of my first bunch of videos I attempted. Hopefully the newer videos I upload will be more entertaining and informative for you.
Thank you! It's a challenging thing talking to the camera trying to share experiences with people that you hope to watch and enjoy haha. 3 years into making videos on this channel and still have lots I want to improve on.
Yes in most of my videos. I feel I've gotten a better balance over time and have a much better flow these days. It took me a while to find my feet creating videos on RUclips, and I still have a long way to go.
Thanks for chiming in. It's hard to have a conversation about this pedal withing talking haha. Plus, I left bookmarks so you could skip to the Jamming part to hear what it like in a full mix that you are more than welcome to use ;)
It's nice to put them through the test to see how the handle different situations. :) And it didn't go to bad. It has enough saturation, so you would just need to dial it in slightly differently and add some delay.
It's about having a conversation my friend. As well as this is one of my very early videos, I like to think I've built on my skills in front of the camera since filming this.

Hells yeah man, this is the best video review I found on this pedal so far!

absolutely love your thoughts and your honest comments, this is the channel I’ve definitely been looking for. subscribed for sure.
Thank you RDR2, really happy you are enjoying my videos. I hope you keep getting entertained and something out of them.

Thanks Dave, I'm really happy you got something out of this video. It is a very rad little pedal!
Buena informacion , me parece genial que tenga traduccion . from México
Thank you very much LuIX. I'm happy you enjoyed it. From Australia!
Im torn between this or the ckk destruction pedal.
I haven't used CKK destruction pedal before. I would love to get my hands on one to try.
The Djent pedal has a lot of punch for such a small pedal.

Thank you! It's a nifty little pedal!
Feel free to contact me on Facebook and we can chat about collaboration.
Which one u choose? This one or hotone whip?
For all around music, not just metal
That is a really good question! I think the Djent has more settings are variance to it compared to the whip... My first thoughts would be to go for the Djent pedal.
@@metalprognosis allright, i think i will search this djent
Thx bro
Did u used it on bass too?
I haven't used it on bass yet. If I were to use it on bass I would have to roll back the gain a lot.
I use the dark glass pedal for my bass tone. :)
Thanks! The darkglass is a real great pedal for bass
Just bought this. No idea what the hell I'm doing. Should be fun.
It's a pretty rad little pedal. You'll have lots of fun with it.
I think it sounds good.
Its a pretty rad little distortion pedal. I like its shaping options it has. It's not quite as punchy or boosting to really push the djenty sound, as a saturated distortion... it's really rad.
I fell asleep(

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
I appreciate you giving the video a shot.
you talk more than you play
Yes in most of my videos. I feel I've gotten a better balance over time and have a much better flow these days. It took me a while to find my feet creating videos on RUclips, and I still have a long way to go.
Like they yell in Monty Python GET ON WITH ITtwist knobs and play, stop talking ffs
6 minutes in... 16 more to go, I had to jog off.
Thanks for chiming in. It's hard to have a conversation about this pedal withing talking haha. Plus, I left bookmarks so you could skip to the Jamming part to hear what it like in a full mix that you are more than welcome to use ;)
It's a rythem pedal, not for leads.
It's nice to put them through the test to see how the handle different situations. :)
And it didn't go to bad. It has enough saturation, so you would just need to dial it in slightly differently and add some delay.
CH USA Music What are you talking about, djent rhythm is a lead.
Is this a joke?
No, that was not the intention. If you found humour in this video to be entertained, awesome.
U talk too much... Y
It's about having a conversation my friend.
As well as this is one of my very early videos, I like to think I've built on my skills in front of the camera since filming this.
