Bigfoot Octo Puss

£109.99
A passive (no power required) high performance octave-up effect.
 
What is it?
A mini passive octave-up guitar effects pedal with high performance modern components.
 
How does it sound?
Our octave up generator utilises germanium diodes for authentic vintage tones. We then combine them with a premium studio quality audio transformer to provide far better frequency response and tracking than any other analogue octave pedal on the market.
 
Unique features
The Octo Puss doesn't require a power supply or battery as the circuit is completely passive, and the mini footprint is ideal for small pedalboards. In addition, it can uniquely track chords far more accurately than other octave-up effects pedals.
 
Applications
This is perfect tool for adding the classic octave-up effect to your palette, providing far greater tonal versatility than a vintage fuzz-octave pedal.
 
Controls
-On/off footswitch (bottom middle) with true bypass wiring.
 
Connections
-Mono 1/4" input and output jack sockets (available with side-mounted or top-mounted).
-Industry standard 2.1mm centre negative power supply socket (only with LED option).
 
Power requirements
No power required.
 
Signal chain placement
It must be connected after any buffered effects unit in order to operate. Combine it with other effects or use it clean.
 
Construction
All analogue, hand built in England UK.
 
Specification
-Length 112mm (4.41").
-Width 60mm (2.36").
-Height 27mm (1.06").

What is it?

How does it sound?
