Darkglass-Electronics Alpha Omega

Besides
being an amazing composer, producer and bassist, Jon Stockman is amazing at
crafting some of the most devastating bass tones in the world. We got together
in our then Helsinki headquarters 18 months ago and after endless tweaking and
tens of prototypes we are finally ready to announce our first co-designed
creation: Alpha · Omega.

This creation differs greatly from our previous preamplifiers and overdrives:
it is fully operational amplifier based and has two distinct distortion
circuits (Alpha and Omega) which can be selected or blended using our Mod knob.
This unusual control, in conjunction with the toggle switches and 3 active band
equilizer makes Alpha · Omega the most flexible among our designs.

Blend
Mixes the clean and
processed signals. The clean signal remains at unity gain while the volume of
the overdriven signal is set by the Level knob, allowing for fine mix tuning.

Level
Sets the volume of
the overdriven signal.

Drive
Sets the amount of
gain in the overdriven signal.

Bite
Boosts High Mids
(2.8kHz) for additional presence and definition.

Growl
Shelving Bass Boost
for a fatter tone and increased low end saturation.

Mod
Selects or mixes
between the two distinct distortion circuits: Alpha is punchy, tight with a lot
of definition, whereas Omega is simply brutal and raw.

Bass
+-12dB @ 80Hz

Mid
+-12dB @ 500Hz

Treble
+-12dB @ 5kHz

Parallel
Output
Hardwired copy of
your input signal, useful for getting a clean signal in recording and live
situations

Direct
Output
A balanced version
of the ¼” output, useful for running into PA’s or studio mixing consoles.
