The new site kicks some serious butt. www.ehx.com
They completely revamped it, and made it easy to get to demo videos, too.
I think this quells our frustrations. 
They still need more samples on bass...

Now there is, but I don't know if they're done yet. I also noticed that the Russian muff is on the new site. I wonder if the other Russian pedals will be put up again. It always bothered me that they weren't represented on the old site. |

It shouldn't make a difference in terms of buying gear, but it always bothered me that EHX had such a terrible site before. For a large pedal manufacturer it was shockingly bad.
The redesigned site is great. Clean, easy to navigate and with plenty of multimedia, though I agree they need more samples, specifically bass samples.
Oh, and I think it's cool that those "unofficial demos" from Michael Leonhart are now becoming official. I thought they were cool. I saw the Micro Pog one but do they have the Knockout/SMM/SEM etc ones too? |

Didn't see a thread about it, but I'm guessing that one will be appearing fairly shortly if I am the first to see it...

It also lacks a "Response" knob. They changed the "Sweep" switch to a knob where the "Response" knob used to be.
Feel free to start a thread, though.

They haven't done that though. When I go to it on my Blackberry, it just has a message about requiring Flash 8. No info about the company whatsoever. |
