Bought a pedal from BarelyL4, arrived swiftly, great communication throughout. Thanks!

This is my EHX HOG and foot controller. It also comes with power supply and instructions. This pedal allows you to introduce a whole load of different harmonic octave goodness. It has some really cool settings on top of the octave options – I’ve used the freeze + gliss option a lot – it does what you think it will do morphs from one note to the next. Can get some ace organ sounds going on. The foot controller had 6 available banks to save our favourites, however bay 5 isn't working (could be an easy fix). There is a little rubber foot missing from one of the corners. I am selling an expression pedal listed separately that would also work well this pedal. Here’s The blurb: “The Electro-Harmonix HOG, or Harmonic Octave Generator, is a guitar synthesizer that gives you crazy octave-spanning goodness without needing pesky specific pickups. Just plug in and get artifact-free polyphonic tracking using ten different harmonic intervals, spanning from two suboctaves below your original pitch to up to four octaves above. You can even turn the HOG into a whammy pedal using its Pitch Bend mode, or plug in the footswitch to change between presets quickly. Super versatile and boasting enormous range and versatility, the Electro-Harmonix HOG is one guitar synthesizer you don't want to miss out on.” Here’s a link to the HOG on the EHX site: http://www.ehx.com/products/hog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_G1JrFccFg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PHfsbPJSNM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XS3YUmOHVc £200 inc postage

EHX Hog on Bass - anyone use one/thoughts/experience

[quote name='Left Foot' timestamp='1494948439' post='3299881'] I use it and I love it. Acknowledging the demand on pedal board real estate this is probably my favourite pedal even with the Expression pedal and patch switch - is essential. very transparent, all the range you'd want and great tracking, very sweet filter and few other effects that complement the main functions well - mod/freeze. I'll try get a vid done but it'll not be soon as I've got a few canvases drying out in the man cave. [/quote] Cheers, there are a few vids out there but not many. -
Hi, I've seen a few vids on these being used on bass. Looks pretty cool for adding some synth padding. Anyone any experience with it? Is it easy to use in a live situation? Recommended? Better alternatives? Do you need the additional controller? Do you need the expression pedal? Cheers

[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1494492338' post='3296400'] I preferred the sound of the S112, that's right. The 1126 was more powerful, with lots of bottom end. My plan then was to just have the two 1126 and nothing else. But I didn't gel with them. Same with a pair of BF BB2 cabs. The S112 cabs are much more my thing. They just don't get as loud or as deep as the 1126 or BB2... but it turns out it's not really much of a problem. As a one cab solution the 1126 works, while the S112 does not (for me). I need both together, unless it's just as a stage monitor. A one cab solution would be the Two10 for me. However two S112 cabs are still very compact and so light and easy to transport... I got the Two10 as I was curious about going to a 2x Two10 configuration for those times when I need more than what the two S112 can give me, and the sound of the Two10 is very pleasant. So I generally take a single Two10 as a stage monitor because it works better than a single S112 (but not as good as two S112)... but that's because, as someone pointed out, I'm greedy and I like to keep a pair of S112 and a pair of Two10 [/quote] Brilliant explanation again. Cheers Tony

[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1494362750' post='3295430'] Glad to be of some use [/quote] Without derailing this post, I noticed from another thread you did have a couple of 1126's. Didn't this offer similar flexibility? As a one cab solution would the 1126 fair better than the S112? I presume you sold the 1126's because you preferred the tone of S112's? Cheers in advance.

[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1494333796' post='3295035'] My impression so far is that the S112 and the Two10 belong to the same 'family of sound'. They are different but not hugely. The Two10 has a bigger bottom end but it remains tight, and the S112 has very sweet low midrange with less bass... but with a small EQ adjustment you get very close to one or the other. Since I got the Two10, I never use a single S112 as a monitor, because it is only a little heavier/bigger (not enough to make any significant difference to my travel/stage arrangements) and I find I can get the same kind of sound, but I never feel I'm pushing it too hard. For small bar gigs without PA support, I would often take a single Two10 because it's convenient to carry just one box, and it's loud enough and with sufficient bottom end. I would generally prefer two S112 because I prefer their sound slightly over the Two10 (and two S112 have a noticeable bigger bottom than a single one, so it covers the bottom as well as a Two10)... so if is not a hassle to carry two boxes rather than one, I'll use two S112... if not a single Two10 is ok. Small bar gigs without PA support, where bringing two boxes is not a problem... then it's two S112. For bigger places or outdoors without PA support, I'd use two Two10 cabs, because that gets louder and deeper and I won't find myself wanting. But it depends on how loud you need to be. As I said, my ska/reggae band on Sunday did very well with two S112 in a beer garden - but it wasn't a very large beer garden or very loud. If you already have a S112, I'd get a second one. I like their sound a bit better than a single Two10, and there's no shortage of bass. If you like the sound of your S112, and would like a bit more of the same with a little extra low end, then get a second S112. [/quote] Appreciate your time and expertise on this. Pretty much covered what was going around in my head. :-)

I have one TKS S112 and it sounds lovely. Haven't used it in a live gig situation yet, but have been pondering adding a second cab for flexibility. I'll be playing mainly pubs and clubs, got a festival coming up but would have PA and monitor support for that. So hoping I may get by? Or do I pull the trigger on another cab?
