The Olympic MkIIIS is the newest revision of Shift Line's bass preamplifier that combines the classic tube sound with modern audio processing technologies, creating a true "Swiss Army knife" for bass players as a result. Sculpting your signature sound and taking it anywhere you go has never been easier.

The Olympic MkIIIS is a compact, fully-featured tube preamplifier with a warm, deep and characteristically compressed sound. The device's universal connectivity allows to use it even in the most complex setups.

The cabinet simulation is based on the Impulse Response Convolution technology, which provides a realistic and detailed sound while preserving the character of the power amp, cabinet and microphone used to record the impulse.

The device comes with two built-in cabinet impulses: SUNN 200s 2х15 and AMPEG SVT-810E 8х10. The microSD card slot allows users to upload their own cabinet impulses.

Olympic MkIII

Who said bass guitar didn't need distortion? We believe it definitely does - and there's a growing number of bass players who agree with us. Alas, there are still few dedicated bass distortion pedals; for the most part, bass players have had to use either guitar stompboxes or no distortion pedals at all.

Here at Shift Line, we take bass distortion seriously - most of us are bass players, after all. As soon as we released our Olympic MkII bass preamp, we started working on our brand new distortion pedal for bass: the A+ BUZZ.

And let us tell you this: we are very happy with the sounds Buzz can produce. It sings, it growls, it saturates - and it does it all at your command. With A+ Buzz, your bass guitar will truly stand out in the mix. Let there be rock!

The A+ Astronaut V is the newest addition to the Astronaut space reverb family. Based around the ARM ® processor, the Cortex ® technology and the Analog Devices codec, the new pedal is the most advanced and impressive-sounding Astronaut space unit to date!

The Astronaut V offers 22 unique sound-processing algorithms, each with flexible controls. The best algorithms featured in the previous versions have been reworked in order to utilize the new processor to the fullest. The Astronaut V can do anything from traditional reverb sounds to complex soundscapes, effects and arpeggios.

With the fully updated UI, each algorithm now saves user settings into the device's memory. The Astronaut V is a collection of 33 extensively tweakable presets, allowing you to focus on the music!
