Cerny confirms dedicated audio processor in PS4

So much for the argument that XBone dedicated audio chip am secret sauce..

Who know if actually the PS4 one perform better,since the lemming new master Bkillian say that shape was mostly for Kinect and only a small part can be use for developers..:lol:

erm, duh, this was confirmed from day 1 about a dedicated audio processor in PS4. I believe there is also a dedicated low power CPU for downloads too.

lol

damn. just a colossal win for ps4 here. what a titan. 

do consoles not already do this anyway? not like some major ownage is it.razgriz_101

I don't think they do currently, normally it is all done in the standard CPU in consoles. It would be very minor ownage if one did and the other didn't. But both have it it would seem so...

I'm an xboner and have been massively owned!

EDIT: I meant DE-OWNED. :lol:

awesome post. modesty, humility - these are my favorites. 

im actually really modest myself. i brag about it all the time. 

What does that mean? It has an audio processor, how in the hell is that impressive?LA-Nighthawk

Meh I have a soundcard in my PC.

There is nothing special about a dedicated audio processor.

Claiming ownage with dedicated audio processors? :? What happened to you guys?

Just give me uncompressed or DolbyHD/DTS Master in games and I'm happy

I think it might be "ownage" if one console had it and another didn't, if only becuase the CPU's on these thigns are so weaksauce, that NOT having a dedicated audio processor would mean using up precious resources on these CPU's, most of which ALREADY have cut down performance due to MS and Sony locking out cores/performance out in order to accomodate the OS.

On PC, this doesn't matter much, since CPU's are so much more powerful. At the same time, it looks like AMD is pushing for a new audio processing engine in their cards. Not sure how much CPU it would save, but sounds cool, and it might stem form the work they did on the consoles.

Funny, but not surprising that lems in this thread are bad mouthing this and saying Sony fans are claiming this as ownage. It's so messed up that these same lems were all hyping up xbone having a dedicated audio processor, but they won't admit that it nulls any advantage to either. Infant one lem is even damage controlling to the point of insults and saying the xbone has a better one... Wow that's so e severe dc.Midnightshade29

Im pretty sure its been known since day one that ALL THREE of the consoles (including Wii U) have dedicated audio DSPs :|

Did some believe that the PS4 didn't have one?  I know the big deal about XBox One's audio processor is that is a very VERY sophisticated piece of hardware.  Something in the range of 500+ streams of audio, but all this also boils down to the end users set-up.  I bet the majority don't have 7.1 and even less proper equipment for 5.1.  By proper I mean high quality equipment so you can tell the difference, not some cheap 5.1 theater-in-one package.

Wtf do dedicated audio processors do?Capitan_Kid

Someone already brought it up but, Bkillian over at B3D came out and said that SHAPE was in fact doing mostly audio processing for the Microphone Array in the Kinect on the X1... He isn't wrong. :)

[QUOTE="Capitan_Kid"]Wtf do dedicated audio processors do?Chutebox

They take tasks away from the CPU. They are more effcient with those tasks.

poor lems, I remember them hyping up this "exclusive" feature a couple of days ago but now turns out the PS4 had one all along. No secret sauce power advantage for the XBone guys....

I'm not talking about cows, I'm talking about lems sarcastically (if you know what sarcasm is?). It only took a single google search to find this: http://www.gamespot.com/forums/topic/29441385/xbox-one-hardware-update.-that-other-thread-is-a-mess?page=6

Go hype your godly audio chip of the XB1. :roll:

Cows will take anything good or bad about M$ or the XB1 and bash it to death.

Cows will take anything good or bad about Sony or the PS4 and praise it like it's the 2nd coming of Christ. :roll:

This is why Cows are stupid. :lol:

Need some more details but doubt it actually means anything.

[QUOTE="RR360DD"]Nope, we've know the PS4 has a dedicated audio processor since the reveal.

Shape and the x1 audio processor are more powerful than ps4 processor.   You can do alot more with shape such as 5.1 to 4 gamepads for sound,  whereas ps4 does stero, you can offload cpu functions for audio instead of using cu's in a gpgpu setup like ps4 will do.  Bkillian has said how powerful shape is.   the xbone has a better audio setup.   So dont make yourself look foolish.  It was never a big deal anyway, but it a nice perk for xbone users.  Shape is a monster.
