From the project
A faust-to-fpga compiler toolchain
This directory contains the KiCad source files for The LINE, a modular 8-channel loudspeaker PCB module, along with autogenerate.py, a parametric generation script that can adapt the board layout to different loudspeaker dimensions and spacings without any manual PCB editing.
The LINE is an open-source, modular loudspeaker array platform designed for spatial audio research and artistic deployment. Each PCB module integrates eight MAX98357A digital audio amplifiers (DAC + Class-D power stage in one chip) and eight PCB-mounted loudspeakers. Modules are daisy-chained via identical 2×20…
