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?
