Odd and even harmonics on separate knobs, so you can build the distortion you want rather than picking a preset flavour.
Even harmonics thicken and warm. Odd harmonics bite and cut. Most distortion gives you a fixed blend of the two and calls it a mode — here they're two controls, and the tone knob sits after them so you can shape what came out.
Runs at 4x oversampling so the harmonics you added stay where you put them instead of folding back down the spectrum.
