Re: Good DSPs for Home-Cooked Coefficients?
Thank you all for your suggestions. I now have lots to look into.
Josh: On the Lab.Gruppen PLM, as far as I know the Lake software (which I find pretty ponderous, but that's another story) does not let me enter raw coefficients. I know the internals can do a 5 ms FIR, since I'm using that as a crossover filter. I'll try contacting LG.
The MiniDSP looks really cool. Nothing I found on their Web site reveals how long an FIR it supports or what, exactly is involved in loading coefficients. They are out of Hong Kong. We'll see what there is in the way of support.
David: I definitely will check out Soundweb London. I did not know that they do raw coefficients. I'll barely scratch the surface of a 3000 tap filter for what I want to do. I wonder who uses such long filters and what for? An advantage is that this is a real piece of sound equipment that can be dropped into the rig when I'm done fooling around.
Silas: It's good to know the Itech HD will do that. For this I'm leaning toward a free standing processor, unless I can get the Lab.Gruppen (the bird in hand) to play.
Mark: This, too, I shall investigate. It is no doubt the most flexible solution but likely also the most effort to get going. If I'm serious about this stuff it may be what I should do. And thank you for the offer of some support. I shall not abuse it
