TL;DR If you were designing a chorus/reverb/trem combo pedal with a footswitch for each effect, how would you do it?
I’m trying to design a pedal that runs reverb, chorus, and tremolo on three separate foot switches, and wondered if the FV-1 format could do all three at once instead of doing discrete circuits for each effect and chaining them together.
I built the VHS and wired the 3 effects to foot switches instead of toggles and that’s what got me wondering; from the schematic it looks like the boost is an analog tl072 affair while the chorus and reverb are both being run off the FV-1, but it’s not clear to me how the chorus and reverb effects are being treated, as separate eeprom patches or a single one?
Is it running a single algorithm with chorus and reverb in it that you can switch in/out level knobs for each effect, or is it running two separate algorithms at once? If it’s running two at once, what is the eeprom/fv-1 program running limit and could you run 3 at once?
