I noticed that a port to the STM32F4 Discovery has shown up in the MIOS sources. What is the status of the port? Is a new Core board planned?
The STM32F4 parts have a few features that the LPC1769 doesn't, mainly a proper SD card controller that can use 1 or 4 bit modes instead of SPI, should be a lot faster; and an external memory controller for SRAM or additional Flash. Unfortunately the 100 pin part on the Discovery board doesn't expose all the pins needed to properly interface with external memories, but for synth/sampler-types of instruments the prospects of a MIOS with access to megabytes of fast storage is quite exciting I think :smile:
The Discovery board does have the nice feature of an integrated audio quality stereo DAC, which I'd hope to see supported.
