- CHOMPI Open Source is a discontinuation release providing permanent access to source files and documentation.
- Users can clone the GitHub repo to customize, but no further updates will be made by Chase Bliss.
- Community discussion and sharing happen in the CHOMPI Open Source channel on the Chase Bliss Discord.
- A beta firmware called WAVE is included—an 8-voice wavetable synthesizer for CHOMPI.
- No customer support is provided for open source projects or third-party builds; use at your own risk.
- Available files include firmware (TAPE, TEMPO, WAVE), bootloader, card profiles, hardware PCB, and enclosure designs.
- Artwork and CHOMPI logos are excluded to avoid copyright/trademark issues; builders must rename their hardware.
- Existing CHOMPI owners continue to receive full support, including repairs and customer service.
