Harry's Rant was: Guitar synths (Don's rant) is: everyone's rant

Eh, but what about, say, Bach? He managed to do quite a lot with _his_ feet. 
Also, having but one instrument with but one parameter to control with one's 
feet simply does not help at all. That aside, I'm thinking that a few stomp-able 
buttons and wah-style-whatever-the-variable-resistors-are-called arried on the 
floor about one's feet would very much alow a great deal of expression. 

That aside, has anyone any schematics for frequency-_doublers_? Blacet and paia 
offer their octave dividers, but that still leaves one an octagve below what one 
is playing.
