I bought an SoundBlaster16 DSP card on the basic premise it had a DSP on it as I wanted to do some audio processing. Not sure if it actually did have a DSP IC in it as Creative never released any info on how to program it. The disappointment was made up for because the day after my card arrived the supplier sent a second one by mistake then the day following a third one. They never realised their mistake so I was able to sell the spare two so had some spare cash for more useful toys.

You mean the ASP/CSP right? :-) Because scammy Creative called 8052 microcontroller on all of their cards a DSP = Digital Sound Processors (not Digital Signal Processors!).

Card with real DSP was called ASP = Advanced Signal Processor or CSP = Creative Signal Processor. ST18932, a bad one but still a DSP. Enough performance to implement 14.4kbps modem.
