From the project
Open source, analog and polyphonic synthesizer
We designed an optional, dedicated FX card based on the RP2350 microcontroller to handle digital effects. This board connects to the conductor board via a standard 2x5 pin header. Audio input and output data transfer relies on the I2S protocol, implemented utilizing the RP2350's Programmable I/O (PIO) blocks.
To accommodate different budgets and assembly constraints, the card supports three ADC and DAC configurations:
