I was gonna do a microcontroller based true bypass looper, but I am unsure if it will be considered complex enough to count as a design project for school.
any ideas on what I can add to it to make it at least seem more complex? haha.
Flashing lights :P
...with PWM.
With pot-controlled speed, if your uC has onboard ADC.
...what would i do with PWM? Haha.
Keep the ideas coming guys!
Maybe I should build a multieffect box? Haha.

Make a LED fade in and out. See this example for Arduino: http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Fade
neat! I was actually thinking of using a PIC microcontroller, for what it's worth.
Make it have programmable presests instead of just being a straight looper. That adds a reasonable amount of extra complexity to the programming side of things.
^Yes, if I could do something like a Carl Martin Octaswitch, that would be awesome. But that seems like a HUGE amount of work haha. Mostly because it means I would have to figure out a way to set the presets by the user, no?
Someone suggested maybe putting in an EQ and having a switch switch between presets. I'm currently looking into how to work digipots. if i can make jump to a specific value, that would be cool.
Keep in mind, I'm not really a programmer, and also just an EE working on his bachelor's degree. Haha.
