Hi All, As the current subject is audio, I have an Idea/Curiosity too. Probably you know those AIWA Micro Systems (the one with 3CDs on the top). Those systems have a digital output that can be connected to a DAT recorder via optical fibers (see led behind). Won't be interesting decode that signal and maybe manipulate it? Of course a DSP will be more powerfull but for small experiences...
