The new PCB has an extra row of buttons for control functions, and (unlike the previous PCB) doesn’t have to be purpose built for a particular Groovesizer firmware. Instead, the hardware setup for a particular firmware is selectable via jumpers (top left).
I’ve started building one already as you can see – 82 resistors later… I’m documenting my progress on this one for building instructions. I’m hoping this board will be identical to the production boards (except that the real ones will be black and not green).
I’m about to send the second, improved (and hopefully final) prototype board off to be fabbed – fun times!
In this video, the Groovesizer is synced via MIDI clock to Reaper (playing the drum loop).

In the meantime, have a look at the original Groovesizer Arduino project and build one for yourself:
