Simply amazing
KostasM 18.01.2021
I previously owned a Darkglass Alpha Omega and after 4 years of loving everything about it I chose to upgrade to the Ultra version.

The eq is smooth and as responsive as it should be, the Drive versatility is beyond everything else I've seen or tried. Sounds even more refined and improved from the regular version of the pedal. The growl and Bite switches are smooth and work perfectly as intended.

The cabsims give literaly endless posibilities and give an impressive final touch on the overall sound played with drive or clean. The option to have just the EQ without Drive makes it even more wonderful and versatile. The aux in and headphone out also make it perfect for practice etc.

It's lightweight compact and beautiful.

Can't express enough how impressed I am of this pedal's sound and posibilities. Darkglass is beyond this world.

Great pedal, but not 100% perfect
Fran The Man 16.09.2021
PERFECT for a flying rig: you can go to FOH directly with this pedal, the cabs choice is great, you can even upload your IRs!
I DO LOVE the eq bands: very precise, easy to use, also with leds! Beautiful!
GREAT DISTORTION: You have the Alpha (more classic type of distortion) distortion AND the Omega (very aggressive type of distortion). You can blend the 2 for perfect results.

WISH LIST:
1) You cannot store favourite presets (it would have been great something like you press the footswitch for 3 seconds and you can save a preset).
2) Instead of growl and byte buttons I would have added the bass and treble knobs of the Harmonic booster.

CONS:
I think you need an extra pedal to really sculpt the tone of the Alpha Omega Ultra V2. This is why I also bought the Darkglass Harmonic Booster. Without it the sound is a little bit muffled, like covered with a blanket.
For the growl and byte buttons I would have used little on/off switches.

With good settings, it sounds delicious.

However, sadly the usb connection doesn't allow to change anything other than the cab simulator.
Sounds great on guitars aswel for me.

Volle Kraft voraus!

Die Überschrift deutet es an: hier sind ordentlich Gain- Reserven am Start, aber beginnen wir vorne.

Verarbeitung: Die ist wie bei den anderen Pedalen der Marke sehr gut. Das Gehäuse wird mit CNC- Präzision gefräst und auch die Potis laufen gut.

Features: Im Vergleich zum Vorgänger wurde hier endlich ein Kopfhörerausgang angebracht, was wirklich Vorteile bringt, weil man dann kein Interface zum stillen Üben benötigt.

Sound: Dieser ist DG- typisch klasse. Im Vergleich zum Vorgängermodell wurde das Rauschverhalten deutlich reduziert, was für mich eine ordentliche Qualitätssteigerung bedeutet. In Spielpausen bin ich nun nicht mehr der lauteste.
Die Verzerrung ist natürlich die größte Stärke des Pedals, welche sich stufenlos zwischen zwei Polen dosieren lässt. Das saubere Signal lässt sich nach Wunsch dazu mischen, wodurch der gewünschte Druck erhalten bleibt. Der Grafik- EQ greift wirkungsvoll ein und sowohl clean als auch verzerrt bekomme ich einen gut ortbaren Bandsound. Für die Zerrstufe kann man hohe und auch tiefe Frequenzen boosten. Das cleane Signal bleibt davon unbeeinflusst.

Bedienung: Hier gibt es den einzigen Minuspunkt. Die Einstellung der Boostschalter ist einfach nicht zu erkennen. Wenn ich die Schaltstellung herausfinden möchte, muss ich erst zweimal die entsprechenden Schalter drücken, um ihre Position zu ermitteln.

Alles in allem mit DI, Cabsim und den vielen Anschlussmöglichkeiten meine erste Wahl in allen musikalischen Situationen!
