Speaking of sensors and PD and microcontrollers...
Anyone around here have experience with the Atmel AVR? I've been using a PIC 18F, but have recently discovered that the AVR is supported by gcc, and am eager to leave assembler behind as much as possible. I'd be interested in anyone's general impressions, as well as experiences with interfacing to PD/other music languages. How is the AVR better/worse than PIC?
cant say if they are better or worse than the pic's, but as for the 18f series, there is upcomming support in sdcc: http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/
so far i have been able to compile some test stuff of my own, and it works nicely. since im going to use the 18f4550 (with full speed usb interface), i can say that this particular chip is supported in sdcc. from there, it shouldnt be hard to create code for the other 18f's as well.
Thanks, Ian
