Abstract

Methods and systems for generating computationally complex audio effects with low latency involve partitioning computation required to produce the effect into two components: a first component to be executed on a low latency signal network; and the second component to be executed simultaneously with the first component on a high latency signal network. For certain effects for which computation is separable into high and low latency functions, such dual signal network execution results in an overall signal latency of the low latency signal network and an overall efficiency of the high latency signal network. The low and high latency signal networks may be implemented on a DSP and a general purpose microprocessor respectively or both networks may be implemented on a single CPU. Simultaneous dual network implementation is especially beneficial in professional audio performance and recording environments.
