nasa attribute diy?

Post by spacefuzz »

Is there a schematic for the nasa attribute pedal online anywhere? Or a schematic for a pedal that does the same kind of effect? I want arpeggios, but I want to make it myself and put it in a giant box and make it look crazy with funky graphics.

I believe he's going to put some kits together sometime...he's studious though so somethings take a bit.

ya sorry shit is crazy on my end so im still finishing up the second program for the kit launch but neither are arps.

the release i did was actually of 'rev b' say of the attribute. originally i just had an mcu interfacing with the holtek chip used in the dba robot and other robotic shifters. I haev the pcbs actually for it but i never did a production run because the results were way better just rolling my own shifting algorithm on even the shittiest mcu.

i will probably sell off the pcbs for the rev a attibute based onteh holtek chip because i have verified the board and its pretty simple/ all through hole/etc.

right now shit is a bit busy cause i have 2 jobs and am trying to publish a few papers based on my research form the last 1.5 years at school. i hope to have the kits out asap since i have everythign ready to go parts wise but its long days at the moment.

anyways a schematic for the production run attribute wont help you much because its really the code in the mcu that is doing all the work. the rest is pretty trivial.

if there is enough interest i will put something together.

so... pm or email me mtl.asm@gmail.com if you are interested andif i get maybe 5-6 people i will put instructions together. the kit will just be a document/build guide and every part you can't easily get from tayda/mammoth/etc. ie: pcb, encoder, programmed mcu, holtek chip.

Also understand that it's not the same as the production run version. There is no tap tempo, there is no 'hold' mode. Instead there is a sort of 'detune' knob. There are less sequences and less pitch shifting options, mainly because all the signal processing is done by the holtek8950. This is the same IC that is in the DBA robot. So that is the sort of sounds you can expect. But with more control over sequencing and access to what that chips spec sheet calls a 'vibrato' (not quite but sounds interesting none the less).

i would say medium complexity build and the pcb is verified. All through hole, ~40 parts.
