I have heard that the block logo version is better at retaining the low end. Is this true?

Which phaser and Octave pedal for me?

For Octave pedals the MXR is a very fine pedal. Highly recommended.
I use the BYOC Divided Octave. Big foot print but very orgainic sound.
Not quite as reliable as the MXR when it comes to the precision of notes.
For Phasers: MXR Scrip is great on bass, the Block is good too.
I use a Boss PH-1R and a Moog MF-103. That last one is huge, expensive but for phase there is nothing like it. Last thought for a very wild phase ride Roland AP-7 Jet Phaser.

I'll give another vote for EBS Octabass. The thing is just awsome. Sound is great and the low/mid/high swich can get really handy for setting your tone. Also the quality is as high as it can get. That thing could survive a nuclear attack.
I forgot to throw out my favorite octaver. Frequent TB'ers will know that I'm a complete fanboi of this... Line 6 M5 Bass Octave. Analog tone, digital tracking.

---------------------------------------------
I really like using pedals ... but a phasor and octave pedal just don't do it for me.

I may be alone in this, but the Carl Martin Two Faze is my absolute favorite phaser for bass. I also have an MXR EVH, a Boss PH2, a Line 6 Mod Pro and a Pigtronix EP2 as well, but the TwoFaze sounds the best to me. The Pigtronix is really, really cool, mind you, but for pure phasing, the Martin wins.
The only negative: it cannot run on batteries.
