Only event sounds gets mixed for a few milliseconds - only if you have them enabled (most avanced users tend to disable them). The complexity and roundtrip required to make use of the DSP on omap3 is not worth. Afaik, the TI dsp bridge is really not that performant, and does not deal well with task/resource management,... Better be careful with what you do with it, like knowing well your set of tasks, their resources... However, if your use case is to do audio mixing, for some specific music/audio device or application, then that could make sense. It would need to be verified though, because the DSP could sleep and live resampling + mixing with NEON is still quite cheap on CPU side only, it might not make you jump c/p-states for instance. regards -- Marc-Andr?
