New Darkglass Electronics Alpha Omega Ultra Bass Effects Pedal

The Alpha·Omega Ultra is the most versatile bass preamplifier we've designed: with its two distinct distortion circuits (Alpha and Omega), extremely high dynamic range, six-band active graphic EQ, dedicated headphone output and balanced direct output with switchable digital impulse-response cabinet emulation, it makes for an incredibly complete tool for the modern bass player.

Features

Blend — Mixes the clean and processed signals. The clean signal remains at unity gain while the volume of the overdriven signal is set by the Level knob, allowing for fine mix tuning.

Level — Sets the volume of the overdriven signal.

Drive — Sets the amount of gain in the overdriven signal.

Bite — Boosts High Mids (2.8kHz) for additional presence and definition.

Growl — Shelving Bass Boost for a fatter tone and increased low end saturation.

Mod — Selects or mixes between the two distinct distortion circuits: Alpha is punchy and tight with a lot of definition, whereas Omega is simply brutal and raw. On the Darkglass Suite you can assign footswitch control of the Mod to toggle between Alpha and Omega.

Master — Adjusts the overall volume of the unit and serves as a DI and headphone volume control. Volume is not affected by this control when the pedal is on bypass.

EQ — Bass: Low shelf ±12dB @ 80 Hz. Mid bands: ±10dB @ 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1.5 kHz, 3 kHz. Treble: High shelf ±12dB @ 5 kHz.

Ground lift — Disconnects the signal ground on the Direct Output to break any ground loops.

Cab Sim — Toggle the cabinet simulation on/off on the Direct Output.

Headphones — Internal stereo headphone amplifier capable of driving a minimum load of 16 ohms from the 3.5mm stereo jack.

USB — A Micro USB B connector lets you connect the pedal to PC/Mac to load cabinet simulation impulse responses and control other settings.

Dimensions: 125x96x57 mm (4.92x3.77x2.24 in)
