Hi Julian,
The WRM1 seems to work the same way as the ones I know. I'd be interested to
know how it reacts and what you do with it!
My git hub is alx-s.
I've just added athe RPi_tutorials repo
(https://github.com/alx-s/RPi_tutorials) with a first tutorial concerning OSC
bewtween python and pd.
Keep in mind I'm new to git and I write the tutorials as I work. If you spot
any mistake, have, suggestion or have anything to add, ..., please tell me!
That's all I've written for today but others will come by the end of the week
(GPIO, using Maxbotix...). Good luck with it ;)
Have fun,
Alex
