Description
Overview
The Electro-Harmonix Micro POG is a compact, pedalboard-friendly version of the legendary Polyphonic Octave Generator. Renowned for its flawless tracking and musical flexibility, the Micro POG allows guitarists to expand their sonic palette by adding one or two octaves to their original signal. Unlike monophonic octave pedals, the Micro POG features polyphonic tracking, meaning it can accurately process chords, arpeggios, and complex melodies without the glitches or “warbling” common in lesser octave effects.
Key Details
- Polyphonic Tracking: Super-fast, glitch-free tracking that handles single notes and full chords with ease.
- Three-Way Volume Control: Independent adjustment knobs for the Dry signal, One Octave Up, and One Octave Down, allowing for total blend customization.
- Dual Output Routing: Includes a dedicated Dry output jack in addition to the effect output, enabling parallel processing or blending via a mixing console.
- Rugged Construction: Housed in a tough, compact die-cast chassis designed to withstand the rigors of touring and heavy foot use.
Use Cases
- 12-String Simulation: Blend the original signal with the octave-up setting to emulate the lush sound of a 12-string guitar.
- Bass Expansion: Crank the octave-down volume to instantly transform a standard electric guitar into a deep, powerful bass instrument.
- Organ Textures: Mix both octaves with the dry signal to create rich, synthetic tones reminiscent of church organs or Hammond organs.
- Layered Orchestration: Use the polyphonic capability to add massive weight to power chords or ethereal shimmer to ambient arpeggios.
Installation
The Micro POG is designed for straightforward integration into any signal chain. Simply connect your instrument to the input and your amplifier to the output. For advanced setups, utilize the Dry output jack to send your unaffected signal to a separate amp or channel. The pedal is powered via the included power adapter, ensuring stable voltage for consistent tracking performance.
Compatibility
The Micro POG is compatible with any standard electric guitar, bass, or keyboard capable of producing a line-level or instrument-level signal. It is designed for use with standard 1/4″ TS instrument cables.
