This is the most natural (non robot) sounding octave pedal I've ever used. My bass has an active EQ, and I find it tracks my low B just fine (although I'm not sure why you'd need it to). I love the ... read more [+]growl affect, kinda wish I could select to do that without the octave sometimes. I mainly use this to add low end punch to my popping on the upper registers of the fretboard. Throw an envelope filter in front of it and whoa-buddy! An easy access battery door would have made this thing a 5 star item. close [-]

Probably the best bass octave pedal out there. Superb tonal flexibilities, fast tracking and built like a tank. Highly recommended!

Great low profile design, cool new looks and it is truly built like a tank. My favorite feature on this pedal is the mid switch, very useful to help cut through any mix. My only complaint is the 9volt... read more [+] plug is located just below the input, kind of annoying but it's a very minor. Really fast tracking, a good variety of tones and a pretty low cost made this pedal a permanent part of my live rig. close [-]
