Ever wanted to create your very own custom effects unit/pedal but didn’t know where to start? Let’s learn how to audio program with the Daisy Pod! With Pod, we can audio program without diving deep into electronics. It’s much better to learn one thing at a time especially in the beginning!!

You can purchase Daisy Pod at: electro-smith.com/daisy/pod
