It's quackalicious! Really need to de-ox my wah tho

What's the pedal on top of the amp? The layout is reminiscent of the Echo Dream 2

Oh, cool. Thanks.

I haven't moved my pedals about much lately, so I thought I'd try this for a while.

oh wow. you really went down the Zoia rabbit hole huh? Not sure if you watch what's going on w Beebo at all, but he just released a firmware update that has an EDP Echoplex Looper built in

I've not looked at the Beebo at all yet.

What I like about the Zoia is the patch making community, which is turning out interesting sounds fairly regularly - is there a similar Beebo community or are all the sounds coming from the manufacturer?

I have yet to make a single patch for myself but I reckon there are enough patches that I like to fill at least three Zoias, so 192 patches.

The Beebo looks a little simpler to tweak on the fly but as I don't play live it's not really an issue.

So is that setup a Zweia?...

What's tht pick btw? Telefunken?

[tremolo3]

2oia.

[Paul_C]

Both suggestions sound good

It's a Jim Dunlop .88mm, curved to fit my thumb, trimmed to a point (which makes for a very defined attack) and punctured with an awl in both directions (I drop them otherwise).

I spent a weekend with a variety of thicknesses and tried all sorts of things, like punching holes and fitting a small cable tie (neither worked), sticking on wet & dry paper (gave me a blister) until I settled on this "design" and I've used it ever since.

New band. New board.

cello?

[ognoy]

For guitar.
I use less pedals when playing cello, got a limited reach with my feet when playing the cello.

How is the OC-5? people seem divided on it

[ognoy]

I like it. Does what I need it to do.

It sounded so good on the paper and I was excited to trying it out. It was meant to be my last year's Christmas present. But I didn't like it when it arrived in November and I sent it back as soon as possible. It really seems to recreate the OC-2's sound in a proper way, but having used the OC-3 (with much powerful sound) all the years I wasn't pleased by the sound of the OC-5. The octave up mode sounds like a stupid joke and BOSS ditched the overdrive which was one of the coolest options in the OC-3. The polyphonic mode isn't that much better than the OC-3's. The only semi-cool new thing is the "Lowest" function in the polyphonic mode (but it requires very accurate playing).

I had kept the OC-5 for the octave down sounds if I haven't had the OC-3 already. But to be honest: I like the Hotone OCTA's (also digital) octave sound more than that of the OC-5.
I have the KORG KOT-401 Octave V effect module and I have had the Pearl OC-07 in the past. Both models have octave up modes which sound like an (almost non-distorting) octave up fuzz. These are a lot of fun, because polyphonic play leads to gorgeous disharmonic overtones. And single notes sound really great that way. But the OC-5's octave up is just a cheesy digital effect. Any other decent pitch shifter does it better.
