Description
JHS Pedals – Double Dragon Lo-Fi Octave Unit. In a world of perfect digital octaves, JHS Pedals has deliberately gone back to 40-50-year-old analogue octave divider technology. The Double Dragon is a monophonic octave effect that replicates the sound characteristics of legendary vintage octave devices such as the MXR Blue Box, DOD Octoplus and Boss OC-2, but with its own lo-fi charm. It thrives on a warm, analogue sound quality that is perfect for creative musicians who are looking for more than just digital precision. The Double Dragon's sound is completely analogue, offering a deep, fat sub-octave that serves as a foundation, as well as a higher octave that falls somewhere between an Octavia and a Superfuzz. This octave is grainy and has a piercing midrange bite that cuts through the mix. The effect fills the room and makes your guitar sound twice as big. When you play riffs, you'll notice that the sound comes alive and stands out from a typical effect. The Double Dragon is aimed particularly at riff lovers and creative musicians who appreciate the imperfect but lively feel of analogue technology. It is perfect for fans of bands such as Led Zeppelin, The White Stripes, Rage Against The Machine, Muse and Royal Blood. Bassists who are familiar with the vintage sound of an OC-2 will also appreciate this effect. The Double Dragon offers more than just an octave – it's a musical partner that plays with you rather than trying to replicate you perfectly. The Volume control adjusts the master output level and also provides a boost. The Dry control mixes your clean signal with the octave effects – from a clear to a completely “wet”, glitchy vintage synth sound. The OCT− knob controls the mix of the low sub-octave, while the OCT+ knob controls the upper octave and distortion, which is activated via the right footswitch. The left footswitch turns the unit on and off, while the right footswitch activates the OCT+ effect. The Double Dragon is particularly well suited for use in combination with overdrive pedals such as the Tube Screamer to boost the midrange, or with fuzz to create maximum chaos. For a synth-like texture, we recommend combining it with pitch vibrato. The tracking characteristics of the Double Dragon come into their own even more vividly and interestingly with such combinations. The Double Dragon is not just an effects unit, but a creative partner that changes your sound and plays along with you. It's wild, imperfect and simply sounds alive.
