If you've ever used Photoshop (or a similar program)
for graphics, you've used the various plugins for
sharpening, blurring, distorting, whatever the
pixels on screen. Lots of audio software these
days (ProTools, for example) allows you to,
in a similar fashion, do transformations on
recorded audio. DSP stands for Digital Signal
Processing.
Remember all those horrible CD covers that
were basically photos that someone's
little sister had taken, with about
a dozen Photoshop filters applied haphazardly
to them? Remember after a while that
people came to their senses and realized
that this stuff wasn't really impressing
anyone who'd ever sat down in front of
a photo editing application for a couple
of minutes?
Welcome to a big chunk of IDM in 1999.
