MT32-PI: Doomsday device?


video upload by Floyd Steinberg

"This week, let's build and take a look at the #MT32 PI, another 'bare metal' synthesizer running on #RaspberryPi. This is an emulator for the late #80s Roland MT-32 sound module, which was used by a lot of games for their sound track. The MT-32 PI can also load soundfonts, so you can use it as a ROMpler in your setup. Table of contents:
