<p dir="ltr">Hi Busby,<br>
Look in the synth-diy archives online, there was recently a survey of dsp chips and eval boards that I have sent out.</p>

been a fair bit of discussion here on the list about digital stuff and<br>
the latest cool MCU options (that mostly goes way over my<br>

<br>
I will note that I've seen a few DIY projects that used the MCP4822<br>
chip, which is a little cheap dual 12-bit D/A converter with SPI (but<br>
getting a bit long in the tooth now though, so I'm sure there are better<br>
options out there...)<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
