Hi,

I was wondering where I would place an LED in this layout to become active with the delay time.

Are you saying that I put an abnormal brain into a seven and a half foot long, fifty-four inch wide GORILLA?

thats not an easy job..

it can be done but the circuit that gives a 'delay tempo led' is actually much bigger than the delay circuit....hmmm...



funny i was just trying something similar with the led lighting up with just the initial note + repeats.. ;)

Yeah, I saw a layout for PT2399 tap tempo daughter board and thought that I could place it in there somehow.  I have to look at the actual schematic to see the path.  I've seen something like it before, but I can't remember where.  Interesting research subject.
