Full Description

Powerful harmonisation

Expand your harmonic palette. With the Electro Harmonix HOG2 Harmonic Octave Generator, EHX have advanced to an even greater level of performance and functionality. 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. With separate upper and lower harmonic amplitude envelopes, you have full control over your attack and decay speeds allowing deep tonal customisation. The freeze function is an intelligent feature that adds to the deluxe feel of this pedal, it allows you to hold the existing sound like a portamento piano pedal, while also allowing you to then play over it. This is perfect for creating dense, rich textural soundscapes. With up to 100 storable presets, save all your best settings for later use and access them at any time with ease. The HOG2 is a must-have for anyone that loves experimenting with rich textures and seeks natural-sounding harmonisation.
