Darkglass Kaamos Distortion/Octaver – a powerful dual-function pedal combining crushing distortion with accurate octave tracking, crafted in collaboration with legendary bassist and producer Amos Heller. Designed to meet the demands of modern bassists, Kaamos merges two essential effects in a compact format, providing versatile tone shaping and advanced routing for both studio and live setups.
Both the distortion and octaver sections feature independent, detailed controls, including Blend, Tone, Drive, Drive Mod, Drive Level, Clean Level, Octave Filter, and Octave Level. You can run them in parallel or series, adjust internal routing with dedicated switches, and insert external effects via the built-in FX loop. The pedal also includes an XLR DI output for direct connection to mixers or interfaces, and a dedicated sub-octave output — ideal for sending low-end signals to a second amp or subwoofer.
Whether you're sculpting deep, growling textures or adding a defined top end, Darkglass Kaamos delivers punchy response, tight tracking, and brutal sonic power. Housed in a rugged metal enclosure, it’s a professional-grade tool ready to dominate any mix or pedalboard setup.
