[PD] arduino question

Hi Patrick

If I understand correctly what you're trying to do, an Arduino on its own
is too slow. There's an audio shield you can get that will play samples,
but anything Pd-style you need something faster.

If you're using Pduino anyway, could you use the Arduino for control and
just run the audio on the computer?

cheers
