BEEEEEEP

bought it for the same reason that most people will be buying it for, that reason being it being a cheap alpha omega pedal for a good price but there's an issue with this unit where the distortion circuit has a loud beep whenever the distortion is engaged. tried different power supplies, different sockets, tried the instrument out and the xlr out and both of those have the same issue, tried running the instrument into a di box and it still happens. it's a good pedal and very useful the its just an eq di pedal for me at this point sadly.

Great unit, crushing around, one minor complaint
Enzi_667 08.11.2025
This thing sounds massive. An excellent clone of the DG alpha-omega (minus one or two features, bit I'm not bothered by it not having them, to be honest).
It has no bad setting, almost everything os usable on one context or another. I was surprised by the fuzz tone, I actually liked it a bit more than the DG/Omega tone, which is also a bery nice tone that's not to be ignored.

My only nit-pick is not being able to engage the drive channel without having the clean/preamp one also on. Having them separate could be useful when you have a good active bass with good EQ settings on it.
The unit itself is sturdy and solid, pots feel nice, oily, and of good quality.

If you're a touring musician, DK definitely deserve the extra cash for inventing the original, the DG tone, good customer care, and for the solidity. I know I'd go that route if it fit my needs and budget. But for bedroom musician who's a fan but cannot afford the real thing, this one is a damn good pick.

Bonus: combine the clean/preamp channel or this, with the drive channel of a microtube X (like i did), or with another drive pedal. The tone is a metal players dream.

Good for its price

The cab sim works only through the XLR output, not the headphone jack. There's a typo on the Ground Lift button. Overall, the device is solid for its price.

Amazing value!
KoosBass 19.10.2024
This pedal is an extremely useful and essential tool in creating a quality distorted tone. sounds 99.9999% the same as the Darkglass Alpha Omega Ultra, but for a small fraction of the price. looks great on my board and blends very well. the seperate volume controls for overall and distorted tone come in handy often.

Not as good as people say
Jebra93 12.09.2025
I bought this after reading many reviews where people claimed it was a 'darkglass for a fraction of the price'. However, I can safely say this does not compare to the quality (build and sound) of darkglass products. It's great for the price, but it just doesn't quite have the sound quality I was looking for.
