| Can anyone talk a bit about Microchip's dsPIC? How is it in term of performance, easy of implementation etc?

In my opinion it's very easy to use, software and hardware. I work at the first project with dsPIC. I use microchip C compiler and it's work fine, I have same problem with it but it solve by microchip team very quickly, I remember that I stay over 3 month to have I prototype board from microchip, but I think it change this..
What you plan to do with it?..

As I can see, Microchip dsPIC series is a mix between PIC and DSP, the result is very good. I can see that those dsPIC have much powerfull math instructions than TMS320 DSP, and have the very good functions of PIC like UART, SPI, AD, and more. The speed is only thing that is worst than Texas, dsPIC allows up to 30Mhz, versus TMS320 that are from 40MHz and up...
I think its not problem to synthetize voice on a dsPIC, you can make the PWM output to create analog signals, and implementing synthetize algoritms is not a problem using a C compiler. Speed is ok when you have samplerates of 8Khz, and 30MHz of clock, depending of complexity of your algorithm will consume more or less MIPS.
