I recently learned about arduino from an engineering friend of mine at work, and I have begun the initial stages of educating myself... I am a sound guy by passion, and I have been designing all manner of extreme low frequency sound systems (>20,000Wrms car stereos) for 30 years now.
I have been an electronics hobbyist for a long time as well, acquiring microminiature soldering instructor status while serving in the military. Despite all I have done with power, I know where my skill set ends, and that's why I am here. My late brother passed when his ea-6b crashed during a training mission last year and I am building a theme car to honor the fallen heroes of the military. I want to take this build to another level all together and arduino can do what I need.
So please forgive all of my future stupid questions, because I will have a lot of them while I get smart on how the programming side works. I am not a stupid guy and I will learn. Thanks in advance for all of your help.
Areas I am most interested in: real-time
interaction with sound/movement/heat
Multi-stage DC actuation with limiter/speed control
Synchronization of both of these to music/sound tracks
