What's a good octave pedal? (1 Viewer)

[mark]

Surely a harmonised note is an octave above or below what your playing. I understand that some pedals will be better at identifying what note your playing but your explanation, my god, doesn't explain a thing!

is an octave not the same note at a different pitch, where as a harmonised note is a different note altogether? an octave of 'c' is still 'c'.

god, and i'm hoing to be a teacher...

or maybe you're just all stoopid! yeah, thats it.

that's bollox... a harmonized note could be a 3rd or a 5th or 7th or a anything really depending on what you describe as "harmony", the idea that it "surely" is an octave is nonsense.... how long have you been playing guitar?

great thread

According to wikipedia an octave is basically the interval between the first and second harmonic. The third harmonic is an octave and a half above the fundamental frequency. It does get way more complicated than that though:

Presumably a harmonic is different to a harmonised note like a fifth.

So a three piece will never sound like Lizzy, is that whats been said here right?!?

Look at my illusions. Look at them! All over the ground...

Yep and that music theory is way too complicated.

harmony and harmonics are two totally different things

With repsect, what do you know about the serious business of molten twin lead guitar phrases anyway?

Have you ever licked the neck of a les paul while holding a sustained note for 60 seconds?

Have you ever experienced the feeling of a trapped fart in a pair of spandex leggings?

You're way outta your league man.

Yeah hence the two different links.

Thin Lizzy were a 3 piece for the first threee records. So yes,a 3 piece van sound like Lizzy.

This is a good octave pedal?

I want this octave pedal!
It's made by 4ms pedals, an open source pedal building group in America.
You can buy customised pedals from them or buy the parts and build them yourself. The share all the schematics too so anyone can build and mod them.

Ok then... My absolute favorite Lizzy song is Little Girl In Bloom from Vagabonds of The Western World... They were a three piece on that record right? There is a TON of multi tracking on the vocals on that tune. So that dual guitar sound that opens that song and comes in at the end of the solo (just before the drums come back in and the solo continues) is that just studio carry on with multi tracking or is it a pedal? if so, what pedal is it? an octave?
