All user reviews for the Ashdown Sub-Octave Plus

Pedal octave, input, output, equipped with an overdrive section and a VU meter input. The bare minimum.

UTILIZATION

The use of this pedal is very simple. One branch, it checks the input level through the VU meter (which is a little gadget, but gives a most sympathetic to this pedal) and the level is adjusted using the input gain knob. The second knob adjusts the level of the note an octave lower, then the overdrive section adjusts the level of saturated note an octave and the depth of saturation. Then you set the output level with the last pot. Operation is very simple.

OVERALL OPINION

The price is high, but for someone like me who often uses this, I recommend it highly. The Electro-Harmonix is ​​too rough for my taste and the Boss that works perfectly clear lack of character ...
