Implementação e análise de um pedal de efeito para utilização em guitarras elétricas

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to assist professionals in the technical area of electrical and electronic engineering, as well as those who work in the areas of music and sound. The guitar effect pedal made from recyclable materials operates through stages, resulting in a distortion produced by the process of signal delineation, that is, it is a process in which the input signal is cut in its respective operating stages to to fit a specific waveform of a fuzz-like distortion. This type of distortion is created by taking the input signal through its first stage of operation and performing a soft cut called Soft Clipping and with the reuse of the Soft Clipping signal starts to perform a new cut in the signal in its second stage of operation leaving the signal with a stiffer cut being so called Hard Clipping thus creating the distortion effect of the fuzz type. The results of manufacturing the effect pedal with recyclable material add values related to environmental impacts and the acquisition of a low cost material. Finally, from the analysis proposed by this study it is possible to obtain and implement the distortion pedal system for guitars manufactured with recyclable materials, optimizing the use of its resources, as well as to expand the literature on the topic set forth in this study in Brazil.
