snddriver: dsp-files > 512 words ?

The maximum size for an executable DSP-file (*.lod) wich could
be loaded to the dsp56k is limitied (by the snddriver) to 512
words.
Does anybody know how to download more than 512words?
We are using 25MHz-stations / 2.1

How about trying SNDBootDSP() instead.  The following description
suggests that you can load external RAM with it. Usage example of this
function is in Examples/Mandelbrot/DSPRecorder.m in Release 2.1, which
disappeared from 3.0 Release. 

From the DOC:

SNDBootDSP() boots the DSP using the DSP bootstrap image specified in
dspCore.  This allows you to load all internal RAM and all but the
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
top six words of external RAM on the DSP.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The owner and device ports
must have been previously acquired through SNDAcquire().  The format
of dspCore must SND_FORMAT_DSP core image should be in loadable ( .lod
 ) form, such as is created through the SNDReadDSPfile() function. 

See also man page for "sndconvert -d asoundfile.lod" which produces
a DSP image .snd file.
