Tak na TGP fóru už promluvil i Tore - Uliho stopa je tímhle definitivně potvrzená:
Just wanted to give a little more insight into the design of these pedals. Most of them are indeed based on some of the old Behringer pedals, but it is incorrect to say that it's a rebranding or re-housing. I gave the Behringer pedals a listen over a year ago, and truly though a lot of them sounded really good. From there the idea formed that with some work they could form the basis for a new cheaper product line... something I (and our dealers) have been wanted for years.
So here is the skinny on what has been changed from the original pedals. As you can hopefully tell, this has in now way been a quick copy/paste job... quite the contrary! The TC team in Denmark made a whole new mechanic design. We designed new mainboards to support true bypass. All the pedals have changes to their original circuits (both component and signal flow) to change the tone, add or remove knobs or switches, remove unwanted noise, etc.
In essence we've diligently gone over every single pedal and changed the things necessary to make them work and sound the way we wanted them to.
Podle dalších postů vychází najevo, že 11 ze 13 pedálů jsou předělávky starých behringerovských obvodů, 2 jsou pak zcela nové designy.
Mňo, srdce mi nad tím sice neplesá, když výborně zavedená značka sama podlézá laťku, kterou tak pracně během let na trhu nastavila, ale... Jestli levnější pedály přitáhnou ke kytaře a muzice více lidí, pak je to asi ospravedlnitelná cesta...
