well, something like that raspberry or the beagleboard looks absolutely great, IF i can get one to run pd with just some really minimal patch.
the most important thing is low latency. i know how hard that is to get even on a 'proper' computer, so that's going to be the hard thing, yeah?
i don't mind if the device is a bit bigger. but you know...even these smart phones now can run pretty decent pd patches. surely there has to be some good option with dedicated audio in/out and low latency???
i can attempt a custom linux install even but i'd need some hand holding.

It's a current topic at the London hackspace. Im often thinking about new development boards that can run a decent guitar FX patch with usable latency on a playing card sized board costing less than a $50
Depends what you mean by mini devices though.
In theory a usable CPU only board would need USB, and a power supply, everything else, including LAN and audio can be added.
Most SBCs are actually very expensive dollar per cycle but there are some interesting possibilities

is there someone here doing pd on mini devices yet?
i want something with low latency, audio output at least, but audio
in/out
even better.. the ability to connect some sort of sensors or controllers (even really basic stuff)
basically, i want to put pd in a guitar pedal.
any help?
cheap would be best, but i have a small budget i could use if a good
option
is not bargain basement.
i must also mention that i'm really not good at soldering, and my coding ability in anything other than PD is pretty shocking.
what options are there? i have heard of beagle board, does that work?
