any help would be great with this project.

hi people, i am currently copying this project and currently following it to a T.

i am having some problems and believe it could be with the code. was wondering if someone wouldnt mind taking a look and feeding back some input if possible.

i have broken the sections to make it easier to navigate.

The Line 6 pedal board - Practical UsagePractical Usage (part 1)

Line 6 Pedal Board: USB interface, with Arduino - Practical UsagePractical Usage (part 2)

Line 6 pedal board: Programming the Switches and LEDs - Practical UsagePractical Usage (part 3)

Line 6 pedal board: Programming the expression pedals - Practical UsagePractical Usage (part 4)

Line 6 pedal board: Re-using the main board - Practical UsagePractical Usage (part 5)

Line 6: Renaming it PU-1. - Practical UsagePractical Usage (part 6)

PU-1: Complete V 1.0 - Practical UsagePractical Usage (part 7)

each section is small just stupid its broken over a few sections.

like i said any help would deficatey be of a help.

thanks

Moderator edit: [code] ... [/code] tags added. (Nick Gammon)

The code is supposed to be inside the code tags.

You haven't said what the problem is.

Sorry I'm still learning where everything is

My problem is that the switches do not do anything and neither do thief LEDs.

And also the led segment just flashes random displays

Cheers
