Get Bone Crushing Sound With The Darkglass AOM Alpha Omicron Bass Preamp Overdrive Pedal

With the double distortion engine (Alpha and Omega), the Alpha·Omicron delivers unparalleled versatility, harmonic rich and bone-crushing sound. Designed for bassists in need of a preamplifier to be distinctively heard in any musical context.

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.

MOD

Selects or mixes between the two distinct distortion circuits: Alpha is punchy, tight with a lot of definition, whereas Omega is simply brutal and raw.

BITE SWITCH

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

GROWL SWITCH

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

DIMENSIONS

11.3x7.5 cm (4.45x2.95 in)

IMPORTANT NOTE

The Alpha Omicron has a current draw of 20mA. Only use a regulated 9V DC adapter with a center-negative plug. Due to ecological reasons it does not accept batteries. Unregulated power supplies and/or higher voltages may result in suboptimal noise performance and even damage your unit, voiding the warranty.
