OCTAVE PEDAL- BOSS OC-5 ...NEW! is this the one to beat???

 BOSS OC-5 OCTAVE PEDAL 
It has all the usual features. The one new thing is the 'Range'
control 
$130.00 USD
knob that lets allows you to do things like put a lower octave on the bass strings but leave the higher strings alone. A great idea. If you are finger picking or flat picking you can get the effect of being accompanied by a bass player. I can see those doing a solo folk thing on an acoustic guitar.At first glance it looks same old.It has all the features you would

CONCLUSION

Not a lot to complain about ...even the price is reasonable. The only thing with all octave pedals is the octave part of the signal has a sound/tone that has a coloration you will love, like or even hate. The E-H Micro Pod has been the winner for years ...you know it has been years as the name seems nuts when it is 4 times as big as what the industry labels as a Micro pedal. Not even E-H can duplicate the sound as they now have a few choices that all boast of being the 'new improved' but sound like crap in comparison.
