The implementation currently provides these modes:

- Saw up: / / / / / / /
- Saw down: \ \ \ \ \ \ \
- Triangle: / \ / \ / \ /
- Sine: like triangle but curvier.
- Square: _ - _ - _ - _
- "Map of the Problematique" sequencer.
- Randomisers:
- Quantized to a musical mode e.g. Phrygian, Lydian...
- Unquantized, any pedal position. Bleep bloop.
- Unquantized, any pedal position, any patch.
- Chaos randomiser, applying any of the other modes randomly.
The implementation currently provides these modes:
- Active (LED blue): Ramp towards toe-down when active, ramp towards heel-down when inactive.
- Waves (LED white):
- Sine: ramp up and down following a nice smooth sine wave `/‾\_/‾\_`
- Sawtooth up: linear ramp up, immediate return to zero `//// `
- Sawtooth down: linear ramp down, immediate return to maximum `\\\\
- Triangle: linear ramp up and down `/\/\/`
- Sequencer (LED red):
- Square `_‾_‾`
- "Map of the Problemaque"
- Octaves `-2`, `-1`, `0`, `+1`, `+2`
- Random sequence
- Scale (LED yellow): Random pedal positions quantised to a musical mode (Phrygian, Lydian, etc)
- Random position (LED green): unquantised, random pedal positions.
- 'Chaos' (LED cyan): random selection from the above modes.

### Hardware

- Arduino Nano clone
- 3 momentary buttons
- One linear potentiometer
- MIDI port
- LED
- RGB LED
- A few resistors, wire, case, etc.

### Controls

**On/off**: activate the pedal.
**Modifier + On/off**: Toggle between momentary and latching activation. Default: momentary.
**Modifier + On/off**: Toggle between momentary and latching activation. Momentary/latching mode persists in EEPROM between sessions so you don't need to change it every time.

**Mode**: move to the next pedal mode.
**Modifier + Mode**: move to previous mode.
