Harmonica Pedal Review: JOYO “AMERICAN SOUND” Roly Platt
See below for links & more more info….
I recommend using a Direct box (DI) if going straight into a PA (no amplifier). It will maintain the signal better. I’m including a couple of links below to Direct box options as well:

Greetings from Germany ????
Hi, so can you put this directly to an amp?
Sounds pretty good for a guitar pedal
I really like mine. It does get noisy as the amp simulator is turned up. Anybody else have that problem?
I was sure there will be guitar after talks))
Awesome thank you ????????
Thank you. Already have one???? Thanks for your help. Very useful video.???????????????????????? I did subscribe.
Very helpful demo, Roly! Thanks!
I'm looking forward to the A/B comparison between this pedal and a head of lettuce, which I'm sure you can make sound great! ????
Be well!
Hi Roly I've just got a d.i. to the computer but can't get sound out of the speakers, can I ask how you have yours configured. Many thanks
Hello Roly, I'm Alessandro from Italy.
I really like the tone that you get from this setup. I also have a Joyo american sound and i'm experimenting with it, the harmonica and several mics. I'm looking for advice because i'm going to use the Joyo AS into a PA through a DI box but i'm not able to decide which mic to use between the Samson R21S (Low Z) and the Superlux D112 ( High Z). In your opinion, which is best for the above mentioned setup? Thank you
Very good Harpsound. Incredeble.!!! Wich microphone and amp do you play? I want see it. ????
je l a trouve tres bien ,je l accompagne d une pedale equalizer rien quand reglant les mediums c est super
on a un son blues ou sature suivant reglage,elle souffle si on la pousse!
je suis content de votre avis sur cette pedale
So let me see if I have this correctly. I can go from the pedal directly into the PA with a standard instument cable 1/4 in. jack and bypass the need for an amp? I read somewhere that you need to go through a DI box? Thank you.
Just got one and love it. you really do need to run it through a DI box as you say. Much more controllable. I tried it through my trusty 520 dx shure mic and the hohner harp blaster SE with a low to high impedance transformer to the JOYO then DI to my fishman acoustic amp. I prefer the Shure mic Finally got that Rick Estrin sound
Been using this as my direct for all guitars on my backing tracks for years. Bought it for peanuts, it's a bargain sleeper!
Thank Roly I was going to get one of those rocking Ron pedal but this seems like a better deal. ????
I just shared a link to your video with Tomlin’s school. I have one and love the simplicity when playing through a PA – just add reverb.
Well…
in Poland it is often said that small is beautiful… hehehe… sounds good for something you can put in your pocket. Blues technology moves forward! We are waiting for more great videos!!!!!
Outstanding pedal, blown through one for a few years. great bang for the $ and built tough.
The joyo American sound is a clone of the tech 21 blonde pedal. I have a joyo American sound pedal that I use for guitar for a while now and I just dusted it off to try with harp. I wonder how the other joyo Oxford, British, AC tone would work for harp?
