modules introduce digital noise to the GND rail 
   
keeping the common resistance as low as pos-

modules.
Avoid  feeding  very  quiet  signals  to  your  Ti-
miszoara and amplifying the output signal to 
compensate. Conversely, observe the adc clip 
indicator  to  avoid  overdriving  the  unit.  Use 
input  attenuators  to  adjust  the  signal’s  am-
plitude and keep in mind that some program 
algorithms  may  cause  internal  clipping.  In 
general, it is physically impossible to prevent 
distortion  when  a  loud  continuous  signal  is

FILE STRUCTURE & NAMING
You can use the factory card included with the 
module, or a different card to add more effect 
programs.  Remember  to  format  a  new  card

the  FV-1  chip  or designed  visually  using  the 
SpinCAD Designer, and they must be compiled

FACTORY PROGRAMS
Timiszoara comes  with  a  microSD card  hold-
ing factory  programs covering a wide range 
pitch  shifters,  distortions,  glitching,  and  stut-
tering. Many of these effects perform in stereo 
      
  
from utilizing most  of the resources for  a sin-
gle  signal  path.  In  such  a  case, the  program 
downmixes  the  stereo  signal  to  mono  before 
processing. Keep in mind that the total amount 
of memory in the FV-1 chip allows for only one
