Sibob Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 I believe that the world, post apocalypse, will be inherited by cockroaches and OC-2s, I'm simply allying myself early :-D Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alstocko Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 My one's a Taiwan model, would someone please explain the sound difference between the two models? (I'm assuming that the Japs are better) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibob Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 It's a combination of using them a LOT, so going a bit overboard on spares (I've used an OC-2 for pretty much any musical situation in the last 5 years, sometimes two on same board).....and being a big 'vintage' Boss fan, so I have a nice little collection of a pedal I use all the time, works for me . There's not a huge difference between the 3 models (Japanese Octaver, Japanese Octave, Taiwan Octave). The Japanese ones are a tiny but warmer to my ears, but you wouldn't notice on a gig, the earlier Octaver has a slight dip in unison gain that I've grown to like. Plus the Japanese tend to hold worth better, although the Taiwan OC-2s are creeping up Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higgie Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 How much would it cost me to get you back down to 6, and sell me one of the Japanese OctaveR ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisnameistaken Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1350220888' post='1835882']OK I'm going to ask, why do you need more than one?[/quote] I've got two on my board because I split my signal in two. Originally I just had an OC-2 in one channel (because I either wanted it solo or blended with my clean sound or effected sounds) but then I found there were loads of nice sounds to be had by putting an OC-2 infront of the stuff I had in the other channel as well, so I added a second for that. Can't imagine needing six although spares are always a good idea, but two is very sensible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Apple Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 [quote name='bode' timestamp='1351247497' post='1849147'] Using eight octave pedals at once would destroy the very fabric of music. It's like the idiot who typed 'Google' into the google search engine. [/quote] It's called a negative reality inversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
