Now AMD is going to promote its own technology for hardware audio processing called TrueAudio. TrueAudio is a certain hardware solution available in graphics cards based on the new processor architecture GCN 1.1 - Bonaire and Hawaii.
So, in the GPU engineers were able to place multiple digital signal processors Tensilica HiFi EP Audio DSP and additional binding, the realization of TrueAudio shown in the diagram:
I must say, AMD also takes care of the software side TrueAudio: to cooperate in this area attracted many companies involved in the development of game engines as well as libraries and interfaces for use with surround sound. Presumably, the list of partners in the future will only grow.
Importantly, TrueAudio frees from processing the sound CPU. In particular, AMD says about the possibility of involving clever algorithms to recreate the sound cast real rooms or open spaces. And the ability to calculate multiple simultaneous sound sources AMD said during its Hawaiian presentation. Related Products :
