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!
