Hi Beni,


... I would consider using the Accelerate framework to do the heavy DSP lifting if you're considering making this software mac- only.

I guess Mark was referring to the vDSP library provided by Apple. Especially the FFT sample code is worth a look:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Performance/Conceptual/ vDSP/sample_chap/chapter_5_section_3.html


A question to the list about the vDSP routines: How do these perform/behave with Intel Macs?

Very well.

I learned they don't use the AltiVec Processor anymore.

They do through the Accelerate framework, implicitly, when running under a PPC G4 or G5 architecture.


Does that result in any disadvantages, I mean in terms of processing power? Thanks for any clues.

I suggest this very useful article by Frank Schoep:

http://www.ffnn.nl/pages/articles/apple-mac-os-x/vectorizing-with- vdsp-and-veclib.php


And trying his FFT-based "Octave Shifter 2" and "Diatonic Shifter 2" AU plug-ins will give you an idea 'in terms of processing power':
