StraightSix Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 [quote name='AttitudeCastle' timestamp='1323614662' post='1465026'] Pardon my ignorance, but can anyone recommend an Octave which offers both clean octave up and down? Does one exist? [/quote] The old Pearl range included the OC-07 Octaver which can do 2 down and 1 up - it has four level knobs, one for each octave and one to blend in the normal note. Very nice but can be pricey. The last few on Ebay varied from £65 to £118. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tompa Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 You may want to try the T-Rex Octavius. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAZimHX75Xk"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAZimHX75Xk[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ras52 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Well, thanks to the Basschat GAS effect, this thread has cost me £50 (including P&P), as I now have an OC-2 off that eBay. Nice toy - certainly. Will I use it in the heat of battle - possibly. I like the sound with octave 1 and dry at 12-o'clock. With the dry rolled off a bit and octave boosted by the same amount it might find service being punched in to fake some low notes as I haven't quite yet joined the five-string camp! I noticed that if play a sustained note on the G-string, the "octaved" note dies quite quickly - is this a common issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
