Don_Viviano « Good to see the effects »
Published on 02/06/11 at 04:22Multi effect:
Pitch shifter
Delay
Tremolo
Phaser
Chorus
Flanger
A level button (which resembles a signal Dry-Wet)
2-button settings
A button to change the config
UTILIZATION
effect is simple, we choose an effect (why not put a knob notched anyway?)
Then we adjust the two parameters (for example, for the delay: the delay and the number of repetitions for the phaser to be the speed and color, same flanger, etc ...)
Then adjusts the level of effect (dry-wet).
The blue LED is just extremely powerful and blinding (really!) I had to stick 3 layers of brown tape on it to read the knobs
SOUND QUALITY
The sound quality is rather poor in general.
The pitch shifter is nice, it adds a note to the 2nd note played, from -1 to +1 octave octave, through all the half tones between.
The knob level for the determination of rating level added (at bottom, we hear it).
The note added is fair enough, but there is a slight delay compared to the attack, and also affects a bit jerky.
The delay works pretty well but lost some volume.
The tremolo is also increasingly at low speed the effect is less and less audible.
Same for the phaser, which sounds rather synthetic.
The chorus works pretty well.
The flanger works pretty well, but sounds very artificial, like the phaser.
Just for fun, all effects are usable, apart from slow speeds for the phaser and tremolo. But none of them really sounds good, it's a bit of a caricature effects.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for several months at home (I dare not play with sound again !!!).
I tried several effects authentic brand reputation (Boss, etc ...) (phaser, flanger, delay), it's really day and night.
This pedal is nice if you do not really need these effects, and we are looking for something for fun, or discover them at home, or to compose.
Considering the price of OCCAZ (20 €), we expect no miracles. The sound is not good, but the main thing is that it works properly.
The only thing that bothers me is the delay on the pitch shifter, and the fact that we hear no phaser, and tremolo speed low.
