From Alexander:

The Defender is a bold new take at digital drive combined with some really fun effects that compliment these outlandish drive sounds with features to match.  Forget digital emulation, forget the fact that on the "OD" setting the untrained ear may well think this is an analog drive.  This is not about competing with all of the best analog circuits for the natural beauty in drive sounds that they offer.  No no, this is a straight shot at some of the most raucous, overly manipulated, overly controllable digital drive techniques that people love to hate and will love to own even more.

Aside from varying degrees of digital gain (overdrive, distortion and fuzz) the Defender offers 3 fx settings that pair with the drive sounds perfectly.  Space (SPC) offers a very short delay time from 0 to 40 seconds which offers everything from barely there dimension to double-tracking to fast slapback.  Pitch (PIT) offers mixable octave down and up options.  Filter offers several parameters to surgically tamper with the eq profile to allow for all kinds of wah and synthlike sounds. 

All of these FX are commanded by the WARP footswitch which can "morph" between two different knob settings on command (creating new effects in itself like manual flange with the Space mode) and of course as a NEO series pedal, all settings can be assigned as presets and controlled via expression and MIDI.
