Title: New Meazzi Tape Echo Simulator
Post by: pedalhealer on July 02, 2018, 10:20:04 AM
New version of my Meazzi Tape Echo Simulator. The algorithm is same like the erlier version, but less noise and hum, massive circuit board and momentary footswitch with clickless relay true bypass.

Yes, but is it printed? Etched? Engraved?

looks great.
I'm curious how you reduced noise and hum. was it soft- or hardware you had to change?

I put the pots to the board, shorter signal paths, more and bigger power supply buffer caps etc.

I like it. I think it's a very versatile pedal, good factory preset in the FV-1 daugther board. More than 30 delay, one reverb and/or  tremolo. Mandatory for Shadows/Hank Marvin fans.  :)

wow beautiful!  it's using algorithms already programmed into the EEPROM on the FV-1 daughterboard?
