arduino-audio-tools VS neural-amp-modeler

Have you found Phil's audio tools for Arduino, they work great on ESP32. https://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools

I use an ESP32-A1S board for that. I use this project https://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools/ and the platformIO vscode plugins.

Have a look at this example to see how easy using that library is :

Check out arduino-audio-tools and other libraries it can make use of, such as ESP32-A2DP. It's tailored towards ESP32 devices, but also supports the RP2040 and others.

The ESP32-A1S is a fun toy to program with that lib https://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools on that cheap kit: https://docs.ai-thinker.com/en/esp32-audio-kit

I have already successfully generated a fairly good 40khz sine wave with the internal DAC using this library: https://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools. I have also played an uploaded MP3 file, but I cannot figure out how to implement FM specifically to modulate the two waves together.

The PCM5102A does a great job. You can get modules for a few dollars, and can even get hat specifically designed for the RP2040. I've got one to work with an ESP32 with the Arduino Audio Tools library. Andreas Spiess has a great video on the subject.

Been wanting to do this myself a good source for this is this linkhttps://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools

Normally I’d recommend one of my YouTube videos :) - but actually this guy has done an amazing job: https://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools

I got it to play both MP3 and WAV files using ESP-audioI2S and arduino-audio-tools, though only single files. AAT uses player.copy() and the other uses audio.loop(), both can call files by name but only once, as far as I can tell.

The Neural Amp Modeller I'm talking about is a VST plugin. You don't really need it with the Helix, which looks awesome, but it's just a neat thing that exists. https://github.com/sdatkinson/neural-amp-modeler

Also, don't just blindly get something because Tim is using it. If you do go the plugin route, look into other cheaper plugins if you're on a budget like ML Sound Labs amp collection or even the free route with NAM. With all of these, you could get a sound like Tim. I kind of regret my purchase of Archetype Tim Henson because it is not nearly as versatile as something like Archetype Nolly, which I use all the time. I could get Tim Henson's tone on most plugins/amps, it's really simple.

Try Neural Amp Modeler. It is free and sound very accurate. For fun I modeled one of my Boss Katana 50 MKII presets and it was hard to say when I was playing via NAM vs Katana. For ready presets, take a look here: tonehunt.org.

Neural Amp Modeler free open source software where anyone can upload their amp models

Go and grab yourself the Neural Amp Modeler and the free amp models for it. They’re amazing, open-source, and free!

This is awesome. I'd be really interested to find out if a Raspberry Pi can run an open source amp modeler like NAM (https://github.com/sdatkinson/neural-amp-modeler).
