Hi all.

Does anyone have any experience or plans to perform audio-related
processing using one of these boards with the Adapteva 16-core coprocessor?

http://www.parallella.org

It's cheap and low power (RaspberryPi-esque) but seemingly quite capable of
significant workloads (especially the upcoming 64-core version).

I figured it may be useful for many channel decoding of B-format to speaker
feeds, or doing some heavy lifting in FIR calculations for
room-equalization, etc.

I have in mind echo cancelers and convolving out the room contribution for
VC applications.  However I don't know enough about chip architecture to
know whether this would be a good choice over more conventional (SHARC)
DSPs.  I see that this is only 32-bit float capable in hardware, whereas
math functions in the SHARC ar 40-bit precision.  For proper scientific
computing, double floats (64-bit) are usually desired, but I'm uncertain
whether this applies to the audio domain.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
JQ
