What is new
- Scintilla as its 0.3 (scintilla-fm1 0.3.1, its engine): the Laser Harp without its click, the ring modulator and cross-mod read from the Synthex's voice-board schematic, one LFO per layer, and the forty ROM presets closer to a recording of the real instrument (preset by preset). Striking 8-note chords, its worst block is 32 % of a core with the voices on both cores.
- Newer FM-1s. Units sold since autumn 2026 carry another flash chip (0xB36014). fm1-dock accepts it now, as Dinghy 0.5 does: before, such a unit kept its saves in RAM only. Tested in the emulator, not yet on such a unit.
- The SMK-37's own controls: a module that asks gets the SMK-37's buttons; Scintilla takes them, names the knobs K5..K8 in its editor, and the outer keys go on from its octave.
- OPTIONS > ABOUT, and INFO over USB: the build, the board, the flash chip, the room left for add-ons.
- The player's guide: switching synths, every control of the FM-1 and the SMK-37, OPTIONS, each synth's first 30 seconds.
- A DAP debug adapter for fm1-dock, with VS Code, IntelliJ and Neovim setup (by DimmKirr).
