THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING

THE EBS OCTABASS - STUDIO EDITION PEDAL!

The EBS OctaBass analog octave divider creates a single note one

octave below the pitch of the played note, adding a new dimension

to your sound. The incredibly fast tracking allows rapid playing techni-

ques to be accurately reproduced. The pedal also recognizes two or

three-note chords with the OctaBass triggering on only the lowest

note. With the mode selector switch you choose the correct setting for

different instruments, from guitar to piccolo to 6-stringed basses.

We hope you’ll enjoy using your EBS OctaBass pedal.

THE CONTROLS

NORMAL Controls the mix volume for

the original ”bypassed” sound, from

0% (off) to 100% (max).

OCTAVE Sets the amount for the octave

divided signal, from 0% (off) to 100% (max).

HIGH - This position gives the most synthesized

sound character, useful for rapidly changing

tonal character. Performs very well on guitar,

piccolo bass and other instruments.

MID - The classic octave divider by EBS.

Simply the standard to which all others are

compared. For 4,5 and 6 string basses.

LOW - This position adds extra smooth sub-

bass to your sound. This position is suitable

when you wish to add those extra low

harmonics without altering your basic sound

character.

INDICATOR LED Indicates when the pedal is active.

FOOT SWITCH Switches the pedal on or off.

we recommend the use of a DC Power

Supply, such as the EBS AD-9+. The EBS

OctaBass Studio Edition handles 9-12

V DC, and require a 2.1 mm pin center

negative type of connector.

BATTERY This pedal can run on battery (not

included). To place a battery in the pedal

follow these steps.

1) Remove the four screws holding

the bottom plate.

2) Carefully remove the bottom plate.

3) Place a 9V alkaline type; 6LR61 in

the battery holder.

HOW TO SET THE SOUND - USEFUL HINTS

In order to obtain best possible operation from the EBS OctaBass,

check the hints below on how to improve and find your own personal

sound.

1) If you are using more than one pedal, make sure that the OctaBass

is one of the first ones plugged in, closest to the instrument.

2) Avoid using the effects loop on amplifier. Many amplifiers

have the low end cut-off which causes poor triggering.

3) If you play an active instrument, you can increase the

triggering capability by adding bass on the instrument and

later lower the bass on the amp.

4) Try to avoid playing open strings. Some instruments could also

have a few number of difficult notes, especially on the first frets.

This is because some instruments have very high content of

overtones which inhibits the triggering of the unit. Try playing these

notes on other positions on the fingerboard if nothing else helps.

5) If you are the happy owner of an EBS MultiComp compressor

pedal, try to put this pedal before the OctaBass. The MultiComp

pedal can fix a poor signal from the instrument and improve

triggering considerably.

SAMPLE SOUND SETTINGS

The following examples below show a few of the many sonic

possibilities of the EBS OctaBass.

OCTABASS CLASSIC

This is the classical OctaBass sound setting,

as found on previous EBS products.

Use high setting for Normal and moderate

on Octave for best personal result.

SUB-BASS OCTAVE

This is a very useful setting for spicing up the

low-ends of your sound. The range switch

setting makes it possible to add the most

rumbling bass sounds ever created.

Use a fairly high setting for Octave and

balance your sound with Normal.

SYNTH-TYPE BASS

The most synthesized sounds are all made

possible in the High position of the range

switch. Useful for solo playing, fill-ins as

well useful for other instrument than bass or

guitar. (Even more synth-like in combination

with an EBS BassIQ set to Down mode).
