From the project

An digitally controlled hi fi preamplifier 🔈🎵

The module is the sole human interface to the preamp. It consists of 2 things:

- A high quality optical encoder for changing of the volume and input - A ring of NeoPixels as a visual indicator and to give feedback

Python module is here: code/modules/encoder_panel.py
