Electro Harmonic POG3

Just received an email about this from EHX: https://www.ehx.com/products/pog3/

That hefty price tag aside, it looks fascinating. Probably not fascinating enough to get one (yet) but definitely one of the highlights of the pedal releases this year so far.

Official demo:


A bit odd that it’s not true bypass but I can live that. Only a mono in is also a jazzy choice; not sure why no stereo inputs. But yay for midi I/O, I guess?

Seems nice but kinda suspicious...

I bet it's nothing but the "old" EHX algorithms all over again.

Nothing bad about throwing together their pitch algo and then some from the Attack Decay and the Freeze/Superego (POG 3 has glissando!), and putting all that in a futuristic-looking box with a display (predetermined breaking point, imho), but it's a bit on the expensive side (645$ street) for now.

I'll pass. My POG 2 is enough. I love that thing.

The more I look at it, the more I feel that this looks like something that came out 10, if not 15 years ago. Very strymon/AX8 kinda vibes.

The panel on that gives me anxiety just looking at it. My three knob Pog is safe for another day.
