A project log for USB <-> AVB 32x32 channel interface

BBbox field recorder needed a networking option and AVB USB was expensive.

one of the 1st projects I designed plugged in and it seams to just work.

the XMOS USB populates as a multichannel sound card in the DAW. 

So for I only tried Ableton Live and it seams to work fine.

I am now adapting the code in BBBOX field recorder so that it can populate / connect channels automagically in PTP mode without the need for an AVB router.

This should result in sub 2mS USB networked audio interface to the BBbox field recorder.

Although the interface can network 32 in x 32 out channels the bbbox mixer at the moment is only setup on 8 x 8 TDM SD lines to the xmos AVB chip. I will try and increase those TDM lines to 16 x 16.

DSP chip TDM lines are only 2cm or so , so it could well work
