Raspberry Pi

So do you have it connected to a monitor or are you using VNC?

VNC, but when my wifi card is plugged in, the sound isn't clear. I mean there are a lot of clicks and pops... when I use my monitor, mouse and keyboard, it has really really amazing sound. When acoustic guitar is plugged in, it sounds like 'studio sound' (clear and wonderful), but with my electric guitar there is a tone suck...
but still, I am impressed.

Probably wants a preamp or buffer on the input, doubt the codec card has 1 M input impedance.  Too bad about the wifi causing problems.  It'd be great to be able to use an iPad or Android tablet for the UI.

Exactly, now I am just curious how to use PureData GUI but without using VNC. Maybe little lcd screen with mouse and keyboard in a pedalboard?

Maybe little lcd screen with mouse and keyboard in a pedalboard?

Full QWERTY keyboard with momentary footswitches, that would be something!

Or little (4-6 inch) touchscreen... and configuration to launch in gui mode

How about an Oculus Rift, with a GoPro overlay so you can see what you're doing?

[gasmask]

hmmm... Very interesting. Will OculusRift cooperate with Debian? XD
but seriously, I still do not know how to solve the problem with gui...
Anyone? Any ideas?

Like you said: small TFT + touch screen?

What I've done is:

-Use Puredata without GUI
-add an LCD + pushbuttons shield and use it to change presets and tweak parameters via a python script

Of course, when creating patches I need to use the gui, but once I'm done with it, I can access them like a preset from the keypad.

The usb sound card is it mic or line level? If you wanted to run it between the guitar and another pedal or amp wouldn't you need a preamp on the input and a pad on the output?
