Taxi Dispatcher (Reverb & Delay) FV1 Modulation Build your own DIY Effect
The Taxi Dispatcher is a FV-1 based modulation kit. It combines two types of effect in one - Delay and Reverb. Its a really lush digital reverb with three controls which set the reverb options, simply named CTRL1, 2, 3. This approach allows the user to name them as they wish. There is also mix pot.
Therefore the Taxi Dispatcher is a very versatile, impressive DIY project. The Taxi Dispatcher kit is ideal for creating endless ambience, which doesnt become distorted. It can be in your face or subtle by using the mix pot to blend it in with your clean signal. It can cover long delay times or short slapback. The reverb and delay can be used alone, simply by turning one to zero and using the other although this thing really comes to life when both are used together to create layers of ambience.
Theres a 5 min video clip of me using this, starting with the basic controls through to all out trippy at the end. (its in the pictures above). The four pots control Clean Mix, Reverb Level, Delay Time and Repeats.Please note, the toggle switch does not do anything with the programme for this one and is therefore not included. There are two different difficulty levels, if you have experience soldering surface mount parts then this kit is fairly straight forwards. If you dont then the FV1 chip is a challenge.
The FV1 is a very expensive part itself, so you do not want to practice on it. You can add pre-soldering of the FV1 to your kit here, only available when shown as in stock though!
Soldered, tested and certified by our resident JP expert. Other than soldering the FV1 this kit is a through hole project, and it really isnt very difficult. The FV1 and EEPROM work togethe r, the EEPROM contains the individual programmes that the FV1 reads. So both are required to enable this project to work. Therefore the minimum option to choose is the PCB, EEPROM and FV1 option, should you not have any.When complete, the project is everything you could wish for in a top quality delay/reverb pedal. Its feature packed, versatile and enhances whatever you feed into it and adds various different tonal flavours to your mix.
The board is spaced for PCB mounted toggles and pots. It fits in one of our JP125B cases. These projects are as new to me, as they are to you. I will test all EEPROMs work before I send them to ensure accuracy with the progamming.
FV1's are already being cloned and fakes exist. Ours are from a legit source as you would expect. This is a tough kit, please read the build guide prior to ordering. This item is in the category "Musical Instruments & DJ Equipment\Guitars & Basses\Parts & Accessories\Effects Pedals\Multi-Effects".
