# dashersw/coyopedal > 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++. - Magnitude: 3.0 out of 10 — Steady - Stars: 74 total · +0 stars today, ≈ 24 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Hardware, IoT & robotics · Language: C++ · License: GPL-3.0 · Created: 2026-09-12 · Last push: 2026-09-24 - GitHub: https://github.com/dashersw/coyopedal · Homepage: https://coyopedal.playtaurus.com · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/dashersw/coyopedal ## 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 ## Why it’s here - 0 stars so far today, about 23 expected by the end of the day. The usual pace is 1 per day, so that's 16× as much. - Over the last two days the pace is 8× that of the previous week and a half. - The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip. - The repository is 16 days old and already has 74 stars. - Hacker News: “Guitar amp and effects pedal built on the Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-AMOLED-2.06” — 33 points, 2 days ago. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 1 - Issues and pull requests: 1 - Watchers: 4 - Average over the last week: 11 per day - Usual pace: 1 per day - Stars in the last hour (measured): 9 ## Stars per day, last 23 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-09-06 … 2026-09-28: 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 13, 6, 7, 8, 5, 1, 0, 35, 0 ## Hacker News - Guitar amp and effects pedal built on the Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-AMOLED-2.06 — 33 points, 11 comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49852600 ## Spotted in now - Spotted on Hacker News ## More in this category 1. **LuwuDynamics/xgoduck_hardware** — 3.5 · Cooling · Hardware, IoT & robotics · +0 stars today, ≈ 31 by evening Hardware for the XGO Duck bipedal duck robot on Arduino Uno Q: printable body parts, expansion board, bill of materials, and assembly guide.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/pollen-robotics/microduck.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
