Yes, it's a little pricey. But check http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/ElectroHarmonix-POG-Polyphonic-Octave-Generator-?sku=153330 out. Fat octaves yeah, but that organ sound really makes it incredible IMO. I think this is my next purchase O_o

Yeah my friend told me about it and its organ sound wink.gif Well it can be a cool "toy" to have around wink.gif

Cool JVM. Thanks for the share. That organ synth really reminded me of a "Rush" tone.

That's interesting. There's a bunch of interesting demos on Youtube out there for this device. I'd like to hear someone abusing it though, like the organ through a nasty distortion.

I'm more of a fan of destroying your tone more, I think. I like to listen to the sounds of Jimmy Page and Clapton, but I like making the sounds of Ministry, Nirvana and NIN. I can't help it. Aaron North kicks my butt. Tim Skold too.

I was going to go into that more here, but it's kinda hijacking the thread, I think. I'll do something separate in a bit.

EHX pedals are the best ones to go for when you want to be able to really make some weird noises. Really, they do great "normal" effects, but they're also some really extreme stuff... you'll find nirvana, dinosaur jr, and a lot of those kind of guys using electro harmonix. For good reason smile.gif

wow i want this as well as all the other cool stuff in my want list lol

BUMP!

I was wondering, with the way this thing has sliders rather than knobs, if there would be a way (maybe some of you tinkerers would have an answer) that you could hook something like a http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Tone-in-Progress-Third-Hand-Expression-Pedal-?sku=150146 expression pedal to the dry output slider to be able to move seamlessly from say, a distorted guitar tone to an overdriven hammond like tone. It would be really cool for deep purple kind of stuff.

This pedal is awesome! Great quality sound to it. WIth some creativity it can really boost the sound of one guitar player smile.gif
