Abstract
A copying logic block for, and a method of, programming an FPGA and a modular music synthesis processor incorporating the copying logic block or the method. In one embodiment, the copying logic block includes: (1) a block receiver that receives an instantiable logic block via a programming port of the FPGA and (2) a block instantiator, coupled to the block receiver, that creates multiple instantiations of the instantiable logic block within the FPGA in response to a command received via the programming port without requiring each of the multiple instantiations to enter the FPGA via the programming port.
