Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The MO-2 Multi Overtone uses MDP and your guitar’s harmonic characteristics to build new voices around the dry sound. Three modes give you different tone-shaping directions, while BALANCE, TONE, DETUNE, and MODE controls let you set the blend and effect character. It can add multi-string-style resonance, flute-like transparency, or organ- and synth-like textures described for the effect, with DETUNE opening up modulation treatments.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Adding overtone-based resonance and thicker textures to an existing guitar sound.
  • Exploring the pedal’s three modes and DETUNE-driven modulation from compact controls.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players who only want an unaltered guitar sound; the MO-2 is designed to create additional voices and resonance.
  • Users who need an included PSA-series AC adaptor; it is sold separately.
