It looks and sounds pretty rad but I have 5 pedals that do oct. downs on my board and adding another may be overkill.

I just can't get excited about an octave pedal. So tired of them. They all sound like shit to me unless it's octave up. Nobody can seem to do it right. So I don't care anymore.

Really? All mine do it quite differently but I love them all. Pitchfactor is by far the best of my bunch.

Agreed about the Pitchfactor. I'm just not that impressed with the sounds of this thing. I actually get tired of the whole "synth" bass thing. It's boring to me after awhile. Plus the only kind of music I hear it in is shit I don't like really. Give me fuzz!!! I don't really need the octave down though.

I know...I'm weird.

Octave down is my favorite. Booooooo on you.

Still, this is not something I'd by.

Makes sense. I play treble guitar and think a lot of octavey stuff stinks but this sounds great. Currently using a Copilot Mantis + Cosmi for synth lead like sounds and dig it. This seems to offer a lot of different coucings, and sounds like it could stack with fuzz. But I don't approach this sound from a bass perspective - so I totally get you Jwar. Bass and fuzz is a very different sound to guitar and fuzz. So um, moar fuzz.
