Roger Mayer

Roger Mayer was an electrical engineer who developed several electric guitar effects, most notably the Octavia, and effects pedal which reproduced the input signal one octave higher, and mixes the two sounds with some added fuzz. The Effect was popularized by Jimi Hendrix, and can be heard during the solos on the song Purple Haze.
