[PD] best way of controlling 50 speakers with pd?

[Andy Farnell]

A question to consider; Do the channels need a high degree 
of phase stability?

Fernando is designing for a WFS system here. You may have more 
relaxed requirements for a theatre or installation multichannel
system not needing such a degree of correlation.
Using a very simliar approach with jack-udp, but with
asynchronous receivers, chained ethernet, using gumstick
or Raspberry Pi boards with cheap audio USB dongles.
