Can you recommend an Octave Up pedal?

well i have been looking for the octaver for my board for a couple of years. I used to use the markbass supersynth octave part (which worked reasonably well but was a cumbersome solution as i did not use the synth part), now im using a old BOSS OC2 which is kinda ok, but tracking is glitchy and i lack the octave up. I was looking at getting a POG (perhaps a nano pog) but when i checked for more affordable alternatives the Mooer tender has turned up. I will likely order one this week, and will let you guys know what i think of it. From the guitar videos i have seen this thing works quite well, so ill be interrested in experiencing it first hand in the bass range.
tick tock, did you get the Tender?
 
Late to the game but chiming in. The Pitchfork works fine with my Voodoo power supply. It tracks pretty well, but I find the tracking on my POG Micro to be a little more accurate. I have not tried them side by side, and I tend to play around with different basses and styles, so it may be just me. If the octave down works as well on the nano I'll likely ditch the Micro due to size, but sound wise it's the best sounding octave pedal I've tried. I'd list off the others but would have a hard time remembering what I liked and didn't like about each one. If I had to have just one of the 2 of them (between the Pitchfork and Micro POG) it would be the Pitchfork due to it being good enough and considerably smaller.
