    Hi, I made a synth using a Pi3 and SunVox, would be nice to have time to code something unique in Monkey for it next.

    neat project!  Where from and how much was the controller?  And, how’s the latency?  I know there are more dedicated kits for rolling your own MIDI controllers and synths but I’m curious if this would be a good starter to patch in a daughterboard (with a dedicated synth chip on it) via GPIO or if rpi is not suitable for this task.  Tons of fun possibilities though 🙂

    Whoah! That looks incredible! Can you control Sunvox Ok without a keyboard And mouse?

    Thanks, I got the controller on eBay from China, it was about £45 and is velocity sensitive, the latency is surprisingly low with a pi3 and the IQaudio soundcard (you have to tweak the raspbian install) and yes you could use the GPIO to add another synth board that would be cool!

    The SunVox interface works fine with the touchscreen, but you can just plug in a wireless keyboard/trackpad if needed.
