Strong match

Who this is for

  • Bassists who want to blend octave-down and distortion sounds
  • Players using separate amp or mix channels for the octave-down signal
  • Pedalboard users who want flexible external-effects-loop placement

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players who do not need octave-down or distortion effects
  • Setups that do not need routing, loop-placement, or separate sub-output options
