Donāt in any way need this but it looks really fun to make giant sounds with.

Does this mean I missed my chance to sell my pog2 for top dollar? Itās my ābestā octave pedal but I have others I use way more.
Anyway, yeah, this new one looks awesome and Iām sure itās every bit as cool as it seems if not better. Ehx has some of the best pitch tracking in the business and have been doing octave and envelope pedals since the 70s.
The msrp is nuts, I wonder how much lower the street price will be. Iām not buying one but Iām curious.

The only price Iāve seen (in the email I got from EHX) is $645, which they identify as āUSA Street,ā rather than MSRP. It might still change by the time it makes it stores, but most of these prices Iāve seen before are the prices the product sells for at retail.
Which is, yes, a nuts point.
Didnāt want to start a TE-esque price discussion but yeah my thinking is the same. I was like: canāt wait for this to be on my pedalboard - ups no way.
I loved the POG2, had several of them over the years. Not ideal for touring but brilliant for home/studio use. You can get so many sounds out of them, far more than the basic organ stuff.
Last time I had one, I sold it for a Pitchfork and never looked back. That was like everything I loved in the POG2 but polyphonic.
POG2 is polyphonic for sure. Is the Pitchfork more polyphonic? 
Iāve read/heard it was more accurate, that said.
Iāve often considered changing my POG2 for another version of it, but the attack and filter are really what set it aside from the other ones -except POG3.
It has a special way of dealing with slow attack: I first expected that aeach new note detected would retrigger the envelope which would affect all existing notes, but it actually does something weird. I seems to replace the input signal with a resynthesised version of it when you increase the attack time. This allows to get a slow attack for each new note without affecting the rest of the existing signal. If that makes sense 
That plus the EHX Freeze on piano soundsā¦ really strange and cool textures.
I cannot remember reading that anywhere but Iāve just read it on the POG3 description; in substantia: each new note has itās own attack without affecting the others.
Now, the POG3 is a little to much for me. I like simplicity, immediacy. And LoFi-sh sound. But it is for sure a nice product.
Argh, sorry! I didnāt mean polyphonic, obviously the POG2 is polyphonic (Polyphonic Octave
Generator, duh 
) what I meant to say was the POG2 had fixed octaves whereas the Pitchfork has multiple intervals, so for my use it was more versatile. I do love the ābowedā swell to the attack on the POG2 and the flute sounds, but couldnāt find a use for those other than messing around. I also thought the Pitchfork tracking was snappier, but not sure.
The POG3 looks brilliant, I love that it has USB-C connectivity for preset organisation, knobs for panning each voice and MIDI in/out. Bloody pricey though, innit?

Ok, got it. Yes, it kinds of becomes a member of the HOG series - Harmonic Octave Generators.
I read the Pitchfork tracking was snappier indeed.
Could someone share/record audio/video that shows, what a POG does to a mono synth? Iāve tried to search for some, but didnāt really find any
If youāre wiling to hear what a POG sounds like, I have a couple of noodles somewhere using a monosynth and the POG 2.
If you want to hear this very POG 3, I cannot help.

Starts off reminding us that if the filter is closed all the way you wonāt hear a thing. 
Nice pedal steel demo
I like the Inspo sounds in the 2nd half
This is actually an older vid featuring Tom Burdo but I revisited it after downloading the preset packs. I had an understanding of how Bill Ruppertās presets were intended to be used but not Burdoās.
