Hi,
I'd like to try out programming a microcontroller, probably a Raspberry Pi Pico, and make an oscillator. I have done some programming before, but never any audio, so I would probably need a good resource or tutorial. Are there any good ones you can recommend? I'd need pointers on running it continuously, and using audio buffers to output to a DAC etc.

Preferably in C, Rust or C++, in that order.

If you have any tips in general on how I can do it, I would be very grateful. I'm fairly confident with the maths involved, and I use Matlab a bit for other uses.

I'd really like to have a playthrough with the dryleaf arts plus some kind of magic, both buffs and spells.

I guess Faith with flame art would be a solid choice, but I've already played that with a different weapon so if possible I would like to try something else.

Blood and arcane would be cool since the fists attack so quickly, but there are so few arcane spells?

Another idea I had was to have a staff in one hand and the arts in the other, and run a magic or cold build.

Has anyone done anything similar and has any ideas or inputs?

Hi,
I play on controller, and recently I've noticed that I can rarely steer fully to the left or to the right at somewhat higher speeds, as in the little red dot on the HUD never goes to the absolute end, it stops with a bit left to go.

However, when I watch the top replays, and Tidgney etc. it seems like they can get full steering even at higher speeds, is this because they use wheels, or have I messed up a setting somewhere? I have disabled all assists except ABS which is on normal.

It seems like most Gr3 cars that I've bought have very little tuning or parts to buy, which makes sense, but I've been driving the BRZ GT300 for a while now, to practice the daily B, and it actually has some parts available, like supercharger etc.

My question is basically how this works with the BOP, what happens if I change something with the car and the PP?

And the more important question, what is the meta? Do A+ players buy other parts or do they run their cars stock?

...Looking at the top replays on Monday when daily races swap, realize that I'm using the completely wrong gear in corners, try with the same gear and fail miserably.

Then race, and drive, and grind, and suddenly realize during a race that I now am using the same gears, albeit still a lot slower :)

Hi,
I haven't been a PC gamer for about 7 years, but have recently gotten very interested in it again. I mainly want to play Dota 2, which is mostly CPU intensive if I remember correctly. I think my old graphic card is decent, a GTX1080, but my other parts definitely needs upgrading, so CPU, motherboard and probably RAM.

What should I look for when it comes to these parts? Any budget friendly recommendations? Other than gaming, I will probably do some work with CAD programs on it, and might have two monitors in the future.

Hi,
I kind of remember that the Souls games were discounted and even bundled together in a very affordable package for PS5, but now when I checked, they all seem to be full price and I can find no bundles.

Was this bundle a thing or am I imagining things? I would love to play the games once more, but I'm not really ready to pay full price for games that I've already paid for.

If I'm actually remembering correctly, I'll wait until the bundle returns to play all games once more

Hi,
I'm starting a new faith-based playthrough, and these two are probably my favorite faith-fashion, so I'd love it if someone could help me get them this early on :)

Hi,
This feels like a very vague question and it's probably the basics of designing in general, but I still want some input.

I love design, but I have no formal training and I don't even do it often. When I was a kid, I always designed things, mainly by drawing imaginary cars, or building them in Lego.

With age, my interest in design went from cars towards graphic design, but it feels like all my sporadic work becomes more and more derivative of other work I see. I can find someones design or style, and absolutely love it, but I struggle at taking the parts that I like, and combining them with other things.

Right now, I'm in the process of designing the front panels for a couple of synthesizer modules I'm working on, and I have about 4 to 5 main inspirations, but I don't really know how to combine them or do something original? Would love any insights, tips or other ideas connected to this.

Hi,
I just finished a course at my uni where I learnt the basics of C and RISC-V Assembly, and now I want to branch out and try to put it to use.

My main interest and reason for learning programming, is to be able to make synthesizers, and maybe some guitar pedals, so naturally I need to learn some DSP.

Are there any good ways to start learning mainly synthesis with C, like how to program oscillators, filters etc. I wouldn't mind a very theory heavy book or something, I really want to learn this stuff.

ETA: I'm mainly interested in hardware, so Eurorack, embedded stuff etc. but VSTs are of course interesting as well!

Hi,
I'm laying out a PCB of the Buchla 258, and I would like to implement the waveform switch which requires a 3PDT. However, I can not find a sub mini 3PDT which is basically a requirement in my case, so I need to get creative.

I've read about these analog switch ICs, but it seems like they are limited when it comes to accepted voltages, and I'm not sure what voltages are around the resistors that are switched. One other solution I've found is a much more expensive switch IC called DG333, which can handle a lot more voltage.

Are there any good alternatives or substitutes to a 3PDT?

Hi,
I know that spring reverb tanks have a lot of specifications when it comes to input and output impedance, orientation etc. but something I've been wondering is if let's say I have a tank which has, let's say 100 ohms of input impedance, but the circuit I'm looking for uses a 1kohm impedance tank. Can I not just place a resistor in series to achieve 1kohm? The same question goes for the output impedance.

Hi,
I absolutely love pasta, it has always been my favorite food and I eat it about 5 times a week. I usually make different dishes where I almost always use either heavy cream, "regular" hard cheese, lots of oil (i.e. Aglio e olio) or parmesan to make creamy and rich sauces.

However, it pains me to admit but I've been becoming a bit too heavy for my own good, and I need to start cutting down on some of the more unhealthy things I eat, so I've been looking at these things and trying to find substitutes.

As an example, right now I'd like to cook my version of a pesto pasta, where I usually use heavy cream, hard cheese in the sauce and mozzarella and parmesan as toppings. I also use some of the oil in the pesto and in the sundried tomatoes. This is absolutely delicious but it's unhealthy. Are there any ways for me to make this, and similar dishes, at least somewhat creamy without adding all of these ingredients?

Hi,
I've been enjoying buying cars and trying to tune them up for things like the Power Pack, and also for the campaign. However, all my tunes end up severely understeering or twitchy, even if I try to tweak downforce etc.

On the other hand, when I try one of the stock Gr3 cars, or the suggested cars for the Power Pack, they all handle so much smoother. I understand that they are "professionally" tuned by the devs, but how can I make my own tunes more like those?
