Raspberry pi

Looks like you could benefit greatly from having the challenge of making the Pi work, though.  I'm pretty sure your skills aren't as bad as you think, in the C department .. and there is a lot of support you can depend on, in this regard, I think.

> 3) I think FPGAs offer a degree of raw processing, especially for synths that you can't get on a general purpose CPU
> 4) I like hardware, not software
> 5) It's the way my brain is wired, one processor = one job

I've been really enjoying watching whats been going on with FPGASynth over the years .. so I hope to see some of your progress, then!
