Octavia
OCTAVER
FUZZ
Description
The ‘Octavia v2’ is a completely analogue and handcrafted guitar effects unit that produces exactly the wild ‘octave-up/octa-fuzz’ sounds spiced with ring modulation that Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan and many others loved to use. In the style of the legendary Tychobrahe Octavia pedal, a special transformer with downstream clipping diodes is also used here. In the current V2 version, however, Schottky diodes are used as an absolute speciality, which give the pedal a very special touch and are much more stable than germanium diodes. The ‘Edge’ control is also new! This can now be used to adjust the treble and overtone spectrum of the pedal. When fully turned up, the frequency response corresponds to the V1 version with maximum bite, grit and presence. However, if this is too much for you, you can now reduce the ‘Edge’. In the ‘Fuzz’ setting, the ‘Octavia v2’ can also be used as a pure fuzz (without ‘octave-up’). The ‘Gain’ button determines the fuzz intensity in this mode.Media
