Darkglass Electronics OMEGA 900 Overview
Provide yourself with total control over your bass tone with the Alpha Omega 900 from Darkglass Electronics, a 900W bass amp head with flexible 6-band active EQ control. With the powerful and fully selectable Alpha Omega distortion engine, you can easily dial in punchy, tight bass or raw, brutal tone, thanks to the handy Mod control.
The Alpha Omega 900 is loaded with useful tone-controlling features including adjustable compression, drive, drive gain, preamp gain, master volume, and a Blend knob for precisely mixing the clean and distorted signals. You also get push buttons for passive or active mode, distortion circuit on or off, and Bite and Growl, which offer a 2.8 kHz high-mid peak boost and shelving bass boost respectively. The I/O is extensive, including two speakON speaker outputs, an FX loop, pre- and post-DI XLR outputs, a headphone output with dedicated volume control and cab emulation, and even MIDI, USB, and footswitch connections.
Alpha Omega Distortion Engine
With the dedicated push button, you can turn the Alpha Omega Engine on or off to add natural compression, organic harmonic enhancement, and saturation, ranging from mild overdrive to high-gain, raging bass. The Alpha Omega Engine operates before the clean section, allowing you to use the 6-band active EQ for additional tone shaping.
Passive or Active Modes
With special push-button switches, you can change from passive to active mode. If your bass is active, it can have a hotter signal, making the amp to distort early.
EQ Control
- Bass: ± 12 dB at 80 Hz
- Mids control of ± 12 dB at 250 and 500 Hz, as well as 1.5 and 3 kHz
- Treble: ± 12 dB at 5 kHz

- Growl button offers a shelving bass boost for fatter tone and increased low-end saturation
