The original 1982 Joes were a terrific example of this philosophy where an entire wave of figures was constructed from only a few basic body types and head molds. Recycling existing parts saves the manufacturer money while also offering up a greater variety of characters. Switching-type power supplies, daisy chains and non-pedal specific power supplies do not filter dirty power as well and let through unwanted noise.It seems inevitable that with any new series of GIJoe figures come various repaints and parts reuses.

Pedals will make extra noise if there is ripple or unclean power. They always recommend pedal-specific, transformer-isolated wall-wart power supplies or multiple isolated-output supplies.

Ripping sub-octave thump, pulsing octave down, a lightly squared base tone and a swelling transformer based octave up all join together to make a single guitar sound like an army of olde tyme synths. Its no-nonsense interface makes it easy to add or subtract octaves to create a wide variety of sounds without having to dial in envelopes or oscillators.

The Bit Commander is a monophonic analog guitar synthesizer with four octaves of vintage square wave synth tones.
