Awesome! Good to see another DM4400 resurrected! I did mine a few years back and used Flashcut. Had I known about Centroid then, I would have gone that route.
You will be happy to hear that an I/O Expansion module is planned for Acorn. It will then allow you to get the changer working again. I assume you left the stepper motor on the ATC? You could drive it with Acorn but lose the ability to have a 4th axis.
