DIY - DELAY Guitar Pedal with SAD1024 |
 |
|
I have some chips SAD1024 (analog delay line).
With these chips I would like to make myself a pedal DELAY for my guitar.
Someone let me know where I can purchase the Kit,
or where I can buy a PCB with schematic that use these chips?
thanks

Hi Synthones.
I found this article
Scroll down the page and there is a schematic.
I don't know of any ready-made PCBs, but another couple of useful sites for guitar fx diy are;
geofex and tonepad
hope this helps,
cheers,

| This chip is pretty rare these days so it might be tough to find a project for it with a PCB. The A/DA flanger used this chip at one time, so there are probably some clone projects for it out there somewhere. |

Hi numbertalk
Thanks for your infos.
Well, I hope to find a broken A/DA Flanger, also.
Otherwise, I hope to succeed in building a PCB or purchase it from someone who already built them.
Regards

Hi Stephen,
Yes, I think that the schematics are very interesting.
However, before building a new pedal I hope to find a PCB in kit or a broken pedal that use a SAD1024.
Thanks still for your contribution

SAD1024's are a poor choice for guitar delays.
I'd sell the 1024's and buy an MN3205. One MN3205 = four SAD1024's as far as delay time is concerned. Plus, there are pcb's available for 3205 based delay pedals. |

I'd hang on to the SAD1024s for flangers, no other BBD to touch them. |

That's why it's so sad to see them burnt up four at a time in old Memory Man pedals.
Save them for flangers or sell them to flanger builders. |

What characteristics make these SAD1024 BBDs better than any other BBD for flanging.. is it just that the shorter delay time is less useful as a delay? Or is there some real advantage specifically in using them for flanging?
Thanks for your time. |

They just sound so good to me, and do I think have a potential shorter delay time than other BBDs - especially when the clock is well buffered. I have heard a unit pushed into Thru Zero Flanging using just one SAD 1024 and a few tricks! |
