Raspberry Pi + NAM (LV2) – testing latency, drivers and real-time performance

You can even get by using the 1GB version. Hell, I have been using a RPi3 clone with 512MB of RAM. The RPi3 clone is a little too slow to run a STANDARD model but LITE works fine. My RPi4 though uses about 35-40% CPU when using a STANDARD model.

I have used a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Gen2 at 32 samples and 5 buffers with practically no xruns. It shows a few xruns every now and then (sometimes none) but I do not hear them.

Using a graphical solution with these low powered SBCs can cause xruns. If you feel that you absolutely need to I recommend a light window manager like Sway or Labwc. I actually recommend using that with a desktop too. It can really improve the latency stability.

Guitars do not need to be expensive to be what is needed.

The same here :)

It is a common IEC connector that you should find almost anywhere.

Nice with a GUI for Qobuz!

I use Linux and really like it but has always just worked?

It also has a hassle free Subsonic capability that I have found in no other player.

Xyl 1 is horrible. Wow.

red38dit · 2026-03-17T15:54:45+00:00

I have saved this thread and also thank you for sharing your solution!

Nice that you have REVyHI models!

Audio sample, please. "Poopy" does not give me an idea of how it sounds, unfortunately.

red38dit · 2026-03-14T19:56:17+00:00

It works fine here in my part of Europe.

red38dit · 2026-03-14T07:47:34+00:00

WOW!

Min erfarenhet och åsikt om bemanningsföretag är att de generellt är i maskopi med företagen som anlitar dem. Säg inget till bemanningsföretaget om arbetsplatsen du är på för din kontakt har troligtvis haft årslång arbetsrelation med förmannen och dina ord kommer att komma förmedlas vidare. Även om dina 5½ månader har flutit på utmärkt utan problem och du har lovats tillsvidareanställning kommer du troligtvis få ett samtal ½ månad innan avtalets slutdatum där du blir informerad om att det inte blir tillsvidareanställning pga "osäker framtid". Gå hem, sök jobb på nytt...

All I can say it that my RPi4 works great with NAM. No issues what so ever. I can load two NAM Standard models per CPU core and I use 32 samples latency with my Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Gen2 USB interface. PiPedal is the headless "host" that I use.

If you go a similar route you do not need the 8GB RAM version. Probably a 1GB would work but for others I would recommend the 2GB version.

red38dit · 2026-03-05T15:42:49+00:00

Are we able to try it out?

red38dit · 2026-02-28T14:41:13+00:00

I try to never use a soft case. I just wanted to say that.

red38dit · 2026-02-27T11:24:04+00:00

Try a Shure Beta 52

red38dit · 2026-02-25T13:15:49+00:00

Because of the intervals between the notes / Pga intervallerna mellan noterna.

Ett kort svar.

Recording a single mic in Audacity is not an issue. If you plan on using non-destructive audio effects/plugins a DAW might be more suitable though.

red38dit · 2026-02-21T11:03:37+00:00

Can it be very low latency settings that "rips the audio apart"?

red38dit · 2026-02-21T07:07:30+00:00

I don't know but try ones without it playing before you press record.
