thank you so much for helping debug — i’m curious if this isn’t due to kernel differences between stock / shield / fates, as some offlines convos suggest.
if you’re having a slow night and have insights from your experience, the arduino code is my first dip into c — in the “expressive midi” scene it seems that the hardware state is polled (and a message is sent?) every 10ms rather than solely executing code when hardware is actually engaged. am i reading this totally wrong?
long story short, i’m wondering if things are getting clogged
