Octavius Squeezer analog bass synth

Godlyke Distributing Inc. announces the release of Chunk Systems' Octavius Squeezer analog bass synthesizer. The Octavius Squeezer is the world's first analog/digital hybrid bass synthesizer to be housed in a compact stompbox format. With an analog audio path that features a variety of synth, octave, fizz, and filter effects and a digital preset system that allows constant reconfiguration of the audio signal path and storage of parameter settings as well as an on-board tuner and tap-tempo metronome, the Octavius Squeezer is one pedal truly sticks out from what is already available and is most probably worth some attention...

Hold your breath, though, cos this little beauty will be out only at the end of August 2008.
It is made in Australia and lists for 599 $. You can pre-order Nom
