Bias control
Adjusts gain and body to vary the preamp character.

Independent shopping perspective
Epoch Bias puts a pared-down Maestro EP-3 Echoplex-style preamp circuit into a compact pedal. The Bias control adjusts gain and body while retaining the fundamental sound with only a small amount of drive. Its Filter control handles the high end: turn it clockwise for a darker, rolled-off top end, or counter-clockwise for more shimmer. Together, the controls let you tune the pedal's preamp character around your existing guitar-and-amp setup.
