FPGA: Field Programmable Guitar Æffects
Created on 29 Oct 2021
Creating funky guitar noises... with a FPGA!
An electric guitar can have its sound be modulated using a guitar effects pedal. However, we aim to design an effects pedal with an FPGA, as it allows us to design a variety of unique effects. Plus we get to play around with a FPGA, which is cool.
