Señor FPGA mt32-pi
mt32-pi es una emulación Raspberry Pi bare metal del popular dispositivo MIDI Roland MT32. Fue creado por d0pefish . ¡Muéstrale un poco de amor!
Características:
- Una interfaz simple para mt32-pi (sin botones ni perillas; use el OSD :)
- Incluye un soporte para montar en la caja de aluminio :)
- compatible con Pi Zero 2 W, 3A+, 3B y 4 (no incluido)
- Incluye cuña de PCB para usar con Pi Zero 2 W
- Incluye cable USB 3 A macho a USB 3 A macho revisado
- También funciona con el cable SNAX USB 3
- Se recomienda encarecidamente una fuente de alimentación mejorada
Instalación:
- Siga los pasos aquí: https://github.com/dwhinham/mt32-pi/wiki/MiSTer-FPGA%3A-Setup-and-usage
- mt32-pi.cfg
- Opción 1: descargar mi mt32-pi.cfg
- Opción 2: edite mt32-pi.cfg y configure:
- [audio]
- dispositivo_salida = i2s
- [control]
- esquema = ninguno
- señor = encendido
- [LCD]
- tipo = ssd1306_i2c
- altura = 64
- Cuando enciendas el mt32-pi, deberías ver una pantalla de presentación de MiSTer. De lo contrario, verifique el cable que conecta el mt32-pi al puerto de usuario.

It is undeniable that the Roland MT-32 is the gold standard for music synthesis when it comes to retro computing. But units were expensive back in the day, and now they're both expensive and rare. Thanks to the incredibly open and well-known Raspberry Pi platform, however, it's possible to get the sound that was meant to be heard without laying out a fortune in advance. Obviously it's not perfect, but for everyday retro use, it's brilliant. Bravo to Dale for bringing us this awe-inspiring piece of tech, and good luck to him in his further endeavors.
This is awesome. My primary use case was to experience the soundtrack of Castlevania on X68000 in its fullness. Is that overkill? Yeah, probably. Is it still awesome? Yeah, it's awesome. It sounds glorious.
Assembly isn't too bad. If you put together your own Mister you probably won't have any issue. If you havent assembled a stack like this you might be a little lost at first but it's inconsequential and simple to reassemble.
I put together this unit using a Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+. A 2024 board I assume, as it would not power the MT32 hat. It was pretty simple to fix. Per the instruction on the product page, you just need those two files replaced on your SD card. Simply Google the file names and download them from the GitHub repo. Fixed.
This thing is definitely a luxury item that gives your Mister setup a vague sense of completion. And it sounds good. Not necessary but worth it.
I used with a pi 3b. Set up was a breeze. So far I have only used it with x68000 core Cadtlevania game. Already feel like I got my moneys worth.
Delivery stuck at customs, then for unknown reason in some kind of “facility”… USPS sucks unfortunately. Mister Pi from China with cheapest delivery option travelled 10 days.
Honestly, this thing felt a little extra when I ordered it but, man, it’s so cool
