LinkFPGA
Ableton Link as a black-box stomp on your studio rack.
A LiteX/Migen SoC for the Colorlight i9 v7.2 ECP5 board that joins Ableton Link sessions in hardware and emits TDM16 audio plus DIN-sync style transport pulses on dedicated GPIO pins — no DAW, no host PC, no audio driver.
Specifications
- Custom LinkPacketFilter drops non-Link UDP at line rate
- VexRiscv softcore runs the TLV parser, peer table and BMC
- GhostTimeUnit (64-bit) and BeatPulseGen in hardware
- N × TDM16 cores, 16 ch in / 16 ch out per port
- 24 / 48 / 96 PPQN beat clock + bar / start / stop / run pulses
- IPv4 + IPv6 Link discovery, HTTP-Basic admin UI
