[Blokas](https://blokas.io/), the team behind MODEP, have a official hat for the Raspberry Pi called the [PiSound](https://blokas.io/pisound/) if you are looking for a compact all in one solution to run MODEP, but I decided to build my own. [Blokas](https://blokas.io/), the team behind MODEP, have a official hat for the Raspberry Pi called the [PiSound](https://blokas.io/pisound/) if you are looking for a compact all in one solution to run MODEP, but I decided to build my own. Why? Because it's more fun that way.
My goal was to spend less than $300 dollars on the whole setup. Looking at the main parts I managed to stay within budget, however this does not account for some miscellaneous cabling and connectors, as well as a enclosure for the pedal. All in I did go over budget by about $50 but it was not necessary to complete the project, you will see why in the photos below. I already had a pedalboard and a spare Raspberry Pi so the biggest piece I needed was a audio interface. The parts list is below.
| Part | Cost | Link | - Pedaltrain Nano+
| --- | --- | --- | - Korg Pitchblack Advance
| Pedaltrain Nano+ | ~$80 | https://pedaltrain.com/products/pt-npl-sc | - Raspberry Pi 4 4gb model
| Korg Pitchblack Advance | ~$90 | https://www.korg.com/us/products/tuners/pitchblack_advance/ | - Behringer U-Phoria UM2
| Raspberry Pi 4 4gb model | ~$55 | https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/raspberry-pi-4-model-b/ | - Amazon Basics 1/4in patch cable.
| Behringer U-Phoria UM2 | ~$30 | https://www.behringer.com/product.html?modelCode=P0AVV |
| Total | ~$255 | |
As of writing, Raspberry Pis are still unobtainium, so the pricing there is subject to change.
If you are ok using 2 power bricks you can stop with the list above. One 5v brick to power the Pi and a 9v brick for any pedals. I wanted a more all in one solution so I also got a beefy 12v power brick and used a few voltage step down converters to power everything from one plug. However, that is totally optional.

### Conclusion ### Conclusion
Overall I'm very pleased with how this project came together. Putting all the numbers together, I definitely spent more than what I budgeted, but I did stay under what it would have cost to buy an off the shelf digital effects processor. It doesn't make me a better player but at least now I can sound cool when I miss notes. Overall I'm very pleased with how this project came together.
