Jhs Double Dragon Octaver
The Double Dragon Lo-Fi Octave Device is built on shoulders of 40-50 years old analog octave divider technology, the same technology that gave us the MXR Blue Box, DOD Octoplus, the Boss OC-2, Ibanez OT10, Electro-Harmonix Micro Synth, and other circuits that synth designers helped inspire.
The Double Dragon is an all-analog monophonic octave-down and up effect. The lower octave is the foundation, thick, analog, with the characteristic behavior that made vintage octave circuits legendary. The upper octave is pure bonus: an octave-up distortion that lands somewhere between an Octavia and a Superfuzz. Gritty. Usable. With a mid-range sting that cuts through the mix.
Turn on the Double Dragon and you can't help but start playing riffs. Your guitar feels twice the size. You fill out the space that used to need a band.
Pairs well with overdrive after (especially Tube Screamer - mid heavy types), fuzz after for chaos, pitch vibrato for a more synth-like texture.
- Volume: Master output level with extra boost available. Turn the octaves off, dry full on, and you have an amazing always-on preamp.
- Dry: Mixes in your clean signal to the octave effects.
- Oct-: Lower sub-octave mix.
- Oct+: Upper octave and distortion (activated by right footswitch).
- Left footswitch is ON/OFF.
- Right footswitch engages OCT+ circuit.
- The main effect must be on for OCT+ to function
- For octave-up only, engage and turn OCT? down.
