Another lovely contribution from Chris Stelloh! This layout VERIFIED by Chris himself so it is good to go. More info about this monster is avaiable HERE.
And I'm noticing that I left out the solder pad marking for the bypass LED+ on the lower drawing of just the board/cut/jumper layout... but otherwise, this is, in fact good to go. In accordance with Parasit's wishes, I am not going to sell the build I did of this... but I AM giving it away on my Instagram page!
Hey Ian! So I haven't purchased any ISD chips in probably over a year, but if I remember correctly - the last time I did, I just bought from an ebay seller, that I'm pretty sure was located in China. So far so good - all mine have been legit, but I do know for a fact that counterfeits of these exist - because Doug Tuttle of MidFi got burned with some fake ones a few years back.
That's awesome, Ian - this circuit is FAR from a usable looper-style effect but it is definitely cool sounding. The ISD chip certainly has its limitations but I'm still pretty amazed that it is possible to have a playback device that doesn't involve putting a small computer at your feet.

DeleteThanks Chris, are the REC and PLAY switches momentary. Thanks again
DeleteThey are! Regular old momentary, normally open SPST switches.Good luck, Ian!
DeleteCool, thanks Chris. Will defo build this
DeleteHey Chris, has you ever tried this Arduino guitar pedal - or anybody for that matter. It looks well interesting;

I think Electro Smash is no more as posts on their forum are a few years old but there is other stuff out there about Arduino pedals
Hey Chris, this layout is golden - many thanks!!! Shame there is a gap between repeats but its still pretty cool pedal, well worth building
