Most times we need small letters and very small letters for labeling the VSTs. But the commonly used letters are antialias, and does not look good on a small scale. I have created here a schematic that uses bitmaps instead of the usual fonts. About the operation does not give too many details. You will discover in time. Still have to say that the loading letters, one or two letters are not loaded on the first try, and must be repeated ( do not know why-maybe someone solve this problem).
I hope you enjoy!

a long time ago i tried to make a bitmap font file for synthmaker but never finished.
so thx a lot for sharing, i will have a look at your OSM right now 😀

If you want, you can change the LEDs with a different schematic that is more simple and can be used in other circumstances (schematics), such as in sequencers (without the letters to not affect the CPU).

I found a bug in the schematic, but can be removed easily. If after a preset change, there has been a saving (bitmap; png), you probably noticed that the new bitmap does not have the desired color. Simply put a wireless output modules, as these captures show, named 'recreate' .

Hi philter5! Did you find something in the OSM? What do you think about it in general? I made some changes in the schematic and a new set of letters. But any suggestions, comments from anyone? Nothing...?

Here is a new improved version ( I think).For proper functioning of the schematic, I added (in addition to existing files) four other files that are not displayed in slots. These files exist in each folder. For each type of letter, choose a suitable background (brightness and color) to your taste. You can use your (png) files, but that is not larger than 24x24 pixels. You can delete the old files that no longer fit.

SynthMaker can handle this.

Yes MyCo! You solved this very elegant. 🙂 But I thought to those who want the fonts in bitmap format. (stylized fonts in graphics programs and not to be installed).
