The 1985 Guitar Synth by Parasit Studio is an 8-bit sounding square wave fuzz pedal. It is based on the Attiny85 microcontroller and offers three different modes: octaves down, octaves up, and detuned. The octave down section is taken from the Bitbreaker Deluxe, but simplified to three settings instead of five. The octave up oscillator is based on a frequency counter, which creates glitchy sounds similar to a malfunctioning R2-D2.

In addition to these features, the 1985 Guitar Synth also has a hidden special feature. This feature can be activated at power up or by pressing the optional reset switch, but only if the octave switches are set in a certain position.
