"hacking" SAM to do convolution
#18
@David A :"I'd want to know a lot more about how SAM is implemented, how much of the processing power in a Devialet is devoted to that processing, and whether it's a separate processor or just a routine in the overall processing code."

In the past Devialet has indicated that there is unused DSP capacity in Experts that can be used for convolution. Maybe SAM processing uses most of this so there is little capacity left. In the main DSP that is... With the CI additional CPU power is added so convolution should be possible. I think it is more of a 'popularity' thing and the 'Not Invented Here' syndrome. What three letter acronym should Devialet use for the unique feature of Devialet convolution?

Here is a quote form Manuel de la Fuente in 2011: "Regarding speaker or room correction options in the DSP, we finally decided not to include it in this version of the configurator, both because we needed more time and because it is risky option to put in everybody's hands."
Yes it is risky. An increase in support cases - user: "my Devialet sounds terrible!" Devialet: "are you using convolution?" user: "yes and when I turn it off it sounds even worse!".. Smile
