Sèvi ak efè yo

The Soul POG allows for independent or combined use of its two effects. Press the MANJE NANM footswitch to activate the overdrive, and the POG footswitch to activate the octave generator. The order of effects can be customized using the internal FX loop. By default, the Soul Food is before the POG. To insert other pedals between them, use the SEND and RETURN jacks. The SECHE jack provides a clean signal, useful for bi-amping or sending to a tuner without affecting the main effect chain.
