Hi,
i'm kinda sorta in a way planning to build my own effects box. And i'm looking
around for embedded boards + cpu's + fpu's which would have the required
performance to be able to run some "simple" effects like FreeVerb, some
compressor etc (of course with low latency of 16 frames/perdiod or
something)..
Any hints/suggestions?
Regards,
Flo
P.S.: I was looking at this baby:
http://www.glomationinc.com/product_9302E.html
For 65$ (ca. 50 euros) it looks lie a bargain, but it seems its FPU is
supported by gcc only with a patch. And i'm also not sure how much processing
power this MaverickCrunch has [FLOP numbers are hard to find]..
Interesting subject, how would you get the audio in/out of the board,
usb soundcard?
As for processing power I'd guess the integer performance should be
fairly good, perhaps the added milage of the MaverickCrunch, whatever
that is, might not be crucial.
Any thoughts?
