0415 Guitar Synth
Build Document last updated may 2020
for PCB version 2.0
The 0415 Guitar Synth is a fun a simple pedal that transforms the
signal into a square wave, up to four octaves apart: one or two
octaves up can be mixed with one or two octaves down for super
synthy sounds.
This circuit works best with high output pickups (although I had
decent results with single coils aswell). It is a gated circuit by
nature of the schmitt trigger that turns the signal into a
squarewave. If you are using single coils and need more sustain,
try a boost or compressor in front. To tighten up the octave
tracking, use your neck pickup with the tone rolled off.
Happy playing!

- Page 2 Update 2020-05-14 It's come to my attention that several people has been trouble getting the octave up switch working recently.

- Page 5 CV input (optional) The CV input lets you hook up an external Low Frequency Square Wave Oscillator (LFO) that will modulate the upper octave for crazy sounds. The CV input can also trigger the PLL chip synthesis, so you can use it as a noise maker without any guitar connected to the input.
