A project log for Cortex Guitar Board

Audio DSP board based on a Cortex-M4 microcontroller for experimenting with things like guitar effects and sound synthesis.

I sent off the Gerber files for the rev.B iteration of the board to production yesterday. This second revision contains basically the same parts, but the placement and routing has been refactored and I've added more test points and stuff.

This time I'm using ITEAD studio (itead.cc) for making PCB prototypes — the rev.A PCB run was made by OSH Park. OSH Park's PCBs are really beautiful and manufactured to a very high standard and the delivery time is not atrociously long. ITEAD studio is none of the above, but quite a bit cheaper for non-tiny boards if I'm actually going to use all the 12 that they promise to produce.

So I guess I'll have something to do this Christmas.
