{"product_id":"old-blood-noise-endeavors-excess-v2-366814","title":"Excess V2","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA modern interpretation of 80s textures, by OBNE\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the Excess V2, Old Blood Noise Endeavors pursues a clear idea: to recapture the spirit of sought-after 80s sounds (lush modulations, expressive repeats, offset harmonies) while adding the flexibility expected by modern pedalboards. This V2 further expands the possibilities thanks to an advanced interaction between modulation and saturation, and a \"studio\" approach to routing that allows stacking, separating, or merging circuits according to your musical intent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is not just a \"vintage\" pedal, but a sound design tool capable of shifting from an immediate, edgy grain to more crafted atmospheres, with a true sense of dynamics and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor which guitarists and styles?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Excess V2 is aimed at guitarists who like to build their sound like a landscape: biting riffs, chorus arpeggios, edgy delays, fifth harmonies to thicken a theme, or more noise-oriented layers. It suits both \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate\u003c\/strong\u003e musicians looking for an inspiring pedal and effects veterans wanting a highly modular \"modulation + drive\" unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt excels in aesthetics where texture matters as much as the note: alternative rock, post-punk, new wave, shoegaze, indie, modern pop, and even some more experimental approaches. Live, its series\/parallel routing allows quick adaptation of playing clarity to the mix context, while in the studio it becomes an excellent source of colors to double takes or create verse\/chorus variations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and controls: one pedal, multiple architectures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eModulation\u003c\/strong\u003e section offers three modes: \u003cstrong\u003eDelay\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eChorus\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eFifth\u003c\/strong\u003e. Whatever the chosen mode, you have controls designed for quick access to sound: \u003cstrong\u003etime\u003c\/strong\u003e (or speed), \u003cstrong\u003edepth\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003evolume\u003c\/strong\u003e of the section. The Fifth mode adds this harmonized fifth color, ideal for densifying a riff, giving a \"synth-like\" character to a simple pattern, or creating parallel lines with the right hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eDistortion\u003c\/strong\u003e section is adjusted via \u003cstrong\u003eGain\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eTone\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eVolume\u003c\/strong\u003e, covering a wide range: from a light, grainy overdrive to a fuzz-like, thicker, more blurred distortion with attack and compression. The real interest comes from how it combines with modulation: you can place it \u003cstrong\u003einside\u003c\/strong\u003e the modulation, put it \u003cstrong\u003eafter\u003c\/strong\u003e to dirty and thicken repeats, or choose a \u003cstrong\u003eparallel path\u003c\/strong\u003e to keep a solid direct signal while adding a modulated layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach section has its own switching with \u003cstrong\u003eSoft Touch\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003etrue relay bypass\u003c\/strong\u003e, handy for activating only what you need at the moment. For expressive playing, an \u003cstrong\u003eexpression input\u003c\/strong\u003e allows controlling \u003cstrong\u003espeed\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003edepth\u003c\/strong\u003e of the modulation from an external pedal. Finally, an \u003cstrong\u003einternal trimpot\u003c\/strong\u003e lets you precisely adjust the dry\/wet mix of the Modulation section to adapt the effect's presence to your amp, pickups, or your place in the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Excess V2 offers a deliberately \"characterful\" signature: modulation that can range from subtle chorus movement to more pronounced repeats, and a Fifth mode that provides immediate harmonic thickness, almost like a discreet second guitar aligned with your playing. The distortion is very effective at adding relief: in gentle settings, it adds bite and a grainy texture\u0026#59; pushing the gain makes it more blurred and saturated, with a sense of mass and compression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRouting is the key to its musicality: in series, you sculpt an \"effect within the effect\" chain (for example, modulation becoming dirtier and more intense passing through distortion). In parallel, you get a clearer attack and a more stable low end, while enjoying a modulated layer that dresses the sound without overpowering it. An ideal pedal for those who like pick dynamics and chord choices to truly transform the final texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical
