Designed in collaboration with legendary bassist and producer Amos Heller, Kaamos blends a powerful distortion with octave-down tones.

Real-time routing controls let you shape your signal path with ease—stack effects in series for rich saturation or run them in parallel for intricate, layered textures. A movable effects loop, configurable in three distinct positions, opens up new possibilities, while a dedicated sub-octave output unlocks creative multi-amp setups. Every detail is precision-engineered to put you in complete control of your sound.

Here’s the text without formatting:

Blend adjusts the drive blend. Press to select the loop position.

Tone adjusts the drive tone. Press to select between processed signal and clean DI for the XLR out.

Drive adjusts the amount of distortion in the drive circuit.

Drive mod adjusts the blend between two distinct drive circuits (α and Ω).

Drive level adjusts the level of the drive circuit before the blend.

Octave filter adjusts the lowpass filter frequency of the low octave. Press to select the type of octaver.

Sublime (monophonic mute-type) Sublemon (monophonic flip-type) Subcitri (polyphonic)

Octave level adjusts the low octave signal amount in the octaver circuit. Press to select between parallel or series effect positioning.

Clean level adjusts the clean signal amount in the octaver circuit.

Dimensions: Width: 125 mm / 5″ Length: 96 mm/ 3¾″ Height: 57 mm / 2¼″ Weight: 450 g / 0.99 lb

Warning: Kaamos has a current draw of 400mA. Only use a regulated 9V DC adapter with a center-negative plug. Unregulated power supplies and/or higher voltages may result in suboptimal noise performance and even damage your unit, voiding the warranty.

The octaver and distortion effect blocks can be configured to be either in series or in parallel by pressing the [octave level] knob. The LEDs above the knob will indicate which mode is selected.

The position of the effects loop can be configured to three different positions in the signal chain:

  • after the octaver
  • after the distortion
  • in parallel with the signal chain

The position is selected by pressing the Blend knob and the LEDs above the know indicate the selected position.

  • In the 1. position the loop is active when the octaver is active.
  • In the 2. position the loop is active when the distortion is active.
  • In the 3. position the loop is active when either one or both of the octaver and distortion are active.

The effects loop automatically detects if nothing is plugged in and removes itself from the signal chain.
