Behringer HB01
First of all let me start with the Behringer stereotype. Over the line of Behringer products there are some who really surprise us, some on the bright side, others on the down side. This one falls right in the middle. But we will get to that later. Regarding the flimsy Behringer materials normally used in their pedals this one actually feels solid, although its main chassis is made of plastic, the bottom is steel. The optical rocker is quite a nice feature for a Wah with this price. Now, here's the thing that made me regret buying this pedal, the rocker has practically no headroom, it's almost as if it is fully trebbly or fully bassy, there's no middle, so it kinda lacks the "Wah-Wah" of a Wah Pedal.

Not a good wah
The effect is very shallow and doesn’t provide a nice, juicy “waaaaaaah” all across the range. It’s more of a “wa” with a low pass after that.

Behringer Hellbabe
Having had chance to play the Hellbabe for a month, I have to say that although Behringer have tried to cram in as many features in the pedal as they could to compete, apparently, with the Dunlop Crybaby From Hell, unfortunately the pedal leaves a lot to be desired. While Behringer tend to specialize in budget pedals - and by budget I don't necessarily mean bad quality as just budget - the Hellbabe has one major flaw: the wah sweep is almost non-existent. I've researched online and found out that the pedal can be modded to improve it a lot but what is the point in all the effort if one can spend a little extra and buy a better one? The pedal is great in the features department, disregarding its molded plastic casing, but the actual wah effect is rather weak or at least such is my perception. I mean, even compared to a basic Dunlop Crybaby, the wah sweep is so shallow that you wish you could dig under your foot. I suppose Behringer will improve the HB in the future.
