Hi, this is Kai - I invented the original Nobels ODR-1 circuit in 1992 ;-) Thank you for the nice comment on my ODR-C (ODR-CC+).
Btw. you can read my development of the ODR-1 on my website ;-)
It is really funny to see how many other pedal makers were inspired of (or copied) my ODR-1

[frankenstein]

I've got the ODR-1BC, the mini and got the Karma ODR-10 as soon as it was released. The ODR-1's I use as clean boosts, but the ODR-10 is one of my best drive pedals!

[karmaguitaramplifiers]

Hi Corey,
Somebody just led me to your video stream on ODRs. Thank you so much for the kind words, and thank you for doing such a great comparison. I've seen other guys demo this pedal (and others) with the drive cranked up so much it's hard to even tell what the actual sound is. It looks like you set it pretty much the same as I do.
I'm sorry we didn't get a chance to meet and work together when I was still in Nashville. My player friends are what I miss the most!
Thanks again and feel free to reach out if you need anything I can help you with...Greg

Modern Nobels ODR-1 with the Bass Cut Switch is awesome 🤘 great video Corey

[ArvidNielsen]

Great stuff, man 👍🏻

I have a Nobles Mini and a Boss GE-1. Totally, happy!

[danthegeetarman]

Hands-down best nobels odr-1 shootout of all time. Well done corey!!! The nobels odr is my favorite pedal and to see this whole video of shootouts has been amazing

[Bobby_Digital]

Absolutely love my Nobels 30th anniversary!!! Amazing demo! Thank you Corey!!!

[michaelhadley]

Best Nobels clone compare online, hands down! Great job. Love the honesty. I've been torn between Nordland and Belle, but I learned about Karma through this video. Will likely end up with both a Karma and Norland for my own A/B test, and keep the winner. This helped tremendously. I'm now subscribed.

[martiboucat]

I'm a Belle owner. I love this pedal as a boost, as a mid gain and as a full gain od. I'm not completely sold on the minipedal format and the kind of switch but for the 100€ i paid for it i think it's phenomenal. Wampler should make a dual pedal with a Belle + Tumnus + the gate on the Andy Wood Gearbox
I remember hearing and ODR style drive for the first time. It was on a That pedal show when the Shanks was released and they were blown away with it. Since then they did a bunch of ODR shows. - When Wampler came with the Belle i thought... "now's the time!"
Great livestream, Corey!! Great stuff as always.
Careful with the mic when switching from livestream to the videos ;-) Other than that, beautiful stuff and fantastic production.

[richpesce]

Love the Marvelous 3 shirts, I also have the 30th anniversary, the Karma, the Shanks, and the Buckartie Boo. All great pedals.

[danthegeetarman]

So glad to see you did this video!!! Bummed I missed it live but so glad I can still watch the replay. And yeah, I’ve been saying it for a while but the original Nobels odr-1 is getting into mythical status since so many people are cloning it now. Also the originals are in the $2000 range which is pretty impressive for an originally $40 pedal 💛💚

[tnvalleyyoga]

Hey Corey, Amos, here, happy to see you putting more stuff on YT again. Consider pedals that give some of that Dumble sound.

[danthegeetarman]

Woah. The karma ODR-10 sounded like the switched wasn’t working for a second. Visually I was seeing the light change but I wasn’t hearing any difference. Amazing. Glad I have one of those too.

[JeffKeel]

great Live Corey wish i could of been here live. I have a bukartie boo. and Love it. I've played Ford's nobles and it's as close as I've come to those as far as feel. So many choices. They all sound great.

[alancirwin]

I’m extremely critical of pedals and get along with very few. I picked up a 30th anniversary ODR-1 and it’s absolutely incredible. Absolutely wonderful organic feels like an amp. It’s pretty amazing. It has crunch warmth and clarity. All at the same time feels supernatural under the fingers and the base cut knob is perfect. You can dial it in so it feels just under your fingers and you sit perfectly in the mix

[lastofthehorsemen]

The Noebles ODR1 is my all time favorite pedal if you havent tried it you owe it to yourself.Awesome pedal.

[flippednickel]

I have an off the shelf modern ODR-1 and using the bass cut switch gets you to the same place. Loving mine and it is not leaving my board. Great job highlighting all of these!!

[charleshale]

Got a 30th not too long ago; it's fantastic on bass of all things. Kicked every other drive off the board

[Bfordandafter]

I have the 30th Anniversary Gold pedal on the way. Can't wait.
