What is this effect for?

Creates a monophonic pulse voice from the input pitch.

Try listening

Play a clean single note and start with full Blend. Compare Duty and Octave, then mix the guitar back in.

Things to watch

Chords are not tracked as separate voices. Duty changes pulse shape and timbre, rather than simply gain.

Open the definition on a control label to understand its function. The same label can mean different things in different effects. Compare the active and bypassed sound at similar levels.
