Chorus: common questions

What microcontroller does the Chorus use?

The Chorus is built around the ATTINY85-20PU, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Chorus PCB?

The Chorus measures 54.6 × 95.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Chorus?

70 components, from 45 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Chorus design files?

From the rabidaudio/effects repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Chorus design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with rabidaudio. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Chorus without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
