Midimerger latency PIC18F release

[fabryz77]

Hi, i see the new firmware version for the PIC18F in the MIdimerger section, i soon will realize a Midimerger and i would like know if the merger realized with the PIC18F give less latency Vs the PIC16F. Thanks! ;)

Hi Fabrizio,

if you measure the latency from the time the MIDI byte has been received to the time it will be sent out, and so long there is no collision, then it is identical: PIC16F: 0, PIC18F: 0

If you still have some spare PIC16F: use them. Otherwise I would prefer PIC18F just because of the reusability with other MIDI projects (maybe some time later you want to build a MIDI filter/processor or something like that)

Best Regards, Thorsten.
