    One of the best, if not the best (at least for me)

    Fulltone OCD V1.1Published on 11/12/13 at 03:29
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    It is important to note (given previous notice) I am not mistaken, and I leave it here an opinion on the Fulltone OCD VERSION 1 and not 2, 3 or 4; D

    Analog pedal. Buttons Volume, Tone and Gain.
    Note that if you push the "tone", the gain is also partly driven.
    Energizable at 9 and 18v. Not yet tested 18 volts, it would seem that gets more "headroom" .... It will then pull :)
    Switch to switch HP and LP (we say that it is to choose between sounds OD Fender or Marshall).

    UTILIZATION

    Extremely simple configuration. I did not have a manual for purchased used. In any case it would not have helped me much. Changes in augemntation or lower knobs is linear, no sudden increase in v…

    It is important to note (given previous notice) I am not mistaken, and I leave it here an opinion on the Fulltone OCD VERSION 1 and not 2, 3 or 4; D

    Switch to switch HP and LP (we say that it is to choose between sounds OD Fender or Marshall).

    UTILIZATION

    Extremely simple configuration. I did not have a manual for purchased used. In any case it would not have helped me much. Changes in augemntation or lower knobs is linear, no sudden increase in volume, tone or other. The gain, however, in his Derner quarter, not changing very much (but no need to see more of what we can already get there).

    SOUND QUALITY

    Effective effect, whether light or OD OD further. Used on guitars.
    I prefer (for now, you never know, it may change, or not in the future ..) use slightly OD, and sometimes boost my amp saturation.
    Note that there is a slight difference in level between the HP and LP sound (without touching the knobs, it will + fort HP, with more bass and a bit more mids)
    Gain pushed to block the sound from slightly to a fuzzy sound. In any case, good headroom available, you can go pretty far (without going not in the mega sustain or metal but it is sending).
    Finally be aware that this pedal is extremely reactive to the type of game (light, violent, pedal adjusts the sound output ... As a real amp what)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I tried a lot of OD: several Maxon OD808 which, Mi Audio Blues Pro, TS9, Wampler, Xotic, ... I also tried to time the four versions of OCD, are the versions 1 and 2 have me + rained from what I expected from the sound of an OD.
    That is a sound closer to an amp pushed without the hump in the midrange that will bring us a TS9 or OD 808 (this is really not the type of sound I'm looking for), with its "direct" (you take directly in the face, D), not compressed as could be for example a BB Preamp.
    It seems that versions 2 and 3 would be the best. For the three, certainly not for me (too dark), for two I still leave him a chance ;)
    The only other pedal that caught my ear is the Speaker Cranker (by the use I make of my OD), but it will be hard for her to beat my OCD :)
    With the experience I would do this choice, no doubt.
    I'm really not convinced that one day I would be able to find better compared to the sound I was looking for ...

    "ZE" overdrive

    Fulltone OCD V1.1Published on 07/12/12 at 18:39
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Ben just been said but in speed,

    Analog overdrive pedal
    9V or 18V supply
    3 buttons for volume, gain and tone
    switch high / low frequencies
    LED (I think) to demonstrate the engagement of the pedal
    Metal case (it exudes strength in all cases)

    UTILIZATION

    easy to use, I do not know if there is a manual that is to say ^ ^

    Must be tested to find its sound, the switch is handy, I use it mainly in HP, great for palm mute

    SOUND QUALITY

    I play a vox vt100 with a gibson SG special and OCD overdrive is my best, I put the AC30 effect that gives a clean and slightly dirty I use the pedal with the settings:
    HP
    volume almost half
    tone in 2/3

    HP
    volume almost half
    tone in 2/3
    gain to 2/3 also

    I use it for all the songs rock, pop-rock and punk rock that I play, everything is more metal I pass by the amp (no need to have clean by now) and I with a boost lpb1 nano for the solos.

    It fits me perfectly and testing head tube, I noticed that this pedal goes very well with the tiny terror (in particular crunsh), it seems that this amp does not support the pedals, so either I differently developed an ear, or the pedal is really great on any amp ... Me at least that's the only link in my chain that I would not change it for anything, I always found him a beautiful sound and I even had a lot of trouble deciding for the configuration I put him ^ ^

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 2 years now, it magnifies my sound on any amp that I use is the overdrive to take with you when you make a jam from the amp to a friend or disposal.

    The price is there but for the handmade in the USA, I do not chip.ote! I tried a dozen pedals before falling on it. Love at first sight, I thought it was done after my disappointment at all my previous tests and the love I had for this pedal would go away with time but not at all! I'm still happy.

    Note that after 2 weeks of use, the LED did not work, failure thereof or pe broken by the friend to whom I had lent ... So I was at the store where I had bought it to see what could be done, they returned to the factory by lending me another pending (nice), a week and a half after we m ' called to tell me that my foot was back, I find the time and have not trailed since I have not had a problem, very good service then.

    In conclusion, excellent pedal for those who want an organic overdrive well, it fits very well on any config amp / guitar and it is very hard to find a non-musical sound.

    Fulltone Obsesive Compulsive Drive. (OCD) This is the fourth edition, white pedal, black knobs, red LED. I am a guitarist playing in a gigging country/rock/blues cover band. I play a Fender American Deluxe Strat through a vintage Fender Quad Reverb.

    The item was purchased from eBay for $145.00. I bought this pedal after playing through a friend's. I was looking for a versitlile overdrive pedal that would provide a warm overdrive for single coil pickups.

    The item was purchased from eBay for $145.00. I bought this pedal after playing through a friend's. I was looking for a versitlile overdrive pedal that would provide a warm overdrive for single coil pickups.

    Where to start, This pedal is easily the best overdrive pedal I have ever played through. It has a very wide gain range. The simplicity of the controls are great, tone, drive, and volume. With the drive at about nine o'clock the sound is a lightly overdriven bluesy tone. If the drive is turned all the way up you get extreme overdrive and nearly distortion. With the twist of a knob, you can get all the different overdrives you need. The pedal is small and doesn't take up much room on a pedal board. It sounds great with humbuckers as well but I feel it is usually easier to get a good overdrive with humbuckers anyway. The price is not exorbitant at $143. An ibanez TS-9 is $100 and the OCD is far superior.

    None

    I haven't had the pedal very long so as far as I can tell it is built very well. Nothing has loosened up. The shell is heavy duty and it has the fail-safe external button switch.

    Bottom line, this is the best overdrive pedal on the market right now. You may be able to find something similar in a vintage TS-808 but anything in production right now, including the TS-808 doesn't even come close to the sound and versitility. Anyone in the market, spend the extra money and make only one purchase.

    Great Overdrive!

    Fulltone OCD V1.1Published on 12/23/11 at 08:12
    The Obsessive Compulsive Drive (OCD) is an overdrive pedal available from Mike Fuller at Fulltone, and it lives up to the Fulltone name. It takes your basic controls for an overdrive, Volume (overall volume of the drive), Drive (amount of gain), and Tone (EQ adjustment) and adds a HP/LP switch (high peak and low peak) which changes the pedal from a clean boost to light drive, to a light drive and smooth distortion tone. True bypass switching , a large LED, and sturdy metal construction round out the features.

    UTILIZATION

    It is very easy to get a good sound out of this pedal, and with about any amp I’ve paired it with. I believe it’s harder to get a bad sound out of it honestly. …

True bypass switching , a large LED, and sturdy metal construction round out the features.

    UTILIZATION

    It is very easy to get a good sound out of this pedal, and with about any amp I’ve paired it with. I believe it’s harder to get a bad sound out of it honestly. The pedal is laid out very well and the knobs are sturdy and turn very smoothly. Fulltone manufactures their own custom potentiometers according to their website “because what has been offered as "Industry Standard" has a 20% failure rate within 2 years”. I’m not sure about that fact, but the ones they put out are very nice. The bypass switches are also heavy duty and designed by Mike Fuller.

    SOUND QUALITY

    This is possibly one of the greatest drives out there for a light overdrive sound. It sounds very close to actual amp drive and allows the user to gain this at lower volumes. It is very capable of getting an almost clean boost, a light overdrive like a tube amp on the verge of breaking up, or a flat out smooth overdriven amp sound. Where this pedal shines is that it keeps the sensitivity and dynamics of your playing like an amp would and it has that same feel when you play through it. It’s hard to describe, but a lot of pedals just sound like you are replacing your tone with distortion, this pedal just adds to your tone just like pushing the front end of a tube amp. It does a straight up rhythm crunch with plenty of overtones and spank to it.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Fulltone pedals are pricey, but worth it in my opinion. You’re getting a well made pedal that is going to last that has been designed and hand built by a musician. Mike Fuller is a picky man, and it shows in a very good way. Putting a 5 year warranty on his pedals says a lot too. I really like this company and will be purchasing more pedals from them. This pedal is great in every aspect that I’ve seen. Maybe a little more EQ options may open a few more options to this pedal, but that’s really just asking too much. Additional tones are available with the HP/LP switch and that should cover most needs. It’s a super pedal and a great addition to any pedal board that needs an overdrive.

    SOUND QUALITY

    ATTENTION, this is not an overdrive, it's really a distortion pedal in, trs versatile, from blues to heavy rock.
    The most impressive is the quality and the natural distortion: not at all in color! (Unlike a TS808 or other ...) It really looks like it's the amplifier that saturates, the leaves all his pedals as the guitar and play the guitar.
    The disadvantage is that you find the sound of the blow a bit "cold", but The definition is really impressive.
    Tries with a Start and a Les Paul, the diffrence is huge: you can feel the pedals more comfortable with the dual microphones, giving a sound that dcoiffe! (And shit, I have a Start ...)
    With the simple stratum is much colder, there is less finesse, but for large saturations, like a well-trs road too!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Bought a month ago, I think the pedals idalie saturated rock to the sounds, especially used with dual microphones: it is above all that I heard up 'here Contents of pedals ... can be the best in the market? For me yes, no doubt.
    The only problem is the crunch sounds, we find it difficult cart trs quickly saturates the pedals sound, so I prcise although this is not a overdrive.
    it is expensive, sure, but it saw its quality MRIT ample sn price!

    Fulltone OCD V1.1Published on 05/19/06 at 06:01
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Pedal extremely simple, one input, one output, a power supply jack, tone, volume and drive. A switch can distinguish two sounds, a more distinctive Marshall, the other more neutral.
    has noted that this pedal has a true bypass.
    I regret that the switch is not accessible by foot.

    UTILIZATION

    She rings the matron is a real massacre, by far the best overdrive distortion pedal I've heard. It's going to drive a light color to an outburst of 0 up to 10 harmonic drive with powerful humbucker.
    Whatever the setting the sound is good, That's what makes it difficult not to fiddle with the knobs to exploit all the possibilities.

    I use it with all my guitars, but I find that the strato suits her very well on a fender lights, and with double coils that fishing is delirium. This pedal meets the instrument plugged in and brings a vibrant sacred.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I would have a hard time putting him less than 10. Better than a tube screamer in my opinion, and respect for the instrument staggering, I'm really stuck with this pedal that requires a significant investment but certainly replacing many pedals, tube screamer to ds1 and I think better. I also think that I will sell my TS is saying.

I have not found any equivalent to the Fulltone MODEL. It is certainly a little CHRE, but frankly in the same price range it Exceeds by far its competitors. I would do this choice of course.

    UTILIZATION

    At the configuration is simple. Any action on one of the knobs is IMMEDIATE felt.
    In terms of sound, it's the foot!!
    Manual level, but it's clear most résumé. A duplex sheet acqureur thanking the lucky (considering the price it is better, we might take offense!) And we rewarding some information identifying the bte.

    SOUND QUALITY

    So this is where I write ...
    I play a Stratocaster American Series, a Soldano Hot Rod 50 head and a box 1X12 "Eminence Custom VHT with a 100 watt.
    The problem of the Soldano (which is not one ... I love !!!!) is the single channel. Given the directory in my group I could leave the head in aisment clean for a piece and then to lead to a different song. This was complicated with the extension of the said directory.
    So I had a pedals worthy of the name. A TS-9, a DS-1 ... a Soldano GTO supercharger, a budda zenman??
    So there I left my store prfr. I discuss with sellers who try to mount me suggre prcites the pedals ... But l. .. Hmm ... gnial not. J'tais prs make way for the young who wanted to roar bcheron the ENGL Savage ct me ...
    Suddenly, the seller in question said: "Did you try the Fulltone OCD ?"...
    I amne the ass and then down!
    I begin by playing Little Wing with this lightweight drive typical of Stevie Ray Vaughan ... a drooling just enough ...
    C'tait trs good start. Then comes a second just to be bcheron Marshall TSL 100 head in dpt-sales ... He said: "... no distortion Grmpfff the above ... it's an amp for the blues" ... I fear!!
    Recovered from my motions, I took my test. And a beautiful grain, a sound of great amplitude, slamming, trs typ. Friends of Soldano, "real" Marshall (JCM 800, 900, Silver Jubilee ...) Hello!
    Whether you play with a fender, a Gibson or other guitar ... the grain is beautiful and Dfine. Each instrument will find its particularity. And there must be ... The fact that when you release an agreement, shining everywhere, it is pure, pure trs. Breads agree wonderfully well. The beginners will dcourageront can be a little but persvrance, the quality of their game will suffer.

    In addition, this white finish-crme with blue LED ... She made silent to marry my Soldano ...

    Caution, it is nice to trs overdrive and distos imbalances. Mtaleux go your way!!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I paid 202.30 euros. What is good-march in the light of the price I see anywhere else.
    That the pedals worth! I did the last few days but I'll never no regrets!
    It's been 15 years since I played guitar. I had it all ... marshall slash signature of the Dual Rectifier ... the Gibson Les Paul Custom PRS 24 top ten ...
    Nothing sounds like my current hardware and DEFINITIONS. The PDAL is grafted my arsenal of natural Manir. She rings and surpasses many of its congnres. It may even be the best distortion pedals on the market.
    If someone steals it, I found and I nailed on the door of my garage to scare the other thieves.

    Overdrive / distortion analog true-bypass.
    Two modes, vintage / modern
    Volume, gain, tone (treble)
    Operates 9 to 18V, I supplies 18V, for more dynamic.

    UTILIZATION

    Extremely simple, all settings sound. I use it with tone and gain at noon, the volume depends on the guitar and the situation, but rarely above 10, because the headroom is huge.
    The pedal is designed to react like an old Marshall 18W JTM45 or molten amps I've ever owned, but already heard. Like most Fulltone products, we are in a spirit purist, vintage, which manages the guitarist's last volume of his guitar, plugged into a good amp white-hot. The sound of OCD is in this context.

    SOUND QUALITY

    This pedal is magical, expressive but transparent. So that some may find it too neutral. Yet played with a Squier 51 in a VS 100, two small devices, the musicianship is tremendous, and most importantly, this pedal can handle the volume of the guitar, its clear the big Rock.
    Passing on a stratum, or a gibson, the color of the instrument is fully respected, and it is difficult to get his disappointing.
    In Overd, Distortion, or a boost in already hot amp (my favorite), the quality is at the appointment.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had three months, and this is my main distortion. Really recommendable, if you find at a reasonable price ...

    Edition SETTINGS simple but very effective, I am not too dwelt on the settings, I quickly found a sound that suited me

    SOUND QUALITY

    Simply the best overdrive I got up Submitted. I also have a tube factor that happens to trigger at the same time, I find that OCD has a rponse clearer, more transparent. A large gain range, the modes are vintage caracteriseznt prsence a stronger midrange and gain a little fat, it is necessary to compensate for the volume if you want to stay in the mix. the drive is natural, is perfect for me, I set it to 9:00, the tone around 10:00, the volume of a Manir have some plius that its clean. With these settings the rponse directly LIEA the attack, one can easily have an almost clear if the attack just the strings or decrease the volume of the guitar (a Burny LP 78 with microphone type P90) [ in a Twin ]..... Oh I forgot: no breath .. as the Tube Factor. I play 70's rock (Gallagher, Hendrix ....) So a vintage sound ....

    OVERALL OPINION

    3 weeks, tried it at home in a SansAmp then repeated ..
    A simple quality profesional pedal (you can feel the quality, not breathing, transparency)
    I tried: Sansamp Tri AC, DM4, Tube factor (I couple OCD), TS9, Belcat .... I bought this one without trying it ...
    Purchased in the US, pedal very expensive in France, but you can feel the difference in quality.
    I'll probably continue to try the Fulltone products ....

    complement after a concert: I understand it is called Obsessive spourquoi: the more it goes, the more I always triggers ... it is slowly replacing the TF and I'll return the belcat upstream to push a little. the rponse a 2 LP diffrent (like P90 and like PAF) is very respectful of the signal diffrent originial.

    SOUND QUALITY

    - Effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?

    Then it's really the best distortion that I could be under the foot ... it is also very well named, because it is obsessed with the idea of ​​the trigger ... it is a real dependence. It sounds amazingly bland and transforms the most amps in an infernal machine. Of course, it will shine on a good amp ... on my Soldano, it gives me a sound I could not get the head naturally. This pedal is small and can be transported easily in his guitar case ... we're in a jam with an amp means ... hop on the branch and it's brown sound that points the tip of his nose .

    The texture of the proposed distortion is very marshall-like sound like ... a vieu jtm 45 of the 70's we provide.
    Also this pedal offers the opportunity to play with the knobs ... super responsive, it works ... 1 to 10 of the volume on your guitar, a variety is offered to you without difficulty.
    The Switch HP / LP is great. Lp Od is a super nice, and a boost in front Machiavellian if connected to an already overdriven amp. The way HP is moving closer to a distortion in some 800 dynamic point of view and gain better fitting in my opinion to be connected to a Caal rather clean.
    - Which instruments do you use?

    Les paul standart ... one with a Job and the other a custom 5 in both cases ... it's great ... I love to death as fat!
    - Which ones you prefer, you hate?

    When I received the pedal I started by putting all réglasges to 12. And already like that, it sounded great. Then obviously I began to quibble, and I really have to tell you that everything works ... obviously, if you type in some cut ends of the filter, you get stuff ... but not always musical settings of 99% will give you THE sound!

    OVERALL OPINION

    - How long have you use it?

    2 weeks.
    - What is so special that you like most and least?

    Compact, robust, efficient, true bypass, versatile sound!

    - Have you tried many other models before buying it?

    Ah yes ... I had a sd1, a DS1, a wylde od, a mesa v2, a turbo rat, a 808 maxon pedals ... which I was quite happy but not really sounds ... I fully here, for the first time in my life, I have a sound that suits me thoroughly, I would even say that I no longer feel like the least ... compromise is the ultimate distortion, Really!

    - How would you rate the quality / price?

    Prices in Europe are Exess, and that, that all the material on US
    Fulltone is no exception to this rule but it can be cut by ordering directly over there where they have a decent price (barely more expensive than MXR)

    - With experience, you do again this choice? ...

    Clearly, YES!

    UTILIZATION

    T says it all, the setup is fairly simple.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use it with a Start and a US Hot Rod Deluxe. I was looking for a dlivrer pedals can overdrive a warm, natural and versatile.
    I use it mainly to play the blues, and I think that in this record, it excels. I apprcie particulirement trslgers for overdrive, which, with a good strat and a good Fender amp, works wonders.
    RULES with the gain to a minimum, it can even act as a boost.
    I prfre in "high peak".
    As it is clean and transparent trs, I can not find it on gniale amplifier transistors (its a bit loud) and I find that when you push the gain back, she left a little fuzz (with my stuff, anyway).
    I would like to use it with a humbucker in order to get more sounds mchants.

    Edit from 01/08/09:

    Recently, I possde an Ibanez RG 2620 which allowed me to redcouvrir OCD. Until recently, I came to him prfrer laCrunch Boxpour saturations enough shoots (when using strat Quema), the OCD too respect the grain of the single coils to get good saturation much feeding.
    With humbuckers (Ibanez those of, anyway), I use the prfre OCD for overdrive and many organic mchants well, that the Crunch Box does not allow (the sound is much more smooth, without much nuance).
    So, to résumé, I recommend the OCD with humbuckers, a hard!

    OVERALL OPINION

    This will make an ending for the year that I possde, but I use it only recently in my amp lights.
    I particulirement likes to sound the blues Stevie Ray (unfortunately, I'm not the same leg).
    In comparison, I tried the drunk driver in Boss (nice, but blah) and Blue Boy MI Audio from home (as if I nly, I would have taken too).
    Good qualitprix in the sense that if it was well chosen, we keep living, but it's not even for a given pedals when you have a limited budget.

    Pedal Overdrive / distortion of the analogue type.
    Jack IN and OUT
    Classical setting: Volume, Tone, Gain

    Its distinctive feature (the first strong point): it offers a choice between two modes of saturation: saturation greater distortion (type DS1), and a second more overdrive (tending a little to the fuzz).

    However, it has the defect of its quality: we would have liked a foot switch instead, especially in live condition. why I put 9 / 10.

    I have version 3.

    UTILIZATION

    Second strong point is adjustable very effective!
    Namely:
    1) a usable gain over the life of the potentiometer. Moving from a very light saturation, a big distortion
    2) a tone very efficient (very sensitive)
    3) a good amount of volume in reserve

    Weakness: régagles volume and tone to be adjusted from a saturation mode to another ... a shame because some exploitable live ... why I put 8 / 10.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Basic Setup: Fender Stratocaster 60 'Fender Hot Rod Deville +

    The quality of this pedal is felt right away! the two distortion are really very good. Foot pro!

    The highlight is that this pedal is really usable from a little grain to the saturated fat distortion (rock, eh, not metal!). it's really nice. We go from very soft to very hard without any difficulty.

    The distortion sounds like a DS1 but exploitable, low saturation and with an additional reserve saturation limit.
    The overdrive with a large grain, which as to the fuzz. A lot of personality.

    The saturations are very classic but no shortage of personalities. Sometimes a little cold though.

    Another (very) strong: respect undeniable guitar and exceptional momentum for a pedal of this type! even if we keep a dynamic saturation formidable!

    Weakness: the effect is accompanied by a low-cut filter. This is inconvenient because it becomes difficult to have good bass, and this means strong enough when the effect triggers. It can also be seen as an advantage: It may be interesting in the studio. Live, it helps make the band's sound less draft. So a small switch would have been welcome to enable or disable the low-cut ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    How long have you use it?
    6 months

    - What is so special that you like most and least?

    Most:
    -Versatility
    -Respect of the instrument and high dynamic
    Saturation-quality

    The -:
    -Cut down a little embarrassing, because loss bass.
    Tone-and volume settings to adjust when switching from one mode to another saturation.
    Otherwise the pedal would be perfect!

    - Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    Yes, not bad. I also have a Boss DS1. I wanted to move towards the big overdrive. It is sure to make a good choice with this pedal. After, it depends on the sound that is sought.

    - How would you rate the quality / price?
    The price to be quite varied. A € 150, the price / quality ratio is very good. At € 175 it is good, I bought it at 200 €, it's worth it.

    - With experience, you do again this choice? ...
    Did not find better for me. A classic to have in his pedal-board! effect of quality!

    If you possdes the first six albums of Zeppelin you s'ras not either!
    Anyway in conclusion, is to the ball but I will even buy a "Plexitone" by Carl Martin, Because you got the same sound but much more! Go to the test Plexitone! A big thank you to Davy PDAL Aviss Paris for his advice, no mind sucker.
    Matos: 76 Start, LP Custom, Rivera KnuckelHead55, axis fuzz, voodoo vibe RM, tube screamer, whammy, cry baby

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been three days that I have the two pedals (OCD and Plexitone), my ears bleeding and I must say that even when I had trouble choosing between the two.
    The grain of OCD in blues is a bit better but really a bit for the rest of Plexi has a crunch channel, a 20 db boost and a high gain channel. In addition, passing a little time on rglages there is no sound of OCD that I could not reproduce the Plexi and the reverse is not true. The quality of his pedals of both is really the same.
    on the other hand I m'demande What goes well I can use my Ibanez Tube Screamer? A tilt the amp, right?

    On 26/03/2009
    It's been a while since I now use the plexitone and I am always happy but given the current price in the States of OCD (145 USD) I have also cracked the pedals. Why? Because, with the Les Paul range of the crunch is limited to the first quarter of the knob "Crunch" the plexitone whereas with OCD can qualify more easily, and as I said, blues dj OCD is better then for 108 euros more I have both and that's good!
    Otherwise it is version 4 of OCD and ds as well I hack in every sense j'f'rai pter p'tit test as a blase Arkos Tina!
