Thanks, it was fun for me to include those old vids too!

As Southside Johnny Lyon sang, "All I Want Is Everything":) !

Bahaha right?!?!?

Reverb: You have to be 10 years of age or older to own octave pedals

@@scottplaysguitar that was absolutely brilliant, well played 👏

Bruce Knouse hahaha thank you!🙌

I was NOT expecting Andy to rip out with the 96QBB!

@@Reverend_Taco absolutely 😁

Definitely a killer riff, yeah

Thank you, the sweet spots always make me pause for a second, it's like they're calling me....they never shut up! Help.

Same. I was so surprised and stoked :D

Beings*

@@skatertrev7 Oh yeah my bad. No idea how I messed that up.

@@Intaminator meh, it happens. I was happily surprised to hear the riff as well!

I felt like I was playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

That's great to hear! I really like when fuzz pedals give you the option to blend octave like that, rather than just a full blown tone change. Thanks!

The newest Boss OC is pretty killer, and the SolidGoldFX Lysis is a badass octave down fuzz. There are so many excellent options now.

Hey Andrew, we already did a video on the history of the Leslie speakers and pedals here! I'll add that the new Dawner Prince Pulse is good one to check out! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/isCcqcxqmZicfKs.html

AndyDemos Oh cool, I’ll definitely check it out then. Great demo as always, Andy, keep ‘em coming and stay awesome

Check the Neo Instruments Mini Vent series of pedals. Killer rotary effects. DLS Rotospin, and the bigger RotoSIM, are pretty sweet, and for an affordable pedal to try it out, the Digitech Ventura Vibe, has Rotsry, Uni-Vibe and Vibrato options, with stereo ins and outs. It’s not as good of an effect as the more expensive pedals, but it’s well worth the price. The Uni-Vibe is its own rabbit hole, though some can get closer to a rotary sound than others.

CorbCorbin Sounds interesting, I’ll look into them. Thanks dude

Octron is the next octave pedal I'll be buying.

@@kirabarsmith9353 The 4 is coming out in the Summer-they just announced it recently. What a thing!

@@Barry101er Nice, thanks for the heads up!

@@Barry101er I was looking at the 4 when making this vid, looks awesome!!

Hope you enjoy the TripleGraph, it's really in a class of its own!

@@AndyDemos Your video was what made me decide that I had to own one! Honestly, your videos are fantastic in general - best pedal demos out there!

I still have my Red one, and I only sold my lofi Ekko, because I got the Caroline Kilobyte. It switched spots on my board with the lofi Ekko, but I still use the Red 616, on a mini board.

@@CorbCorbin the kilobyte seems amazing and I'm sure it's got a longer delay, that was my only complaint with the malekko. I had the meteor reverb and I kick myself daily for selling that one too lol

analog octave up folds the negative part of the waveform onto the positive part, you dont and wont encounter tracking problems because it isnt tracking at all.i think it is as said in the vid, modulating(really sounds like a ring modulator) itself and messing up when feeded too much harmonic content

@@shoegazing_pineapple_6956 Perhaps "tracking" is the wrong term to apply. The issue is the extent to which it makes the octave *audible* in the midst of all the other doubled noise and other unintended content. And yes, restricting the harmonic content it receives is important to providing best performance. I'll note that many of the best-behaved analog octave-up units will include a pair of diodes to ground closer to the output. There is a misconception that they are responsible for the fuzz. In fact, if you remove them, you still get plenty of fuzz. Although they obviously do clip (hence add some harmonic content), their primary purpose would seem to be acting as a crude peak limiter to squeeze the signal dynamics. Because most of the harmonic content of a picked string occurs in the first 200msec or so, before settling down to mostly fundamental, the octave gets lost in all that harmonic mess. It doesn't really come out of hiding until a little while after picking the note. By clamping the output level with diodes, and mimicking sustain, the octave will seem to "bloom". I applied this to Green Ringers I've built (which normally lack this), and it improves their octaving performance noticeably. The help these diodes provide can be improved a little by inserting a small resistance (e.g., 100-470R) between diodes and ground, and running a small cap (e.g., 1000-2200pf) in parallel with the diodes+resistor.

@@markhammer643 i 100% agree about the audability thing, i am quite confused at how exactly it is effecting it but the rectifier octaves go near silent with a bright rich input.i love the grit they produce tho, thats another sound to go for when you get sick of the samey octave sound after half a minute :) i like the diode idea a lot, i was going to build a green ringer but now it will have lot more switches clipping the output might be a must on some pedals, i have a bobtavia with a super hot output transformer and it is too dynamic for the fuzzy sound it produces when dimed, it is unlike anything i have ever built, it is dirty, but it has no compression just like a clean sound.hits you in the face when you dig in. thanks a lot for the info, definitely going on my breadboard soon

@@shoegazing_pineapple_6956 *We* may be listening for, and paying attention to, the doubled note fundamental, but the circuitry treats everything the same. It's ALL rectified, including the stuff you aren't interested in. As well, because we generally prefer lighter gauge strings, we have a tendency to bend the string and raise the pitch a little when we pick (the reason for my suggestion of heavier and stiffer strings), which gives us rectified junk. All of that tends to make the octave get lost. It's in there, but it's like we're trying to listen for the phone while we're in the shower - TOO MUCH HARMONIC CONTENT. Doug Hammond's mods to the Bobtavia roll off the high end at the input. But as I noted initially, one can help by using the neck pickup and rolling the tone off on the guitar. Keep in mind that one of the reasons why *both* octave up and octave down seem to behave better above the 7th fret is because the shorter the string, the less harmonic content. ("Ahhhhhhhhh...." he says). If you want a well-behaved Green Ringer put a 470R resistor, 10k pot, and 10uf capacitor in series, and put all of that in parallel with the 6k2 emitter resistor on Q1. This will give you variable gain. Because that additional gain can make the effect louder than bypass, change the 47k ground resistor on the output to a 47k log pot for volume control. Stick a pair of regular diodes from the input lug of that added volume pot to a 100R resistor going to ground, and give the result a listen before deciding whether the additional cap is needed. It's not *quite* as pleasing an octave as the Foxx Tone Machine (my favorite) or the Tychobrahe Octavia (2nd favorite), but it's MUCH better than a stock Ringer or EQD Tentacle.

@@markhammer643as you said, the octave is always there but it poses as regular harmonics of the instrument.as far as the setup suggestions go, the pedal forces you to play gently but still with some force, thus minimizing harmonic content.i already am on 011 strings, that and bobtavias low input impedance must be the reason i am getting quite an effect. are you sure about the 7th fret thing?my gut feeling is that it works better because the pickup placement related to where the nodes are on the string changes so it picks the fundamental more. the gain control may be on the regular bag of pedal tricks but i am fascinated by the passive clipping, it is usually not audible without a madly hot guitar and low forward voltage diodes but it sure will trim the initial attack, guitars are evil like that.if you make a circuit that clips ugly, the transients poke your eye out every time even though you thought you had ample headroom. maybe i should put one on my reverb driver so it doesnt smash the springs on the inital attack, i like the idea a lot.worth a check with an oscilloscope for sure.

kind of! you won’t get the punch of an 808 but i love to use my oc2 to get a synth bass tone and line my notes up with the kick drum

​@@JackAtlassthanks xx

same. i ain't got the patience to duck with all the options on a pog2

@@PageandPlant4Life I actually bought it for my son's bass because that's what Dusty from ZZ Top uses live to get that kinda synth growl.... But I end up using it on my guitar most the time lol... Sounds great

That's a good one too, I had fun faking bass on that demo!

Try a micro pog :)

You can just buy a bass for less than what you'd spend on a decent octave pedal

The Boss OC-3 or OC-5 and Micro POG are pretty strong contenders for clean realistic bass!

@@AndyDemos Thanks for the tip.

OC5 for sure. Better and cheaper than a POG IMO. Of course a POG will do this as well.
