Friendly PSA for #guitar|ists: You want to remove any 9V Batteries from your #GuitarPedal when you don't know when you're going to use them next.

Don't ask me how I know.

Oh, did I mention, that the said barrell jack is permanently glued in the least standard-compliant and serviceable way possible? Mwahaha! Also positive terminal on the outside, negative center!
Well, the last part is not my fault, it's the polarity of the thing, that my device was designed to power. It's a battery backpack for a Valeton GP-5 guitar/bass pedal.
And the glued jack thing is because I failed at measuring the thread. It was supposed to be screwed in.

News from #PédaleVite: I made some changes internally and I have now the ability to show signal-related information on the GUI.

So I added or improved the GUI of a few effects. Below, on the screenshots: the compressor, the adaptive noise gate and the multi-band noise gate. The latter has now an automatic calibration system, so by pressing a single button the noise is optimally eliminated. Much simpler to use!

Everything still works with PĂ©dale Vite v1 and its 128×64 1-bit display. A bit messy at such a low resolution and slow to refresh (forget PĂ©dale Vite v3 @ 60 fps) but perfectly usable.

#1m2labwidowmaker koodausvaiheessa.

Rautapuolella kovasti tapahtunut sitten viime postauksen:

- Rpi Zero 2W selkÀÀn wavesharen USB HUB hat, jossa USB-UART sovitin integroituna. Data liikkuu
#beagley-scarlett ja #1m2labwidowmaker vÀlillÀ USB-serial datana #DIY -protokollalla, jonka nimesin SATBUS -nimellÀ. Widowmakeriin on mahdollista USB:n kautta liittÀÀ satelliittipedaleja, jonka kautta sateliitit juttelevat widowmakerin kanssa, joka hoitaa puheen PiPedalin suuntaan. Widowmaker ottaa virtansa suoraan USB-B:n kautta scarletilta.

Widowmakerin nÀytöllÀ nÀkyy valittu preset, jota voi ohjata rotaryllÀ tai pipedalin kautta.

Pukkaan tÀstÀ repon, kun saan python -koodit jekkasemaan, vielÀ ois muutamia bugeja ratkottavana.

I just added a standard noise gate to my #PédaleVite #GuitarEffects. I already use a multi-band noise gate (called Noise Bleach) at input of the effect chain to selectively remove most of the noise without cutting the sound too early on long fading notes. But with a high gain distortion, this leaves some unwanted dirt after a chug.

So I added a second, more standard noise gate after a distortion, with the input as sidechain for volume analysis. Works well!

In the examples below (60 dB of distortion gain), I use a single coil pickup to collect some glorious digital noise from the computer and a bit of hum from a transformer nearby.

Aw man. I mean, loads of pros use it, so it's probably fine but that's a $1500 gamble.

I did multiple patterns for the 78, to emphasize the escalation through pattern complexity primarily (the voices cant be tweaked, only sculpted by outboard effects). The synths are used as a third party observer, trying to keep up but giving up before the end.

The Meris Polymoon is—by far—the best delay pedal I've ever come across, both sonically and in terms of feature set. Audio is absolutely pristine, the analog signal remains unaltered throughout, and as well as nailing basic tones there are no end to the creative possibilities. You can create presets, and you can run the whole thing via midi if you need to.
