About this deal

The size of this pedal, however, can be troublesome for some people. If you will be using this pedal in a pedalboard, we should warn you about something before you do it in your Mooer Hustle Drive Pedal review. If you are a pedal fan like myself, you will know by now what there are 4 universal full-range pedal makers - i.e. have a pedal for every occasion, we are of course talking of Boss, Electro-Harmonix, MXR and TC Electronic. And while the latter two have a number of mini pedals out, those are very far from being representative of all the pedals available in regular or medium-sized enclosures. In fact the only company that really has a mini pedal for every purpose is Mooer with its Micro Series.

LARGE - Dr. Scientist Heisenberg Molecular Overdrive, Elektron Analog Drive, Emerson Custom Pomeray Dual Overdrive, Empress Multidrive, Positive Grid Bias Distortion, Seymour Duncan Palladium Gain Stage, Strymon Riverside I have long intended getting a Fulltone Plimsoul for temporary swap-out purposes, otherwise I have no plans to add anything in the OCD area - I had not really intended to so with the Odyssey - it obviously was not on anyone’s radar, but it just turned out to be a really good match, and a great versatile and therefore permanent fixture. This pedal at hand has two operating modes: HP and LP, both of which have a wide variety of highly accessible tones. You can switch between those with a switch easily. Overall, it is really easy to use Mooer Hustle Drive and comes with lots of features jammed in a small box. Conclusion: Mooer Hustle Drive Pedal [2023 Review] Of all the pedals listed, the Plimsoul is sort of the odd one out - I had always intended to get that pedal as a sometime occasional swap-out for the OCD, but it is more of a medium to heavy gain than the light to medium of the OCD - I find the OCD slightly crunchier than the relatively smoother Plimsoul although in my area of interest they do have some degree of overlap. Interestingly, for the first few years of manufacture, the germanium diode was incorrectly oriented, meaning the pedal had a sound all of its own. This was later corrected, returning it closer to the sound of the original. Classic tones

All of this needs to be taken with a certain pinch of salt, as readers / listeners / players will have likely different ’ears’, different preferences and thus come to quite diverse conclusions. I have tried to reference most of the best known overdrive and distortion pedal types / core sounds, but there will be various degrees of overlap, as well as some pedals which don’t sit entirely comfortably within select categories. The below list goes from the lightest touch of boost-like gain to extreme distortion, from unique, singular sounding pedals to highly versatile distortion workstations as such. The Chinese-made mini pedals are usually most appealing because of their low cost, then compact size, and usually thirdly a close-ish approximation of tone. In this instance, the Mooer Blues Mood hits the triple threat with a really fantastic replication of a Keeley-modified Boss Blues Driver. So a clever twist on the original in a more compact form factor and with two-way toggle voice selector. The AnalogMan King of Tone is capable of similar tones and much more, its footprint and cost though is more than 10 times that of the diminutive Mooer, which is my pedal of choice here.

The sound of the Strat is felt not worry. Everything is plugged into a fender hotrod deluxe with a little reverb and GT5 boss in the loop for modulation effects. Since this pedal is an extra small one, you might have a hard time placing it on your pedal board as your other pedals might need frequent adjustment. The other point is, if you will be adjusting the settings on the knobs frequently, that will mean that you are going to need to come close to the pedal every time. REGULAR - Dr. Scientist BitQuest, Dr. Scientist Frazz Dazzler, Dunlop Fuzz Face Mini Hendrix, EarthQuaker Devices Fuzz Master General, Fulltone 70-BC Fuzz, Keeley Electronics Psi Fuzz, Menatone The PoPo Fuzz, Old Blood Noise Endeavors Haunt Fuzz, SolidGoldFX If 6 Was 9 BC183CC SMALL - Aroma Tomsline Dumbler, HoTone Skyline Series Grass, Mooer Rumble Drive, One Control Golden Acorn OverDrive Special, Rowin Dumbler, Tone City Sweet CreamSMALL - Movall Minotaur, Often FX Meta Driver, One Control Cranberry OverDrive, Tone City Bad Horse, Wampler Tumnus There have been seven distinct versions of the OCD, identifiable by the PCBs and layout on the inside, alongside visual cues like the size of the logo on the front panel. The tone knob does fine with adjusting the clarity of the notes. It can get muddy if the drive is up, and the tone is down?but hey, some people love to swim in those muddy waters. ;) Many really love its rich and complex distortion character - including myself, while others prefer a slightly smoother type of distortion - which is why it's handy that there are so many clones and mods around - you can find your preferred derivation of the core flavour that best suits your preferences.

SMALL - ENO Trouble Overdrive, Joyo Husky Drive, LovePedal Bonetender, Mooer Hustle Drive, One Control Lingonberry OverDrive LARGE - Amptweaker PressuRizer Compressor & Boost, ARC Effects Gamut, Bigfoot Engineering Trouble Booster, Crazy Tube Circuits Vyagra Boost, Diamond Boost EQ, Emma Electronic OnoMATOpoeia clean boost, Empress Effects Buffer+ Stereo, Orange Two Stroke Boost EQ , Strymon OB1 Clean Boost Compressor, ThorpyFX The Peacekeeper, T Jauernig Electronics Luxury Drive - Clean Boost, Way Huge Angry Troll Linear Boost, Zvex Super Hard-On For a mini version of the Brown Sound the One Control Anodized Brown Distortion is kind of in the ballpark, but does not really have the necessary bass response. A wonderfully texturally complex distortion tone. The OCD has amazing distortion harmonics, but manages to stay just on the right side of musical and controllable. It’s a very distinctive tone that is very obviously analogue sounding. Digital pedals have a hard time replicating this pedal exactly as they are intrinsically prone to smoothing and clarifying output.If you have space on your board you may as well go for one of the many varieties of ProCo Rat now available, and if you are adventurous, you can try out the new Chase Bliss Brothers Analog Gainstage which does some very interesting things with fuzz distortion. Very much part of the sound we now automatically associate with Jimi Hendrix - originally the Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face, now faithfully reproduced by Dunlop in all its various guises. The other heavy hitter fuzz pedals are the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff (-Pi) and all-rounder fuzz workstation - the Zvex Fuzz Factory 7.

The tone control is essentially a treble roll-off. Although a fair bit of treble is filtered at the main amplification stage, the tone control is used to remove treble above a fixed frequency right before the output of the pedal. HP/LP switch Plus: good surprise but views were good and for the price I was not taking a big risk. Quality very correct manufacturing of made in china. Versatility of the pedal. It goes from blues british sound just by mounting the volume on the guitar. 2 modes (hp and lp) are effective and offer a real workable sound. The LP sends you live in England, the LP will pull acute tearing eardrums providing more subtlety. For my part I stayed in this mode there.LARGE - Dr J Effects Green Crystal, EarthQuaker Devices Palisades, Ibanez Tube Screamer TS808DX, Way Huge Green Rhino Pedals can be upgraded via modding - swapping out cheaper components for higher quality ones. This can often yield amazing results, but often the smaller form factor has inherent restrictions in what components can be used, laid-out and best optimised. The effect is very good. Pedal received an hour ago from Singapore, I've played telephone, clapton, oasis and a flanger kashmir of my little Led Zeppelin. So rather versatile pedal I think. In all cases you need to be patient and need to experiment when attempting to dial in the best possible tone. All pedals don’t necessarily suit all amps, some are more susceptible to deviation. A case in point is the Diezel VH4 pedal which many loath with a passion, but comes out great for me run directly into the amps (rather than via fx loop). In fact all my overdrive and distortion pedals run into the front of the amps, through Alchemy Audio modded Boss NS-2 Noise Gate and modded Boss GE-7 Equalizer - with Strymon Modulation and FX added at the end of the chain.
