Thx to everybody for the suggestions. Indeed, on the DSP I can't use the network layer, so I will have to make the GUI (running on a PC) communicate with the engine (running on the DSP) through...the serial port maybe.

hmm, i wouldn't do that. i would make a patch on my pc (with pd-gui), but with careful design and crafty tricks i would make the patch non-interactive (so that it doesn't require a gui at all).

then i would load this patch on the dsp (without gui), and off you go.

as soon as you communicate between pd and pd-gui (in whatever protocol), you will need your dsp-cycles for gui-updates instead of dsp-stuff.
