Hello, everyone. I am interested in DSP, specifically audio synthesis and wish
to embark on educating myself on the Analog Devices TigerShark. I have been
programming for many years, and C is not new to me. I find the development tools
for the TigerShark to be very expensive and am looking for advice.
Where should I start?
Am I overlooking another option for development tools? Such as a breakout board,
JTAG/ICE and compiler?
Any advice would be appreciated.

See if there are any development kits that include programming tools as
part of the price. That is a very high end processor and the assumption
is that if you can afford the system that will go around that processor
you can afford the tools.
For synthesis you should weigh the cost of many processors doing simple
things vs one processor doing everything. A digital mixer can help with
that.
There are very few people who use high end tools, so they have to be
expensive. But there are development kits which have a lot of the main
tool capabilities and if you can work with a kit you can get a lot done at
much lower cost.
It's a common complaint - and there's not much anyone can do about it
because that's how the market works.
Patience, persistence, truth,

I would turn my attention to the SHARC ADSP-21469 instead. It is ideal
for audio.

We have low cost SHARC boards including development boards can use the
free VisualDSP++ KIT license.

I would look at Danvillesignal in terms of audio. They have some very
inexpensive cards. They also have a flash programmer, and other utilities.
