Atmel Dream Chip?
Posted: Sun Oct 10, 2010 2:18 am
Just curious about the Dream chip from Atmel.

I used to own a Game Teather 64 sound card, which used DLS bank of sounds, and had a great sound. It was years ago, and I even made songs using only the card and Cakewalk Pro Audio. ;-) It had nice digital filters and some kinda-good effects.
I wonder if it would be easy to get a single Dream chip and interface with a XMOS chip via software? Just curious, as I don't even know how to get the chips anyway...
I know a lot of good quality companies are using dream chips, like the Johannus organs and even some keyboards from M-Audio, but I can't confirm. (can someone confirm)
Anyway, just wondering about this, as a few years ago I was dreaming of a project using only Dream chips to make a killer sample-workstation synth. :ugeek: (even with Wavesequencing, as its just a mater of mixing waveforms the correct way to get WSeq from a Dream Chip)
