@slash196 3 года назад

The coolest thing about this pedal is the ability to keep it "away" from your low notes, so you can get that suboctave support for your higher notes but not have to worry about the tracking going nuts when you're down on the B string. And in reverse as a guitar octave, you can have it only double your root note to thicken chords up without turning everything into a sloppy mess.

@dirtychinchilla 3 года назад

That sounds excellent. I was really scared about playing low notes with an OC-3

@rome8180 3 года назад

The combination of fuzz and octave is my favorite bass tone. I use it all the time in recording. Nothing will ever match the magic of the OC-2, but this sounds pretty great.

@ampthebassplayer 3 года назад

Dude, octave is my favorite effect. I've been using it for ages. Interesting that they account for bass via a switch. On the OC-3, they have separate inputs for bass and guitar.

I own 2 OC2s from back in the day. Yeah it sounds good. But I actually preferred the MXR Vintage on my board until I tried the OC5. Way more functionality and I love being able to split the signals. Those who say they can tell the difference between the 2 and 5 I’d love to see them take a blindfold test. I’ve been a session player over 40 years and most recently the touring bassist for The Miracles. I can’t tell the difference on the vintage mode and I seriously doubt anyone else truly can either. The audience certainly cannot.

@Haze763 3 года назад

This is the second video I've watched from you and I'm now subscribed. You're not only a great bassist, you explain in detail very well. I just got a new OC2 clone from Behringer because it was only $28 and I wanna get my feet wet with octave. I haven't tried it out yet but for $28, it will be a good pedal to start with. I've really had my eye on the EHX Pitchfork and other harmonizers also that can do even more than just octaves. Talk about fun!!! I've heard the Pitchfork tracks great. Maybe you can get your hands on one and do a cool demo sometime. Thanks for what you're doing and keep up the awesome demos man. Cheers from Detroit.

I have an OC-2, tracking is terrible and it hums really badly in the studio. I use it on tuba and bass but prefer the MXR Vintage octave or Whammy DT, they don’t sound like they’re underwater. This OC-5 looks rad though, I’m gonna get one.

@JGHR777 3 года назад

Is it polyphonic and how does it handle low notes like a low B? I have tried a couple of octavers and was looking at buying the POG, but if this works well with low notes i might consider it :D.

@SirEnVo 3 года назад

Bump. Wondering the same.

@bertrandmajorik6589 3 года назад

Low B, big chance your getting to that range where humans cannot hear that low with the octave. Berhinger octaver has a filter switch hi/mid/low, set the volume on your bass around 8 (passive) similar to oc5, on the low B, produces a sound that you hear, the octaver has some growl to it, i love that sound too, non-synth low.... might want a booster pedal before that pedal when the frequency filter is engaged........ past the 13th fret, don't track too well, again a boost pedal before would help with sustained notes and higher notes too.

@dragostego 3 года назад

The reason low notes dont work well with octavers is because of human hearing. E0 is never gonna be clear.

@ampthebassplayer 3 года назад

With any octave, you won't want to play below an A most of the time. It just gets super muddy and unuseable. In my experience, most pedals struggle to track well below an A anyway. The best tracking pedal I've ever used was a Digitech Bass Synth Wah, which has a straight octave down setting, but it's starting to get a bit expensive these days for some reason.

@jamesmarkham7489 3 года назад

I keep hearing that octave pedals are super useful. I've never been on gig where any octave pedal was asked for or required, so my question is. What type of gig would you use it on?

@piercegauge5800 3 года назад

Maybe just you and a drummer. No bassist available. Or you can play a bass with an octave up to double your sound with the oc-5. I play an oc-3 with my guitar to play anything from blues to hard rock to rockabilly if you dont mind that kind of sound for those types of music. The range switch makes it worth my time to play with. I can set it so only my two lowest strings play bass notes and I can still play chords. It's easy enough for me since I already play lots of bass notes with my blues/country fingerpicking style. Its up to you to decide what it's good for. No wrong answers

@SonicXRage 3 года назад

I have no gigging experience, BUT I did find that the octave pedal simulator on my Zoom B1 Four is really great for creating a smoother fundamental tone when it's used subtly. With the lower octave's volume at a low volume, I can get a very smooth, consistent bass tone which sounds a lot like the thick tones I hear in soooo many songs. I much prefer this over the growly, obvious use of octave effects you usually hear in demos.

@Gibson1976uk 3 года назад

I use to have an oc2 and loved the tone but it would let you down at times with that glitching! Which is great if your doing experimental stuff but sucks when you just want it to behave!! :) I did regret selling it so I have now ordered the new OC5!,, everyone needs an octave pedal

@Jah3lohim 3 года назад

The glitch adds some extra flavor to the warmth of the tone... I love the OC-2, other pedals can imitate it but never replace it.

@pm8rsh233 3 года назад

I always find that the cause of glitching was the Tone knob, or type of strings you have. If you dial the tone on your bass all the way down, or have flats, then the OC-2 just doesn't have enough high frequencies to track properly. The issue I found with this is that for some song, I didn't need like the tone being bright, so I had to settle with the glitches

Best OC-2 alternative? It’s still an MXR Vintage Bass Octave. Or it’’s a 3Leaf Audio Octabvre. But definitely not an OC-5. IMHO.

@kevinhide6560 3 года назад

Out of interest, why? Listening to comparisons, the OC-5 vintage mode IS the Oc-2 tone, with the volume corrected so it’s louder. The Octabvre I didn’t like, no experience with the MXR. But as a comparison to OC-2, this new Boss is spot on.
