Is it a clone or ? Anyone know?

Thanks!

i don't think so.  i know Lorren and he's a pretty original kind of guy.

Hi Zack,

Do you (or anyone else for that matter) actually know anything of the circuitry, ICs used, or such?

I've never hear one, but Donner Rusk thinks it's pretty cool, and he has a good ear. 

Of course he has also occasionally said nice things about some circuits that aren't so special IMHO and are pretty much clones of old standards. Donner doesn't always note\recognize that fact.

Anyone seen\played with\got a "Oxygen"?

HEY,  I've played through one several times.  Great compressor/boost/dirty boost.  Can get noisey but it's a nice white noise and only if you turn up the dirt.  My friend who owns it uses it mostly as a leave it on all the time boost/compressor.  As a compressor it can really squash and sustain with the best of them.  Never tried a blackbox pedal that didn't scream anything but quality.

Hi Vacuumdust,

Thanks for reply.  I've read several similar comments at H-C and other places.

Any chance he'll let you peek inside and see what chips are in it, take a pic, or something?
