Hmm. Doesn't seem to have an audio input though, so perhaps it'll work for a
synthesizer but not for a "stompbox" straight away. The site recommends a "USB
microphone" for audio in, so that's not encouraging...

On the other hand, the idea of a dedicated PDOS isn't a bad idea...Ed

Well, it could be a highly stripped-down version of Linux. I don't think anyone
has the time to write an OS, so I was being mischievous in suggesting this. I
am having some funny ideas today...
