The EBS OctaBass was the first effect unit ever made by EBS. Known for its lightning-quick tracking and naturally fat tone, it offered a single octave drop and a set of simple controls. The Blue Label version adds new features and a streamlined interface — maximum sound, minimum fuss!

Key Features

  • Preserve the low range
  • Suitable for live and studio use
  • High or low optimized fretboard tracking-range
  • Controls for Normal and Octave volume
  • Seamless Tone control for octave
  • Can be powered with 9-18V DC

Improved Tracking

A range switch lets you change the pedal’s tracking focus from lower in your bass range to higher. This ensures ultra-precise tracking, unprecedented for an all-analogue pedal at this price-point.

Enhanced Tone Control

By adding a seamless tone control you can go from a present, focused octave sound that cuts through the mix all the way to a sub-bass backdrop of lows that discreetly supports the note you play. The tone control enhances the palette of sounds and also makes it easier to achieve a synthesized bass sound.

EBS

In the current JustPedals catalogue, EBS is represented by Preamp & DI Pedals, Octave Pedals and Wah & Filter Pedals. Current listings include Micro, Valve Drive and Stanley Clarke Acoustic Preamp. That makes the range relevant to players looking for modelling, direct rigs and multi-effects, plus acoustic instrument signal shaping. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Octave Pedals

Octave pedals generate one or more notes above or below the input, either by analogue tracking, digital processing or a blend of both. Monophonic circuits often track best with clean, single-note playing; polyphonic designs can handle chords more reliably but may introduce a different feel or latency. Controls such as octave-up, octave-down, dry level, filter and tracking range shape the result. Check the intended instrument, register, input impedance and whether the pedal remains stable before or after other gain effects.

Analogue

Analogue products use continuous audio circuitry for some or all of the signal path, so clipping, filtering or modulation arises from physical components rather than sampled algorithms. The label does not guarantee a particular tone; component choice, headroom, bias, noise and the surrounding gain stages still matter. Check whether the switching, presets, control section or cabinet stage is digital when the exact signal path is important.

Bass

Bass products are designed or voiced to retain low-frequency information and usable headroom with bass guitar or other low-register sources. Controls may centre on clean blend, low-end EQ, compression, crossover points or drive character. A guitar pedal can sometimes work well on bass, but it may remove the fundamental or compress the transient. Check the frequency response, input impedance, output level and dry-signal path with the intended tuning and amplifier.
