Hi,

I wrote an e-mail to the guys who made the Satellite CCRMA image for the BB, asking about latency and quality of the built-in audio interface.
I didn't get a reply to any of these questions, so I guess i'll have to buy one and figure out myself.

One interesting news though is that they are preparing an image for the Raspberry Pi. It should be the first image for this machine optimized for audio, beside the Raspbian image recently tweaked by Miller Puckette.

And finally, just so you know : "I haven't published about it, but I can safely say that if you don't use the satellite CCRMA images, you will be sorry later on down the road. As far as I know, no one else is bothering to make good images." I'm not sure what to make of these statements ;)

Cheers,

Pierre.

I could be wrong, but I believe the Beagleboard is ARMv7 and the Pi is
ARM v6 - so BB could easily have twice the floating-point erformance of
Pi.  I'm not sure why and whether there would be any difference in Jack
for the two.  I believe (but am not sure at all) that BB doesn't have the
same USB problems the Pi has.  All in all it's still a very attractive
possibliity, perticularly since the Stanford people have tested and exercised
it thoroughly.

Yes, BB has a _LOT_ better performance than RasPi ..

Btw, if you want a cheaper board with BB like performance but RasPi like price, look at Cubieboard .. ( http://cubieboard.org/ )
