The MFOS Sub-Commander Guitar Synth buffers your guitar's signal, creates a pulse waveform (at the same frequency as the guitar) divides it's frequency in half (sub-octave generator) and generates a gate when you pluck a string so you can control the SUB-COMMANDER's AR generators. It permits you to mix the sub-octave, original signal and pulse signal and then route them through the SUB-COMMANDER's VCF and VCA. By doing this you can generate some very cool synthesizer-like sounds and effects for your electric guitar. (Some sound samples are available below.)
This is not to be compared with units that require a hex pickup and special processing to drive frequency to voltage convertors or MIDI controllers.
