A guitar loop pedal that records short passages played on an instrument and plays them back in a repeating loop.

It is analog! The signal-to-noise ratio is not that good, but the sound is thicker than any digital alternative can provide.

The only pedal on market that uses similar technology is Zvex Lo-Fi Loop Junky.

These are diy projects our looper is based upon: Madbean Loophole and Dean Hazelwnter's Mobius Trip Looper.

The circuit is based on ISD1020 chip.
​
The supplier for these analog recording chips is a company called Nuvoton. According to their datasheets, the chips use some kind of patented flash memory that can store sound without digital conversion.

The recording time is 20 sec.
​No multiple loops available.

The controls are:​
1) Rec knob – recording volume;
​2) Play knob – playback volume;
​3) Dry knob – volume of the instrument that is played over a recorded loop;
​4) Two footswitches – one for recording, one for playback;
​5) Internal trimpot - controls a low pass filter that filters out some of the unwanted noise.
