BOSS OC-5 Demo 3 Cool Octave Tricks

Күн бұрын

Hey guys, here's a few ways to use the new BOSS OC-5 Octave pedal.
With the +1 oct and lowest note feature you can get some really unique effects. Plus if you're a Fan of the original classic Boss OC-2 this has that same sound too, as used on Madonna's just like a prayer and Michael Jacksons Earth song... I hope you enjoy the playing examples and why not go check one out next time you're in store...
As always guys, all the best and see you on the next video.
Cheers for now. 👍😎

Like string height @ the 12th off the fret on both bass and treble side, the relief clearance @ the 7th or 8th, and @ the 1st for the nut clearance.

Salut je voudrais faire des loop basse/guitare mais pour éviter d'investir dans un deuxième instrument je pensais prendre cette pédale. Tu penses que c'est une stratégie viable ? Notamment pour les sons ou la ligne de basse est la même que la ligne guitare par exemple Beat it de MJ.. J'ai l'impression que ca ne remplace pas la note jouée par la note une octave en dessous par exemple mais ca les superpose. C'est aussi possible de simplement de la remplacer? pour entendre uniquement la note grave? Merci !

Hey Alex, Very smart demo mate. I've just eliminated the 2nd guitarist for harmony melody and getting it thick as a 3 pc band. Cheers Michael (have you tried out the Boss Harmonist, seems like its a bit overkill and a hassles for a live gig, your thoughts for live.)

Has anyone tried using the BOSS OC-5 with an acoustic guitar? I am trying to isolate the lowest note of my chords to pretty much have the sound of a bass playing along with me. But, it sounds pretty muddy and even sometimes has a strange delay like sound as if I had a delay pedal on. The volume is also all over the place. I was thinking that if I put a compressor in the chain that will help this problem. What do you guys think?

Thank you mate, I was trying to pitch this for beginners that perhaps don't know how to use an Octave pedal, so essentially maybe I should've titled it 3 ways to use an Octave pedal? I'd also say the high octave is quite unique sounding to this pedal and the Lowest note feature is also pretty cool. Either way cheers for watching and all the best 👍
