Plasma effect running on Arduino with addressable leds inside a 3D printed sign looks so good 🤩

I’m trying something new. A small clock with some Ukrainian VFD tubes and neopixel LEDs. The display is working! 🤩 Now I cant decide which color looks best…

It’s still a little glitchy from time to time and the UI is not done yet but the new OPL Studio composer is awesome! 😎 Full drag and drop of sequences and song fragments is finally happening. lectronz.com/products/opl... #OPL2 #ymf262 #Adlib #MIDI #Lectronz

I'm happy to announce that I'm moving to @lectronz.com ! It's an absolute breath of fresh air to see all the flexibility they offer compared to the (sadly) horrible experience that @tindie.com has become. Expect all my projects to be up soon as well as shipping to outside Europe.

Some big updates for the OPL Studio media player are coming. I’m most excited about the analyzer where you can see the live register updates while a song is playing and extract an OPL channel to a patch in the patch editor so you can can play with the instruments of your favorite OPL2 music!

Ignore the very broken UI, but something really cool is coming to OPL Studio’s media player: grabbing #OPL2 and #OPL3 instrument patches directly from *.VGM and *.DRO music files.

The new front panels for #OPLStudio are ready. I think it looks better with the #OPL2 chip included in the graphic. #synth #synthesizer #fmsynth #OPL3 #YMF262
