We do not really Submitted Octavia, historical effect of Jimi Hendrix, two effects in one: a fuzz and an octave. Roger Mayer silent technician effects of Jimi Hendrix, Jimi Page, but also, so there is the know-how! Effect type trs original, which allows for sounds weird enough, the wise and unique design, trs cool, the flying saucer.
Apart from a, not true bypass, no LED, which can be a bit boring rvler, and change the battery, while the rear is dvisser the pedals (but good in six months, I have not had to change it).

UTILIZATION

Two knobs, one can no longer simply a CT volume, on the other, the gain. In Ralite there are only two possible rglages: either fuzz, which is frankly disparatre the octave (gain background, zero-volume) or octave (the reverse) that the coup is the fuzz disparatre
So rev limit use, and given the configuration of the pedals, it is almost impossible to change the current song rglages or even between two pieces (the knobs are not accessible trs must raise the pedals or the back).

SOUND QUALITY

Well, I am one of the Octavia is sr, we can get sounds pretty unique, and your exact plutt obtained is not bad in octaves, has almost sounds like an old synth 70s, with fuzz, adchire, but I never can t penetrate or vritablement the mix, or to find the sound I was looking for the leader and as well as we can not easily switch between the other
That said, it would seem that to fully enjoy the capabilities of the Octavia, it must be like Jimi is - to say back in with another Octavia Fuzz. I never had the opportunity to try, this may be the secret

OVERALL OPINION

I bought the Octavia in December, sold in April I'm not saying it's a bad pedals, I may be unable to use it well
Anyway, it does not offer a PDAL a great diversity of sounds, the try before you buy is when even a particular purpose trs. Now it should be possible to compare it with other Fuzz / Octave, I have not had the opportunity to do so.
