Enter the shame zone. Bought some Mooer turds with my Christmas gift card haul.

Sounded particularly smooth and gorgeous dialed in with a mild EOB gain setting with a Caline Queen Bee (Mad Professor Sweet Honey OD clone) in front of it. The Caline Queen Bee has been one of my favourite low gain ODs ever. I flipped it also, because some drives in the Helix got me close. But I do still miss it. Been requesting L6 for a model of it since forever.

Yeah, a Wampler Belle is already on my "sort of next to buy" list. For my use case it's a better choice than the original ODR-1.

Much to @la szum probable chagrin; the Blues Driver clone is fucking awesome. Really good on it's own (if you dig that specific Boss sheen which I do) OR on top of amp gain. Put it in front of the Stealth and the Badlander and it is a winner. I will probably end up with the real deal Waza version later this year
Heck no! I am glad you dig it. And bonus points for the use of "chagrin."

The Tumnus Deluxe overtook the OCD in my GOAT OD rankings. I so want to try the Belle to see if Brian sprinkled his magic fairy dust on that too.

Is it an OCD variant?

It’s a Klon, but the Duluxe has a hot mode and three way EQ. It’s awesome.

I have not. I actually need to grab an ACTUAL OCD at some point

Fill me in, what is "that thing" the various OCD circuits do for you? How are you using them?
I always found it dry/stiff and rather uninspiring, not musical at all.
But since it's still so popular...?

Same. That and I could never find the sweet spot with the LP/HP switch. One too thin. The other too tubby.

Use it to add a layer of sizzle on top. Most of my OD pedals are ran kind of in between the two traditional approaches (level hammered OR as a borderlinedistortion pedal)?
For me; I never run level at 10, gain down super low. I'm usually level close to halfish then drive and tone to taste. Enough where the drive character is present but not too much to where ALL the gain you hear is the flavor coming from the pedal.

I added a bass cut to my favourite OCD clone, absolutely transformed the pedal with my les paul. I found it unusable with certain guitars previously.

I had the EHX OD Glove, and a Mosky OCD clone at some point. The EHX OD Glove was
Stumbled upon it when looking for a Marshall in a box type drive pedal.
