From where I stand (I'm a designer and artist, but I'm helping where I can) the project needs more people who understand microcontroller structure. The Daisy can't yet talk to its GPIO, so it can't yet do i2c or anything similar. But by the time the project is fully rolling, it shouldn't be tied to a single chip architecture, never mind a single development board.
The project needs people who care and know about programming DSP hardware! And Tim is an amazing core developer. It's a pleasure working together.
This is an important objective of the rapidly-progressing plugdata project! The patcher is based on pure data so you can live patch yourself into deep space with any GP computer (a RasPi works fine), but has a sleek, calm, efficient, and themeable UI. In the last couple of weeks has grown a compiler that is working in its preliminary form both compiling in to C and flashing a Daisy synth dev board. The eventual hope is to gain compatibility across microcontrollers for not just audio synthesis, but for any creative purpose.
The builds are coming thick and fast. 0.6.2 is so far behind the daily builds right now that 0.6.3 is going to be an enormous leap in functionality. Tim and the development team are doing a spectacular job of staying focused and cranking out bugfixes and features sometimes multiple times a day.
