ESP32-S3 A2-Full NAM pedalboard with direct SD-card NAM loading and a Gea-compiled native frontend
About the project
Firmware for a guitar pedalboard on ESP32-S3: runs full-size NAM A2 neural amp models in real time, acts as a USB host for an audio interface, and has a touchscreen UI compiled to native C++.
Useful for
- Build a standalone guitar rig with neural amp models and no computer
- Load your own .nam captures from microSD and play through them on the pedal
- Try the firmware in a browser via WebAssembly without buying hardware

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
