It takes in an input and based on your function which you switch on and off, transforms it (make my sound sound like flute, make my sound sound like chorus). I would love to visit this man's home as I hear Knuth has a killer home organ. Neat guys! Being a musician before hacker, I now feel less of a fraud. :)
