Octaver Shootout: OC-2 vs MSG vs PF vs Your Mother

Sign in to disble this ad
Just got a MIT OC-2 in the post from GC today. I'm pretty excited about it -- definitely lives up to the hype (or at least give me *that tone*).

Anyway, I figured I'd stack it up against my Eventide Pitchfactor and Pigtronix Mothership (MSG).

Test 1 has me setting them all pretty close -- solo'd -1 oct on all three. For the MSG, that means using the dedicated sub octave switch. For the PF that's soloing voice A, with filter around 20, resonance at 0, depth at about 50, sensitivity at 45 to give it movement similar to the OC-2.

For test 2 I tried to differentiate the units a bit more. The OC-2 had -1 and -2 oct dimed. MSG added the square wave at unison, plus the intelligent ring mod tune dimed. PF put filter at 20, filter resonance at 7, depth at 55, sensitivity at 55.

Signal chain was '71 Gibson SB-300 (passive) >> OC-2 >> MSG >> PF >> Ampeg PF-350 >> mixer >> soundcard >> Audacity.

Questions, concerns, comments, requests? Carrots?
