    Does anyone have suggestions as to where to put the Pog 2 on a pedalboard? Right now I have the following in this order:

    Tuner, Wah Wah, distortion, Phaser, Delay, Reverb, Vol

    I also have a POG2, and I would put it right before your distortion. That way you have a fairly clean signal for the POG2 to work with, and your dirt box can distort the well formed octaves pretty easily. Same with any modulation effects (phaser, etc.), they can modulate the octaves coming through easily. The POG2 does track the incoming signal super well, I just like the idea of making it easier on the POG2 to create some super pristine octaves, and then letting my other pedals do their magic to the signal coming through.

    I’d put it before the wah, but that’s just me.

    If you plan on using the wah and the POG2 simultaneously, I agree. I just haven’t used them together at all. (Could be fun… hmm….)

    And I would have the pog2 after distortion. I had only the Micropog but I liked it after filters and fuzz. I guess it depends on what the distortion is. The whole Pog line really does sound good all the way down the chain.

    Me too. :thumb:

    I’ve used all the POGs (currently have a POG2) and I pretty much always put them after my OD/dist/fuzz pedals…

    and I’d put the phaser before the distortion too.

    Hello All,

    I’d put the POG before Delay/Reverb, but it also depends on what sound you are trying to create. If you want a lot of sound shaping, use your distortion to create the raw tone for the POG. I have a HOG & I have found the sound to be very reliant on what the HOG gets first to filter & pitch shift. Time based stuff should go at the end IMHO because I find that with a lot of filtering/pitching the time based FX’s tend to get lost. Of course, if you can run some things in parrallel things get a LOT more interesting…………..
