## Setup

### KiCad

1. Ensure this template folder is in your `KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR` path.

2. _Create new project from template_.

3. Select the _1590B - Mono I/O, no battery_ template from the _User Templates_ tab.

4. Decide on a name and path for the new project.

### Git

The following clean and smudge commands are used on project files, to ignore the "date modified" field in them.

```bash

git config --local filter.kicad_project.clean "sed -E 's/^update=.*$/update=Date/'"

git config --local filter.kicad_project.smudge cat

```

The next clean and smudge commands are used to ignore hidden flags in schematics.

```bash

git config --local filter.kicad_sch.clean "sed -E 's/#(PWR|FLG)[0-9]+/#\1?/'"

git config --local filter.kicad_sch.smudge cat

```

Add these commands to the local or global git config to allow the filters in `.gitconfig` to work properly.

Finally, clean up the `README.md` and files that weren't automatically renamed by KiCad, such as the graphics/plots.

## Schematic

Use the `Send` net label for effect input, and `Return` for effect output.
