Jimi Hendrix might be called the father of effect pedals, with his innovative use of distortion pedals, wah-wahs, vibes and phase shifters. So it’s no surprise that the legendary guitarist was one of the earliest to experiment with an octave divider.
The T-Rex Octavius is our take on this unusual and powerful effect. A tri-tone generator with a perfect set of controls and a brilliant BOOST function, Octavius gives you everything you could want in octave generation – plus incredible T-Rex tone
Octavius lets you get that classic octave-down effect you’ll recognise from Hendrix’ “Machine Gun” and other recordings. But it also lets you add in a high octave so you can hit your audiences with a sonic wall of three-octave lead lines.
You can mix the octaves however you want to create your own signature sound. And the pedal features a controllable boost button to help you lift your solos up above the mix.
An octave divider or any other pedal is only as good as it sounds, and you can count on Octavius to deliver all the warm, vintage-sounding tone you’d expect from T-Rex.
Try out the T-Rex Octavius and experience the thrill of what this masterpiece of sound and technology can do for the music you make.
LO OCT, HIGH OCT, MASTER MIX and BOOST.
LO OCT knob lets you set the volume of the lower octave signal produced by the pedal.
HIGH OCT knob controls the volume of the higher octave signal produced by the pedal.
The balance between the levels of these 2 knobs is what creates your particular octave-divided sound. Experiment with your mix, and you’ll be amazed at the variety of effects you’ll get.
MASTER MIX knob lets you set the overall volume of your low and high octaves compared to your direct signal.
Use the BOOST knob to control the output of your octave-divided sound. The boost function lets you dial in a solo level, whether the overdrive circuit is activated or not.

LOW OCT
Mit diesem Regler bestimmst du die Lautstärke des unteren Oktavsignals.
HIGH OCT
Mit diesem Regler bestimmst du die Lautstärke des oberen Oktavsignals.
MASTER MIX
Dieser Regler bestimmt das Mischungsverhältnis zwischen dem direkten Gitarrensignal und den oktavierten Klängen.
Die Mischung der beiden Lautstärkeregler HIGH OCT und LOW OCT, kombiniert mit der unterschiedlichen Stellung des MASTER MIX Reglers erzeugt deinen ganz speziellen Oktavsound. Du hast unendlich viele Möglichkeiten, Facetten der unteren, mittleren und oberen Oktave zueinander zu bringen.
BOOST
Dies ist eine reine Pegelanhebung, die auch ohne den Octaver Effekt funktioniert. Gerade jedoch bei der Betonung der oberen Oktave verliert das Gitarrensignal an Druck, der mit Hilfe des Boosters wieder ausgeglichen werden kann.
