Now I’m basically doing this as well: music and audio electronics. Although I have learned to play a musical instrument I’ve been somewhat fallow with it and so 2023 will be a more rigorous practice and exploring and playing with home made pedals and noisemakers. |

But, yeah, the practice thing has been so important. It’s a habit as much as a hobby now.
The music is better understood, and I just shoot for at least 10 mins a day. Usually do longer, sometimes miss days.
For the electronics I do a few things: collect and study schematics, draw and study circuits in LTSpice, and breadboard.
When I have something I like, I’ll do it in perfboard. I also design them in KiCAD, but haven’t ordered PCBs for a pedal yet.
Oh, this gadget is super handy for breadboarding: https://www.arcadiaelectronics.com/product-page/breadboard-p...
It’s so nice to get rid of the repetitive stuff. Saw it on a Wampler video, zoomed in and bought. Wish the alternate power was 4.5V vs 5V to avoid having to cookie cutter the voltage divider but whatever.
