The Electro-Harmonix POG2 is an advanced polyphonic octave generator pedal designed for guitarists and other musicians. Building upon its predecessor, the POG2 offers enhanced tonal variations and programmable presets. It allows users to create a wide range of sounds, from subtle octave shifts to rich, symphonic textures, by blending multiple polyphonic octave harmonics with the dry signal. Its intuitive slider controls and memory functions make it a versatile tool for sound exploration and performance.

Eto Itọsọna
Before operating your POG2 pedal, ensure proper connection to your instrument and amplifier. The pedal requires a 9V DC power supply, which is included with the unit. Always use the provided power supply or a compatible isolated power supply to prevent damage.
- Asopọ agbara: Connect the 9V DC power supply to the "9V DC" input jack on the top of the pedal. Plug the power supply into a standard electrical outlet.
- Igbewọle Irinse: Connect your instrument (e.g., guitar) to the "INPUT" jack on the right side of the pedal using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
- AmpIjade lifier: Connect the "OUTPUT" jack on the left side of the pedal to your amplifier's input using another standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
- Awọn Eto Ibẹrẹ: For first use, set all voice mix sliders (Dry Output, -2 Octaves, -1 Octave, +1 Octave, +2 Octaves) to their lowest position. Set the Attack, LP Filter, and Detune sliders to their lowest positions as well. This provides a clean starting point.

These controls allow you to further shape the character of the generated octave effects.
- DRY FX Button (with LED): This button determines how your dry signal interacts with the Attack, LP Filter, and Detune effects.
- LED Paa: Dry signal bypasses all effects.
- LED pupa: Dry signal goes through the Attack effect but bypasses the LP Filter and Detune.
- Green Green: Dry signal goes through the Attack and LP Filter effects but bypasses the Detune.
- Amber LED: Dry signal goes through all three effects: Attack, LP Filter, and Detune.
- KOLU: Controls the fade-in speed of the octave voices. Higher settings result in a slower, more gradual swell.
- LP FILTER: A low-pass filter that cuts off high frequencies from the octave voices. Moving the slider up opens the filter, allowing more high frequencies through.
- Q Button (with LED): This button adds resonance to the LP Filter. Pressing it cycles through different Q settings, boosting the frequencies around the filter's cutoff point.
- PẸLU: Adds a subtle detuning effect to the octave voices, creating a chorus-like or thickening sound.
