#236 AudioDSP/Boost

AudioDSP boost effect based on the pedalSHIELD.

waveform

Notes

Boost.ino is a simple clean boost/volume control example from the pedalSHIELD examples. The pushbuttons control the output volume up and down.

Core algorithm:

  • the main loop sets the effect on/off indicator (LED on pin 13)
  • input read/output write is handled in the Timer 1 interrupt service routine

AudioDspDriver Library

This example uses a private AudioDspDriver library that contains my refactoring of the core algorithms for driving the board. I may split this out as a stand-alone library at some point.

This page is a web-friendly rendering of my project notes shared in the LEAP GitHub repository.

LEAP is just my personal collection of projects. Two main themes have emerged in recent years, sometimes combined:

  • electronics - usually involving an Arduino or other microprocessor in one way or another. Some are full-blown projects, while many are trivial breadboard experiments, intended to learn and explore something interesting
  • scale modelling - I caught the bug after deciding to build a Harrier during covid to demonstrate an electronic jet engine simulation. Let the fun begin..
To be honest, I haven't quite figured out if these two interests belong in the same GitHub repo or not. But for now - they are all here!

Projects are often inspired by things found wild on the net, or ideas from the many great electronics and scale modelling podcasts and YouTube channels. Feel free to borrow liberally, and if you spot any issues do let me know (or send a PR!). See the individual projects for credits where due.
