Electro-harmonix ABOUT electro-harmonix Electro Harmonix was founded in October 1968 by Mike Matthews. The first product was a fuzz pedal called the Axis Fuzztone. After that, the linear power booster "LPB-1", a model that could be called the original booster, created with Bob Mayer, an engineer at Bell Laboratories, who won numerous Nobel Prizes in Physics, became a big hit, and the Electro Harmonix brand became widely known, even though it was only sold by mail order. Subsequently, around the latter half of 1969, they released the famous "Big Muff", and in the 1970s they released models that are still popular today, such as the Small Stone and Memory Man, which recorded strong sales. Although the company was doing well in the 1970s, it faced problems with labor unions and parts supply in the 1980s, and went bankrupt once in 1984. So Mike Matthews moved to the former Soviet Union and established a new company, New Sensor Corp., in 1988. Under the "Sovtech" brand, the company produced products such as vacuum tubes, effectors, and amplifiers one after another, and made a comeback as a comprehensive music equipment manufacturer. In 1991, he regained the electro-harmonics trademark he had once lost, and in 2002 he returned to his base in New York, where he continues to deliver unique effect units to many players around the world. An evolved version of the famous octave generator "POG" Since its introduction in 2005, the "POG2" is an evolved version of the polyphonic polyphonic octave generator "POG" that has instantly captivated top artists. This unit can accurately generate octave sounds not only for single notes but also for chords, and allows accurate and smooth tracking. By mixing the original dry sound with the upper and lower octave sounds (+/-2 octaves, total 4 octaves), you can create completely new tones such as organ sounds and deep sounds like an 18-string guitar. The algorithm of the popular model "POG" has been strengthened to improve harmonic performance, and it is also possible to control the attack/tone/detune of each voice. By using the attack delay to fade in octave sounds, the 2-pole low-pass filter with switchable Q mode to create deep low frequencies, and the detune slider, you can create unique sounds like no other. The unit can store 8 programs and change settings quickly, so it is sure to be useful in a wide range of situations such as home practice, studios, and live performances. Each octave can be adjusted individually 8 sliders and 2 buttons determine the sound ■DRY OUTPUT: Controls the volume of dry sound (direct sound). ■-2 OCTAVES: Controls the volume of the signal two octaves below the original sound. ■-1 OCTAVE: Controls the volume of the signal one octave below the original sound. ■+1 OCTAVE: Controls the volume of the signal one octave above the original sound. ■+2 OCTAVES: Controls the volume of the signal two octaves above the original sound. ■ATTACK: Controls the attack envelope of all octave voices. Raising the [ATTACK] slider increases the attack time and strengthens the swell effect (reverse-like effect). Setting the slider to minimum turns off the attack effect. If the [DRY FX] LED is lit, the attack effect will also be applied to the dry sound. ■LP FILTER: Controls the cutoff frequency of the low pass filter. Raising the slider will increase the cutoff frequency. You can control the tone with this filter. All octave sounds generated by POG2 are sent to a low pass filter. Dry sound is bypassed when the [DRY FX] LED is off or red, and sent to the low-pass filter when it is green or orange. ■DETUNE: Controls the amount of detune (slight pitch shift) added to +1 and +2 octave signals. Raising the slider increases both the detune depth and rate. Setting the slider to minimum turns off the detune function. If the [DRY FX] LED is lit orange, detuning is also effective for dry sounds. ■DRY FX: Press the [DRY FX] button to switch the dry signal effect (ATTACK/LP FILTER/DETUNE) on/off and mode. ■Q: Press the [Q] button to switch the Q value (resonance) of the low-pass filter between 4 modes. As the value of Q increases, the LED lights up brighter. Memory can be operated using the PRESET switch/knob Equipped with a preset memory function that can save up to 8 items POG2 can store up to 8 presets in internal memory. Presets save slider settings and push button modes for [DRY FX] and [Q], but bypass switch settings are not saved. Even if you turn off the power and then turn it on again, all preset contents remain in memory, so you can quickly recall the sounds you created at home at live performances or recordings. *Please be sure to use the genuine adapter JP9.6DC-200 (included) for the power supply. Please note that if damage or malfunction occurs due to the use of an adapter made by another company, the product may not be covered by the warranty even if it is within the warranty period.

Product introduction

■Product description

Since its introduction in 2005, the polyphonic octave generator POG, which has instantly captivated top artists, has evolved even further and is now available as POG2.

Like POG, POG2 accurately generates octave sounds not only for single notes but also for chords, and with accurate and smooth tracking, it produces deep upper and lower octave sounds (+/-2 octaves) like an organ or 18-string guitar.

The algorithm has been strengthened to improve harmonic performance, and you can also control the attack, tone, and detune of each voice.

Fade in an octave sound with the attack delay, create deep low frequencies with the 2-pole low-pass filter with switchable Q mode, and use the detune slider to create creative sound making.

The main unit can store 8 programs, so you can quickly change settings during a live performance.
