DOD FX35 Octoplus!

I hear good things about it and would be interested to read your findings!

 

I scored one locally for $40 few weeks ago. Haven't messed too much with it yet but cool pedal. Came with original box, manual, sticker etc. They even came with schematic

 

Those old DOD boxes were a hit and a miss but certainly hold their own despite their oddities. That battery door, foot switch and power jack are all issues to be dealt with. Their utility boxes otoh were bullet proof DI boxes, resistance mixers, ab switchers...

 

It tracks pretty well but not great on sustained notes. The tone is a nice touch and the volume is much better than an OC2. I would use it but the MXR VOD is my go to octave at the moment.
I also have the FX25, FX62, FX82 and an FX75 on the way. The bass chorus sounds really good, it surprised me a little. All are no slouch by any stretch but volume on the FX25 is a little low.

 

I have the older FX25 and volume spike isnt the issue, its lower output than I'd like. I'll have to check that sensitivity pot issue mentioned in the link you posted because it's a great sounding filter.
I picked up the FX75 because it was a good deal. I'll wind up with the other one too sooner or later.

 

Only a Boneshaker but none of the other vintage DOD efx iirc but there might be a stray or two hidden away in the trunks. I have several of the utility boxes mentioned in my sound company trunks packed away or in use. Those early DOD DI boxes are worth collecting as some have the desirable Jensen transformer or a very good substitution and all are quite serviceable units. I use several resistance mixers in my keyboard and effects studio setup.

 

I've had an octoplus for a good ten years.
Such a great sounding pedal. The only reason I don't use mine out when gigging is down to size issues.
I also have an fx10, two fx25s, fx72, 62, 100, 92, 91 and 35. I'm kind of a dod fan lol

 

I've been using FX35 Octoplus for quite some time, but ultimately it was replaced by MIJ BOSS OC-2

FX35 is more versatile because of the "Tone" knob (I used mine with "Tone" fully CCW, so it was really bottom heavy), but OC-2 cuts through the band mix better!

Also using DOD FX84 Milkbox as an always-on pedal and vintage FX10

 

Great deal on Reverb if anyone is interested. I dont need a 2nd one so someone buy it
