Controls
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. On the Darkglass Suite (see
below) you can assign footswitch control of the Mod to toggle
between Alpha and Omega.
Master:
Whereas the Level knob control the output of the
overdrive section the Master volume adjusts the overall
volume of the unit. Ideal for fine tuning the output on clean
mode. It also serves as a DI and headphone volume control.
Please note that volume is not affected by this control when
the pedal is on bypass.
Bass: Low shelf +-12dB @ 80 Hz
Mid bands:
+-10dB @ 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1.5 kHz, 3 kHz
Treble:
High shelf +-12dB @ 5 kHz
Direct Ouput: Balanced XLR output for connecting the pedal
to a microphone preamp, PA system etc.
Ground lift:
Disconnects the signal ground on the Direct
Output to break any ground loops. Set this switch to either
position that has less noise. The switch does not affect the ¼”
output.
Cab Sim:
Toggle the cabinet simulation on/off on the Direct
Output. This switch completely bypasses all digital circuits
and allows you to get a zero latency signal when needed.
Headphones:
Alpha·Omega Ultra has an internal stereo
headphone amplifier capable of driving a minimum load of 16
ohms from the 3.5mm stereo jack. Use the Master volume
control to adjust the level.
WARNING:
When the pedal is on bypass the master volume
does not affect the headphone volume. In this case the total
volume is adjustable in Darkglass Suite. With sensitive
headphones the bypass volume can be very loud if not
adjusted.
USB:
A Micro USB B connector allows you to connect the
pedal to PC/Mac to load cabinet simulation impulse responses
to the pedal and control various other settings.
