Unser Dual Band Compressor wurde entwickelt, um einen hochentwickelten, großartig klingenden Kompressor in einem einfachen Pedalformat zu liefern und ist ein unverzichtbares Werkzeug für jeden modernen Bassisten.
 
Während Standard-Kompression großartig klingen kann, hebt die Dual Band Compression die Kontrolle auf ein ganz neues Niveau. Durch die Aufteilung des Signals in hohe und tiefe Frequenzbänder können wir die Kompression unabhängig voneinander anwenden - schnelles Attack und Decay für die hohen Frequenzen und langsames Attack und Decay für die tiefen Bässe. Auf diese Weise können Sie einen kraftvollen, druckvollen Sound genau auf Ihre Bedürfnisse abstimmen - indem Sie den Sustain erhöhen, die Dynamik glätten, die Definition verbessern oder sogar die Lautstärke erhöhen.

Designed to deliver a sophisticated, great-sounding compressor in a simple pedal format, our Dual Band Compressor is a must have tool for any modern bass player's rig.
 
While standard compression can sound great, Dual Band Compression takes control to a whole new level. Splitting the signal into high and low frequency bands lets us apply compression independently to each – fast attack and decay for the high frequency and slow attack and decay for the deep bass. This approach let's you fine tune a powerful, punchy sound to your exact requirements – increasing sustain, smoothing out dynamics, adding definition or even boosting volume.

Dual Band Compressor

The OriginAL beautifully shapes the bass player’s clean signal whilst offering a foot-switchable valve powered overdrive in a single compact unit. Crystal clear cleans and powerful overdriven growl, The OriginAL encompasses it all.

Setting the Level
The -3db Pad switch is used in conjunction with the input level control to suit the instrument in use, Low output basses will not require the use of the Pad but Higher Output basses may overload the pedal and require use of the Pad. Overloading the Input will simply create unwanted distortion and sound unpleasant, with experimentation the correct settings will be found for the Instruments you have.

Real Valve Overdrive
The Valve overdrive circuit fitted into the Original pre amplifier duplicates the kind of overdrive you would get from Valve Amplifier and works in exactly the same way as follows,The DRIVE GAIN controls the magnification of the signal from the instrument, at higher settings the Valve will be overdriven clipping and compressing the sound from the instrument, Higher harmonics and higher frequencies will be accentuated whilst the lower frequencies will be compressed. Just as in a valve amplifier this will be accompanied by a drastic increase in volume dependant entirely on the setting of the gain control.

To enable you to match the Overdriven signal level to the clean level a Drive level control is also provided. In this way it is therefore possible to change from a crystal clean sound to an overdriven sound of similar level. The Input Level control also has some bearing on this as it sets the starting point from which the overdrive circuit works so some experimentation with this in conjunction with Drive Gain and Drive Level will be required to get exactly the results you are looking for.

The OVERDRIVE is foot switchable and the pedal lights up blue when the overdrive is engaged. When using the footswitch it is advisable and desirable to avoid large increases in volume as sudden level changes may produce switching noise further down the line.

Original Valve Pre-DI Pedal

Discover 'The Pedal of Doom,' a meticulously crafted bass distortion pedal born from 18 months of passionate internal discussions and inspired by the legendary Geezer Butler. At its core, this pedal revolves around the power of EQ control. With an active 5-band EQ and the ability to shape your drive's pre-EQ, you have the freedom to sculpt two distinct tones, each with its individual character and harmonics.
 
Geezer Butler's influence is palpable in every detail, from the groove of 'Hand of Doom' to the transformative qualities of his music. 'The Pedal of Doom' allows you to capture that spirit, giving you the control to punch in those rich harmonics precisely when you need them. This pedal is your key to summoning the sound of doom at a moment's notice.

Geezer Butler Pedal of Doom

For those who opt for a pick over fingers or those who dig in like the greats the Pro-Drive gives you control over the amount of gain and the tone of your drive. From a dull rumbling thunder to a screaming banshee the Tone control works as expected giving you control over the dynamic range of the instrument. When used with the output control you are able to balance the output of the pedal vs your clean instrument sound for the perfect step drive tone.
