A Co-Creation Centered Around Jon Stockman's Sound

Born from a close collaboration with Jon Stockman (composer, producer, and bassist), the Darkglass Alpha-Omega marks a departure from the brand's more "classic" overdrives. The idea was not to offer just another saturation pedal, but a pedal capable of covering multiple sonic identities within a single enclosure, featuring two distinct distortion circuits. The result: a tool tailored for bassists seeking massive saturation that is controllable and musical, from well-defined modern grit to the most abrasive rage.

Who It's For, Which Styles, and In What Contexts?

The Alpha-Omega targets intermediate to professional bassists looking for a bass distortion that remains clear in dense mixes. It excels in modern rock, metal, prog, djent, stoner, hardcore, but can also be more subtle for alternative rock or more "studio" textures thanks to the clean/saturated blend.

On a pedalboard, it works equally well as a primary drive or as a character preamp placed at the end of the chain to even out the tone. In the studio, its "blend" approach helps preserve the fundamental and punch while adding harmonics and presence, facilitating bass placement without artificially boosting the lows.

Questions frequently asked

Is the Darkglass Alpha Omega suitable for 5-string basses and low tunings?

The Blend control mixes the clean signal with the processed signal to preserve the fundamental and attack. This setup helps maintain clarity at high gain levels, especially on a 5-string bass or in low tunings.

What is the difference between the Alpha and Omega circuits?

The Alpha circuit favors a tight and defined tone, suitable for precise riffs. The Omega circuit produces a rougher texture loaded with harmonics. The Mod pot allows selecting or blending these two circuits.

Can the pedal be connected directly to a mixing console?

A balanced XLR DI output is integrated for sending the signal to a console or interface. The pedal also has a 6.35 mm jack output for the processed signal and a parallel dry output.

What equalization settings are available?

The active EQ affects the lows at 80 Hz, mids at 500 Hz, and highs at 5 kHz, with a ±12 dB range per band. The Bite switch boosts upper mids at 2.8 kHz, while Growl enhances the lows.
