In order to understand the benefits and limitations of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) it is important to understand the distinction between '''Continuous''' and '''Discrete''' signal representations. In the Synth DIY world, much use is made of the terms '''Analog''' and '''Digital''' without any clear explanation of the very different assumptions that underpin those terms.

This all sounds very academic, of course, but is important to understand the fundamental differences between the two domains when making design decisions around sample rates, bit resolution and cost when selecting components for implementing DSP hardware.
