Was about to post the same thing - sounds brilliant. Seen anywhere how much it'll be?

According to this site the US list price will be $293.73
Not sure what that would make a UK street price.
I'll see if I can find what the list prices of existing pedals are to get a rough idea (feel like Poirot).

Okay, so the Cathedral reverb also has a US list price of $293.73 (odd price).
They seem to go for about £145 over here.

Needs sliders, not knobs.
After the POG this is a pretty logical progression. I wonder why it took so long to get round to it?

Man, I'm super impressed.
Really want to hear a VI through this thing; would be gnarly as fuck.

Totally, the sound of a Bass VI and fuzz with this thing would be so huge.

THIS.
More practically, that Mod knob needs a passive input for volume pedal-operated speed control, for proper Leslie and Tremolo effects on the fly. If the RT20 can do a very limiting fast/slow thing with a simple pedal switch, surely Mike Mathews could get all caffeinated excited on our behalf and do just a tad more with the B9. Come on, after the fun with the original EHX HOG, would it really be all that troublesome to add, guys?

Exactly what I was thinking, was amazed skimming the pic to not find an exp pedal input, would be the icing on the cake.
Realistically though I'll probably buy one of these anyway.

Cool sounds, I hope the price point is good. I didn't hear many noises I can't cop with my pog2 and hog, but this will be a really good way for people to get a bit more of an accurate sound than the micropog.

Yeah finboy, I'm not sure I'd even be interested in this if I had or could afford either of/both the pog2 and hog, I think it's meant to be a more friendly take on the organ-copping capabilities of their more complicated octave effects while staying a bit more complex than the micropog. Since that's likely all I'd use a Pog2 for (sober) it might take over my GAS for one if the price is right.
Plus I keep getting really close to buying a real organ before remembering I can't actually play piano or keyboard instruments for shit and you can't program fatbeatz into a B3.

I have a Pog 1 but I still like the look of this.
Must concentrate on buying another Microsynth first...

I actually have more fun with my Microsynth than my pog 2 or hog, it's so much easier to get crazy and fun noises. Pots/hogs you have to work harder to make it sound like anything besides an organ, the Microsynth can sound can change almost immediately with the slightest changes in settings.
