which audio processing algorithms are still done in hardware?

With ARM processors becoming increasingly fast and low power,
I was wondering which audio processing algorithms are still
done in hardware?

Bharat
Knobs are hardware.

Touchware, in other words. Richard Dobson

An ARM processor is hardware - so all of them.

You sir, are supposed to be the force on this group that helps to prevent smart ass answers....

A touch sensitive display is hardware. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com Do you need to implement control loops in software? "Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" was written for you. See details at http://www.wescottdesign.com/actfes/actfes.html

Actually he seems to do better at preventing unkind answers. Being an effective smart ass requires the same sort of propensity to see all the loopholes and pitfalls in a question or a proposed design that marks a good engineer. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com Do you need to implement control loops in software?

A good engineer knows how to rally the troops and management around his good ideas. Being a smart ass (of which I am guilty of being one more often than I should be) is often counter productive to getting your good ideas from being acted on in an effective manner. I have known many smug and sarcastic engineers who are truly smart, but they get nothing done and are the first ones on the lay off list. It really is not very hard to shred any idea. Ask Steve Jobs, the guy who invented fed-ex, Bill Gates and others. They all had smart ass smug engineers who told them how stupid they were, I am sure.
Thank you for your endorsement, but it must depend heavily on just who does the supposing. Note that I frequently tax posters with defining their terms.
