i checked out the octamizer yesterday over at aguilar....
it is pretty cool.
i'm going to bring my pedal board over there at some point and see how it works with other pedals.
i was using some nordy bass that felt compressed, so i couldn't tell if the pedal had no punch, or if the bass had no punch....
will report back.
that is all.

I think Bass Club Chicago has a few right now.
They currently have 3 left out of 6 that they received.

There are Boss gems and duds, just like anything else. Don't hate.

The back of the pedal has about a 1/4" lip on both sides, making pedalboard mounting annoying, at best. ***?
