Moved the bells.cpp pulsar firmware to the daisy pod. I did
it to be able to work on the train (though I ended up staying home) more
easily, but it also made me question the utility of the modular rig, and
doing synthesis on micrcontrollers more generally for rain.
Plugging a lavaveler mic directly into the daisy pod is pretty neat, it’s nice to have the whole unit so self-contained. I sort of wish I could stream audio over USB and use the daisy as an audio interface. (Maybe it’s possible?)
Still, it’s becoming clearer I don’t really want to limit myself to the number of voices the daisy can support and I’ll probably go back to doing synthesis on the laptop.
Playing with the pod firmware also made it clear that simply streaming a delayed signal through the pulsar wavetables isn’t going to be enough. A sampling / looping frontend probably makes sense. A place to build up buffers that can be tapped for wavetables on demand. I’m not sure what the interface looks like. Something command-based maybe.
