Comment on I built a amp+cab+effects simulator for guitar on a Raspberry Pi 4Bparent

Thanks for sharing your setup, that sounds awesome! I'm curious, how is the latency? Also, how are you getting sound out of the compute stick?

At 48KHz the setup can sustain 128-entries buffers, or <3ms. Sound travels at about 1ft per sec, so this is the equivalent of hearing an amp that is <3 feet afar. I cannot perceive the latency. The AmPlug I/O has a 3.5mm headphones port.

That sounds very cool! Which compute stick do you have, the Intel Atom Z8350? Also, have you experimented with ways to change effects on the fly?

I used an STK2M364CC. CPU usage never seems to go above 50%. Control is still a pain, but one way to change effects on the fly is to use rtpMIDI and TouchDAW on a phone.

Right on, thanks for sharing your knowledge on this!
