Daisy and Bela are great for low-latency interactive audio :)
But I think Arduino is a good choice for this.
1. The microcontroller isn't generating audio onboard, it's driving solenoids to hit something. Arduino can do that — the solenoids have travel time but Bela wouldn't solve that.
2. This is more like a sequence playback machine, there's no continuous real-time interactivity. Play/pause is the main interaction and a few ms is ok.
(If you wanted to duet with it latency-free the top of the xylophone is completely exposed so you can just play it normally.)

Looks very interesting. I see Arduino is used here. Do you feel the latency?
You can have a look at Daisy and Bela as well :)
