As a harmonic pixelator, it digitizes your guitar's tone into something that can either be incredibly subtle to something so unrecognizable you might wonder where it's even coming from - and that's the beauty of it: you have a lot to play with. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eThe Volume and Gain controls are self-explanatory. Sample Rate allows you to harmonize with the effect itself, as well as do anything \u003cem\u003ebut\u003c\/em\u003e harmonize. And the Resolution knob controls the focus of the pedal, specifically how much break in the signal you want. The pedal also has a Hi\/Lo switch so you can operate the effect in two individual frequencies for even greater variability in effect. For a truly unique sound and an analog bit-crusher (an effect that's technically not possible), the \u003cstrong\u003eCatalinbread Heliotrope Harmonic Pixelator\u003c\/strong\u003e is worth toying around with, especially for players looking to \"weirden\" up their tone. Go on, try not to play the five-note \u003cem\u003eClose Encounters of the Third Kind\u003c\/em\u003e motif. We dare you.
