This public build has not been flashed or physically performance-tested. Previous 0.3.1 device tests do not establish hardware verification of this build. An external USB-MIDI host or computer bridge is required; a passive USB hub is insufficient. Other Launchpad models are not claimed compatible.
A real FM-1 display photograph is now included for the Firmware Hub submission. It shows development version 0.3.1 WEB, not the changed 0.3.2 public build. Independent project based on MYCELIUM, SLOOP and Felucca; GPL-3.0-only code with retained asset notices.

Getting started
From the project's README ("Current release status"):
The prepared test package is 0.3.2-public, product identity FM-1900.
SHA-256: 83b4a2ee4aa539c8946e8b9660a51b0bc6eff5abd1677fab0f3b55712429873e
The preceding 0.3.1 development version has documented transfer/reboot, version reporting, persistent show upload/readback and show-bank preservation. This public 0.3.2 build replaces private imported shows with original procedural loops and has not been installed on hardware. Host-side regression tests cover playback, mixing, effects and storage. These checks do not replace a full physical audio, visual and USB-host compatibility test. Treat the release as experimental, not a production-certified instrument.
