The title says it all... the Geiger Counter is by far one of the most versatile pedals I have ever come across. Explanation below:

The main settings include a pre-gain, tone control (with bypass switch), sample rate (resolution), bit depth (fidelity), and to make it even wilder, there are over 250 wavetables (the 2-digit display runs through hexadecimal 0-9/ A-E combinations, so the first digit is a "bank" and the second digit is one of 16 wavetables in that bank). Bit depth also has a "mask" switch which alters how the bit depth is "quantized" between values ranging from 0-255.

TL;DR the Geiger Counter boosts the signal with the gain and tone knobs with an analog circuit, then converts that into a digital signal. The wavetables are triggered by the frequency of the input, and these are where the tones are generated inside the microprocessor.

The digital wave is like a graph. The sample rate and bit depth knobs give you control over the x & y axis of your graphed signal. The sample rate is your x axis, and dropping it the creates that garbled radio effect. The bit depth is your y axis, and that creates another type of lo-fi sound as it is reduced.

Aliasing occurs when a complex wave is reduced in integrity and loses curvature, similar to when a curvy line is zoomed in on a screen and it's all crooked pixels instead of a smooth transition. A sine wave will become block-like, and resembles hills in Mario on an oscilloscope.

This is why bitcrushers/ decimators are used to generate that "chiptune" effect, the characteristic sound of 8-bit audio processors limited early video games to bursts of white noise and square waves for a majority of compositions. The Geiger Counter is basically a chiptune guitar pedal (with a wavetable for every Pokémon up until Gen 2). There is nothing else like this thing.
