Visual Sound Open Road #1

[MarcusWannerMusic]

This is a fantastic pedal. So clear, no mud. I'm definately gonna get one of these. Another thing. The tone knob is actually useful. Most drive pedals are too bright past 2 o'clock and to dull below 10. Props to VS. Some people compare this to the tubescreamer, and don't get me wrong I use the tubescreamer more than anything on my board right now. It has a cool compressed sound and a lot of mids. This has no mids above unity and is clear as an Appalachian stream. It is a whole different animal.

I brought an H2O and a Route 66 from New York, and now I keep wanting an Open Road and a Jekyll and Hyde. Too bad I gotta import them now. You can't get enough of these.

Ladies and gentlemen, the only pedal that requires neither the input or output to be plugged in order to work!

Seriously, sounds awesome.

[wakomura7]

nice pedal...but in my country is so expansive..the price is RM690 huhuhuhuhu

[AmazingTone]

I like these sound samples. What do you guys think though, would it sound awful if I'd try to spice up the crystal clean tone of a Roland JC?

visual sound should definetly looking into combining the open road and their compressor. i like this od a lot more than the route 808 drive, but i'm pretty strapped for cash and need a compressor as well without shelling out $100 for each. and i've got a feeling i'm not the only one. for now, i think i'll save up for the route 66, but i think an Open/66 combo would be just as popular as a route 66 (or more)

Okay here is the ultimate thing that Visual sound could do. Seeing that most everything they have comes in the same box...why not be able to custom order what you want and then they just put the guts into an enclosure. That way everyone could get what they want and you pay a little more for Visual sound to do it but it doesn't cost them much more to come up with a new enclosure.

Okay... this is a good one. If it was this easy we'd do it. But it's not that simple. But I will give a preliminary announcement here.... VISUAL SOUND IS ABOUT TO LAUNCH A WHOLE NEW LINE OF PEDALS AT WINTER NAMM. THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE IN LATE FEBRUARY OR BEGINNING OF MARCH. THEY WILL COST BETWEEN $4O AND $60 AND SOUND AMAZING. ALL "NEW" PEDALS... AND BY THE WAY, THEY LOOK NOTHING LIKE THE V2 PEDALS.

@VisualSoundUSA Yeah and they are called GarageTone

[44eelz]

@bikerpastor71 i agree that would be cool! they would make more doh, ppl would think of unique stuff i bet

[ihavenoname93]

i wish this was on the OD on my jekyll and hyde. i much prefer this to the route 808

[kelvynyeang]

Dear visual sound, please run a poll. i think many of us need a twin pedal version of this with the compressor or the 808. Also can we have the hyde side first before the jekyll? or can you mod it so that it runs in that order.

[guitarman3001]

Need a twin pedal version of this!!! Open road + the OD from a double trouble! Make it happen!!!!

[m0joGriffin]

Great pedal!!

You really should make sound demo's high quality though .. (i mean the youtube vid) :-)

[highsociey]

is this a ts9 clone and the route is a ts808 clone????????????

[VisualSoundUSA]

Neither... it's it's own unique thing.

Love this pedal, I just bought it. Also, does anyone know what song is being played at the 51 second mark?

[oolivv]

an open roas twin pedal version soon ?

[m0joGriffin]

My first thought: Open Road + Route 808 !!!

That would be great, 2 completely different overdrives in one box :D

[musicwack]

Dude I was thinking the same thing!!

[joshie4330]

Every pedal from VS is great.

[joebot1]

Wow, another winner!.

[hexagontaginal]

Sounds good!
