OCTAVE CLANG v2
CLANG, THE WAY IT’S MEANT TO BE.
The highly coveted Octave Clang has made a triumphant return to Death By Audio's Queens
workshop. Long presumed extinct, the OC was never really gone, merely in a state of
hibernation
—
evolving, refining, and enhancing its already extraordinary sound.
In th
e decade since it disappeared, we revisited the original Clang circuit, sculpting it into
something better
—
a more ferocious, menacing, and thunderous force that is as usable as
possible for today's musicians.
Embraced by professionals and punks alike, th
e vintage Octave Clang was created to unleash
distinctly unconventional tones that captivated the senses. In this it succeeded, but many users
found it difficult to tame. Today, we’ve refined and extended the range of the original controls,
added a footswi
tchable octave, and did some under
-
the
-
hood supercharging.
The resulting circuit is an insane yet versatile beast, empowering you to easily sculpt discordant
ringing drones, visceral octave scrapes, and ground
-
shaking distortion. The revitalized Octave
Cl
ang
is primed and ready to destroy!
OUTER CONTROLS
Bypass/Left Footswitch
-
Turns the Octave Clang on and off (red LED).
Octave/Right Footswitch
-
Toggles the Octave Up mode (yellow LED). The yellow LED stays
on/off when the pedal is bypassed to indica
te if the Octave Up is engaged.
[
Volume
]
-
Controls the output level. Goes from totally silent to extremely loud. When set
above your normal volume, it propels your chain into overdrive.
[
Gain
]
-
Sets the gain of the Octave Clang. This can (and will) drive the rest of the circuit
into overdrive and fuzz. Can provide up to +39dB of gain.
[
Tone
]
-
A powerful pre
-
gain tilt EQ, this control adjusts the amount of highs and lows
going into the rest
of the circuit. This can make the octave and fuzz react very differently;
overloading the lows yields a larger, more blown
-
out sound whereas overloading the highs gives
a more cutting and clear sound.
