Have an old working akai MX73 keyboard controller which will be the case and keys for this project.
Several benefits.
First the top panel is hinged and easy to get inside.
second inside half of the inside is empty so lots of mounting space.
Third the controller has 3 midi outs so can internal wire one for the Zynthian.
So now my question
-
I would like to use a hdmi 7 inch 1024x600 display and not use the pitft. will the software still work and what change will I need to make to config files etc…
-
I know I will need to still install a 20 pin connector to the HiFIBerry but hope this gets rid of the ribbon cable and can attach encoders and midi out direct to 20 pin connector.
-
since I am not driving the pitft will I still need the 2in1 Module for encoders and midi?
Hope to start the build in the next couple of weeks. will update you with pics when done.
