Description
The PT2399 has a lot of unique features. Its a digital delay that mimics analog delays quite well, giving a warm bassy filter to the overall delay repeats. This is no accident, as the PT2399 has a lot of high-frequency digital noise that has a way of getting into the audio path and is tamed through filtering courtesy of the on-chip op amps.
If you use the PT2399 Echo Applications Pin 6 resistor-potentiometer configuration, PT2399 boast of very low distortion.
Because the PT2399 is CMOS, interfacing with this circuit is very experimenter-friendly. CMOS is a technology of ICs that, simply put, plays nice with other CMOS device. Theyre often used for prototyping simple circuit in lieu of using a microcontroller. The familiar DIP packaging makes integrating it into through-hole designs an easy task. Be very careful handling your PT2399, as CMOS devices are prone to being damaged by static electricity.
The internal memory is limited to 44K, which overall limits the quality of the repeats at certain settings.
