recommend a good book for beginner/crash course DSP?
I'm looking for recommendations for a good book on DSP. I am interested in learning more but my mathematics is fairly rusty and basic. So I guess I'm looking for something not heavy on maths (or at least with thorough explanations of the maths) and starting from the approximate beginnings. Is it even possible to get into this stuff (like gen) without a good background in mathematics?
Cheers

-you can read the full book online and it requires very litte foreknowledge in maths.
@David thanks that looks helpful and nice that its all free and jazz, will definitely be looking into that.
@personal_username I have seen this book but was kind of holding off on it as I believe it does not have sections on MAX 6 (and is pricey but worth it it would seem). I think I read that after the second book came out they would revise the first for MAX 6 so I might wait and see.
A classic for teaching the basis of math needed to at least roughly comprehend Discrete signal processing...
"An Introduction to the Mathematics of Digital Signal Processing, Part I: Algebra, Trigonometry, and the Most Beautiful Formula in Mathematics," Computer Music Journal 2(1) 38-47 (July 1978).
"An Introduction to the Mathematics of Digital Signal Processing, Part II: Sampling, Transforms, and Digital Filtering," Computer Music Journal 2(2) 38-60 (September 1978).
both reprinted in

ymmv, g'luck.....
