V2? - I didn't know there was a V1!

E-dub 06.06.2022

This pedal solves the problem of "will my modulation pedal work well with this distortion pedal"? Answer?...yes.

Should this pedal be on your board at your 80's Hair Metal band audition?
Answer?...I think not, the distortion has more of a thrash feel to it.

I was intrigued after watching a demo and decided to make the purchase. I really like the distortion side as it doesn't sound like anything I already have on my board (ODR-1, Lightspeed, and PackRat) and as mentioned above its got a thrash feel to it.

Adding to the EXCESS's versatility is that the modulation and distortion can be used independently, the effect order can be changed from Distortion 1st, Modulation 1st, or Parallel.

If you are like me and already own a multiple distortion pedals and 1, or two modulation pedals is this worth it? Answer?... Yes. The Fifth's effect makes it unique and I was surprised at how musical it sounds with and without distortion. The expression pedal input means you make this pedal do weird things with your foot.

You know how this part goes: 5 stars for sound and features. I didn't buy this pedal thinking it was going to replace other pedals but was hoping it would provide a creative spark - and it did!

Cheers!

Absolut toll!

der verlorene Faden 13.01.2023

Nachdem ich ein Demovideo gesehen hab musste ich das Pedal sofort haben. Hab mich direkt verliebt. Mit meinem Bass oder meiner Gitarre lassen sich wunderbar sphärische Töne zaubern ("fifth") und meine drone Box ballert ordentlich harschen Noise mit der distortion Funktion. Macht Spaß und sieht gut aus. Ein sehr guter Kauf <3

La perfezione

Narratore Urbano 08.12.2022

Il suono della distorsione è ricco di armoniche ed estremamente versatile soprattutto sulle medio basse, il chorus perfetto, va da territori flanger a univibe senza mai snaturarsi.
Unico difetto la lunghezza del delay, essendo slapback risulta molto corto e poco utilizzabile in maniera standard (ma è comunque una cosa chiara al momento dell’acquisto se si guarda video demo a riguardo.

Good idea, bad execution

andrey_andreysha 20.03.2024

Had this pedal for about 2-3 months, and i'm quite frustrated with it. For a while used it on practices with a band(indie, alternative). Originally I was stunned with the idea of combining such cool effects in one pedal. OBNE made handful of great pedals and they still have my respect, but it's just not it. These are my overall pros and cons:

Pros:
-Parallel/mod. first/dist. first switch, it's very useful in different circumstances
-Fifths, nice effect, but didn't find a way to use it in a live
-Chorus is quite nice
-Box and packaging had my applause

Cons
-VERY NOISY, with and without effects
-Delay is bland
-Distortion is a mess
-Overall sound is cheap
-Bypass knob placement(it will be a problem if you are going to place it in your pedalboard)

In conclusion, the title speaks for itself.
