I already have the OCD and love it but i would be curious to try a Rat. Do you think it is worth to have both ? They sound pretty similar, but for me : OCD fuller/bassier sound, Rat has a bit more gain, less bass and is more midrangey.
I got my OCD from a pawnshop, and it is a great pedal. But, i have a doubt, the OCD 1.7 on/off button has been always so stiff to activate or is some rare characteristic from mine?, When i bough it I passed a large time trying to turn on the pedal until I tryed pressing hard the button until I heard the "clack" that it make. It requirres a more strengh to activate it than any pedal with the same kind of button that I've have, when I get activate it the first time I thought that I had broken it.
Hi, I have 2 Ocd but neither of them has the problem you describe, it almost seems that your switch is broken. If it is under warranty, take it back to the shop and have it fixed. Update me if you get it fixed and if you want, subscribe 😉
@@kev_k_life2799 Unfortunatelly it dont have warranty, local pawnshops just give warranty to home appliances, smartphones and some tools. Instruments and related gear don't are cover, they are unknow technology for they. I had heard about some pedals that have true bypass switches make a "clack" sound when they are pressed, I though that was normal, bur rare to same time. I'll try send it with a technican that checks and reparir pedals, change the switch shouldn't be so expensive, I guess. Thanks for the tip, you got a new sub. Greets! :)
It may not be obvious in this demo, but these two pedals are very different from one another in my experience. The OCD is more dynamic and has way more bass. The Rat is more compressed and mid-focused. If I had both on my board (and I have in the past) I’d use the OCD for rhythm and the Rat for leads.
I'm noticing that every time I check out videos like this the pedals are usually set with the gain/distortion way up. I've used two Rat pedals for over 30 years, but one is set at 9 oclock and the other at 10. If I want super gain I use both (solo for Cult of Personality) but that's rare. The sound is tighter without so much gain. Here's a video of me with them through a Roland JC120: ua-cam.com/video/oUYRwGzkitE/v-deo.html
Rat sounds like a Cheap Fizzy-Toy = "All Static" & Zero note-definition. OCD is fantastic. If you want a Rat-ish - get the Jam Pedals Rattler - or the New Sinvertek No5+
Both can really produce a rewarding distortion tone if you know how to dial them in, and understand how each responds with different amplifiers.

I have them both, I use the ocd with humbucker and the Rat with p90😉
i have ocd 1.4 version and mooer blck secret clon of procorat, they are very similar but rat has more gain and less bass
Good Job!! Fulltone all the way! RAT is more like grunge-type sounds, while OCD is more traditional rock.

You can actually get a nice overdriven sound with the rat
