Elk Audio OS 0.7.0 beta release (w/ Raspberry Pi 4 64 bit support)

[Stefano]

Hi RIck, thanks!

@rcohen

A few questions:

1. Will there be new Sushi documentation for the additional features, or is the readme page up to date (e.g. extended OSC API)?

We updated the official docs to reflect the current status:
https://elk-audio.github.io/elk-docs/html/index.html

2. Does the new release include more prebuilt Sushi buffer sizes? It would be great if 256 and 512 were provided in addition to the previous complement of 16, 32, 64 and 128 samples.

Not currently but that’s something that’s pretty easy to do, in the Yocto recipe we just need to add those numbers to a list.

3. Would you recommend running the SWU or starting over with a newly flashed card?

For the Pi3 I’d strongly recommend using the .swu. For the Pi4, there’s only the choice of flashing directly the SD card since it’s the first release there.

4. I see that FFTW is included in the Elk-SDK. Is there some license included for its use in commercial products, or is that up to each company individually?

We don’t include the FFTW license in our commercial version. We mostly included for supporting some OS plugins that are using it.

Cheers,
Stefano
