    Just got a Switchblade Pro yesterday and am loving it. Just curious though: how much of it is digital? Is the audio path completely analog?

    I opened it up and can see some digital-looking components, and the manual says that it has a 165ma current draw which seems fairly high and common for powering digital components. And of course there are all of the muting functions which it can be assigned, which I am assuming is done digitally. The block diagram looks like the audio path could be all-analog, assuming that the “switching circuitry” block and “mix” block are analog and not digital… kinda like how the Deluxe Memory Man with Tap Tempo is all analog but just controlled digitally. Is it safe to say that the Switchblade Pro is the same way?

    The signal path is fully analog. All of the switching is analog but is digitally controlled.

    Thanks! Love the ingenuity y’all put into your pedal designs. It’s really cool to see stuff that’s analog at heart but pushes the boundaries digitally. Thanks again for all that y’all do!
