Elk Audio OS significantly streamlines deploying great audio software across digital hardware devices, such as synthesizers, drum-machines and effect pedals.
We take care of the obstacles and specialist knowledge for deploying on extremely high-performance embedded Linux devices, letting developers concentrate on what they do best - creating awesome audio software and products.
In this talk we present the strategies and tools embodied in our platform, using which existing audio plugins can very efficiently be deployed. We will show how plugins can be built for Elk using various tools and frameworks, including JUCE.
An open-source version of Elk will be released shortly after the ADC conference, together with a multi-channel expansion Hat for Raspberry Pi. We will discuss the details of the open-source license, and the implications for releasing products based on Elk.
