[sdiy] Interesting cheap DSP chip

[Ryan Williams]

yep, I like the way it runs the entire code on each sample. My only
complaint is that it only samples at 48khz. well, it also requires an
external flash ic or a uC to load the code space. my current projet
involves one of these an an 8051 usb processor on a board. it will be
sort of a synth oriented development board for the al3101/2.

there is a cool project using one:

this company, wavefront, used to be called alesis semiconductor btw.
