Fuzz with octave up AND octave down

Post by hollowhero »

I'm thinking about adding an octave fuzz to my pedalboard, but I'm having trouble finding one that does both octave up and octave down. Ideally, the pedal would have controls for the fuzz (fuzz, level, and maybe tone) as well as controls to blend in the octave up and octave down. Any ideas?

That slash mxr thing was tight...still have no idea why slash was slapped on it. Probably would've sold more if he wasn't, but that's people being stupid. It sounded great and had a switch to put the octave into the fuzz or the fuzz into the octave.

MI Audio Pollyanna is pretty excellent. Has octavia, your dry signal, octave down and two octave down fuzz, each with their own level. Tone control too.

The pollyanna looks pretty sick. The knobs seem to be really interactive and I read that the octave +1 knob functions as a pseudo-fuzz control...so that's cool.

If the bit commander had a fuzz knob, I would be all over that thing :animal:

The Bit Commander is really fuzzy though, I never played the Polyanna but I'm quite sure it's way more fuzzy than that one.
