I'm racking my brain trying to wrap my head around the Teensy/Arduino coding to processing analog inputs etc., and before investing in the wrong method (as usual...), I was wondering if anyone knows the most efficient way (between Serial, HID, or Midi) to get multiple 7-8 bit or fp values into Usine? I notice the serial example seems to need more modules than midi probably would, but I'm sure there's many factors here I don't understand...

Can you precise your goal here..?

Use midi USB with the teensy.
Only drawback is you can use only one instance of teensy midi on one computer
otherwise it is very stable.

Thanks oli_lab, that's been my impression so far too. I just wasn't sure if serial or HID might not be a more efficient/direct way to transfer raw values back and forth...

My goal is sending a combination of digital and analog values between teensy and Usine (mostly to Usine). In my workspace they need to be converted to floating point and go to an array bus used to distribute modulation values. (I need a dynamic remote environment that can be rerouted for each preset, and an fp array seemed more efficient and flexible than midi - but someone please correct me if I'm wrong!)

for sure, midi is only 7bit (except for pitch bender wich is 14 bit)
