Description

The 5-Moons repository holds the Pure Data patch, the C code and ATmega164 firmware for the controller, and shell scripts for the disk mode and partition handling. The manual links the 5 Moons v1.0 image as the current OS release and notes that a larger card flashed with it gives a bigger recording partition.

Install notes

Write the image linked in the manual with balenaEtcher using the card slot on the rear panel. This erases the card, including recordings, so copy songs off in Disk Mode first.
