The award winning HOG (Harmonic Octave Generator) earned kudos from players and reviewers alike for its ability to exponentially expand a musician’s sound palette. Now EHX take the HOG to an even greater level of performance and functionality with the HOG2. It delivers complete control of ten totally polyphonic and glitch free voices ranging from two octaves below to four above the instrument’s pitch—all without the need for a special pickup or instrument mods of any kind. The foot pedal for the Hog2 is available here The website sonicstate.com picked the HOG2 as the Best Pedal of the 2013 NAMM Show. ﾓThis particular pedal had us grinning from ear to ear, and we actually didnﾒt get to see it until the last day of NAMM. Itﾒs difficult to make a journalist smile on the last day of NAMM, weﾒre usually too busy nursing a headache and trying to remember what our own names are. But the Electro-Harmonix HOG2 blew us away, this is premium gear right here, but itﾒs worth every penny. There are a few ﾑsynthﾒ pedals out there for guitars, but this one can actually sound like a synth, rather than just a bit-crushed guitar.ﾔ The award winning HOG (Harmonic Octave Generator) earned kudos from players and reviewers alike because of its ability to generate ten, totally polyphonic and glitch free voices ranging from two octaves below to four above the instrumentﾒs pitch-all without the need for a special pickup or instrument mods of any kind.
