New Soundblox 2 OFD bass microModeler

Meh.
I actually find it really difficult to get excited about digital multi-fx. They're cool if you're not into pedals and you just want one box to do it all 'alright', but it just sounds very beige to me based on the videos. Maybe I can have a listen up close at the LBGS

I think this pedal has some great low gain sounds in it, shame he only demoed it maxed out. He tends to do that on most pedal demos too, just turns all the knobs to 11!

I saw on Talkbass I think an A/B between this and the OCD and everyone was saying it was awesome, well yeah close enough I guess, but I could definitely tell this more organic attack dynamics on the OCD that made it sound exciting, and that little thing missing from this pedal made it sound dull...

He also posted a comparison between the Blueberry and the OFD: [url="https://soundcloud.com/johnk_10/bbbodvsofd-01"]https://soundcloud.c...0/bbbodvsofd-01[/url]

Also general overdrive sounds here: https://soundcloud.com/johnk_10/ofd-overdrivesettings

I agree the analog pedal sounds better in both cases, but the OFD does get pretty darn close, and is much more versatile. As much as I like it, I might be moving mine on soon, since I really just use my SFT and TAFM and it can't quite nail those sounds.
