And the coding rabbit hole similar to GAS begins haha
I dunno I find that micro second latency is fine for game engines in JS I don’t see how a ms can make such a big difference but what do I know. I’ve only dealt with baud rates of 9600 when making USB controllers (not MIDI, radio/relay controllers) but I prefer to use memory safe languages like Rust/Go however C is the industry standard and can do a lot more in this world. You just have to be sure to manage memory well. And while C is static/compiled, the type system is ok.
At the end of the day, just pick something useful to get a prototype going while you learn hardware. Then refactor to low latency solutions moving forward.
I’ve heard great things about micropython for sure!
MaxMSP seems quite useful as well. Never knew about it! TIL
Have fun with it
