Specifications and Features

• Monophonic Analog Circuitry: It generates pure analog sub-octave tones, meaning it performs best when playing single-note lines rather than full chords.
• Three-Knob Control Interface:
• Direct: Controls the volume level of your unaffected dry input signal.
• Oct-1: Controls the volume of the signal pitched exactly one octave down.
• Oct-2: Controls the volume of the signal pitched exactly two octaves down.
• Thick Synth-Like Tone: The pedal generates deep, warm, and slightly fuzzy square-wave textures. Musicians frequently use it to emulate bass guitars or beef up riffs when paired with a heavy distortion or fuzz pedal.
• Power Requirements: Operates on a standard 9V battery or a typical 9V DC center-negative power adapter
