OK, I'm a little confused by as to what you're asking. By "distorted octave tone," do you mean":
1. An octave distortion (ex. Octavia, Brassmaster, Superfuzz)
or
2. An octaver with distortion

1 cannot be accomplished with your current set up. You'd need an octave distortion for that. If you're asking about 2, you also need to define what is in your opinion a "really good distortion tone," because that can be extremely subjective. I personally hate the ODB-3, but many people love it.

here is what i am trying to get take a listen to these songs and let me know how and if it is possible www.myspace.com/lightningboltbrians i know he uses a oc-2 with a odb-3 and a boss super overdrive

[kugelspot]

I don't think he uses the the OC2 on every song. In fact, I think he mostly just uses a bunch of boss distortions at the same time.

really? because i can hear the octave in the tone either way what would be your advice on how to get something close to that?

[LoveLostShuffle]

ok actually listen to the song two towers on there. that is the tone i am trying to get

[LoveLostShuffle]

it comes in at about 1 min into the song if you wanna just skip through the intro

I'm hearing an octave up too, but it's LightBlt so it may be guitar strings. I searched for sounds like that That track well...couldn't get it from an OC3...an OC2 (used in the clip) is better, but I found the Behringer tracks better! Believe it or not. (You really have to learn how to articulate cleanly with any octave box) The Boss OD used here is a bit synthetic sounding, but it sounds great in this overdriven rig. I finally found satisfaction from a MXR OcDelx into an Electronix Mess Drive Hybrid on modern sound, full treble. Tracks Great and is beefy, really pushes the low.

well what im asking since im pretty broke at the moment but i wanna get a nice sound like that for the band i am doing is there anyway i can get a sound like that using a oc-3 odb-3 or mt-2 and if so how would i go about it? even if its not perfect i just want something good sounding haha

[LoveLostShuffle]

if it helps this is the band i am doing now www.myspace.com/chechenrebelsny i wanna get a sound like that for it but if you guys have any ideas on a sound that you think is better by all means im open to ideas the sound i have now is just too muddy for me

Now my ears aren't the best but I think I could do that playing high up and running my OC-2 into my Russian muff.
