Impressive
Am I correct in that you have one vco that can be synced to the incoming 
guitar signal, no pitch to cv?
What is making the noises around 0:30 to about one minute in? Is that 
only guitar through the dividers? Tracking seems really good judging 
from those clips. I have been experimenting a bit with guitar through my 
semi modular by running the guitar signal through a 4024-based suboctave 
circuit but tracking isn't as good as yours. I get glitches and fast 
octave jumps when the note decays sometimes.

It certainly seems to have some possibilities beyond just being a good 
noisemaker like many of the semi diy lofi fuzzes and distortions out 
there (effector 13, 4ms pedals etc). I'd love to see some more info on it.
