It's what I learned on, and there seems to be more info available out there about it (for now), but capacitive touch CYD would probably be better/more responsive. The resistive touch option seems to be a few dollars cheaper in general on Amazon.



No need to perpetuate any negativity, I can take it ;) constructive feedback is appreciated though!


I saw that one! Very impressive project with 3D printed parts. Here is that project for anyone interested: https://projecthub.arduino.cc/alex_chang/satellite-tracker-2...


Yup, that's all it is! Really simple beginner project, with room to grow on the hardware.


Definitely alot of directions you could go with it, looking forward to seeing what people do with the code!


WOW that is a cool shot, thanks for sharing!


That's really cool! Starred so I can find it later, might be challenging putting it on the esp32 but if there's an easy way to downsize the images then it should be do-able. Thanks!


A video about a fully open source guitar pedal with features similar to commercial high end digital effects. Discusses the project and demos various effects.


Flexibility and affordability. As a guitar player, if I walked into a room and on one side there’s a perfect digital emulation of a Marshall stack, and on the other side there’s and actual Marshall stack, I’d go for the real thing every time. But the reality for most musicians, myself included, is that I wouldn't be able to or wouldn’t be willing to pay that much for one. Now if I had a whole library of digital amps/pedals to try, then I could find something I like best and go get the real thing. I don’t see digital as replacing analog, only enhancing it. It’s also nice to be able to plug in headphones, and from a laptop or pedal that takes up much less space.

But as an engineer I just nerd out over all of it. Analog. Digital. If it makes good music it’s all cool to me.
