Hi everyone!
I'm new to this forum but have been using Teensy for some years now. I do a lot of experimenting with audiovisual live-shows and real-time audio analysis of synths to generate lighting effects. I have always been using Lightjams for this, but I want to build an embedded system with the assumption that I can reduce latency and make my system a bit more user friendly.
The general idea is that the code applies FFT (max 20 bins) over an audio input, does some simple math to make the signal more dynamic, and sends the data using OSC to my lighting software. By sending OSC to the Teensy I want to control a couple of parameters, like the dynamics multiplier and the OSC destination.
Now audio-quality isn't really important in this scenario. It just needs to be fast and have a good dynamic range. So I was wondering, is it better to use the audio-adapter or to connect a jack directly to pin A2 and A3 (with the recommended circuitry)?
And if anybody else has some tips for how I can reduce latency, they are most welcome every ms counts!
Thanks!
