Flow DSP Components 

Flow Studio: the graphical modular design editor

This component is designed to support signal processing creativity with an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. In Flow, complex programming syntax is abstracted into Audio Objects, blocks that users map into a flowchart layout to form a graphical algorithm. Studio simplifies and accelerates the design and debug of audio features.

Flow DSP Engine: the processor-agnostic embedded engine

This component is re-integrated on the most popular DSPs, MCUs, and cores with highly optimized overhead.

Flow Audio Objects: the library of audio building blocks

Flow DSP is scalable and modular, with a complete out-of-the-box library of algorithms from low-level primitives and control blocks to best-in-class 3rd-party IPs and ready-to-use design templates. 

Flow Open Architecture: customizable Audio Objects

Designed to be expandable, open architecture enables users to write their own custom Audio Objects using C programming language. Custom Audio Objects can be combined into encrypted Sub-Patches allowing for the secure sharing and reuse of proprietary IP. 

Ecosystem Partners

Flow DSP supports the many-sided audio industry ecosystem, connecting algorithm developers, SoC Makers, System Integrators, ODMs, and OEMs. Through the Flow ecosystem, stakeholders gain access to pre-integrated and supported offerings from best-in-class, handpicked partners. In supporting an ecosystem, Flow DSP streamlines the development process, enabling rapid innovation from ideation to project kickoff.
