Hi,
first of all apologies for grammatical errors , english is not my first language .
I wanna make loop pedal for guitar. For all of those who don't know what that is , basicly, it is just a pedal that records signal from guitar and then "replays" it over and over again, while I ( or anybody else ) play over that.
So it goes : guitar ---> loop pedal ----> guitar amp
Basicly for this pedal I would be happy if I could just make it work, 20 seconds of recording would be more than enough, and I don't expect extraordinary sound quality.
So I have 2 major question for now, since I have never done something like this and is beyond my level.
1. First I need A/D converter to convert analog guitar signal into digital right ? Which one should I use, and why ?
2. What can I use as a "heart" of pedal. This signal that A/D converter will convert needs to be saved somewhere and then played again. What IC or microcontroller can do that ?
Hope I am not asking too much.
Thanks in advance,
gilley.
