# DSP Components

lib_audio_dsp provides many common signal processing functions optimised for xcore. These can be combined together to make complex audio pipelines for many different applications, such as home audio, music production, voice processing, and AI feature extraction.

The library is split into 2 levels of API: DSP stages and DSP modules. Both APIs provide similar DSP functionality, but are suited to different use cases.

The higher-level APIs are called DSP Stages. These stages are designed to work with the Python DSP pipeline tool. This tool allows developers to quickly and easily create, test, and deploy DSP pipelines without needing to write a lot of code. By using DSP stages, the user can build complex audio processing workflows in a short amount of time, making it ideal for rapid prototyping and development.

The lower-level APIs are called DSP Modules. They are meant to be used as an API directly in cases where the Python DSP pipeline tool is not used. These modules can be useful when integrating DSP functionality into an existing system, or as a starting point for creating bespoke DSP functions.
