Well, I will admit that (a) I have not heard of this project, and (b) they are very simiar. Both have audio I/O and MIDI I/O to a SomethingPi. The software I develop will probably be as compatible with a Raspberry Pi 2/3 as much as it will be on the OrangrPi for which it is built.
The three main differences that I can think of between PiSound and this project is (1) the form factor -- externally, MB-32 is designed to be in a nice case and emulate the appearance of an MT-32. The I/O ports are all on the back to support this form factor. I have a 3D prototype printer onboard to develop a case. (2) internally, it can/will connect to standard WaveTable header and can operate directly attached to a compatible sound card, and (3) it has an LCD and front panel controller that can be attached when used externally (and therefore emumates the front panel I/O of the MT-32) and used internally (theoretically possible to make a 5-1/4" bay I/O unit for LCD and buttons... I should look into getting the 3D printer to develop this too).
But otherwise, I will concede that basic functionality is the same between the two projects.
