In my last post<\/a>, I mentioned that I had a good idea shortly after declaring “no new projects for a little while.”<\/p>\n

Doesn’t mean I can’t talk about it. And hey, maybe one of you readers will take up the torch and design the schematic, PCB and\/or firmware for me, so that when I clear my project backlog, it’s ready to go!<\/p>\n

I’ve gotten really interested in the Spin Semiconductor FV-1<\/a> effects processor IC. It’s got built-in ADCs and DACs (so it’s a one-chip solution unlike some others), and if I’m reading the information on the web correctly, they almost seem to be encouraging the equivalent of a ‘clock bend’<\/a>. I’m sort of curious as to how slowly it can be clocked – their examples don’t go below 20 kHz, but I wonder how lo-fi one could get it. I should ask on the messageboard…<\/p>\n

Here’s kind of the feature set I was imagining:<\/p>\n
