OD for Orange RV50 Clean Channel

i tried a lot of pedals with the clean channel of this amp.
it seems that it doesn't like od's much...
it takes only TS style od's or the BOR well.
other OD's like the OCD/COT/Tube Factor sounds real bad...
any advice?

Try a Cream Tone Pedal by G2D, you will like it, trust me.

I agree with Aslan - clean boost type pedals work pretty well on the clean channel. In my case, I've had excellent results with the Paul Cochrane "Timmy" (or it's big brother, "Tim") pedal.

I also like my Okko Diablo quite a bit on the clean channel. Really, on either channel...but for different kinds of sounds. I don't think most pedals are useful on the dirty channel unless you turn the gain down a ways and get most of the dirt from your pedal. But the Diablo does work well that way. On the clean channel, I back down the gain on the Diablo a bit and it sounds really good.

I like your youtube stuff. That strat is soooo sweet. The Pink Floyd stuff you played has caused the following:

I am officially back on my Pink Floyd kick

I bought a G&L Comanche (because I can't afford a really nice strat right now)

I am looking at TC Electronic Vintage Delays

yeah i second the tim. i had an eternity od pedal that sounded killer but it was so damn close to the sounds i could get from my rv's dirt channel i sold it.

Since someone here is bound to recommend it, I'll do it. Try the Klon, it is apparently one of the best drive pedals ever made. Check out the Zen drive aswell.

PS: I love your playing. And that strat sounds unreal.
