Unit Synth is a unit specially designed for MIDI sound systems, built with the SAM2695 audio synthesizer. It receives standard MIDI signals via serial communication, thereby enabling a variety of audio synthesis and processing functions, covering audio synthesis, mixing, sound effect processing, and more. The unit supports configuration of multi-channel instrument sound source output and allows adjustment of parameters such as 4-band EQ and reverb. In addition, it is equipped with an NS4150B… (M5Stack U178)
