Members DaveAronow Posted January 19, 2010 Members Share Posted January 19, 2010 You should check out the KEYBOARD forum. What a serious bunch of eggheads. You need an I.Q. of at least 300 to even be let in the door. I snuck in the back and was promptly escorted out. They use WAY too many big words for me to even have a CLUE what they are talking about. I mean, who TALKS like this? " The GPU in your computer is a massive resource for DSP processing that's going untapped because people are just starting to explore its possibilities w.r.t. signal processing, and languages (like OpenCL) to exploit it in a "normal" programming environment are just starting to gain traction. There are lots of possibilities there that don't currently exist, the least of which is potentially speeding up calculations required for physical modelling. It also poses some interesting possibilities for synthesis (the GPU works on blocks of data, which would make it useful for doing things like applying one type of filter to the first 0.00002 sec of a sound, another type to the next 0.00002 sec, and so on). Again, though, all of this is heady stuff so it will take some time to digest and comprehend." Whut? actually I understand all of this, im just funin with them. They ARE eggheads though.

Members caeman Posted January 19, 2010 Members Share Posted January 19, 2010 So did I. Though, their use of 'processing' after DSP makes for awkward grammar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Elazul Posted January 19, 2010 Members Share Posted January 19, 2010 {censored}. i understood all of that. Yeah, I did too. I just didn't want to sound like a {censored}ing nerd... To be honest, using your GPU's power to process sound is a pretty ingenious idea, and the sounds you could make by applying a different filter every .00002 of a second must be pretty wild. Too bad I don't have a keyboardist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Kellanium Posted January 19, 2010 Members Share Posted January 19, 2010 I could be a keyboardist for how nerdy I am but I'd rather apply my nerdiness to something productive. Like modding the {censored} out of my guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kuroyume Posted January 19, 2010 Members Share Posted January 19, 2010 Being a computer programmer, most of that actually made sense to me. But wouldn't it be difficult to use the GPU to do sound processing and play World of Warcraft simultaneously. That would not be good for the game. :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members scuzzo Posted January 19, 2010 Members Share Posted January 19, 2010 do they even have keybord porn? i mean its such an ugly instrument.. all function no form.. i mean i have a cazio cz 101 and although it a cool little synth,,, its freaking ugly.. just knobs and push buttons and meh.. look at how the light glances off the little push buttons.. yea WTF?
