Foxrox Electronics Octron 2 Octave

Why Octron2?

Octron2 is the limited-production version of the Foxrox Octron pedal. Since it's debut in April of 2005, the original Octron pedal has been hailed as a super-organic sounding, high quality analog Octave pedal. It's the only current-production boutique Octave pedal to offer both one octave Up and one octave Down.

In May of 2005 Frank Marino became one of the first Octron users, and he offered some great feedback on what he'd love to see in an Octave pedal. I took his suggestions and used them to make improvements in the original Octron, along with the suggestions of others and came up with something cool, new and unique - Octron 2.

Frank modified his Octron for additional control, and this is what Octron 2 is all about. Franks mods give him the ability to switch the three signals (Oct Up, Direct, and Oct Down) with his foot, in addition to master bypass.

What makes Octron2 different from the original Octron?

Octron2 is identical to the original Octron, with the addition of the following features-
- Individual foot switch to activate each of the three signals, Octave Up, Direct, and Octave Down.
- Individual LED for each of the three foot switches
- Master true-bypass foot switch w/LED mounted on upper level.
- Effects loop located after the effect, but before the foot switch.
