TLV320AIC3256: Access to parametric EQ at run-time...

When you load and run the code, on the right side of the screen you should see runtime properties and anything under that can be modified on runtime.

You are correct, the items on the right are called Runtime Properties. And I suspect when I use the AIC3256-EVM-U board I can adjust them by changing the sliders in the GDE parametric control (I haven't tried this yet). That is not the issue. The issue is that when I run Build->Generate Code and look at the resulting symbols in aic_main.lst, the only symbols that are exported for the parametric equalizer are the symbols for the gain variables in the coefficient RAM. Here's what I get:

Note that the all the modules output a reasonable set of parameters except the parametric equalizer. It only "supports" the gain for each filter bank.

I've also thought, "well maybe I can use the gain symbol as the start for the rest of the filter bank coefficients". Nope, that doesn't work either: the gain items are all adjacent to each other, no room for other coefficients.

My plan now is to set up the AIC3256-EVM-U, and monitor the the I2C port. Then adjust a parameter and see what address is updated. It's a backward way to do it, but if I can't get the address from the assembler, I need to be creative.

For PEQ, that's correct. 

We only export the gain that user can change on runtime. This is because of the amount of resources that is needed in miniDSP in order to support runtime adjustments for these properties. 

Basically, you will develop and reload each setting if you need to change the other properties.

I have each setting in my embedded processor and I'd like to reload to set the new values. How do I do this exactly?

If you have each setting, you can use standard EQ.

Here is an apps. note on loading the setting in adaptive mode, see section 2.1.2 for DAC.

Coefficient RAM Access Mechanisms.. (Rev. D) (ti.com)

Regards.

What module in GDE is the "Standard EQ"?

Thanks for the app-note on miniDSP adaptive mode. We have that incorporated into our code already.

Thanks for all your help,

I meant normal BQ filter.

Yes, I thought of that too. I think I can string 5 BQs back to back and reload them with each of the settings that I need.
