Support for DSP Access in Multimedia Windows

ID: Q76871


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows with Multimedia Extensions, version 1.0

Microsoft does not provide an application programming interface (API) to access digital signal processing (DSP) hardware in Windows with Multimedia Extensions version 1.0. An API of this type should provide device independence, which is very difficult, given the diversity of DSP hardware configurations on the market today.

However, it is possible to access DSP functions through a higher-level API provided by Windows with Multimedia Extensions. To provide this functionality through an audio driver customized to the particular DSP board, the Multimedia Device Development Kit is required. The audio driver API is written to provide device independence.
