Guitar pedals are extremely simple to breadboard if you know electronics. Drive is “just” one or many transistors amplifying the signal out of the guitar. I haven’t looked at what delay would take
I can make a circuit work sometimes but I don’t have the knowledge to debug my errors.
I have considered creating VST effects for DAWs. I’m better at software than electronics and I have started doing music production so that would be a better fit for me.
Yeah that’d be awesome! You can probably make some really cool sounds
I haven’t yet wanted to record anything I cared about so not tried to learn any DAWs yet
I suggest trying it out, it’s fun and the plugins and DAWs are like cool toys. I don’t record my guitar work, but make ambient songs and whatever else I want to experiment with like beats and effects. You can get started with free/cheap versions of the software tools. I have published a few songs to streaming services and we’ll see how that goes.
Pedals, you say? I might have to look into that…

Delay looks hard. I’m starting to play with digital pedal stuff and that is just software, so I may try that instead.
