<p>You found Spin FV-1 dev boards for $30? Wow that's a good deal I mean they were never terribly expensive DSPs but that's about 1/3rd of cost if it's the standard dev board. On sound quality it sounds pretty good (well mainly on the algorithym you put in. I think the dev board comes with 10 pre-filled effects and 10 user blank ones. They have a little ASMish language with lots of macros. You can make LFOs, Envelopes and other really basic building block stuff besides the more complex effects items. The modular community seems to like it. If I remember correctly it is the core to the TipTop Audio Z-DSP module. Which sells for 400+!! One of the reasons they want the summed output of the Dronlab (prob the coolest) or just it's output own output fed back in, in stereo if I remember (also trying to picture the z-dsp front panel) is it allows you to do some really nice feedback loops or really angry loud feedback loops. </p>
<p>I would recommend going to thier site (the fv-1 ppl) and download the manual. It gives you a pretty clear picture on what it can do and what is impossible with it's semi (not too bad) limited feature set.</p>
<p>Pete, this suddenly gave me an idea but not using the fv-1 but my core :p</p>
