PARASIT STUDIO 8-BITAR Build Document

8-BITAR

Build Document last updated march 2018

for PCB version 1.0

The 8-Bitar (Åtta bitar) is a minimalistic octave down pedal.

It does one octave down and has a glitchy and gated sound

reminiscent of the 8-bit era of videogaming. It's a very simple one-

knob design – a perfect build for a beginner or fans of small simple

circuits.

Have fun building!

PCB dimensions: 28mm x 37.5mm
