    Heavy Metal Distortion Effects Pedal

    • Take off with the most extreme and sought-after hard rock or heavy metal distortion
    • This BEHRINGER product has been designed to compete head to head with leading products on the market
    • Multi-gain circuitry to give you super-thick, tube-like distortion plus endless sustain
    • Dedicated Distortion, 3-band EQ and Level controls for awesome sound shaping
    • Blue status LED for effect on/off and battery check
    • Runs on 9 V battery or the BEHRINGER PSU-SB DC power supply (not included)

    In the churning, smoldering world of heavy metal, it's the middle frequencies that make the difference between mush and muscle. With the UM300 ULTRA METAL, you not only get take control of the Mids, you micromanage them!

    Metal to the Max

    The UM300 effects pedal gives you the most extreme, sought-after hard rock and heavy metal sounds with super-thick, tube-like distortion - plus virtually endless sustain.

    The Art of Tone

    Like most distortion stomp boxes, the UM300 comes with DISTORTION and LEVEL controls. And the HIGH and LOW controls let you dial in the amount of top-end and bottom you desire. But the similarity to other stomps ends right there. Much like our world-class mixing consoles, we've given the UM300 a MID FREQ control, allowing you to select a midrange frequency (from 200 Hz to 5 kHz) and boost/cut it by up to 15 dB (that's a lot!). What this means, in terms of tone, is thick, tube-like distortion with endless sustain, for everything from aggressive, traditional metal assaults to bone-crunching mayhem.

    A bright blue LED tells you when the UM300 is active, while a top-quality on/off switch maintains highest signal integrity in bypass mode. You can power the UM300 with our PSU-SB DC power supply (not included), or pop in a 9 V battery.

    Massive in the Middle

    Is there a hole in the middle of your tone? You'll be surprised how affordably and efficiently the ULTRA METAL UM300 can fill that void. See your BEHRINGER dealer today.

    Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the guitar effect device. Some mention that the sound is exactly what they wanted, and the controls feel good. Others say that it sounds OK when heavily distorted, but they noticed a high-pitched hiss whenever. The overall tone of the Hellbabe is fine, but the limited range of motion on the pedal itself. That said, some say that the tone is right there with the big brands, while others say that its slightly inferior overdrive sound compared to an original Ibanez. They also complain that it gets a little noisy when increasing the sustain, and there is a hum and pop in the signal chain.

    Customers are not happy with the material of the guitar effect device. They mention that the housing is hard plastic instead of aluminum, the case is thick plastic instead, and it feels very sturdy. Some say that the quality isn't bad, but it's a heavy thick molded plastic feel.

    "...The case is plastic so might not be the most durable pedal for live performances, but to me the sound is well worth the $30...." Read more

    "...Yes, this thing is injection molded plastic, but it feels very sturdy...." Read more

    "...Despite the qualms about the plastic enclosure and the slightly inferior overdrive sound compared to an original Ibanez TS808, there is no denying..." Read more

    105 customers mention10 positive95 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the battery capacity of the guitar effect device. They mention that it drains the battery even when the pedal is not on, it eats battery power quickly, and the battery works for a little bit and then goes off. The adapter included, but the thing will kill a 9V battery if you do not unplug it. The battery access is cumbersome, and battery replacement isn't intuitive.

    "...you'll want to use an external power supply with as the battery access is cumbersome. but all in all this pedal is a great value for the money." Read more

    "...And remember, batteries don't last forever. As the battery reaches the end of its useful life, you will begin to hear unpleasant distortions...." Read more

    "...that if you use 9V batteries you must unplug the units as they eat battery power and 9V's can be expensive." Read more

    Fantastic level-boosting pedal for a tighter heavy metal sound
    5 Stars
    Fantastic level-boosting pedal for a tighter heavy metal sound
    I bought this pedal because I always heart that Tube Screamers were great for making an amp's distortion sound even tighter and heavier sounding when used as a level booster. This pedal did not disappoint when combined with my Orange Micro-Terror amp that I have running into a Dean Markley 4x12 cabinet. The amp by itself sounds fantastic and it could "chug" a little bit by itself. it wasn't ideal, but it sounded good with a very unique sounding but rich distortion. This pedal however took that overdrive to the next level and made the distortion vastly tighter sounding where palm muted "chugging" sounded absolutely massive and very very tight sounding. It also just made the distortion richer sounding when the gain on the pedal is set to about 10% and with the tone and level knobs on the pedal maxed out.So yeah I am absolutely blown away by how good this pedal makes my little Orange amp sound. It truly sounds now like a $2,000 all-tube amp rig with a massive ballsy amp distortion.Now when used with my amp set to a clean setting, and used strictly as an overdrive, it sounds very much like most other tube screamers. So it's great for blues, country, grunge, and maybe punk. It's not really my kind of overdrive however as I prefer Boss overdrive pedals and my Danelectro Daddy-O overdrive pedal. But as a booster pedal, it's absolutely incredible.The only negative on this pedal is it's cheap plastic construction. but hey, that's why this is cheap. It's not a pedal you want to take for gigging. This is better for light use in the studio where you're not going to be stomping on it. It's also great for those curious about the Tube Screamer sound and want to experience it to see if they like it but without paying a lot of money. If you like it, you'll probably keep this little gem for studio use and buy a more expensive re-issued pedal (in a steel enclosure with heavy duty pots and switches) for gigging with.
