sTATUS LED – This LED indicates the current state of the unit. When the LED is lit up, the box
is in effect mode. When the LED is off, the box is in TRUE BYPASS mode. The POG will always
start up in bypass mode.
INPUT Jack – This ¼" jack is the audio input to the POG.
OUTPUT Jack – This ¼" jack is the audio output from the POG. When the POG is in bypass
mode, the OUTPUT jack is connected directly to the INPUT jack.
Here are some fun sounds we came up with while developing the POG. They can all be
seasoned to your own tastes.
12-string Guitar – Turn your 6-string into a 12. Set all of the sliders to 0. Bring up the INPUT
slider to about 40%. Set the DRY and LP FILTER sliders to their maximum positions. Bring +1
OCTAVE DETUNED up to about 70%. Set the LPF MODE switch to Mode 2. For an 18-string
guitar, raise the +2 OCTAVES DETUNED to 75%.
Phat Bass – Turn your guitar into a great sounding bass. Set all of the sliders to 0. Turn the
INPUT slider up to 50-75%. Set the SUB OCTAVE slider to its maximum position. Bring the LP
FILTER slider up to about 25%. Put the LPF MODE switch into Mode 3. Works best with low
notes on the guitar.
Organ – Turn your guitar into an organ. Set the INPUT slider up to about 50%. Bring the DRY,
SUB OCTAVE and +1 OCTAVE sliders up to their maximum positions. Set the +1 OCTAVE
DETUNED slider to about 75%. Bring the +2 OCTAVE slider up to about 80%. Set both the +2
OCTAVES DETUNED and the LP FILTER sliders to about 50%. Set the LPF MODE switch to
