Members korgi Posted April 16, 2012 Members Share Posted April 16, 2012 does anyone make and analog octave pedal, that does both up and down octaves.....or is it a case of having to buy two separate pedals for the job? (i know there are some synthy pedals that do it, but i'm after just regular octave sounds really) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members macadood Posted April 16, 2012 Members Share Posted April 16, 2012 +1 to foxrox octron. most 'organic' sounding octave pedal ive ever heard. only thing is that the up octave is always dirty, can't have a clean one. depending on what you need it for that may be a dealbreaker. but it soudns really {censored}in good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members solewheelin Posted April 16, 2012 Members Share Posted April 16, 2012 Pearl Octaver..But from what i heard, the upper octave is pretty dirty sounding. The PS-5 is fun. Thats what i'm using for clean upper octave soloing and it sounds great. The -1 octave on the PS-5 isn't as good, but it does work.I'm pretty sure the PS-6 sounds better though. But yeah, bass lines are best done with an OC-2 or a DOD Octoplus or something like that. i'm in the same boat trying to find a simple octave up/down.Looking for it to be clean, not like the Octron, and I don't really like the tone of the Micro pog.

Members korgi Posted April 16, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 16, 2012 some good ideas there, thanks ......the foxrox sounds good, i've already tried the pollyanna, and its a great pedal, but the octave downs are synthy and glitchy (sounded great, but not what im after).....i was considering maybe a zvex johnny octave and ehx octave multiplexer - looks like it might get expensive im just surprised there aren't more out there to be honest.

Members evets618 Posted April 17, 2012 Members Share Posted April 17, 2012 The PS-5 sounds better (to me), but the PS-6 will do both upper and lower octaves. So will the Digitech HarmonyMan.These are "clean" harmonizers, quite different from the Octavia-style distortion pedals used by Hendrix, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS-5 is a great octave +1/-1 pedal even though I do notice a bit of lag with the -1 octave setting. And yes. clean harmonizers/octavers are, for the most part, digital. Isn't the original POG the only one that isn't? I personally have no use for octavia tones.What category would the Pearl Octaver go in? I have yet to find a decent demo of it set to clean.Not sure why some guys use the gain channel and call it clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
