Description

The Aguilar Octamizer DLX octave generator pedal is a next-generation evolution of a modern bass classic, rebuilt from the ground up to deliver improved tracking, clarity, and reliability. Powered by Aguilar’s new in-house DSP platform, the Octamizer DLX preserves the organic low-end character that made the original pedal a staple while expanding its range with octave up capability and new filtering options. Designed for working bassists, it offers a musical, responsive feel that integrates naturally into both traditional and modern rigs.

Advanced DSP With Octave Up, Octave Down, and Synth Mode

At its core, the Octamizer DLX runs proprietary DSP algorithms developed specifically for bass, ensuring accurate tracking and minimal latency. The classic octave down delivers a weighty, natural sub sound, while the newly added octave up provides smooth, organic upper harmonics without harsh artifacts. A new Mode function introduces a retro, synth-inspired filter, allowing players to move between the original Octamizer tone and more stylized octave textures without losing clarity or definition.

Player-Focused Controls for Real-Time Performance

The control layout is built for live use, offering intuitive access to the pedal’s expanded features. A press-and-hold Engage function lets you isolate the sub signal instantly by muting the clean path, making it easy to drop in deep octave effects on demand. Seamless switching between classic and modern filter modes allows quick tonal changes during a performance, keeping your focus on playing rather than adjusting settings.

A Stage-Ready Aguilar Pedal for Creative Bassists

Housed in a rugged enclosure and built with high-quality components, the Octamizer DLX is designed for consistent performance on stage and in the studio. It runs on a standard 9V power supply requiring 500mA, making it compatible with modern pedalboard power systems. For bassists looking to expand their tonal palette with a pedal that offers reliable tracking, musical octave voices, and flexible sound shaping, the Aguilar Octamizer DLX delivers a refined, professional tool that stays true to the original’s iconic character.
