Hi! This is an LCD display with four lines of 80 characters. The lines running in parallel and independent. Like displays are used in many devices (such as Arduino that has become fashionable in recent years).

Cool I like the sliding effect and the bus system behind. 😉 AM display does not uses bus instead. This is more customizable. 😇

Unfortunately both rely on a defined spacing and overall size. The best would be trying to integrate my Active Matrix with this, to have a customizable size and number of cells in properties: Active Matrix

Yes. It can be done in several ways, depending of what expected to do. In fact they are devices that can play different animated sequences with different characters etc. In such situation, I believe that there must be three main parts; -a proper graphical interface, -a graphics engine, that processes the informations -and another device that builds sequences of informations. And it can be a gui. What do you think?

I was just thinking of a customizable number of cells, to let the SMer choose how much characters x line, even just that is a great work, ATM I don't have enough time to integrate the 2 OSMs, but it should be possible. Tossing the interaction part from mine and keeping the matrix automated drawing...

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
