The original Fulltone OCD pedal was regarded for its clear and amp-like response with dynamic overdrive tones. The V2 incarnation adds in a brand new ''Class A'' buffer to give a full-tonal range and enhanced harmonic content, much like the way preamps can be used to improve a guitar's overall signal and responsiveness.
The OCD V2 is a dynamic overdrive pedal with switchable HP/LP switch to give you the ability to change the response from a more ''British'' vibe with increased mid-range and break-up, to a cleaner signal that is ideal for use as a clean booster into an already overdriven signal chain. It includes tone, volume and drive controls to sculpt your sound to exactly how you prefer to utilise the pedal, whether that is as out-an-out heavy overdrive sound through to a cleaner boost that can complement your existing setup.
The OCD V2 features a switchable buffer, giving you the choice of a true bypass operation or the brand new ''enhance bypass'' feature. This was developed by Michael Fuller to provide a fuller tone with additional harmonic content that is incredible sympathetic to your existing guitar tone. If you're familiar with the way that guitarists used to use the Echoplex EP-3 for its preamp alone, you'll find a similar response with the Fulltone OCD V2, and your playing dynamic range will be increased with no tone-loss through long cable runs.
The OCD V2 accomplishes its tube-like distortion through the unusual combination of overdriving its JFET op-amp, and then hard-clipping with a pair of MOSFETs later on in the circuit. This circuit works very well with a vast array of guitars and amps. Because of its large amount of available output volume, the OCD works great as a booster in front of amps, as well as through Master-Volume amps to drive them much harder than most overdrive pedals can, but it also excels at creating its own distortion with all the chime of a Class A amp and its complex array of overtones.
