Boss Octaver OC-2
The Octaver is the Japanese version of the Dual Octave pedal OC-2. You won't believe the thickness of the sounds. The OC-2 reproduces 3 separate tones: the original tone, one octave below, and 2 octaves below. Each of these parts has its own volume control, so they can be mixed as desired.

I use this in front of an E-H Microsynth, and find it improves tracking. Also I like the sub octave better than the Micro synth's, and several cheap digital pitchbenders I've had. It's a fat, slightly muffeled squarewave analog sound. While some players of the unmentionable stringed instrument hate the random trigger flutter when playing chords it's a feature. Sounds like old style computer blips. Alternating chaotic input with more clean monofonic sound gets it to trigger fairly reliable on the latter only. "Playable" .
Good Points: Gets me some bass from my contact miked egg slicer. (arghh, how many of you have to lie to not have their review deleted? Is noise & experimental so heavily protocolled?)
Bad Points: Having to schlepp this along for just the one trick it does . First thing to go when the case won't close.
