New Kerberos 2 design

See the kicad directory for the current schematic and board. Here is a PDF export of the current schematic.

planned new features

  • Mirror MIDI-in to thru and out

  • USB MIDI device implementation

  • USB host implementation for connecting USB keyboards, if possible

  • SD-card for storing more programs and data
