Amateur guitar player at a loss

Do you guys know of other pedals or whatever that do the range thing? I know there is a Behringer model that does the same but it`s discontinued.

There are other, more natural octaves - like "the drop" from digitech or the actual "whammy" pedal can be set to just drop an octave.
There is an EHX one on the market now too and others... but I can't find them with a quick search - but start with the drop and/or whammy.
Again, if it's being separately routed you an eq out higher frequencies BEFORE the octave so they don't come out the other side.

Ok...so, if I do isolate the two strings, then my options broaden. How about the Zoom MS60b? Could it do the EQ, octave down, amp sim and cabinet, in effect, emulating (as imperfect as a simulation is) a bassier sound?

Re: the MS-60b, yes it can handle the EQ, Octave and Amp/Cabinet sim all at once however you decide to send the signal to it.

I don't think a bass oriented mutli-effect is the best way to go because the octaves in them will tend to be of the synth-y OC variety. But some of the guitar oriented ones do include "detune" or natural octave options. Even better - many digital multi-effects actually let you select a crossover point for the effect so you may be able to completely eliminate freqs above a certain point. And most will have sims of at least one or two bass oriented amps like a silverface/blackface bassman, or Marshall superbass.

Thanks Dano...any specific mfx you have in mind I should look into?
