For trade Synth modded OC-2, Taiwan manufactured. Not modded by me, I purchased this a year ago or so from TB'r Jeff Moote. In very good shape for its age, has Velcro underneath. Has two switches, one for each of the octaves. Here's what the mod does:
What the mod does: pulls the raw octave signal from the IC and sends it directly to the output, bypassing all of the additional processing and specifically the low pass filter which gives it that dull, bassy sound. What you end up with is a more or less pure and well defined square wave. This works for OCT1 and OCT2. With that new tone a lot more high end is pushed, you also get a lot more note definition which makes playing way down the E string actually usable, and makes OCT2 genuinely useful on bass. Also, downstream effects respond much differently to the original and "synth mod" signal, often to better results.
I never use the mod, and I never use the 2 octave down. Hoping for a trade for the MXR Octave deluxe, or an outright sale of $100 shipped CONUSA. Other trades will be considered but really need an Octave.
I can post/email pictures later, but it's a brown OC2!
