And ST (with similar considerations for node size etc.).


VBA is just there for backward compatibility.

The modern alternative is to use JavaScript/TypeScript, which makes such solutions cross platform (including MacOs, web etc.):

FWIW, this project is entirely digital (audio in: USB, audio out: S/PDIF or I2S).

There are other projects for the Pico which implement S/PDIF in.

In either case, since it is digital, the quality (or lack of) of the internal ADCs should not matter.


A lower cost option is to buy a set of sticker overlays (e.g. similar to the ones you can buy to make it easier to type Korean or Japanese, etc. on a US (or generally, non-native) keyboard).

Also: mode off (fashion).
