@nprofile…0pwe at the moment I'm driving two tanks straight from my audio interface, the signal level is a bit low but it does work.
Will probably be even better when my PCBs with the driving circuit get here

Funny how expensive digital recreations of spring reverbs are compared to just getting a spring reverb tank... turns out those are only 35eur

W00t a kernel driver for the FOSDEM power board :D

@npub1xz2…69v6 seems like this does not do the same thing? I don't see a way to get a non-string result for this at least.
The only thing I see is lazy evaluated parameters but the squirrel strings should not be lazy evaluated instead, only the results of the expressions are stored.
