Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

the ads should be clocked by an external (and may be variable) clock. So tthe sampling rate reducer isn't done into the atmega but directly at the ADC which save clock cycles for the µC.

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

I had a similar idea. Although I simply used a low pass filter for the tone control and some shift register via SPI to reduce pincount. I made mistakes in the op-amp input orientation but the idea remains. https://smokingtip.files.wordpress.com/2015/05/bit_crushed.png (too big for direct image into ...

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

There's some cheap (trough hole) SPI double DAC from microchip, really easy to use. Otherwise, if nasty 8bit is desired one can use a R2R (I had some bourns integrated one, very handy little thing no need to match resistors). But it requires a complete port, however a shift register can be used with...

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

very nice software ! maybe you could add fonction to "linearze" the waveforms and avoid distortion bit. But nonetheless very nice. would you share the code ? I don't know what JS is. Here's what I had in mind for the actual embedded solution : https://github.com/ThebigDickhead/AVR_PROG/blo...

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

while (true) { //repeat indefinitely int inValue = adcRead(); int outValue = wavetable[inValue]; dacWrite(outValue); delay(samplingPeriod); that must be it. I had a go few days ago, I inputed the guitar signal and the output via SPI DAC was very nasty (in a bad way). You've to love lo-fi stuff :lol...

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

Looks like the wave table simply defines the transfer function, though I don't know how it's actually implemented (lookup tables?). certainly look up table I think. Then it feeds the µC and it is combinated with the wawetables such as : There's no mixing of the DAC signal with the original signal ?...

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

all the interest for this is dead ?

can someone explain the relation between the wavetable and the incoming signal ?

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

any progress on this project ?

I myself played around with digital VCO and bitcrushing, sampling rate and internal modulation things with an AVR 8bit. Way too slow for serious work (unless one want somes nasty distortion/aliasing added to it) but can be really dirty and nice for noise thing.

Re: Quasi Filter Sample Hold design

why not using the original transistor noise generator as the Random generator ? works good !

IC3 and Q4.

As I see it, creating something similar with a simple power supply is quite doable.

Dunlop - TVP-1 Tremolo Volume

hi, is there someone with a bit of imformation about this TVP-1 ? I have to fix one (lfo isn't working, or the CMOS switching dead, don't know yet) but that thing is really complex. I'm in the process of tracing the schematic but it takes ages to do so. There're CMOS switch, Nor gate, JFET switching...

C'mon Mr Deville we know you want to reveal the secret ! :mrgreen:

by the way, you do a really cool work on your line of pedal. Really nice and original . You micro-controlled double switching system is really inspiring.

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

the pedal format is fixed ? I thought it could interesting to implant the circuit is a rack format case with a remote footswitch. And if storage I guess some would like footswitch to access patches ect...

actually pedal format isn't really that good with big circuit :mrgreen:

Arduino plateform is a good start for programming µC
yep , I'm waiting for an arduino board ordered last week. I started studying some exemple codes available.

Re: WMD Geiger Counter - [gut shots]

Acutally cloning isn't what I'm looking for. I just want to understand the concept and general layout.

I started getting into µC and it's always good to look at other's work to understand things.

Yo guys. I have a proposition for you. I have become decent at programming the FV-1 DSP chip. This kind of effect isn't that difficult with this sort of architecture. I am up to do some coding. This would not be a clone of the Geiger Counter, but it would be the only wavefolding digital distortion ...
