Roland MT-32 Pi MIDI Module Complete! Adding the LCD & Front Panel Build it yourself

Finishing the Ultimate Roland MT-32 Pi MIDI Module – Front Panel & LCD Upgrade! In this follow-up to our MT-32 Pi MIDI module build, we’re completing the project by installing the front panel and LCD screen, giving our bulky MIDI beast a proper face! With this upgrade, the Roland MT-32 Pi not only sounds great—it looks the part too. We’ll walk through mounting the panel, wiring everything up, and getting the LCD display running with the Pi. If you're into retro gaming, synth music, or custom MIDI gear, this is the cherry on top of the build! 🎥 Missed Part 1? Watch it here: 👉 Part 1 – Building the Ultimate Roland MT-32 Pi MIDI Module!
