@xylf Can you list? You need to put this patch in the root folder of:
https://www.automatonism.com/the-software

Also be sure to install else library.
Help -> Find external (be patient Deken doesn't output statut (like success)

Fix a missing else/ but I hear only pulse...

@cfry What OS? Be sure to run pd in realtime (using the -rt flag). Do you have glitches with the simple Test audio from the menu (without the arduino patch open)? It might be related to your audio buffer.

@jancsika

Nice! Very nice.

@zigmhount My FX are both externals and abstractions, I am not using LV2 or ladspa plugins. Since you have a single core, I don't think you should use multiple instances of pd or [pd~]. I might be wrong.

@zigmhount The fact that this computer is a single core doesn't change much for pd (since it's single-thread process). I am running a similar setup (4 samples poly for a drumkit) using a low-latency setup with fx (delay, reverb, disto). I think everything that you need is doable with pd, but yes, you need some optimization (switch~) and monitor the cpu.

Be sure to start pd in realtime too (pd -rt -jack -channels 2 -mididev 1 -alsamidi)

Good luck

I still think that $600USD is expensive but I'm cheap I don't know about the commercial viability of a groovebox... but I will share 2 interesting products for inspiration.

ELK audio (low latency 1ms custom kernel) - not sure about the boot time - me I don't mind when I need to wait 40sec before making noise... It doesn't say PD on the website, but of course it would be possible. That's a commercial products AFAIK. https://elk.audio/audio-os/

@svanya I recall an object called [pipe] - not sure if it would help. That's a bit strange.
