Mine is a Black Label, so always with two second gnration potentiomtres and a selector swith lo / mid / high.

It is powered by either 9V battery (remove 4 screws to put it), but it can also be powered externally, I had a bit of snoring by trying a transformer with two bullets, but with a power supply dcoupage it sounds perfectly clean

UTILIZATION

Unlike other AviX, I find my sound fast enough, it is only shuffled the natural sound of bass with an octave, so it's pretty simple.

SOUND QUALITY

It's a good Octaver, and if we do not seek the sound of a Octaver, we're obviously not happy with his purchase. In addition it is an effect that is that difficult to place in music today ...

For my part, I like his sound less technical than the Boss, for example.

The particularity of OctaBass is that its tracking is exceptional for this type of format pedals, go to the hill POG Electro Harmonix HOG or for better, but this is no longer the m me money. It outperforms most other kinds Octaver Boss / MXR etc.. eyes closed.

And it's true bypass! It does not affect the sound of the bass when not engaged

OVERALL OPINION

I shall have made 8 / 10 gnrale medium, but as the notes here are low and extrment mlangent the old and the new MODEL, I just to boost up the whole.

I had the opportunity to try a lot and frankly, it is the little OctaBass. When I think of the ridicule of my old ocatve GT6B the OctaBass gnial really is!

Now if you do not need a Octaver, do not buy it and that's it!
