Electronics Projects
In continuation of my ECE degree at Ohio state, I started several electrical projects. The larger of them being guitar pedals. I initially started by breadboarding existing circuits, and then building them into a final product. I then continued to design my own circuits and modify existing ones. Circuits vary from simple op-amp distortions to a modified bucket-brigade chorus.

All of the completed pedal projects. Each had their own challenge and modifications. By far the most complex is the large blue one, which is a modified clone of a BOSS CE-2.
All were built with protoboard, and then hand soldered traces. PCB's would be preferable, but with the small volume of projects protoboard is the superior alternative.

After learning from a few existing circuits, I used reference documents and my existing knowledge to design my own circuit. I then implemented it in a layout and put it together to create a final product.
