"Buy a Moogerfooger instead."

Feature:
There is essentially nothing much this pedal can do as far as "synth" sounds go, except for percussive synth sounds. It does those very well, but other than that, you've got nothing.

Quality:
I bought this after I bought the Electro Harmonix POG. The POG was so good, I thought I should buy this as well, but it was a mistake. The quality of this pedal is nowhere near the excellence of the POG. The tracking is absolutely awful. You can't play a chord on any of the settings except for the clean guitar signal. On the other settings, it's essentially just distortion.

Value:
This pedal is not worth the money at all. It should be 70-100 dollars cheaper. Pretty useless.

Desirability:
It looks cool. That's pretty much it.

Sound:
Really ugly tone on pretty much any setting. I tried playing with it for weeks to try and find some sort of acceptable setting. Never found it.

Ease of Use:
Easy to use. Manual is quite clear. Takes some patience to understand.

Support:
Didn't have to deal with them.

Overall:
I am returning this pedal for a Moogerfooger, which is far more able to produce the kind of synth sounds I'm looking for. If you are looking for legit synth-like sounds to make with a guitar, this is absolutely not the answer. Go with Moog.

"Great pedal"

Overall:
This pedal is an absolute necessity for guitarists who want their style to take the shape of modern players like John Scofield. The possibilities are endless, and it's very fun creating your own synths.

Analog Synth for Guitar
From the classic vintage sounds of the great early Moog(tm) synthesizer to wild custom creations, the Micro Synthesizer for Guitar lets the player create those fat analog synthesizer sounds heard on records by everyone from George Clinton to the Police to the Chemical Brothers. The compact layout of 10 slider controls lets the sonically adventurous guitarist dial in a virtually limitless array of analog synthesizer sounds.
