Do either of you, or anyone else, know a good place to start reading about on this area (sparkfun gives me hardware, but very little 
in the way of knowlege to even make choices)  Google (or at least my search terms) isnt getting me very far.

Again, what im looking for is some sort of development platform where i can (hopefully) implament some audio processing, with 
sufficient facilities to let me concentrate soely on the programming side, rather than having to learn the hardware 
specifics(dacs/adc/busses etc) before i even start.

A kind of 'dummies guide to microprocessor driven effects boxes' if you like!

Thanks, Julian
