Is there a DSP out there that would do detuning (like say +/- 1 to 12 cents) ready to go with minimal fuss getting it into a circuit (preferably with on-board or easily integratable ADC/DAC)?
Would like to add stereo detuning to a project...
The Spin FV-1 is the only one I can think of, and not just because my company is the distributor but I really can't think of another DSP with a pitch shift program built in along with ADC and DAC in stereo. See the data sheet http://www.spinsemi.com/Products/datasheets/spn1001/FV-1.pdf (http://www.spinsemi.com/Products/datasheets/spn1001/FV-1.pdf) The shift program built in is +/- 4 semitones but if you want to limit it to +/- 12 cents then you can mod the code an burn it to an eeprom that the FV-1 can read from.
That's what I'm looking for
however
I may have to put it on the backburner since I'm knee deep in PIC code right now and will have to defer learning enough about DSP to do this until I have more time to throw at it.
Otherwise, that's pretty much a turnkey solution.
How difficult would it be to code it for +/- cents and have the left and right signals independently configurable? And also, can you have an overall mix knob?
There are docs on how to write the pitch shifting code and the equations used to calculate the pitch amount at the Spin site so it is rather simple if you understand basic programming concepts.
The 3 POT inputs can be used for anything basically so you could do left and right independently and mix as well or mix externally.
Do I need any gear to flash the DSP, or just flash an eeprom and the DSP will read it as is?
Is there a list of compatible eeproms in the docs somewhere?
Just flash an eeprom, a 24LC32A. The SpinAsm assembler is free on the Spin site and will produce an Intel HEX file for device programmers.
Set the FV-1 to external mode (just a pin on the chip), connect the serial clock and data pins between the FV-1 and eeprom and it will read the programs from the eeprom. You can have up to 8 programs in the eeprom, SpinAsm will assemble and build them into a single HEX file.
I see that the 24LC32A is on the compatibility list for Pickit 2. I've never done an EEPROM before - is there any documentation out there on which pickit pins go to which eeprom pins (and any other circuitry involved) for flashing those? the eeprom datasheet wasn't too helpful....
Also, does that DSP have enough power to run the detuners as well as a short (<150ms) pre-delay on each side?
Here's a schematic for programming the eeprom, Pin 1 on the programmer is the one marked with the white arrow.

47k might not be the best resistor value but it works for me.
If you need any more info there's a "README" file on the Pickit Starter CD that explains how to hook it up to all the supported chips.

Yeah, it will be able to do that.
Awesome! Thanks everyone.
