Fulltone OCD v1.4 🆚 Wampler Plexi Drive Mini

Fulltone OCD v1.4 Vs Wampler Plexi Drive Mini
In this episode, we'll be comparing the Fulltone OCD v1.4 and the Wampler Plexi Drive Mini. We'll be checking out the low gain, medium gain and both pedals with the gain maxed out. We'll compare their tone, level and gain controls as well.

The pedals are going through a Vox AC15c1, set clean. The master volume is cranked and the Normal channel volume is a 9 o'clock. The amp is mic'd with a Shure SM57, set off axis. How close do they get, or how different are they from one another? Let me know in the comments!

Weird comparison. The OCD is best used as a boost pedal, while the Plexi Drive is more of an always-on pedal. I would stack the OCD into the PD and see what happens 🤔

[GTRxMan]

Nice comparison. Plexi sounded much better to me. It's a little brighter and even distorted you can hear the individual notes in the chords. OCD sounded dark and rolled off.

[garcol]

Plexi sounds kinda anemic against the OCD at low to mid gain, but at full gain it definitely pulls ahead, OCD starts sounding too dark. I’ve noticed that with my ocd too and to counter that I put a Tone City Wildfire in front of it, they sound awesome together. Great comparison🤙🏼

Great video with superb editing and sound! I prefer the plexidrive. A bit smoother (softer clipping) than the hard clipping OCD and also more open sounding. Similarities between Wampler Pantheon and Plexidrive soundwise so maybe Plexidrive is a bluesbreaker-circuit as well.

[mantashaft]

OCD has more upper mid and the plexi seems a bit more scooped. I guess whatever fits your gear and your ear. (TM)

[jonschwieb]

Interesting. Yeah the Plexi is clearer. Much better to me. The OCD sounds muffled.

[trahnettilhcs]

Both of them sound lovely and I could take either sound and work with it. Your base tonality is excellent as well, really good pedal selection for the Vox. Thanks for this

[ifturnedouttobe]

Both sound great but the Plexi Drive is nastier...

[piemonte]

I can’t really tell from this video, but I feel that the ocd colors my sound a bit and that bothers me. How does the plexi mini behave in this particular aspect?

[BMitchell]

Plexi drive for the win. Ocd is great but plexi all day.

[nevershoutgraham]

Both sound amazing! What do you think the best MIAB style pedal for getting Van Halen type tones out of a Vox is? I've fallen in love with Vox cleans, but I just worry about the gain!

[kosmicwizard]

Plexi is fizzy, ocd sounds like it has a blanket over the cab (much like many Marshall amps and humbucker loaded guitars).

[mdmusic]

The Plexi Drive mini sounds clean and with so much punch!!! I also got the Deluxe Version with the EQ!Killer tones!!!🥊
