[PD] UA-25 on RPI

[Dan Wilcox]

Yes. Ethernet turbo disabled and Ethernet disabled. Disabled cpu freq scaling. Pd set with realtime permissions:

sudo chmod 4755 /usr/bin/pd-extended
sudo chmod 4755 /usr/bin/pd

Setting dwc_otg.speed=1 dosen't work for this card and yields an unstable system.

This is pretty disappointing as my old setup was on an embedded 500Mhz Celeron with half the RAM and almost no video memory, yet (so far) was running Pd + alsa better than the superiorly specced PI. The main reason I'm not using the wearable anymore is it's just worn out and trying to fix flexxed pcbs and the resultant random glitches was getting old years ago.

Ideally, I want 2 in / 2 out and this audio interface has worked wonderfully with Linux on older/slower machines in the past. The RPI should have no problem spec-wise to run this with PD using only alsa ...
