    The circuits are the same in the 808 and 808 mini. Exactly the same, on every value of every resistance and capacitance. The TS9 has a slightly different final voltage divider configuration at the very tail end of the output buffer that raises the output by a fraction of a percent, and has absolutely no impact on the tone of the signal.
    There is FAR more difference in these pedals due to the tolerances of the individual components than there is between their designs. Most of the capacitors in the filters have tolerances of 10%. You might like one TS-808 mini and hate another one because the high pass filter in the clipping stage of the circuit of one pedal is 10% higher, and 10% lower in the other, but there's no way you can predict whether a TS-808 will sound better than a TS-9 or vice versa, because they might as well be the same product.
    Also, if they did a blind test I would bet money that they couldn't tell which was which.

    • @JustinHallPlus
      @JustinHallPlus 8 лет назад +5

      kc collette Good point. They all three use two BJTs each for the input and output buffers. Now it probably wouldn't degrade the signal much, but it's probably a bigger difference than the changed resistor values in the output buffers.

    • @rldays9179
      @rldays9179 7 лет назад +5

      In the end when you are up on stage and you got your Big sky or RV6 or DD7 or whatever the difference probably wouldn't show and if it did, the user would probably change their pedal slightly to suit what they like and to suit the venue. And then as your valves warm up it may change again....or if you are an outdoor venue or...or...or.. I just got a cheap TS9 and be done with it lol

  • @MrPhilbirkhead
    @MrPhilbirkhead 9 лет назад +11

    I currently have a mini, and its really greet, but one of the best things is because it's small and narrow, you can get it nicely close to another overdrive, or distortion or clean boost like the spark boost. Then you can turn 2 pedals on and off at the same time, if necessary.

  • @caniican

    I'm 55 years old been playing since I'm 15. My first electric guitar experience around 1980 shortly thereafter a friend had a digital delay pedal then I remember a tube screamer coming in a Wawa pedal all of those with such exciting revelations in life. Then I got it Ibanez stereo chorus which I hooked up to two separate amps and I was the king of the high school scene. At least in my own mind LOL the tube screamer has such a great deep place in my heart specially because I'm a big Stevie Ray Vaughan fan but I love the ACDC type tones I've always able to count on Ibanez Tube Screamer like a solid friend. So thanks for paying such great tribute to my friend, our friend LOL

    @DeltaOracle257 8 лет назад +18

    I finally got my TS9 the other day! :D I've been trying to see what I can come up with by combining that with my MXR Super Badass distortion. At first, I wanted to have them be 50/50. Y'know, half Overdrive, half Distortion. But, now I've been trying to make the TS9 as kind of the body/core and a little bit of the MXR Super Badass to kind of add a little bit of crispness to it.

  • @Rhop
    @Rhop 9 лет назад +4

    I think the reason Rob enjoyed the Tubescreamers on a lower-tuned guitar is because a TS by nature cuts bass and bumps the upper mids up, giving those low strings a lot of definition and punch.

    thank you for mentioning the LEDs on ibanez! my main lighting tech for two years really liked how my guitar looked under red light, so my side of the stage always was hit with a couple of red cans. this meant i never knew if my TS9DX was on or off. led to some very underwhelming opening riffs and some way aggressive gentle chords to start a song.

  • @soad11dude
    @soad11dude 9 лет назад +5

    Potentiometers (Overdrive/Level/Gain) have a tolerance of +/-10% or sometimes +/-20%. So even though you have all your knobs set to 12 o'clock, they could sound "10%" different. If you want to take things to the extreme and assume that you have one stomp box with pots that are all -20%, and the one next to it has pots sitting at +20% of the given value, the pedals can sound "40%" different. There are a bunch of other factors (capacitor and resistor tolerance) that can affect it as well. I don't want to rustle everyone's jimmies. Just pointing out some electronics facts.

    • @orlock20
      @orlock20 9 лет назад +2

      soad11dude That is true and the problem is much worse with fuzz pedals because they already sit on a fine line between usable and junk. With a distortion pedal, you try a dozen different pedals. With a fuzz pedal, you may have to try 12 different pedals that are the same model.

    • @soad11dude
      @soad11dude 9 лет назад +2

      True! Fuzz pedals are usually a very simple design and don't need to be off by much to completely miss the mark and sound like ass. I'm happy I got an educated answer instead of somebody saying I'm wrong and writing an angry comment in CAPS!!!! Cheers.

    I've had tube screamers in the past. Owned the first one. looked like it fell off the back of a truck on the highway but oh so sweet. Found OCD and never looked back. Until I wanted a mini board. The mini is a real deal tube screamer. Don't be afraid to get one. it ain't no joke.

  • @JBiggsNewJersey
    @JBiggsNewJersey 8 лет назад +8

    I thought the TS9 and the mini sounded exactly the same. There was something I liked about the 808 a little more. For this kind of shootout, I really prefer blind demonstrations, like 1, 2, 3, and then a reveal at the end which clip was which pedal.

    I'm totally with Rob on this one - the TS-9 sounds the best to my ear. The mini has an interesting edge to it that could certainly work for many people and many tones, but it's not as pleasing for whatever reason. The 808 just doesn't thrill me at all.

  • @Kezzeract
    @Kezzeract 9 лет назад +25

    • @xXjuangarciaXx
      @xXjuangarciaXx 9 лет назад +25

      That's the function it was supposed to fulfill in the beginning. It's more of a boost pedal than a distortion pedal

    • @orlock20
      @orlock20 9 лет назад +5

      Juan Garcia That's true. The spectrum is overdrive (light), distortion (medium) and fuzz (heavy) and the tube screamers are marketed as over drive pedals.

    This is probably one of the most brilliant videos you've ever done. I'm not a pedal guy for getting tone, but of course I've heard about the famed "Tube Screamer" since practically day 1; so when I finally looked into it simply out of curiosity, I was confused as hell to find there are like 20 different ones! So which "one" has everyone been talking about???

    Hey Lee, you might not see this but I think better than setting up 150 different pedals for demos, set up a few different SMALL pedalboards with 5 different price points for 5 different types of pedals. In other words, get a small pedalboard with 5 overdrive pedals from cheapest to most expensive, then another small pedalboard with 5 different clean boosts, compressors, etc.
    I think it would get people to buy more pedals, personally. Buying pedals is always a weird thing in stores, at least here in the US, having to bug a salesman to go into the case and get a bunch of different pedals and set them all up for you to play, just feels like such a burden.
    Just a suggestion, from a customer of music stores!

    very similar sounding, pretty much the same. Would it even make a difference in a band/mix? probably not considering things end up getting eq'd etc. I was laughing my ass off when rob said "that one isnt doing it for me" when they sounded the same.

    • @tonepoet
      @tonepoet 8 лет назад +6

      You are absolutely correct. Only corksniffers really dissect this all to a point where it's beyond ridiculous. You audience doesn't know (or care) about the nuances that guitarists obsess over. And within a band setting..........very negligible. There are so many pedals that are variations on the Tube Screamers that really, what's the point? Sorry to rant, but you're correct.

    • @JarodGallantOfficial
      @JarodGallantOfficial 8 лет назад +5

      There comes a point when its not about the crowd. 50% of the crowd couldn't tell a 59 les paul from a guitar from toys r us. It also depends on every players individual ear. Anyone can tell the difference between an awful and a great tone, but it takes a well trained ear to hear whats great and whats better.Its also much harder to hear differences through a youtube video.
      The band point is good because it would be quite a bit more negligible in a live mix, except for the guitar player, who will play better if they think their tone is better.

      There’s zero difference between TS models. The real difference is the potentiometers used, because of the difference in resistance. This would apply to two different TS9s even. Two made in the same week by the same factory could sound fairly different from one another. It’s a very inconsistent build.

    Since this pedal is designed to feed into an amp that is overdriven, it would be great to hear it going into one of those Tone City pedals that is feeding a clean amp, like a fender deluxe. I am not a guitarist by any means, but the mini sounded kinda like the Tone City blues pedal to my ears.

    @xenod1066 9 лет назад +1

    The pedals have the same circuit. Only the 808 has a couple of different resistor values in the buffers, which may make a microscopic difference to the sound. They all sound very slightly different at noon; as likely due to minor differences in potentiometer taper as anything, so turn the knobs a fraction, and they become the same. IMO the same sounds live in each pedal. In practical terms they'll all work fine. - Personally I like the "soft clipping" of TS9-type pedals, but I'd prefer a unit designed for less noise, and without the mid-hump, or the ability to dial it out.

    Quite possibly the best tubescreamer review video on the entire internet. I've been a metal-to-11 guy for decades, but I've gotten more bluesy lately, and I'm kinda wanting a classic sounding boost-y OD pedal, and from all the comparison videos on the web, the Ibanez Tubescreamers sound the sexiest, but I was LOST as to which model of tubescreamer I should go for. From this video, my ear likes the TSmini the most. However... I test drove a used turbo TS TS9dx today,... and now I'm utterly lost again. It should be noted that I played a Mario Martin strat through it... so perhaps I'm getting seduced by the guitar more than the pedal. Never played a MM before but... Mario guitars are the SHIT!!!

  • @xxczerxx
    @xxczerxx 9 лет назад +1

    Way Huge Green Rhino is the best TS pedal in my opinion. Definitely check it out, especially those looking to tweak the 100kHz range (it has a +/- 12dB for it)

  • @unionrdr

    I found an old TS9 tube screamer for 70 frog skins at Guitar Center's web site. They let you rummage through all their stores used stuff and order it either delivered to your home or pickup at your chosen nearest. I think the mini does have more bottom warmth than the others. But the TS8 & 9 have more drive. So the old TS9, for me, is a good choice to mate with my old Dean Markley solid state K-50.

  • @markgowans
    @markgowans 4 года назад +4

    You need to do this test again with something like a Boss Katana which a lot of people have. Not everyone will be using a 2-3k amp like Rob.

    An Ewok is just a Jawa with an alternative lifestyle. I used to have a Tube Screamer (classic TS-10), but it never worked (bought for $1 at auction). So thanks for letting me know what I was missing. All of these variations are identical within the range of knob-twist error.

    Further review, it sounds great as an overdrive pedal through even some old 80s solid state amp. Most of this video was using the pedal as a boost into a tube preamp. It can be great as a boost into other pedals or after them. Boosting a distortion pedal boosts the gain. Boosting after a distortion can add some clarity. Unfortunately these yoyos don't address pedals as a modular system. Too worried about their hair and the music store.

    It's cheaper to buy a TS-9 from America even with the shipping costs, you'll save £30/£40 altogether. Andertons will rip you off. I'm in the UK and had mine sent from New York because the prices are extortionate over here. Only had to wait a week and didn't feel like I was being robbed.

    • @monabri6500
      @monabri6500 8 лет назад +1

      +ouncy It's not just pedals - its's amps and guitars - in fact - everything with 6 or more strings and related items. Look st the price of a Fender Deluxe - that's why the UK is known as Treasure Island. Oh - I bought a Bassbreaker 007 amp from Andertons for £201 and - one week later - it was £43 more - explanations other than GG and PMT were selling at this price!

    • @ouncy
      @ouncy 8 лет назад +1

      monabri Yeah man, recently bought a new strat, Andertons were selling it for £680, after a quick look over websites that aren't usually listed on google shopping, I managed to get it for £528 from a different shop. Free shipping still. Saved £150. Pretty bad to be honest.

    • @Yohahn
      @Yohahn 8 лет назад +2

      It's mostly due to taxes. When you compare the prices of andertons to chains in countries with almost the same taxes as the UK andertons are usually cheaper. If i compare the 5150 LBX here in Sweden, On Andertons and on Thomann the prices of Thomann and Andertons are cheaper then the swedish price. The price between Andertons and Thomann... Andertons(£430) and Thomann (€566) in swedish kronor £430 is 5160kr and €566 is 5250kr the only price i could find in Sweden is 5500kr. The price i find in america is $699 and that is 5820kr...
