Electro-Harmonix Micro POG Polyphonic Octave Generator
Electro-Harmonix · pedal
The Electro-Harmonix Micro POG (Polyphonic Octave Generator) is a polyphonic octave pedal capable of generating sub-octave and one-octave-up harmonics alongside the dry signal with no tracking latency. Three controls (Sub Octave, Dry, Octave Up) allow independent level mixing of each register. Unlike monophonic octave pedals, the Micro POG tracks chords and complex playing accurately. Used by guitarists seeking organ-like tones, bass simulation, and harmonic richness. True bypass. A smaller version of the original POG.
