Message-ID: Hi Julius: Some of us MST people have been complaining that we have so much coursework that we don't have much time for creative pursuits in personal interests (aka research). I had this idea last night to create an elective independent study, in audio DSP programming. Personally, I am interested in implementing a virtual analog synthesizer, and others I am sure are interested in making their own effects proccesors. Of course, these algorithms can be prototyped in matlab, or run in linux as C++. But for implementation there is nothing better than a dedicated DSP chip. Plus I think experience working with a DSP chip would give me valuable skills for the industry. http://www.soundart-hot.com/english/index.htm There is a very cool device called the Chameleon that is a development platform for the motorola coldfire DSPs. I'd like to propose that CCRMA purchase a few of these for general use. For talking with the MSTs, it sounds like about 4 or 5 people are interested. It would be ideal to have more than one Chameleon, so that people could . I wonder if we can get a CCRMA discount or something, for better publicity for the company (Sound-Art)? I think I may have a contact there, who is on a few mailing lists that I am on. Let me know what you think about this idea.

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.0.20021127205214.02e8aee8@w3k.org> Hi David, I think that's an interesting idea, and I think we could make it work. For example, everyone interested in taking this elective could sign up for Music 220D under my section number, and we could meet as a group to brainstorm about all the various projects and help each other past hurdles. I believe we already have a development system for the ADI SHARC platform, and I assume we can get others, especially if we start now to obtain them. One question is how many people want to program in DSP assembly language? In my experience, the great majority of students are content with C++ for real-time prototypes (with Matlab being used for a analysis and design work). I find it hard to believe that there would suddenly be 5 or 6 people wanting to work in DSP assembly language, but if I'm wrong, so be it. I have years of experience in this area myself, so there is no problem supervising it from my point of view. Let's get a firm number and try to secure the needed development systems. If purchase is required, we'll need to convince Chris Chafe to spend the $. I'm in favor!

I had assumed it was in C, but C++ is a bonus! However, the IDE appears to be only for Windows machines at this time.
