PS4 has AMD's TrueAudio DSP - Confirmed

What is TrueAudio?

In a nutshell, TrueAudio is a return to the concept of hardware accelerated audio processing, with AMD leveraging their position to put the necessary hardware on the GPU. Hardware accelerated audio processing in the PC space essentially died with Windows Vista, which moved most of the Windows audio stack into software. Previously the stack was significantly implemented through drivers and as such various elements could be offloaded onto the sound card itself, which in the case of 3D audio meant having the audio card process and transform DirectSound 3D calls as it saw fit. However with Vista hardware processing and hardware access to those APIs was stripped, and combined with a general “good enough” mindset of software audio + Realtek audio codecs, the matter was essentially given up on.

Now even with the loss of traditional hardware acceleration due to Vista, you can still do advanced 3D audio and other effects in software by having the game engine itself do the work. However this is generally not something thatΒ’s done, as game developers are hesitant to allocate valuable CPU time to audio and other effects that are difficult to demonstrate and sell. Further complicating this is of course the current generation consoles, which dedicate a relatively small portion of what are already pretty limited resources to audio processing. As a result the baseline for audio is at times an 8 year old console, or at best a conservative fraction of one CPU core.

• PS4 is not a super-computer, but it's an impressive piece of technology
• They chose the hardware (admitted mainstream-spec) to hit the price-point and at the same time a 10-year cycle.

Even Shuhei Yoshida Surprised by one of the PS4 All Access Announcements, Teases Keighley

Host Geoff Keighley is keeping up the teasing for tomorrow nightΒ’s PS4 launch event and All Access broadcast to be aired on Spike TV at 11 PM EST. He just mentioned that even SCE Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida was surprised by one of the announcements waiting to be revealed.

The tweet included the vine video you can see below, showing a rather…baffled (maybe?) Yoshida-san.

Vine video

What could be so over-the-top to surprise even one of the men most deeply embedded in PlayStationΒ’s control room? Is Keighley just trolling at this point, or maybe weΒ’re really going to be swiped off our feet by the incoming barrage of PS4 announcements ?
