FV-1 Full 8 Slots FX

Published on Jul 17, 2014 mCKENIC

"Finally uploaded the 8 fx I want on the FV-1 board. Some nice FSU fx in a stand alone box :-)

It seems the standard on the Spin Semi Forum is Left in/Left out for mono effects, so I'll stick to that."

2nd test of the SpinSemi FV-1 DevBoard - Internet radio.

"Late night, blurry test of the FV-1 board with a random online radio show as input. I soldered some jacks and pots directly to the included fixtures - probably not a great idea as the pots I used caused strange behaviour :-)"

"Initial test of the SpinSemi FV-1 DevBoard as a stand alone Glitch FX box. It only bloomin works! More tests to follow :-)"

Created a new Spin Semi label. The first posts actually went up here and here.

Z-DSP Greenwood

"Greenwood random delay effect algo for the Spin Semi FV-1 - loaded on the Tiptop Audio Z-DSP.

1st Pot = LFO speed.
2nd Pot =Max delay time.
3rd Pot = Randomness.

I did nothing to edit the code - this is not my code please see the link below! Imna try optimize it for modular use eventually but it is fairly cool out of the gate!

From the Spin Semi website - user slacker posted the code. Thank You!!!

Spin Semiconductor FV-1

"From the mind of the inventor who has revolutionized the music industry more than once with groundbreaking companies like Alesis and MXR Innovations comes the Spin family of audio effects solutions. These new Audio Effects ICs have been designed instictively to raise the bar and lower the cost of integrated sound effects with the same attention to features and detail that has brought so many innovations to the audio industry over the last 25 years"

"The Spin Semiconductor FV-1 is a complete reverb solution in a single IC. With integrated stereo ADC and DACs, the FV-1 can be treated like any other analog component in your products signal path.
The FV-1 can access a total of 16 programs, 8 are built in to the internal ROM and the designer may elect to connect a serial EEPROM with 8 additional programs. By using an external EEPROM, the designer can distinguish his product from others by creating a custom program set without the need for a microprocessor in the system.
With 3 potentiometer inputs, programs may have real time variable parameters such as decay time in a reverb, rate and depth in a chorus or frequency in a filter. These inputs are available as coefficients to your program and may be used independently of each other.
The rich instruction set allows users to program effects of all kinds. With instructions like LOG and EXP, users can easily program audio expansion and compression routines. Integrated digital LFOs and ramp generators allow for programming chorus, flange and pitch shift."

Note there is also a mixer solution built around the FV-1.
