Hello Friends,
today's video is about the Beepblaster 1.0, developed and send to me by Paddy aka. Ulfenknulfen. It is a tiny GM-compatible module based on the Atmel ATMEGA microcontroller. It generates sounds by PWM instead of wave samples which gives it a lovely and unique 22khz mono lo-fi sound.

Heres the Vogons thread if you want to join the discussion:

And here is the GIT-HUB project of Daniel Lehenbauer. His Arduino MIDI software is the basis of the Beepblaster's firmware, albeit it is heavily modified by Paddy to run on this module.
