Preview of Coverplayer (coming soon)

The new cover player is coming soon!

The time has come in 1-2 weeks. The Roonmatrix project will be extended by the Coverplayer.

This is a small stand-alone piece of hardware based on the Roonmatrix firmware.
It is essentially a CPU board with a color display and touch sensor.
The cover of the active music zone (music channel) can be displayed on it.
In addition to the cover, the artist, album name and title are also displayed at the bottom of the cover.

Tapping on the cover opens an overlay menu. You can select the active zone (channel) here.
You will also find the playback functions here: forward to the next track, track back, pause/play, random play and repeat.
The playback position and the total running time of the track are also displayed.

The best thing about it: it is relatively easy to set up. Much simpler than the Roonmatrix LED matrix.
Essentially, you need a CPU board, a color display, a micro SD card, and a case.

Here is a small preview (video):
