Thumbs up OMG mini POG!

Sign in to disble this ad
Just picked the new Electro Harmonix Micro POG. Just have to say that this pedal is worth its weight in diamonds. Tracks flawlessly, sounds great in many many applications. Wish i could post some sound clips for everyone, but i dont have that ability at the moment.
So , if you have the means, pick it up, you will NOT be disappointed. All questions welcome.

Now that's what I like to hear and what I keep hearing; good reviews about the Micro POg. Got mine 2 days ago but have not had a chance to even give it a quick test run.

Micro POG. Tried it a couple of weeks back. Must say I'm impressed with it. Really easy find useable sounds. Was really tempted to buy it straight away. Definitely on my GAS list.

Have you guys ever been able to compare this with an EBS Octabass? The Micro POG has been on my G.A.S. list since it was first announced, but I've already got the Octabass and really dig it.

+1, it'd be GREAT to hear some clips!

+1 Great Tracking and Dead Quiet

Got in a mixed sale/trade (thanks David) and was suprised that it stuck, I was expecting to just try it and turn it over.

Got mine last week and it is easily the best tracking octave I've ever tried.
I like the tone of the Octron but I need perfect tracking and I can mimic the Octron with some fuzz so it's Micro POG for me.

Great to hear that it is quiet. I ordered a Boss NS-2 nosie gate to try and quiet down my LBM. Love the LBM but the noise is killing me!

One of my favorite things i did with it was HUGE swells. I turned on all of my pedals: XXL, Sansamp PBDDI(dialed in fat bottom fuzzyness), Micro POG(lots of dry and octave up, little bit of octave down), Phase 90 clone, Holier Grail reverb(hall), Line 6 DL4.
The sound was absolutely ginormous. So, literally, it can go from doing that to completely clean octave duties and everything in between. Oh and i also really loved blending in just enough octave up to give hard rocking riffs some extra attack and definition. The pedal is just amazing, all around.

Has anybody used the Micro Pog with another harmonizer? I'm wondering what you could with a Micro Pog going through a Whammy.

Is anyone powering the Micro Pog with the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2+.
Neither EHX or Voodoo Lab would give me a straight answer.
Micro Pog needs 9.6V and the PP2+ puts out 9V.

Anyone making it work in the real world.

the m.POG is a really nice pedal, i run the wet signal through a LBM and it really fattens up my distortion tone.
