TenderSurrender Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Had an idea today and was wondering how easy it would be to... Install a series of LEDS (say 5?) that measures the output of the pups from the output jack? Its an idea basically since none of my guitars have "numbers" on the vol pots, and when playing live, i think itd be "cool" to have some lights telling you how much damn noise your making I suppose what im asking you guys for is a wiring diagram for a level meter but coming from the output jack! Also could someone then explain the diagram so i can actually understand it, i did GCSE Electronics... doesnt mean i did well in it Thanks in advance guys! ~~ TS ~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovekraft Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 LM3915 Dot/Bar Display Driver If the data sheet doesn't give you enough info, google LM3915 for more ideas. It works on a single supply down to about 3 volts, so even button cell batteries are an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
