Thanks for the info on using the Pi as an access point; that sound awesome! I'd really appreciate a rough estimate of the latency one would get when sending UDP between the Pi and a laptop with this WiFi setup.
I'd love to build some kind of foot controller using the Raspberry Pi, but I wonder if the delay would be negligible enough for a looper (control from Pi, audio processing on laptop).
My guess is on the order of 3ms to 20ms, although UDP is unreliable in that packets can sometimes bunch/flood through etc. Best thing to do would be to test it and see how you go. Or just use a wired foot controller.
