If you're a kid with a tight budget and you're in a punk band, this is the perfect pedal for you.
Or an adult with debts or a ***** ex wife lol
@@emaheiwa8174 🤣
I earn good money but would still consider buyng of these since they are good enough and i dont need an expensive original one..i also have some of them for guitar already, they sound awesome
Kind of where I am tbh
Im scared
I suggest a blind demo of your overdrive pedals. The results are always hilarious to me. Most people are wrong.
My thoughts exactly!! It's just snobbery.
Yaksonator ill play tjrough anything and come out smelling like roses, no matter how cheap.
@@geoorobo1549 I've noticed in some cases the $40 pedals sound the best, as opposed to the $150 and up.
@@michaelb.42112 Yeah, I’ve noticed quality dropping in the actual name brand pedals, since they can just coast off the name alone now.
@@michaelb.42112 I have weirdly started liking the low quality pedals because I feel they give the best grungy and doom tones.
This may be the best sounding cheap bass overdrive. I think it sounds good because it maintains the low end of the signal. Gear snobs suck
I agree. Love that dirty low-end! In fact I ordered one and it would be arriving in a week or two.
I mean, Behringer just clone more expensive pedals in cheaper cases, but the circuit is the same or slightly re-voiced (maybe some expensive components get subbed out and that's what causes it?). This overdrive is just the well-loved Boss ODB-3 but with a plastic case.
@@ck2music712 that's what music is about, using the sounds YOU like, not what everyone else says is """""good"""""
I really love the BOD400, I mostly use it as a guitar overdrive to get more bass and a hard feedback sound. For noise and hardcore guitar stuff, it's a really cool pedal.
i honestly really like the synthetic sound
Edit: i bought it and for the price i payed for it im in love
Same here I love that dirty low-end. Hopefully once I'm able to combine it with my Behringer BDI 21, I'll be able to come up with better sounds.
@@Metalbass1979 Well if a Sansamp and a Boss Bass OD can get along as I saw in a vid then m pretty sure the BDI21 and the Behringer Bass OD would come out the same. Aside from they are both clones of those units, they share the same brand! Hehehe. \m/
@@Metalbass1979 Finally tested it with the BDI21 and it's awesome! Combined with it, the BOD400 sounds so much fuller! \m/
Funny stuff, ive seen a lot of people comment here and there that the synthetic tone is because is digital, but this stuff is 100% analog
I’m not a gear snob by any means. I thought it sounded really great. The intro of this vid made me want to buy it off Amazon right away!
hi Patrick, i've been using that pedal for 5 years now, hard to get good pedals in Peru, it works good for giving the bass some character, like a clean blend with some drive but you can reall boost the lows exceptionally well with this thing, like you said it has some really good tones, so if you are looking for something that can give some spunk and huge lows to your tone, 25 bucks is not that bad
First pedal I ever got for my bass.
Same
Is it good?
Being a bassist from the 60's-70's that's some mean slapping oh and thanks for showing the settings
Sounds like the boss overdrive which at first I didnt like but I found the more subtle I set the pedal it was very useful. Probably the same with this pedal. For rock stuff i usually run the overdrive all the time set super low for a little separation in the mix. This would probably be good for that.
I get the synthetic sound and don’t disagree, I’ve had it on my gigging board for two years now, and amazed that it holds up the way it does! Put it behind a decent preamp or for that matter even just a decent compressor and it pulls out most of that synthetic quality, and for anyone looking, Patrick said it best; there’s a lot of surprisingly useful tones
Got one of those as a christmas present a few years ago.
It's not my kind of sound, especially since I bought a Big Muff at the same time.
But I still use it as a high frequency booster with the gain/blend rolled off (:
I've had this pedal for about 2 years now and there have been numerous times after a show where people come up to me and ask how I get my tone, the only other pedal I have is a Bass Big Muff
I kinda dig the sound you got in this video. Nothing to rave about but it's surprisingly good
This is my second pedal for Bass and I like it. My first one is a used Morely Wah Pedal. My third pedal is also Behringer. It is a reverb delay combo pedal. I also have a Boss Loop Station pedal. Now I am looking for a Chorus Pedal, an Octave Pedal, Possible distortion pedal, some tremolo, Hazer, and Flanger.
Nice find, i see this all over the place but plastic scares me. I use the ODB-3 as my only effect for basseroo. My trick is to keep the gain knob very low, blend at 9 o'clock, and a slight bass boost/teb cut for a sweet fizz. Not a "blow out yer ears" kind of vibe. A lot of people blast the gain knob and that is not my cup of tea for bass anyway. Nice vid Patrick, see you in the next one!
Same settings I use with my ODB-3! More subtle but it works. Think mine might be faulty though - I have to crank the level wayy up, to level-match against the bypassed signal. How about you?
No way... Was just considering getting one of these and this video comes out...
Its actually sounds alright. I thought your glasses were gonna fly off bro XD.
The casing might be cheaper but circuitry is pretty similar in some cases.
That pedal was the very first bass pedal that I got to use. A friend lent it to me a decade ago to play around with and I remember being very, very happy with the sounds I got from it. Especially since I was mostly playing Muse tunes then which the pedal helped with capturing the fuzz/OD tones. Very fun pedal at the right price for both beginner and veteran players!
You say synthetic, I say awesome. Unless you're playing in a band with no guitar player, I don't think it's a big deal. With some eq adjustment or add it with another distortion pedal to boost the overdrive, I think it sounds fine. I just bought a used one for $15 after watching this video. I already had a bass attack 2 for minor tube warmth on my pedal board. I hooked this up before the bass wah, and adjusted it to add more crunch and thought it sounded pretty good. Now I have one pedal for slight overdrive and one more a much heavier effect.
Excelente video. Yo tengo 1 igual. Para lo que cuesta suena super bien y sobre todo si duran.
That ray is killer.
All my bass stuff is pretty much Behringer I love their inexpensive alternatives
The Behringer pedals are pretty sturdy. I'm pretty sure that the shell is composite material so it's a good bit heartier than plastic. You have to really abuse these things before they'll break.
I have to say I like this a lot.
This pedal just became $19 on Sweetwater!
It sounds great! A bit like an MT-2!
You can use de mic input of a cheap PC to get distorted and will sound amazing.
The synthetic sound is cool tbh
wow this might be my first pedal
Behringer bought TC Electronics, so any of the Behringer sounds that you like can be found as TC reissues with a far more durable chassis. They're also still positioned as "budget" pedals, so you can get them for around 70$ CAD.
Not any, no. But a few of them, yeah definitely.
Nihl Echo I believe that the Cinders OD and Rusty Fuzz are new designs, but you're right. All the others in the new series are Behringer pedals in reliable enclosures
Even his clean tone sounds amazing. My wallet hates you, Patrick. ❤️
I just picked one of these up, replaced a Boss ODB-3 I had to sell last year when I ran out of cash - grabbed it cheap off Amazon with a voucher and it arrived, but I have to say, overall, I'm not that impressed. It's taken a lot of effort to get it sounding even remotely close to what I was looking for, but at the same time, it does what it says on the tin and at £20 in the UK, I can't really complain. But, I'll be looking to sell this on later in the year and probably go back to a Boss ODB. Do like Behringer Pedals though, I love the Behringer BEQ and Behringer BDI pedals - especially the BDI, was looking to get a SansAmp, but then decided to try the BDI, and it's fucking great! Just jumping on videos to try and see other peoples settings for the BOD, cheers for the video dude. Have a like, and a nice day.
Anyone know a tab for the riff he plays when changing the knobs and dials
Sounds sweet
Check out the Behringer Super Fuzz. $25. Nasty but with thick, smooth subs. I've played a lot of Superfuzz/Standard Fuzz/Hyper Fuzz style pedals, and that one really holds up.
was my first pedal, it still has a place on my pedal board, i never found the sound to be "fake" for a lack of better words it sounds "overdriven" to me, that beeing said musik is art and art is up to taste.
Can I mix the OD 400 with the SF 300 Behringer to get the ultimativ Distortion metal sound with a wah-pedal 🤘🏼
I would have liked to hear it with the blend knob more to the dry side. Can it do a "dusting" of distortion? Anything subtle?
I really like to use this into the Behringer CL9 to get a nice Electric Wizard sound on a budget. 😌
Does the pedal compress your tone/or signal as it goes to work coloring the sound?
Check out the Marshall Jackhammer! They sound great for bass, are very well built and are great quality. And best of all, the used market is flooded with them for under $30!
Really? I've been looking for them on Ebay for the past few YEARS and can't find any that cheap.
Pois o Mike Dirnt usa precision bass com palheta da um som de Overdrive ok?
it IS synthetic, any pedal is. But is hear what you mean... lol. I think this is a killer sound for the price, (It is better than the "scrambling" effect built into my ampeg..
In a band situation, in a pub or even a hall or BBQ I don't belive anyone could tell the difference between this an a "boutique" pedal. If your a discerning and exigent "bedroom" player....I reckon if bass players had this 40 or 50 years ago it would have been gold! I have one of these and expensive ones, we must stop this pedal snobery. This is a bloody good pedal period , and for $25! Am I on the right planet?!
I play bass at church, and I go straight into a DI, I’d love to find a decent pedal to help me boost the tone, and give me a little more control over the EQ, would this be helpful for that? Or would an EQ pedal serve me better?
Hi dude, i play with a Behringer BDI21 and it's also a great copy of the Sansamp Bass Driver, for 30€.
It's pretty good! But I prefer Dr J Sparrow DI. Even more convincing BDDI copy.
I have one and use it with my VT Bass Deluxe and my Darkglass B3k. It seems stupid but sounds amazing.
if it works, then it's not stupid!! Behringer Tube Overdrive sounds pretty good on bass too...
hello which adapter do u use is it 9v and 1a valued?
Try the Joyo JF-14 American Sound. Very cheap (around $40 shipped) and sounds killer on bass!
I've heard good things about that one before.
Nihl Echo ---- The Joyo American, British, and California all sound great with bass (well-built and CHEAP!)
i had one i use a lot with my fender precision mexican i get a sansamp bass driver and man i missed a lot my joyo american sound because he sounds more agreesive and the gain its gnarly sansamp is so clean
I have a British Sound. What do you guys do about the horrid noise that comes out the other end?
careful with the character knob, do not crank it too high....
I d'nt love the Behringer products, but this is 👍👍👍👏
please do the boss bass overdrive odb-3
Cool bass lick! Thanks for the quick review on the effects pedal. I'm going to go ahead and buy one. I got a Behringer Ultrabass 3000 amp and think they would be compatible with each other
How is everything going with that ultrabass 3000?
I actually have a Behringer BDI21. Hopefully it would get along with this pedal which will arrive in my doorstep in a week or two.
i would imagine at the 4 minute mark is what kind of sound this pedal would be best used for... if using sparingly i can see this being an option. trying to find a good OD pedal for the $
Getting one anyways for my bassist cause he needs one.Will sound great with Morley wah.
Your bassist should thank you. Patrick is just stuck on it being made by Behringer. Perfect tone for stacking too, good call on the Morley
Every bass pedal should have a bal/blend knob. It's not expensive and it's mandatory to me (for bass).
I started modding some of my pedals to add a blend knob but I'm not an expert and make them need an additional power supply. Plus, I'm afraid using my soldering iron on expensive pedals.
Anyway, I still enjoy your vid a lot. Keep going!
Is that Sterling Ray bass yours ???
In a band situation, in a pub or even a hall or BBQ I don't belive anyone could tell the difference between this an a "
Edit: I bought another.
Even if you don't go head over heels for it, it's a fun pedal. I gave mine to a friend that was playing in a band and it sounded great live. Personally, I love it and I will snag another.
Was the pedal bad?
@@user-cg8cf4om4d no. I bought another. Worth the money.
can someone tell me the name of the rift played in the test ???
This is a very nice preamp - overdrive pedals.. it coloring our bass tones
Anyone put this on 808’s & EDM kicks?
Tone Mike Dirnt please ,on precision bass, settings please , pedal behringer bass Overdrive bod400? ????please......
I got one it's pretty good but would rather have a super fuzz
Sooo when you click the link in the description, it costs around $50. Not $25.
lol well this video is over 3 years old now
Patrick, esse pedal da pra fazer o timbre do Mike Dirnt do Green Day?
Mike usa la distorsión de su amplificador, hay videos recreando su sonido, busca;) es súper parecido
cara, da um Google no equipamento dele e vê o que ele usa
Could this pedal get motorhead bass sound? If not could you tell me a cheap on that will ? Thx
Considering the fact that Lemmy played on a guitar amp, if you want his tone, just une a guitar distortion pedal ;)
@@francky4549 lemmy played on a marshall bass amp... but the suggestion for guitar pedals is a good one... pedals that go after the marshall sound are where you should be looking... i've had some good results from the marshall jackhammer
Just ordered one of these, had it come in today, and for the half hour that I've been playing with it so far, I like it for $25. The synthetic sound doesn't really come through in the video like it does IRL, which kinda makes it a no-go for recording unless someone knows how to filter it out, but I could see this working pretty well in a live scenario.
Did yours come with a power lead?
@@bedroxzbass4706 no, just the pedal in the box, but luckily I already had a power supply.
sounds pretty close to felix pappalardi fuzz tone to me
bro, honestly... it sounds pretty good! there are lots of shitty pedals around 89usd or more... that “agro” is a pretty lame pedal, and expensive... the same applies to the ampeg scrambler... this behringer’s plastic boots kicks their fancy metal asses up and down the street.
I recently got an ampeg scrambler 85 pound it cost and I've never bin so disappointed. This behringer one sounds loads better
I agree, the high/low cut/boost make this pedal absolutely rock
is this good for guitars too?
This one is for bass but they have the same line of pedal for 25 bucks for guitar I own there compressor and sustain pedal and is ok nit the best but for 25 I can complain
Caline - CP-60 Wine Cellar also cheap and good bass pedal with blend knob.
I was actually deciding whether to buy that or the Behringer BDI21. Unfortunately stocks ran out for the Wine Cellar so I ended up with the BDI21. No regrets though as it is one great Sansamp clone!
@@juancarlosjasa7047 I living in China, Behringer BDI21 and Caline CP-60 price gap is big. BDI 21 $48.18, CP-60 $29.37. Both are made in China. My CP-60 deliver today and I also order CP-62 Snake Bite (reverb).
Caline has another Bass Driver + DI pedal name as CP-59

Check your ears before you start talking about imaginary synthetic noises coming from an amazing pedal.
I totally agree. I would love to try a blind test with some of these idiots. I bet their responses would embarrass them! LOL
Most of the time, the synthetic tone is caused by the eyes seeing a cheap looking pedal.
An overdrive pedal reviewed by a dude that doesn't understand overdrives, what's the frikkin' point??
Your bass tone in this demo wasn't from a MusicMan bass, you're not fooling me xD
yea sounds ok just like a boss should. but you must be talking about the famous Boss fizz. to me It's more like the high frequency that is always there or something. It's like it is in all their dirt pedals or something. Even with a blind fold I hear it.It's not really bad ,But you can recognize it. I should know, own every od and distortion ever made .Yep even the HM2 and xt and Od20. Boss distortion gets a lot of hate. But to each their own
For someone who said fake,synthetic(like 3-4 times),blatant,25 dollars(3-4 times)...sure looked like he was enjoying that pedal.
I agree! ;)
Do a blind test video... It sounds like it's worth a lot more than $40 or $50.
Great video! 🙌🏼💯
Sounds like the fuzz pedal
What if you have been playing 30 years and on a budget?
No no no no no, all deep respect Patrick but it's not as underwhelming as you think-- you have to work it. Plus it's not that much like an ODB 3 (which actually does kind of suck so that's a good thing...)
And one other thing, again with praise and respect, work it with other pedals, boosts and drives in front, in front of different preamps, etc. In front of a good B-15 pedal or a full plate voltage tube pre it's fantastic. Put it in front of a Sansamp VT, dial 'em in. Put modulation after.
I wish it were feasible for creators to do pedal demos with combos. For example, the Ancient Muff Fuzz For Bass Chase which always ends in tears over lost low end. Put a Rat in front of the muff. Trust.
I think the biggest issue with these behringers Is the risk of deep street cred loss and they look like they got pulled out of an Easter basket. It's regrettable. But this one and the Super Fuzz are totally underrated. Put your best engineer on, invoke Juan Alderate de le Pena, and tweek those knobs man
I think you just shot just unintensionally shot yourself in the foot with your comentary, the sound is good...Do you work for Boss? ;)
This pedal is great, but honestly just get a big muff
Tanxs man! I will comprar no lugar do odb e o resto vou gastar de cocaína no carnaval.
😂😂😂😂
Bass fuzz!
The 'good sounds' that I get out of it (obviously very biased about what 'good' is) are when the balance/mix knob is set to about 70% dry. Then you just add in a bit of the overdrive sound with as much gain as your sound calls for & BAM! Decent overdrive bass. The tone controls affect both drive and clean, which pisses me off. I want my clean to be clean... But again, for anyone needing something decent on the cheap, it's totally legit. Massive plus with this one is that you don't lose low frequencies.. even with a 5-string. A LOT of pedals that bassists typically use for dirt roll so much low end off....
I don't like the sound of that pedal, but one thing is sometimes wrong with these Behringer pedal reviews. Those so serious negative comments about plastic covers, why? User must be crazy or what is more sadly, idiot if he/ she breaks it.
Sounded decent with just a pinch of gain like at 3:50. But yeah, sounds kind of garbage with high gain. The Boss sounds way better, watching other videos. Nice playing, btw, sounds real good.
I love a lot of Behringer gear but the best sound from this pedal is bypass 🤔
JHS pedals which builds them did a video on behringers and they are mostly exact clones, same circiuts. This guy is listening with is eyes. Its a clone of the Boss pedal in a plastic case.
Cheers man! The plastic "blows" the mind and it seems that ears fall into illusions.

Solo hablan mal del pedal, pero en realidad a mi me gusta el sonido, compralo
Would be nice if Behringer pedals were still $25. Now they're at least twice the price.
just this minute ordered one . just can't warrant paying £ 215 for a sansamp ,,, If it's pants well,,, it was only £20
You said OBD instead of ODB-3. WU-TANG FOREVA
I’ve got this and the Boss. The Boss is a lot better. Still not amazing compared to more modern drives, but still a lot better.
Too much treble, it sounds like your frying something in oil.
NUX have a copy of the ibanez bass tube screamer called the bass scream, as well as an all original bass preamp/di called the Martin Lee Davis Signature. Way better then this behringer crap.
Hello Patrick, nice review again. May I suggest you the review of the t0800, tube screamer clone, this one got nice rating on web, and works probably fine with a bass. Here an example ruclips.net/video/107DB8EJkQc/видео.html
Scott Pilgrim.
Goober.
