A collection of toy digital audio effect implementations (IIR filters, delay loops) written in C, created as a learning project alongside Linus Torvalds' guitar pedal hardware. It simulates single-sample, low-latency effects like phasers and echoes without any AI-based processing.
Use cases
- learn digital audio processing basics
- simulate guitar pedal effects in software
- experiment with IIR filters and delay lines
- prototype low-latency audio effects
- study how analog circuits map to digital filters
When to choose
- you want simple, readable C code for learning DSP fundamentals
- you need basic single-sample effects like phaser or echo without external dependencies
- you're exploring audio effects for embedded guitar pedal projects
When to avoid
- you need production-quality or AI-based amp/cab emulation
- you want FFT-based effects like vocoders or convolution reverb
- you need a polished audio framework with plugin support
