Rhodes Chroma Now Supports an External Alphanumeric Display

via the Rhodes Chroma list:
"Following up to the ChromaTalk discussion in April of this year ( http://www.rhodeschroma.com/?id=2010&month=04#speakingofmodifications ) we have created a firmware release to support an external display for the Rhodes Chroma/Rhodes Chroma Expander.

The hope is that easily understandable parameter data will allow a more fluid programming experience, and will make users more likely to modify existing patches, or to create new ones from scratch.

While there might eventually be a one-stop kit to add on the display, the initial addition of the capability is intended to be a 'do-it-yourself' project where interested users have the freedom to make up their own cables, decide their own display mounting locations and to choose their own display housings. (A picture of my display is attached).

The specific details of this feature are provided on the Rhodes Chroma site ( http://www.rhodeschroma.com/?id=cpuplusalphadisplay ).

Special thanks go to Tom Moravansky who generously volunteered his time to review test versions of the firmware. Tom provided specific text for the Patch and Algorithm screens and also provided valuable input concerning the usability of the data.

As with all updates, the changes are intended to benefit Chroma users as a whole. We hope that all comments, questions or change requests will be shared here with the group for discussion.

Best regards,

Sandro Sfregola & David Clarke"
