Arduino - Tap Tempo

This is a quick one I threw together as a proof-of-concept kind of experimenty thing to see if i could detect button tap durations, and maintain the tempo by blinking the LEDs.

This is going to be integrated into my light show sketch shortly.

cool project, I want to see your program.

As the description says, the program can be downloaded from the url provided.

It would be awesome to be able to couple this up to the USB input on the TC Electronics Flashback delay, and have a box that can tap-tempo two of the pedals at once!! Is there a way to find out if the TC unit will "listen" for tempo signals at the USB input????

this is so cool .......

can i just ask if you can post a video on how to make a HOME MADE TAP TEMPOfor boss dd5,,,,thnx

and GOD BLESS

what about it? those were there for other experimentation. :)

Hey, cool!

I recently stumbled over the Arduino here on youtube and was considering to get one for myself soon. And one of the first ideas i had, being a guitarist, was to make a TapTemp-Unit just like this! Thanks for sharing, man! Hmm... i dont know too much about all this, but i think, it would be possible to use the TAP-circuit and program you made and implement it into some smaller guitar-fx pedals, right...? Or at least to control already present pedals...

That's kinda like ***** cool!

ok, well in alot of microcontroller cases you can remove it from the pcb, but this is the arduino, and the board comes pre-made, it is soldered into the board so you cant remove it (unless you REALLY wanted to) exept for a power supply circut, most of the stuff on the board there is just for programming it through usb. if you knew the pin setup you can do it with just the chip. to program you use usb, this provides 5v to power the board. you can use 7 or more volts to power the board in non usb.

sick dude!
