Here is an early paper:
http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/oskin/thompson-micro2002.pdf
It is about general-purpose-computing of which audio-processing is a
subset. (BTW: Check out the aging references on the last page.)

Sorry i missed the start of this thread.
What is this patent about?
Do they claim a patent on using a GPU for numeric calculations, which
would be odd as a GPU is build for that,
Or is it about a special technic to get the data back from the video
card?
According to their home page, getting the data back is a big bottle
nek... so why not mixing down the tracks on the video-card, or is that
also patent pending?
regards,
Stefan
