PRODUCT FUNCTIONS

Sound Controls

The pedal must have three separate controls for Volume, Tone and Gain. Volume adjusts the amplitude of the final pedal output, Tone adjusts the bass/treble balance and Gain adjusts the amount of distortion applied to the input sound.

Maximum Latency

When one of the controls is changed via the app, the pedal must respond to this change in less than 500ms.

FX-Bypass Switch

The pedal has a 3PDT(Three-Pole-Double-Throw) foot-switch which has “FX”
and “BYPASS” modes to route the signal through the distortion circuit(FX) or bypass it(BYPASS).

LEDs

FX-BYPASS LED: The pedal has a status LED to indicate whether the unit is in FX mode or BYPASS mode: the LED must be ON when in FX mode and OFF when in BYPASS mode.

Bluetooth LED: The pedal must have a Bluetooth status LED to indicate whether the unit is in pairing mode, or already paired. The led will blink when the device is in pairing mode with a period of 1 seconds, and it will stay ON when the device is successfully paired to the smartphone.

Anti Slip

The pedal must have anti-slip material on the bottom so that it doesn’t slip when the user presses on the foot-switch.

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Dimensions

The size of the pedal must be less than 150x100x50mm in all dimensions.

Weight

The device must weigh less than 600 grams (batteries excluded).

Ruggedness

The device must be able to endure the harsh settings of a live performance environment, and also being constantly pushed with foot. Therefore, it must be made of sturdy materials like hard plastic or aluminum.

POWER SUPPLY SPECIFICATIONS

Power Supply

The pedal will be powered with a 9V battery inside, as well as a 9V barrel jack DC adapter.

Power Limitations

The pedal must consume less than 50mA at this voltage, meaning less than 0.45W of power.

Battery Specifications

The pedal must work with a 9V rectangular battery (also known as PP3).

OPERATING CONDITIONS

Temperature

The device must continue operation on the temperature range 10-50 Celcius.

Humidity

The device must continue operation on a maximum relative humidity level of 70%.

Bluetooth Connectivity

The device relies on a smartphone with Bluetooth connectivity to work.
