No, you would just use a DSP with a documented instruction set like the SHARC. This is used in a lot of pro audio gear. You use LADSPA for host signal processing and native DSP code for hardware processing. This is how Pro Tools plugins work - there is one type that runs on the hardware and another type that runs on the host. I don't remember the exact terminology. All the examples from this guide use SHARC DSPs: http://www.dspguide.com/pdfbook.htm Do we currently have any supported hardware with an "open" DSP? The EMU chips have them but this support was reverse engineered. Lee
