DARKGLASS ELECTRONICS Alpha ∙ Omega 900 Centurion Limited Edition
900 watt bass amplifier with graphic EQ, Alpha ∙ Omega distortion and extensive connections, including foot switch
The
Darkglass Electronics Alpha ∙ Omega 900 Centurion Limited Edition
comes with a beautiful
artwork
by Ignacio Bazán and combines the sound variety of the most popular Darkglass distortion pedal with a 900 Watt power amp to the ideal bass amplifier for the Hard'n'Heavy fraction. Based on a completely
analogue circuit
, this bass amp features a clean section with a
graphic 6-band equalizer
, preceded by the
Alpha Omega engine
with
two distinctive drive voicings
. Additionally there is an
integrated one-knob compressor
. With
900 watts
, the output stage designed in modern
Class D
technology furthermore promises maximum volume reserves for use on stage or in the rehearsal room. With an extensive range of
connection peripherals
, including
balanced pre- and post-DI outputs
and a
headphone jack
as well as
MIDI
, the Darkglass Alpha Omega 900 is ideally equipped for the recording studio.
The Darkglass Alpha Omega 900 bass amplifier comes with integrated Alpha Omega distortion and graphic 6-band EQ for particularly versatile bass sounds.
Clean section with 6-band equalizer
The
completely analogue preamp
of the Darkglass Alpha ∙ Omega 900 features a
clean section
, whose extremely transparent sound guarantees an unaltered output of the instrument used and the playing technique. The
graphic 6-band equalizer
allows for extremely precise sound adjustment, whereas the
integrated compressor
with straightforward
one-knob control
guarantees a smooth and rich sound experience.
Alpha ∙ Omega engine for variable distortion
The sonic heart of the Darkglass Alpha ∙ Omega is undoubtedly the eponymous
Alpha-Omega engine
, which is a direct descendant of the distortion pedal co-developed by
Jon Stockman
(Karnivool) and promises variable distortion sounds. The
Mod control
fades between the
Alpha circuit
, which provides a tight, powerful drive, and the
Omega circuit
, which provides unbridled, brutal distortion with maximum gain. In addition, the
Growl switch
saturates the bass foundation on demand, whereas the
Bite switch
sets the high mid-range at 2.8 kHz for increased definition and assertiveness. The
Blend control
can be used to mix in the dry bass signal continuously to maintain pressure and thrust in the low end.
900 Watt Class D power amplifier
For maximum volume reserves and an extremely powerful sound image that pushes every note down into the pit of your stomach, the Darkglass Alpha ∙ Omega 900 is equipped with a modern
Class D power amplifier
that delivers a full
900 watts
to the bass speakers despite its transport-friendly format. These can be safely connected to the head via
two combined Speakon/jack combination sockets
, and thanks to the
2-Ohm mode
, combinations of two 4-Ohm cabinets are possible as well.
DI-Out and headphone-out connections with speaker simulation
Furthermore the Darkglass Alpha ∙ Omega 900 features
balanced pre-DI and post-DI outputs
for direct pickup of the dry input signal and the processed bass sound, whereas the
headphone jack
allows for silent practising. The
speaker simulations
for both promises a particularly natural sound experience thanks to the use of
Impulse Responses (IRs)
. These speaker simulations can be easily exchanged via the
USB connection
and the
free Darkglass
Suite
.
The back of the Darkglass ∙ Alpha Omega 900 not only houses the speaker connections, but pre- and post-DI-outs as well as headphone jack, FX loop and foot switch and MIDI jacks.
Foot switch connection and MIDI
Last but not least, the extensive functions of the Darkglass Alpha ∙ Omega 900 can be controlled remotely via
MIDI
or
foot switch
. The
Darkglass Intelligent Footswitch
, which is already included in the scope of delivery, allows the
distortion
and
mute
function to be controlled with a
single switch
.
