Chase Bliss today introduced TEMPO – a free alternate firmware for their CHOMPI portable sampler that turns it into an intuitive groovebox.
Here’s what they have to say about it:
“The new TEMPO firmware will change your CHOMPI into an entirely new instrument. It’s an alternate imagining of what CHOMPI would be like as a groovebox – a syncable pattern-maker that is hands-on and as intuitive as possible.
And, importantly, it’s free.”
Pricing and Availability:
The TEMPO firmware is available now as a free download. The CHOMPI is available for $599 USD.
I am impressed that they released an alternative firmware rather than a new product. That’s a huge plus in my book! 🙂
