Моя первая педаль Flexi Crunch хотя люблю музыку с Distortion,посмотрев обзоры с Flexi Crunch я в неë влюбился. Теперь она у меня под ногой и моя девушка (гитара) запела так что я на жопу сел.Вспомнил о новых дорогих струнах ждущих своего времени. Оно настало 😍😍😍
Found my old fender fm212r 10 years after I sold it at a shop and bought it back just because it had a lot of memories and i can't pass up on it after I was leaning over it looking at a guitar when i found it. Sold it to an older guy on Craigslist. Well it obviously doesn't have the marshall sound I like but it's a pretty loud amp. Only pedal they had when i bought it back was one of these plexi crunch pedals. Figured why not?.. very surprising!!! Going to keep both and throw a maxon dod, chorus, suppressor and some other stuff in the mix on a pedal board. Think it'll sound awesome and do more than I expected when i bought the pedal for a budget minded build! Seriously made me rethink what a cheap pedal was. Not a plexi I agree though. More of a jcm 800 sound or marshall solid state. Very nice though. 👌
If it sounds great with your rig, that is all that is important. The word "affordable" has really changed since I was a kid. Back when I started playing (the mid 80's) cheap meant it was no good. Basically a throw-away instrument with no redeeming qualities. Today, the word "cheap" just means easy on the wallet. This really is the golden age of gear. You want a Klon? There are plenty of companies making clones, and you can even get one on the affordable side too. We are spoiled when it comes to great, affordable gear. Thanks for sharing! Cheers
OCD is the winner for me 100 percent. The nux still did what it's supposed to do and made your vox sound more like a Marshall. I'm a fan of these nux pedals.
I don't like either, but for different reasons. The nux is nice and bright, but level and gain seem to do nothing to make the base tone you have setup any better. As for the ocd it's too dark, but I like it at both 1:34 and 2:36. If the tone on the ocd was at 1 or 2 o'clock, I think it would be less dark and then I would see if I wanted to use it as a boost or if it was better with the drive turned up.
Nothing beats my Zvex Distortron when it comes to MIAB, but these two head-t-head was very revealing to me. The NUX is not so pleasant on it's own, but would indeed cut through a mix better. The OCD is smoother but perhaps too smooth.
This demo doesn't really show the versatility of the Nux Plexi Crunch. It's not a pedal where you sweep the knobs and get a good sound. It's a pedal where you can dial in your tone, with great affect by tweaking those knobs to get the right sound. I won't disregard the OCD being legendary, but know the Plexi Crunch is pretty great for $49. It has so many Marshall tones packed into that little pedal.
OCD for the win - *but* the NUX would definitely cut through the mix. It's mid-pushed with a fair amount of low-end rollof. That'll get you heard. I do like that NUX pedal's EQ, seems semi-active? It's obviously going for the JCM900 thing and does an okay job of it.
Like other commenters, I like the OCD better, especially with tone up (it seems pretty dark to me). Couldn’t figure out what was going on with the NUX tone control, though, there at the end! The presence knob made sense, but that tone control! Some weird options in there, haha.
The tone control is basically the same as you'd find on the orange terror amps. 0 = scooped and 10 = ALL THE MIDS. The presence knob is more akin to what a traditional tone knob does in most guitar pedals.
Really interesting comparison if you ask me. The nux is obviously branded as Marshall inspired but the OCD has always had a bit of the marshally thing too to my ears. The two pedals would sit in the same place on most peoples boards as a higher gain crunch so the comparison is definitely worthwhile. For me the ocd was the clear winner. Much fuller and more rounded. The Ramble FX Marvel 3 is on my list of ones to try. Would definitely give that ocd a run for its money.
This is why I did this particular video. I've heard it said that the OCD is similar in circuitry to an MXR Distortion +, but many think it does the whole MIAB thing. So, I decided to compare both of these pedals to determine whether one did the MIAB thing better than the other. I leave it up to the viewer to determine which did it best.
I think the nux sound more like a original plexi super lead tone... more kranked, the ocd sounds with to much low end...in a lead setup i think it will sound too mudy, maybe for a fender with a stratocaster for play blues or clasic rock it Will be ok, but i preffer in first place for a full lead tone the carl Martin panama and in second place the nux !!
I am missing a metal or hard rock rhythm since the nux sounds more like a jcm 800/900 than a plexi... it is not a pedal to play clean... there the nux beats it

I love my Plexi crunch.
It's a great pedal. Do you have any other NUX pedals?

ocd is the best over/distortion pedal. the nux is the same pedal of joyo deluxe crunch??

OCD. A true classic! And built like a tank 🤩👍
It sure is built very solid. I would not be afraid to do a tour with it.
OCD. A true classic! 🤩✌️
It's not my favorite pedal, but it does have it's place on my board on occasion.
@@TheToneLounge Agree! 👍

NUX has some great budget pedals. I've kept my Analog Delay and Chorus as they sound really darn good.

I have an independent video of the Plexi Crunch, where I go in detail.
OCD for the win - *but* the NUX would definitely cut through the mix. It's mid-pushed with a fair amount of low-end rollof. That'll get you heard.
I do like that NUX pedal's EQ, seems semi-active? It's obviously going for the JCM900 thing and does an okay job of it.
The only thing I think is to be revised on that Nux is the gain sweep. It does not have enough variety in the sweep. Otherwise, it has it's place.

The Nux is a bit of a different beast lol. Not a bad pedal at all, just very different.
The tone control is basically the same as you'd find on the orange terror amps. 0 = scooped and 10 = ALL THE MIDS.
The presence knob is more akin to what a traditional tone knob does in most guitar pedals.

Man the Nux sounds really exclusive to old school metal songs.
And it's always on high gain no matter what.
Yeah, it's pretty gainy for a Plaxi style amp.
I’ll keep my OCD but thanks for the comparison!
My pleasure. Which version do you have?
@@TheToneLounge I believe it’s the 1.7
OCD wins 🤘
The sound is completely different, what is the sense for such a A/B compare?
The point is to examine two pedals and determine if they have anything in common or if they are 100% different from one another.
@@TheToneLounge Well, then I think the task done best. Nothing common, at least for my ears thru my acoustics))
I think the nux sound more like a original plexi super lead tone... more kranked, the ocd sounds with to much low end...in a lead setup i think it will sound too mudy, maybe for a fender with a stratocaster for play blues or clasic rock it Will be ok, but i preffer in first place for a full lead tone the carl Martin panama and in second place the nux !!
The only thing I do not like about the Plexi Crunch is that it has too much gain right out of the gate.
@@TheToneLounge that means plexi crunch is not good as overdrive ...
I like NUX pedals, but it doesn’t sound as good as the OCD .
I am missing a metal or hard rock rhythm since the nux sounds more like a jcm 800/900 than a plexi... it is not a pedal to play clean... there the nux beats it
For that heavier tone, the NUX is a great choice.
nux plexi crunch is poo poo. ocd for the easy win on every front :)
In this case I think the OCD really does something cool. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the OCD versus future pedals in this series.
$50 vs $500
It wasn't at the time of filming this.
