The 8Bit Mixtape is a lo-fi 8Bit synthesizer based on the Arduino-compatible ATTINY85, featuring 2 Pots, 2 Buttons and 8 adressable RGB Neo-pixels. The key feature of the new 8Bit Mixtape is the easiness of uploading new codes using an audio communication protocol, means just playing a .wav sound file from your computer/smart phone (or walkman). A specific bootloader (TinyAudioBoot) has to be installed on the chip to be able to do so.

What is it?

Need to add some clear description here...

Renamed to 8Bit Mixtape NEO / Formerly known as 8bitMixTape-SoundProg2085

New Attiny85 based edition with Bootloader to program it via sound

Inspired by the bootloader for atmega by Christoph Haberer and other implementations by Fredrik...

Not found anything yet for attiny, except that's it's a bit more challenging to make bootloaders.

Can we maybe use the same bootloader to program via blinking lights?

Bootloader in progress

see devel repo here:

Uses of this AudioProg-Bootloader

For the tape

If we get an online platform many more people will be abel to re-program their tapes and share their codes on the web.
