The Electro-Harmonix Micro POG is a compact polyphonic octave generator pedal, perfect for guitarists and bassists seeking to expand their sonic palette. This innovative pedal allows players to transform their 6-string guitar into a 12-string, or their 4-string bass into an 8-string, delivering glitch-free polyphonic tracking. With controls for Octave, Sub Octave, and Octave Up, the Micro POG offers a range of effects from subtle enhancements to extreme octave shifts. Users can achieve unique organ-like tones and combine it with other effects like overdrive or distortion for a wide range of musical styles. The inclusion of dry and wet outputs enhances flexibility, making it a versatile addition to any pedalboard. Since its release in 2007, it's been a favorite among musicians globally.
Reviewers praise the Micro POG for its ability to create a wide range of sounds, from subtle octave enhancements to extreme, organ-like tones, and it tracks chords and lead lines equally well. Guitarists appreciate the pedal's versatility, with many using it to simulate organ sounds. While some users noted that the pedal adds a unique 'color' or 'organ' flavor to the notes, most were very happy, finding it inspiring for experimentation and musical creativity.
