  1. Yep, that’s before any custom options too. Makes the £3k for the suitcase I saw seem really cheap.
  2. Oh man, I’d love an 88-key Rhodes. An early 70s suitcase 88 came up locally during lockdown but the shop weren’t allowing visits so was unable to test it. I didn’t want to drop a load of coin on something that might’ve needed loads of work so I missed out. Still toying with ordering a new mark 8, but they are only 73 keys for now.
  3. I might technically still be in as I returned it almost immediately.
  4. These have a plethora of options. For me, the latency was too noticeable, which is often a thing in digital octavers. The TC stuff is really well featured. It’s a bit hamstrung by the rather daft method of how one loads the patches onto the pedal. Would have been so much better had they adopted MIDI PC messages via onboard preset slots. I believe it is possible to send a SysEx message to them to alter settings but that adds lots of extra hassle when having to construct the file. Source Audio’s implementation is far better.
  5. As good as this PBO is, I’ve returned it as I don’t think it gives me anything above what I can do using my current gear. That being said, if you want a one-stop shop for loads of different sounds with an easy on-pedal interface, the PBO is a pretty good choice.
  6. Will try this again. PBO 1.mp3 PBO 2.mp3 PBO 3.mp3 Not sure what the problem was there, seems that adding already-uploaded audio attachments isn’t working properly. Anyway, morphing feature on this is capable of lots of interesting stuff, including being able to engage/disengage fuzz and switch between poly/mono.
  7. Where did you get that info from? Sure the polyphonic is digital by necessity, but haven't seen any info on the mono circuit, though I guess it's likely a bit like the OC-5 in that it's a digital emulation of an analogue circuit, so it could still be made to mimic one of their own analogue designs.
  8. Definitely prefer the Octabvre in this clip. I was wondering which circuit is in the MXR, perhaps the “girth” circuit from the BDO. I was hoping they’d use the OC-2-style one from the VBO.
  9. I’ll let you know. I had an OC-5 briefly.
  10. Yep, MXR octave pedals have the best tracking I’ve come across. I’m also intrigued by the ability to morph between two distinct knob settings (on all knobs simultaneously) via expression.
  11. Got one arriving tomorrow. I blame @Jonathan Bee for breaking my gear abstinence resolve.
  12. I’m out: https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/220106379128025--mxr-m306-poly-blue-octave
  13. Fair enough. I just saw another ray 5 on Facebook today - Sod’s law.
  14. Chance to save yourself £1000 and a long wait for a new one of these…
  15. I’ve ended up buying this on CD today as I love it. Must've been a good band to see.
  16. It might end up being me (if I can sell my Lakland).😆 Glad you’re digging it.
  17. This was really cool and right up my street. Now checking out more of their stuff. Thanks for sharing, @lowdown!
