I'll concur with Richard here, and I use both.  I have an OC-2 in my 
effects chain and it produces a very synth-y sound.  I also use the 
pitch shifting capability of my Alesis Midiverb from time to time.  

As Richard points out, the OC-2 is for single note input, and will 
respond unpredictably to polyphonic input.  Digital units are, in 
general, polyphonic, and more true in reproducing the source tone and 
timber -- sounding like a harmonica -- than the analog units.  

Has anyone tried the new Boss OC-3, which is polyphonic?
