The Atari Falcon is the ultimate machine for decoding Project Stardust audio.

The DSP56001 processes the 44.1 kHz stream directly via the SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) without touching the 68030 host bus.
A 256-point complex FFT is computed every 10 milliseconds, displaying a live spectrogram on a standard VGA monitor.

Too bad Atari marketing was so incompetent that nobody bought the Falcon before they pulled out of the computer market.

Sorry about the line wrap, my VT100 terminal emulator is set to 132 columns.
