Spin Semiconductor

To help the new guy on his journey, do ya'll have any recommedations for books on DSP? I have programming experience and understand the concepts of how chorus, delay, reverb, etc. work, but how these effects are created with a multiply-accumulate instruction is a mystery. Thanks.

I would recommend you start with Keith's notes on the spin site here. Then, if you have a technical book store near you (if in Los Angeles area check out OpAmp Technical books) then go and browse the books. I've found that which book works best for a person really varies.

This is an online book that may be a good starting point http://www.dspguide.com/pdfbook.htm

Thanks again. Finding a book that is neither too basic nor too far over your head is a personal thing indeed.
