What type of SHARC processors under the SOLARIS

Post by HUROLURA »

Just a silly question to elaborate on the potential DSP power of the SOLARIS: what type number and clockrate of the ADI DSP are used by the SOLARIS ?

John ?

Wish a happy and successfull new year !!!

Sorry, I can't tell you for sure at this point, as I think we are changing the part.

On the Functional Block Diagram for ADSP-21369 it states that there's a customer definable ROM Block.
I was curious if that's where certain functions were stored and updated, or what it's purpose was for.

So the SOLARIS has "just" the DSP power of 1 UAD2 quad + 1 UAD2 Duo !!!

Yes Guys, just 15 time the power of 1 UAD1 board...

Ouch !

And just for a reminder:
- UAD2 quad entry price is: $ 1,499
- UAD2 duo entry price is: $ 899
so an equivalent system cost $ 2,398

... and as no built in user interface and no synth plugs

Just remind us the MRSP price of the SOLARIS John.

I would call the SOLARIS HW a bargain in term of tech specs.
