The Design And Research of Guitar Effect Processor
ABSTRACT
With the development of technology, the Microprocessor Unit (MPU) and digital audio processing technology are introduced into the effector. Compared with the traditional effector, the new type of effector is quickly applied to various sound equipments with its intelligence, individuation, and hi-fi advantages, and it also take the fancy of the music lovers.
This thesis introduces a design of guitar effect processor which is based on TI TMS320VC5501 DSP. Hardware and software systems are separately introduced in this paper. For the hardware, the thesis mainly makes a detailed discussion of some hardware function models ,which including the interface circuits of DSP 、CODEC、MCU and etc, analog signal processing circuits,and human-machine interaction circuits. For the software, the thesis introduces the initialization of all kinds of chips and the workflow of system. At the same time, this design also introduces the several common effect algorithm in detail , such as vibrato、 delay 、 tremolo、 chorus、 flanger 、phase. The experiment proves that the digital effects of the effector based on the above system are well.
