Heyy just wondering what you guys use? What do you think is best? I'm building a pro pedal board and not too sure about the octaver and flanger. currently i am looking at the EBS octabass and i have a boss flanger, but not too happy with it, the boss stuff is really hopeless and im not too sure about a flanger thoughh.
-T
edit: whats the EHX hog like with bass, it just seems awesome in the videos.

| | | | Everything is subjective. I use a POG for octave because of the tracking and synthy/organ sounds it makes. I use an MXR Flanger usually. I have a Boss BF3 and Guyatone flanger and both are good, I just prefer the MXR for most stuff.

I read lots of articles in BP Mag about players' gear, and the octave they almost always have is the OC-2.

They aren't made anymore, but they sell on ebay for like fifty bucks.

My current choice of octaver is the OC-2, though I also liked the EBS and am curious about the new MXR. I'm not a huge flanger guy, but I've got an HBE Frost Bite on the way. On the more subtle side, I also liked the George Dennis Chorus Flanger.
If you really want to know my favorites that I've tried, that would be the Mu-Tron Octave Divider and the A/DA Flanger. |
