What a weird little funky device!!

If you're trying to sound like a 12 string, or a bass, this certainly is the pedal to do that! It's really weird, and I'm all for weird things!

The best all-around octave pedal

I'm embarrassed, because the Micro POG was my first octave pedal, and I then embarked on a seven or eight pedal quest to find something better, only to have to re buy this one again at the end. It really is the winner.

The tracking is impressive and clean, even on chords and strange intervals. Dissonant chords or minor second intervals, which are usually the bane of octave pedals, even track well on this one.

The sound of the lower octave is pretty good, and if you needed to 'fake' a bass signal by pitching down a guitar, this is the octave pedal I'd choose. The high octave is a bit obnoxious on its own, but I don't think anybody really plays the high octave by itself. Mixed in with the dry signal at ten or eleven o'clock, it sounds perfectly good.

Do yourself a favor and skip the seven or so other octave pedals I tried before having to re-purchase this one again, and just start here.

The standard in polyphonic octaves!

I received the pedal two years ago. Of all the tested, this would be the fastest and cleanest tracking! I mainly used it for ambient guitar pads, Organ simulation or to simulate bass runs with the guitar. For the first task it is perfect for the others a good compromise.

The pedal can not do much, but what it does can do it perfectly: Addition of an octave above and one below the notes played! These can be mixed together with the original sound source arbitrarily with each other in the volume. Hence the 3 volume controllers.

Very curious

It can give you a curious sound, both for guitar and for electric bass, you can create very curious sounds and fill a lot.

From Gear Setup

Very unique, not at all essential, but pretty fucking enjoyable.

Would give it a 5 stars if it was an essential pedal like a comp, a reverb or a drive, but honestly it's so damn good and it can easily give personality, color and variety to your sound.

Clear tone, easy to use, but not too practical...

I originally bought this pedal as I wanted to be able to change octave midway through songs, or add an almost 'synth-bass' feel that I wouldn't be able to get my BOSS Super Octave. It's super easy to use, with the knobs clearly labelled. The only reason it only gets 3 stars instead of 4, or 5, is that there is no battery capability, which is fine for pedalboards, but the cumbersome size should offer battery capability.

OUTSTANDING SOUND

there's a lot of detune or octaving pedals, but thi is just a quite a terrific sound and very unique!

Awesome

Nothing beats the original - I’ve found it difficult to replicate the sound this pedal produces with anything else. Bit fussy when it comes to power but seems to work best when isolated.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Organ like Sound

Got it 3 Years ago. Prefered the Organ Sound over all the Artifical Sounding Octaver/Pitchshifter Pedals for Bass a lot.

Nowadays there might be better Pitch Shift Pedals on the market like the Hedra and the Brainwaves pedals but i didnt play those pedals enough to be sure about that.

Wow

This is easily the best pedal I own. I use it because my band is only drums and bass guitar so I use it in conjunction with a boss oc-3 to get a thicker sound. It is absolutely amazing, the tracking is perfect and the tone remains exactly the same which is something the boss pedal can't do.
