Boss OC-2

http://beta.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=38BE577941AA8DC6

Here's a short clip of the OC-2 in action.

The OC-2 works best with the neck pup and above the 7th fret. I placed the OC-2 after the skreddy & blackstone, before the Sansamp Original.

0:01- 0:15: The OC-2 has issues tracking this low, esp with the octave 2 on
0:15 - 0:30: Tracking is much improved from the 7th fret on
0:30 - 0:45: Dynamics are interpreted okay... just okay
0:45 - 0:52: Retarded-ly good tracking!
0:52 - end: With distortion...

Note, the octaves lack any tonal characteristics of the original tone. Even with distortion. ANd the OC-2 was after the distortion pedals.

I've a taiwan version of the OC-2. I think mine is busted cos it sounds nothing like yours. too muddy & produces some farting noises :? .

I've heard that the boss OC-2 is the secret weapon of some famous players like petrucci & malmsteen. only thing is, I cant hear them using it with my ears

Eh. Mine is also MIT leh. Hmmm.... There's farting if used to play more than 1 note. CHords DO NOT work on the OC-2. Double stops will cause the tracker to rapidly switch between notes.

Its a pretty nifty gadget, now I'm putting it before my Skreddy, so theres a touch more character to the octaves, they finally do get distorted.

Main problem with this thing, it ain't true bypass.

 

[ciel21]

they dun track very well.... for the ultimate in octaving listen to the HOG ooooooo i like, John Fruciante uses it or the POG on some tracks of the new album.

 

[ShredCow]

MORE OC-2!!!!

This time, after Blackstone, before Skreddy... oh yeah, its an improv... used the OC-2 in later half.

[ciel21]

am just looking for a nice overdrive to swap out my boss now. after that the wah and fuzz is long term kinda thing not in the near future

 

[imcorn]

just mod the boss lah.. haha.. just modded my boss sd-1 and i must say it sounds very transparent.. as for the wah.. the budget alt. is to get a Vox V847, mod for true bypass and other stuff and change the inductor and you've got a nice wah liao..
