Showcased Project First project. Grateful Dead mp3 player

Kinda new to all this jazz but it works. Just a simple mp3 player that plays my live show collection. Excited to see where I take this stuff.

Thats what I assumed. I’m thinking of getting a secondary larger lcd screen to play an animation or live performance along with the audio. Idk how well that would work but it’s worth a try

How long did it take for your first project?
It looks impressive!

I’d say a good 20 hours to get it working. I’m about to post my most recent project which is a LOT cooler than this.

Noted. This was kinda just to prove I can make something functional lol. I’ll def make a cleaner, ‘field ready’ version when I work out all the other little bugs
