Filter Question:
To make a 12 dB/octave filter instead of 6 dB/octave filter, I would layer the same filter again to expand the range.
Start Contemplating Final Project:
I think it would be fun to build some sort of guitar pedal that I would be able to keep using after the class ends. I would like to do a spring reverb, gain, and maybe overdrive. I think it would be interesting to not only build this but also learn how pedals today work versus how we build things in class. I am also interested in synthesizers and being able to get specific tones to trigger when you hit certain buttons. And learning how store-bought synthesizers work (digital vs analog).
