There have been a few of these questions during the last months.So here is what you can do if you want to use a NoPe switch at the control outputs of an ES-8 or superswich or whatever unit is out there that hav 5V control signals to be programmed. Also if your control unit does […]

Due to the high demand from our customers we are currently working on a ready-to-use module to be used in any pedal either replacing an existing 3PDT switch or for your next new build. We are currently testing the latest prototype and when feedback is good we will immediately make it available to everyone. Its […]
I’ve been busy building prototypes, creating build instructions, sourcing parts and programming throughout the last weeks. Now i want you to see how a sandwich is done: How to make a sandwich This is not as funny as it sounds because its a major step to success. If you do something wrong it just […]
As said last time I’ve done new layouts for almost all PCBs because of the need to use a different processor. Also I did a lot of thinking about how the boards will be connected to switches, relays etc. A new connector and a distribution board has come out of this idea. New PCBs ! […]
Full Redesign As stated in the last post I started redesigning all boards to archieve the following: Able to use a microcontroller with more memory. They come in a larger package, so I had additional pins for: Rotary switch for editing system parameters the easy way Additional I/O which I might use for adding an […]
Its been a long time since the last post but I’ve been working on it again in the last 3 months. Everything is tested but the MIDI part and everything works fine so far. Here is the current 20-loop prototype (backside): From top to down and left to right: OLED Display 128x64px Power distribution PCB […]
There is another project which closes the distance to the target line: The DIY-Metronome I started this more than a year ago and after programming this on a PIC development board while at the same time I was asking what people want out of such a project here http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=12399.0 So, after a lot of failed […]
So parts are comming in and PCBs arrived. Here is what comes from the fab: Which is the control boards: and the switching boards: Also the OLEDs got here. This is a comparison between the sizes. 0.39″ 7-Segment , 1.3″ OLED, 0.96″ OLED Ordered parts are here and I’ve […]
Since I have discontinued the PControl Looper I have received so many requests to as when the new PControl will be available that I cannot count them. Here is the documentation of the development of the new device and my thoughts – based on a lot of feedback and wishes I have received since I […]
