Hi all,
I have been busy restoring a NeXTCube/IRCAM Signal Processing
Workstation to run an early version of MAX, the music programming
environment. The IRCAM Signal Processing Workstation is a combination of
software and a DSP coprocessor/soundcard which allowed high-quality
interactive music applications. I was lucky to get access to a
perfectly preserved NextCube with a working ISPW soundcard.
So, for those in need of a Friday afternoon shot of nostalgia/music DSP
history, see here:
