>>> Any idea what the cost of "swizzling" is? I like that term BTW <<< When I tried SIMD-izing our mix engine, the cost of swizzling for stereo streams offset the gains of SIMD. In other words if I had to swizzle I was better off just using plain old FPU code. (Swizzle is Intel's term I heard at an IDF a few years ago.) >>> Interleaving is orthogonal to the issue of grouping, or it should be anyway.] <<< I agree. But my point was if we stick to mono streams we'll need a away to represent both cohesively. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Generalized Music Plugin Interface (GMPI) public discussion list Participation in this list is contingent upon your abiding by the following rules: Please stay on topic.
