Frank SwartWe will never stop kneeling before the gods of Sonics but O-Knobs
definitely provide another really creative OPTION to pedal playing.
Jon DurstHere is a photo of my pedalboard. I play with a country band in and around houston tx called "Lonely Road". I love my option knobs and the freedom i have with them, i use it most to blend in and out my #1 echo.
I use a classic Oknob to control the drive on an Indyguitarist modded Boss SD-1 super overdrive.
Jeff EnglerI received the optionknob classic. A very nice product.Very sturdy and great bang for your buck.Currently I’m using it on a Boss DD5 to control delay level. A much better solution than a "third hand" pedal.(I hear they are crappily made) or an old EH Hot Foot. Good luck with your product. I’ll be spreadin" da word.
brilliant idea, i love the option knob. i use it on my delay and my loop station. i've always wondered why nobody had come up with this idea before,i always wanted something like this!!
This device is one of those clever inventions that make you wonder why no one thought of it long ago. I've only used it for a week, but it seems sufficiently sturdy and works as advertised.
Phillip Dodge"The Option Knob is great. I use the classic model to adjust the delay time on my Digitech and Visual Sound H20 delay pedals. I have also been using one to adjust speed and/or depth on my Marshall Vibratrem. I use a boutique model to adjust the balance of the clean vs. distortion blend on my Voodoo Labs Sparkle Drive. They work great and allow me to make quick changes without taking my hands off of the guitar. Something tells me I am just at the tip of the iceberg for finding uses for the Option Knob..."
I am using the classic option knob on the Ibanez analog delay and the Boss DD-5 delay.Thanks again! What a great tool....
Ketil StrandI was just sitting one day thinking there should have been a way to control the knobs on my guitar pedals with my feet instead of having to bend down to the floor all the time. And I searched the internet to see if anybody else had thought of that, and, guess what; you guys had! The option knob is ingenious (like I would have invented it myself..)! I bought three of them for now, and I might be buying more later. Thanks for a great product!
HarI have the Option Knob on the Boss DD20 GigaDelay (white dual pedal on upper tier, second from left), controlling the delay's Feedback level. I use the DD20 for long delay-based looping for dark-ambient soundscaping, and the Option Knob lets me easily tweak the loops. I do many solo live-in-the-studio performances on my weekly online radio show "Nightscaping" on Stillstream.com, and the Option Knob really is key to making the performances run smoothly. I also use the Option Knob as part of my live bass rig, to control drive levels.
Steve MessinaIm grateful for this amazing tool. Extremely easy fit on any pot shaft, The strongest man made material I have ever seen. No worries, it does not protrude and is 1000x better than a mechanical exp pedal that would take up a lot of space on the board. You can drive the knob like a steering wheel. I really like that. Thanks for making this.
Hugo Ivan EstradaI use the option knob on three pedals, my favorite is in my MXR Phase 90, has an interesting probabilities allows me to have real-time control of my sound, it's very experimental¡¡¡¡
On the Tr-2 from Boss it is very useful, without a need to kneel down for set the rate.
And of Course my Digital Delay, someone mark a difference when you set the delay on time on a performance.
Option Knob is always with me, a new inovation for an experimental, dared, guitar or bass player.
You have to do it¡¡
Raphael VanoliI think option knob is an effective and ingenious little tool that
really opens up new dimensions to the usage of pedals. It makes
knob-turning much more dynamic and precise, works great when played
with your hands and doesn't add significant weight to pedalboards. I
was really happy to find such a controler that stimulates your
creativity so much
Dirk / Softcore ExplosionI'm using the Optionknob with my Boss DD-7 to control the Feedback. I like the Optionknob because it is easy to install, easy to use and it is much more cheaper than an expression pedal. I'll install another Optionknob on my EHX Small Stone. As the Small Stone has no expression pedal input, the Option Knob is the number one choice to control the speed of phasing with my foot. Way to go, Optionknob! Cheers, Dirk
Matt WalbergTwisting and turning my toes now learning
To do what my fingers did
Lost my old knob, The "O" does the job
Melts face and blows off yer lid
No bending over, my soul's controller
The idea I wish I had had
For this here invention, I know it is destined
For pedals across the land
Option Knob, you are a treat.
Charlie YarwoodHere's my current pedalboard layout. Nutty, yes, but I like it. Notice the Oknobs on the vibrato (Rate) and delay (D-level) pedals to the left. Very handy. Reflective tape on the "pointer" wings of the Oknobs helps tell the difference between 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock.
It is definitely the simplest way for the stomp box gang
to expand expression of the sound.
I'm using an Option Knob for my ATD/First Act V-Stack Classic to adjust the amount
of its gain("Drive") level.
I used 2 V-Stack Classic stomp boxes for both a crunch rhythm sound and a lead sound.
Now I have one with an Option Knob!
I'm even looking forward to the Knob with a LED glowing!!!!!
